Notes[edit]

  1. Nino Rota was nominated for The Godfather in 1972, but the nomination was rescinded after it was discovered that Rota reused music from the 1958 film Fortunella. The Academy's entire music branch revoted for a fifth nominee. They could renominate Rota for The Godfather or select one of the five other shortlisted scores. Sleuth received the most votes and became the fifth nominee.
  2. Following the disqualification of Freddie's Dead" from Super Fly in 1972, "Silent Running" from Silent Running replaced it on the shortlist.
  3. "Freddie's Dead" from Super Fly was shortlisted in 1972, but was later deemed ineligible because only an instrumental version without lyrics is used in the film.
  4. "Remembering" from England Made Me was shortlisted in 1973, but was later deemed ineligible because the music and lyrics were only audible over the end credits which violated the rules of the 46th Academy Awards.
  5. Following the disqualification of "Remembering" from England Made Me in 1973, "Are You Man Enough" from Shaft in Africa replaced it on the shortlist.
  6. Following the disqualification of "The Love I Have for You" from Remember My Name in 1978, "Children of Sanchez" from The Children of Sanchez replaced it on the shortlist.
  7. "The Love I Have for You" from Remember My Name was shortlisted in 1978, but was later deemed ineligible because the song had been written at least thirty years earlier.
  8. A tie resulted in eight finalists.
