How did this song come about? DIXSON:I’ve been submitting songs to Beyoncé and her team for awhile. I was pretty much shooting in the dark, hoping that somebody would hear something. And then I got the call to do the film and it became apparent to me that I was doing something that she liked. Had you seen the film before you started writing? No, bu...
How did you participate in the story process as the film was being developed? My job is to raise my hand and let this room of animators and incredibly creative people know what music can do. Like, “Here’s what I think these songs can cover.” “Here’s where I can run with the ball and get some real estate.” Your job as the musical dramatist in this r...
Note: The following was edited from answers that Van Morrison gave to Nile Rodgers on Feb. 28 during a Songwriters Hall of Fame virtual event celebrating the nominees for best original song. When were you first approached to write a song for the movie? The first phone call, [director] Ken [Branagh] called me and explained it was his story… he sent ...

The nomination itself is such a giant win because [we were competing with] the biggest artists and the biggest movies — and here’s my little movie and my song. It’s like the little engine...
What was your approach to the movie? Each of [director] Adam [McKay’s] projects has its own unique, nuanced tonal equation. On Don’t Look Up, the big question was what is that absurd flavor? The first thing I figured out was actually the opposite of that. I figured out this feeling of the sound of a reverence for science and knowledge and logic, an...
Dunegot 10 nominations. What does it mean to have so many of your peers recognized? That the way we worked was absolutely recognized with the one exception — it would have been nice for somebody to recognize that Denis [Villeneuve] has directed this picture. It didn’t quite direct itself because at the end of the day the collegial process does need...
What was your reaction to your nomination? They announced early so I thought, “If my phone doesn’t ring, I can keep sleeping.” Luckily, I was woken up by my boss, [Disney’s] Tom MacDougall, who called to say, “We’ve done it. You’ve done it.” Lin was texting me, “Let’s go!” Everyone was excited that we got three nominations. What are your thoughts o...
What was your reaction to your nomination? It was very surprising for me, because it’s a Spanish film — it’s not so easy to be recognized with such big films around. It was one of the best experiences for me doing music, so at the same time, I hoped it could happen. What were you trying to accomplish with this score? The film makes a path from chil...
How did you learn of your Oscar nomination? I heard about it on Pitchforkvia Twitter. It’s very flattering of course — there’s a sense of people being excited for me, which is kind of them. I feel rather detached from the fuss, but am still very happy to see the film’s music, and the people that played it, getting attention. This is your second nom...
