After 13 Oscar nominations with no wins, cinematographer Roger Deakins became a sort of Internet meme as one of our most popular, “always a bridesmaid” craftsmen. But what about American songwriting legend Diane Warren? Perhaps you have listened to some of the music she composed, including the Oscar nominated classic hits “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing” and “Because You Loved Me.”

Warren is now on her twelfth Oscar nomination without a single win, this time for the beautifully touching melody she composed for the Sophia Loren film, The Life Ahead, entitled “Io Si (Seen).” When your composing credits include the long list of timeless tunes that Warren has amassed, “overdue” is an understatement.
