“Coming Home” was performed by Gwyneth Paltrow for the original motion picture soundtrack and feature film.
Released by RCA Nashville, the Country Strong soundtrack is currently one of the nation’s best-selling albums, perched at No. 2 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart last week and at No. 6 on the all-genre Billboard 200.
The 83rd Academy Awards will air Sunday, February 27, on ABC.
I cannot believe that Gwen sang, let alone, sang well enough to earn an Oscar nomination.
Great Job Gwen. I do like the title song better both the lyric and the words.
