‘Peaches’ From ‘Super Mario Bros. Movie’ Is Eligible for Oscars Best Original Song (EXCLUSIVE)1

Is Peaches from The Super Mario Bros. Movie one of the first Oscars original song contenders of the year?

The ultimate power ballad, sung by Jack Black as the evil Bowser, will be eligible to submit for best original song consideration at the Oscars, Universal has confirmed to Variety.

Peaches is all about Bowsers unrequited love. And the subject of his adoration? Princess Peach (voiced by Anya Taylor Joy), who is the ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom. The song is co-written by Black, the films directors Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic, as well as Eric Osmond and John Spiker.

In the movie, Bowser is sitting at his piano belting out the ballad. He sings, Peach, youre so cool And with my star were gonna rule. Peach, understand, Im gonna love you til the very end. Princess Peach, at the end of the line, Ill make you mine. The chorus is Bowser hilariously singing Peaches in various keys. He continues, Mario, Luigi, and a Donkey Kong, too. A thousand troops of Koopas couldnt keep me from you.

Since the music video was released on April 7, it has received over 5 million views on YouTube and is currently No. 2 on the trending page for music. Watch a clip from the movie below, released by Universal Monday morning.
