For the actual Original Song nominees they tend to perform as written. We Don’t Talk About Bruno wasn’t nominated, it was just an exhibition ratings ploy and they tried to do some kind of remix that really sucked. I don’t think the RRR songwriters would allow them to do that with Naatu Naatu, nor would the producers want to since it’s an actual nominee.

They had Santana and Antonio Banderas play Jorge Drexler’s song in 2005 because of ratings. Drexler went on to win, fuck the Oscars
