Remembering The Beach Boys' Pet Sounds: For The Record

David Byrne, Stephanie Hsu and Son Lux brought a fresh energy to the 2023 Oscars wiith their spectacular, zany performance of their nominated song "This Is a Life" from Everything Everywhere All At Once — clad in white, with raccoon imagery overhead.

Up for Best Original Song, the nomination for "This Is a Life" is one of the whopping 11 nods for The Daniels' directed genre-bending film Everything Everywhere All At Once. Hsu is nominated for Best Actress in a Supporting Role, and creative trio Son Lux is up for Best Original Score.

Ryan Lott, Byrne and Mitski helmed the music of "This Is a Life"; the lyrics are by Lott and Byrne.
