Elton John won Best Original Song at the Oscars on Sunday night for '(I'm Gonna) Love Me Again' from the Rocketman biopic.

It beat songs from Toy Story 4 (Randy Newman), Frozen II ('Into the Unknown'), Breakthrough (Diane Warren) and Harriet (Cynthia Erivo).

It's Elton John's second time winning the award. He previously won for 'Can You Feel the Love Tonight' from The Lion King.

But did this new song deserve the honour?

John Caddell and Larissa Nolan discussed in our music slot, as well as looking ahead to gigs from Beck and Supergrass and new releases from The Strokes and Niall Horan.
