So I guess it's safe to say that The Prayer was written/created specifically for Quest for Camelot, otherwise it would not have been eligible for the Best Original Song category at the Oscars. The work must be recorded for use in the film prior to any other usage including public performance or exploitation through any media whatsoever. The work must be the result of a creative interaction between the filmmaker(s) and the composer(s) or songwriter(s) who have been engaged to work directly on the film. The work must be specifically created for the eligible feature-length motion picture. So I looked up the rules for that category for the Oscars and it says: "An original song consists of words and music, both of which are original and written specifically for the film." The song was nominated for an Oscar and won a Golden Globe for best original song so that has to mean it was from the movie originally. I was kind of confused about this also so I dug up some info.

It is used a lot in weddings (during the church ceremony). The song is called "The Prayer" and as far as I know, was originally sung as a duet between Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli. My mother is a huge Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli fan.

This means that every single sound you hear is made by the human voice.I have never seen this movie, but I know the Prayer very well. Together, their voices beautifully combine to produce the most amazing arrangements that are all performed a cappella.

Since that moment, Pentatonix has become a household name with viral performances such as ‘Mary Did You Know' and ‘Hallelujah.'
