IF THIS SONG WINS, BECAUSE YOU TRANSLATE INTO ITALIAN BECAUSE THE FILM IS IN ITALIAN, IT WILL BE THE FOURTH TIME A FOREIGN SONG HAS WON AT THE OSCARS. WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO YOU? >> IT'S A BIG RESPONSIBILITY. IT'S MY HONOR AS AN ITALIAN ARTIST AND WOMAN TO SHARE THIS MOMENT WITH MY COUNTRY, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE THE SONG IS IN ITALIAN. I THINK THIS IS THE VERY FIRST TIME WITH THE WHOLE LYRICS IN ITALIAN, SO MAKES ME FEEL SO PROUD. IT'S AN HONOR TO BE PART OF THIS MOVIE, WHICH IS A BEAUTIFUL ONE. IT'S SO IMPORTANT, THE MESSAGE HERE, THAT I WANT TO SPREAD ALL OVER THE WORLD. WITH DEE DIANE, WE'RE FEELING GOOSE BUMPS EVERY TIME WE'RE TALKING ABOUT OUR SONG AND OUR BEAUTIFUL MOMENT WE ARE SHARING TOGETHER. >> IT'S A GREAT FILM AND THE SONG IS REALLY MOVING. HOW DID YOU GET TO DO IT, DIANE? I THINK YOU HAD TO APPROACH WAS IT EDUARDO PONTE? >> I SAID IS IT OKAY IF I CALL EDUARDO, THE DIRECTOR? I'M NOT SHY ABOUT THAT. IF I HEAR ABOUT SOMETHING THAT EXCITES ME LIKE THIS MOVIE. I REACHED OUT TO EDUARDO. HE SENT ME THE SCRIPT. I LOVED IT. IT TOUCHED MY HEART AND MADE ME CRY. I KEPT SEEING THE WORD "SEEN." YOU HAVE THESE CHARACTERS WHO THE WORLD DOESN'T SEE AT ALL. THEY'RE CAST OFF FROM SOCIETY AND THEY'RE THROWN TOGETHER. THEY DON'T EVEN SEE EACH OTHER EXCEPT THROUGH LOVE AND UNDERSTANDING AND REALLY SEEING WITH YOUR HEART, NOT YOUR EYES. THEY DO UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER AND THEY BECOME A FAMILY. LAURA, YOU WERE SAYING THAT TOO, LIKE THAT'S THE BEAUTY OF THIS MOVIE. THE MESSAGE OF THE SONG BECAUSE -- AND IT GOES BEYOND THE MOVIE BECAUSE THIS MESSAGE, SO MANY PEOPLE DON'T FEEL SEEN RIGHT NOW IN THE WORLD, YOU KNOW, AND FEEL INVISIBLE. THIS IS A SONG FOR THEM. THE SIMPLE PHRASE "I WANT YOU TO KNOW YOU'RE SEEN" IS SO POWERFUL BECAUSE WE ALL LONG TO BE SEEN AND BE LOVED.
