The MTV Movie Award for Best Song From a Movie was first given out in 1992 for Bryan Adams' "Everything I Do I Do It For You" from Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. The award was last given out in 1999 and was replaced with Best Musical Sequence, but made a return in 2009. It was then retired afterwards. It later returned in 2012 renamed as Best Music. In 1996, Batman Forever and Waiting to Exhale each had two songs nominated in this category, with the latter winning for "Sittin' Up In My Room". Bryan Adams, Bush and Whitney Houston have each won the Best Song honor from two nominations.
