Several music critics suggested that Stevens would receive award nominations for his work on the track . Larry Fitzmaurice from '' Vice '' predicted that both " Mystery of Love " and " Visions of Gideon " were strong enough for Golden Globe nominations . '' Entertainment Tonight '' s Stacy Lambe wrote that they " make Stevens a dark horse contender for the Oscars ’ Best Original Song category " . Glenn Whipp from '' Los Angeles Times '' agreed and called it a " good bet " for being a contender . At the 23rd Critics ' Choice Awards , " Mystery of Love " received a nomination for Best Song , but lost to " Remember Me " from the 2017 animated film '' Coco '' . The song was up in the same category at awards from the Georgia Film Critics Association , but also lost to " Remember Me " . In the Best Song/Recording Created for a Film category at the Guild of Music Supervisors Awards , " Mystery of Love " was selected as one of the five nominees . At the 90th Academy Awards , both " Mystery of Love " and " Visions of Gideon " were shortlisted as two of seventy contenders for the Best Original Song category . The former choice was ultimately nominated and is Stevens ' first nomination in the category . '' Albany Times Union '' s David Bauder called " Mystery of Love " the " outlier among the nominees , at least stylistically " . Ultimately , the award went to " Remember Me " from '' Coco '' . " Mystery of Love " also received a nomination for Best Song Written for Visual Media at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards , thus becoming Stevens 's first Grammy Award nomination . It won the David di Donatello for Best Original Song in March 2019
