The Goya Award for Best Original Song (Spanish: Premio Goya a la mejor canción original) is one of the Goya Awards, Spain's principal national film awards. The award was first presented at the fifteenth edition in 2001 with the first winner being the song "Fugitivas", written by Manuel Malou, Natboccara and JJ Chaleco for Miguel Hermoso's film of the same name.
Spanish singer Leiva is the only person who has won the award more than once with two wins: in 2017 for "La llamada" from the musical Holy Camp! and in 2022 for "Sintiéndolo mucho" from the documentary Sintiéndolo Mucho. Composer Roque Baños holds the record of most nominations in the category with four nominations, followed by Joaquín Sabina and Luis Ivars, each with three nominations.
Directors David Trueba, Rodrigo Cortés, Emilio Aragón, Paula Ortiz, Pablo Berger, Paco León, Paul Urkijo, Isaki Lacuesta and Antón Álvarez, all have been nominated as writers of co-writers for songs from their films, with Berger winning the award in 2012 for the song "No te puedo encontrar" from his film Blancanieves and Álvarez winning in 2025 for the song "Los almendros" from the documentary film The Flamenco Guitar of Yerai Cortés.
For the 39th ceremony, the Academy of Cinematographic Arts and Sciences of Spain introduced a modification consisting of the requirement of a declaration signed by the producers accrediting the non-submission of AI-generated compositions.
