I have not considered what I would have put as Best Song but I do know there are many better pieces available- however I know mediocrity when I hear it which has been the case for the last several years. Just listen to what they offered up. The pieces are thin, poor in presentation and mediocre at best.

I agree with you 100%.

Take a look at the Wikipedia entry for the Best Original Song from the Academy Awards. What you will see is that the winners were pretty darn good (at least memorable) up until about 10 years ago. After that, not much. Not sure why. But when "An Inconvenient Truth" gets a Oscar for the best Documentary and the best Song you can suspect that politics just might have something to do with it.

yes you can be certain that is what is going on.

I hate America or lets blame America for everything wrong is the song most sung in Hollywood. I have worked here for more than 17 years. But try to understand when you are full of self hatred why would you not hate something that loves its self.
