Really? Is it on your car's radio or something?

 

But it's seriously not getting a nom.

I hear it everywhere I go in public lol

 

I actually like the song even if it is such an obvious "feel good pop song that plays over the end credits of an animated movie" track.

It's too happy for me. And I don't mean that like I'm some downer, I just think it feels like it's manufactured to make me feel good.

If any kids movie gets in somehow it'll be Moana. Even if it's not as critically lauded as Zootopia I'm pretty sure at least one of its songs will have more interesting lyrics than "I'll keep on making those same mistakes...I'll keep on making them every day...Those new mistakes"

I think everybody's predicting at least one nomination for Moana.

 

BTW, I just found out that no movie can have more than 2 songs nominated. That rule came in 2008.

I think the nominations will look like this

 

  1. Song from La La Land
  2. Another Song from La La Land
  3. Song from Moana
  4. Song from Sing Street
  5. Undetermined

#5 could be a song from Moana or Sing Street. Or maybe "Try Everything" from Zootopia or "Can't Stop the Feeling" from Trolls.

I could see "Nobody Knows" by The Lumineers from Pete's Dragon sneaking into that 5th spot.
