Analysis
Well, this is a year of firsts. For the first time, a song from a documentary won an Oscar. Secondly, a film with three song nominations failed to win in the category. The votes were split and the fourth place song won. I guess that says something about Cars's poor song. That's what happens when you try to recreate the sentimentality of Toy Story 2.
