Oscar-Nomics: Best Song Prediction

Hey Guys, I know I have been bad about posting, my computer crashed and I have to borrow my parent's computer in order to catch up on things. I was going to post a blog on my predictions/thoughts on the oscar nominations, but alas time got away from me. What I decided to do instead is march on with my predictions as the wise AwardsNazi has and offer my predictions one category at a time. I thought I would start off with a ridiculously light category, best song, and the nominees are:

Man or Muppet (The Muppets): Music and Lyrics by Bret McKenzie

Real in Rio (Rio): Sérgio Mendes, Carlinhos Brown & Siedah Garret

The fact that there were only two nominees is really, really weird and the choices they made were almost as weird. I have no problem with these songs making the list, I'm just surprised they were the only ones making the list. Personally, I would've had The Living Proof from The Help or Life's a Happy Song (my personal choice for the win in my opinion) from the Muppets. I am pulling for Mckenzie in this category for multiple reasons. First off, I am a huge fan of his work, and he truly brought his all to this film. Again, I don't know if I would've picked Man or Muppet, but everything is pointing towards it winning.
Real in Rio is a possible spoiler, and I am not just saying this because its the only other nominee. It is a truly colorful song, and really gave the film its spirit. This movie's been relatively quiet on the Awards front, so seeing it making the list was a rather surprise, though I do welcome it. It definitely has the feel of an Oscar nominee, unfortunately I think it lacks the ability to be a true Oscar winner. Really, I don't see either as a true Oscar winner, but I have been pulling for the Muppets to win this category, if any. That is why I am picking the Muppets, but I am so disappointed with this category I won't be surprised if I am wrong. I promise you this won't be the last time I will express disappointment with my other categories as I continue my predictions in the coming days and weeks.

Winner: Man or Muppet
Missing Nominee: Life's a Happy Song
