Why it didn't deserve the win: Yes, “Norma Rae” was an “important” movie but name me one person, other than songwriters David Shire and Normal Gimbel, who can sing “It Goes Like It Goes.” Now find me one person who can’t sing at least part of “Rainbow Connection” from “The Muppet Movie.” I rest my case.
Better choice: “Rainbow Connection” (“The Muppet Movie”)
