    I was just about to say the exact same thing. This song really sucks.

    yeah, thought the same thing. The academy is clueless when it comes to music, they shouldn't allow multiple songs from one movie.

    back when "Man of the Hour" was eligible, the winner was the rap song that year, it wasn't even close to a good song, and the other songs were weak.

    Oscars are generally pretty weak in regards to chosing songs.

    Yep, I agree. I had to leave the room it was so irritating. :( Some must like it, but I sure don't know who. :)

    haha... i said to my roommate as i was watching that performance: "just wait til i check the PJ message boards... theres gonna be so much bitchin"

    seriously tho... that song was terrible... the song from august rush was a pretty good performance... i still hope "falling slowly" wins

    the second song was alright... but that last thing i just endured..... 4 or 5 more seconds and i would have suffered a self inflicted bullet wound.

    if falling slowly doesnt win it will be a serious shame
    {if (work != 0) {
    work = work + 1;
    sleep = sleep - work * 10;}
    else if (work >= 0) {
    reality.equals(false);
    work = work +1;
    }system("pause");
    return 0;}

    "Happy Working Song" is a fuckin' terrible song. The only award that song should have been in contention for is a Razzie!
