One Category at a Time: Original Song

I seriously debated whether or not it was even worth doing an analysis of this category. Year in and year out, the music branch has forced us to question their eyebrow-raising taste when it comes to songs, showing an explicit aversion to high profile artists and critically praised music. It's always been a nagging point, but this year they've taken it to the next level. This year they've turned themselves into an outright laughing stock
(I literally laughed out loud when I read the nominees) by selecting a pathetic two songs from 39 eligible options. They're not even going to perform the songs on the show, as that would only compound the embarrassment.
