Oscars 2017 Nominations: 15 Shocks & Snubs
10. Snub: "Drive It Like You Stole It" (Best Original Song - Sing Street)
The snubbing of Sing Street's insanely catchy "Drive It Like You Stole It" seems all the more ridiculous when you consider that two far less likely (and frankly, far less good) songs made the cut: Trolls' "Can't Stop the Feeling" and "The Empty Chair" from documentary Jim: The James Foley Story.
It's hard to be mad at the latter case because it's such a small film that snagged a nod against the odds, but the bubblegum pop nonsense of Trolls? Really?
There's no accounting for taste, especially when it comes to music, but Sing Street really deserved the recognition here, even if La La Land has this category sewn up either way.
