On the Other Hand (Memo to the Oscar's Music Director)

[madrobins]

Here's a thought: why not use old "best song" winners to play the winners up to the podium. Or at dead least, use music from the film they're winning for. And please don't try to be all relevant and stuff, because your idea of relevance is thirty years old and was stodgy even then. "I Am Woman" for Kathryn Bigelow? Really? Condescending? What would you have played for Lee Daniels, who is both African American and gay? A medley of "Shaft" and "YMCA"? Jeez.
