wallflower75 February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 The one shoo-in win of the night. I still think Gaga should've won a couple of years ago for "Til It Happens to You" (which got ROBBED by that ridiculous ho-hum James Bond song by...who was it again?), but "Shallow" was a pretty good song, too. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/33299-the-annual-academy-awards-general-discussion/page/154/#findComment-5080725
