An Inconvenient Truth wasn't the name of any nominated song. I guess you meant to say the name of one of Dreamgirls' songs. I was surprised it won too. I really think it was the nature of the divided competition that let it win. Huh? An Inconvenient Truth wasn’t the name of any nominated song.

To be honest, I was rather surprised that “I Need to Wake Up” won (I was expecting <em>An Inconvenient Truth</em> to win). I mean, I thought the song was awesome, but it faced strong competition. But you're right; I bet the division helped it. I’m sure the songs feel chagrined at getting themselves nominated hehe…

If only one of them were nominated, I think it would've won. I think those Dreamgirls songs shot themselves in the collective foot by having three of them nominated, thus splitting up the votes.
