Well, you beat me to the punch, but I'm glad somebody brought it up. And in case anybody cares, the nominations for best song are:BEAUTIFUL STRANGER - Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me
HOW CAN I NOT LOVE YOU - Anna and the King
SAVE ME - Magnolia
WHEN SHE LOVED ME - Toy Story 2
YOU'LL BE IN MY HEART- Tarzan
As far as songs go, I think "When She Loved Me" should win. It's one of few songs that actually furthers the story. Of course, I won't feel too bad it "You'll Be in My Heart" wins, because I liked the song and the film.For score, what's the deal with NINE nominations? There must have been a LOT of ties in the nominations. I'm really glad to see "Legend of 1900" up there. It's really a fantastic score. Of course, the film was only in limited release, and didn't get a lot of play, so it's not going to win.

I find it quite humorous that with all the hype surrounding Star Wars: Episode I, it wasn't nominated for one GG award. I would have at least thought Williams' score would be up for something.

Well, I didn't see any of the films nominated in the score category, so I can't tell you if these scores are better than the ones I heard. But I do wish at least one of the scores I liked would have made it.Perhaps the nominators just didn't go out and see the movies I saw. Of the 10 best pictures (combining drama and comedy/musical) I only saw two of the nominated pictures. Only Toy Story 2 would have made my top 10 list -- and not for the score, either. The music was nice, but I'm not going to buy the soundtrack.
I guess I'll just vote with my wallet.

I'm all for Morricone and Thomas Newman. I'd be happy if either one of them won. I haven't heard Nyman's 'End of the Affair' yet.
