Best Original Song - "God Help the Outcast" - The Hunchback of Notre Dame

...or another Hunchback fan.

I was a huge Hunchback fan when it came out. I've since cooled because it's an incredibly uneven film teetering between rather astonishing drama and goofy kid shit. I prefer it to pretty much any New Disney Classic save for Beauty and the Beast, and aside from tepid attempts at softening "Quasi" with his gargoyle buddies, but, aside from some obvious attempts at making Victor Hugo kid friendly, the songs are uniformly the weakest of the New Disney Classics. Alan Menken's score is one of his strongest in my mind, and of the songs, the "Heaven's Light/Hellfire" number (more the latter) and the stunning opening number "The Bells of Notre Dame" stand out.

I don't much care for the Bette Midler number "God Help the Outcasts" nor the All-4-One number "Someday", but I read that only in the late stages of the production did they replace the latter with the former. I think had they not, it might have received a Best Song nomination.

I don't know by what stretch of the imagination Patty Duke could possibly be considered as a Best Actress candidate for Valley of the Dolls, the most wretched performance ever given by a then (fairly) recent Oscar winner.
