It really seems an injustice to Diane more than anything. How has such an acclaimed song-writer been nominated eight times, but never won the award? It doesn't seem right, really. She's obviously a very committed and talented woman - I think it's almost wrong for the Academy not to recognise this. 

I'd even argue Gaga's loss is an injustice to herself, too. After her iconic Oscar performance last year (which, arguably, brought the Oscars back to pop-cultural, mass relevance), it is disappointing that they wouldn't, in turn, make her a winner. I'm not saying that anyone who performs well on the show deserves an Oscar, not at all - but I do believe that Gaga's performance was more than just a 'good performance'. There isn't one major pop artist who could do what Gaga did that night; and not just vocally. 

And Samantha Smith just tweaked the song written mostly by his co-writer and now he has an Oscar. F*** the universe.
