Awards eligibility

I am astonished what force drives the jury to give awards to the song against the rules.

As for the Academy Award for Best Original Song - the article here says songs that rely on sampled or reworked material ... are also ineligible. Oh well, isn't that clear that the song You've Really Got a Hold on Me could be the inspiration? (Maybe unintentional, but the first tones are clearly the same, although with a little different phrasing.)

As for the Oscar, the dispute was not because of the year 2006 CD, but because it was played on concerts and recorded multiple times from 2002 (!) and it was included in the movie Kráska v nesnázích released in 2006 (see - or better hear :-) - the trailer: http://www.trailerfan.com/movie/kraska_v_nesnazich/trailer). And now, when an evidence from the year 2002 is found, the author simply comes up saying that he "talked about the film" in 2002 (what a coincidence ...) Ignoring the other disputies than just the CD from 2006 is clearly a violation of NPOV.

Please, somebody sum up the other sources and put it into the article. I am unable to do so without breaking NPOV, because I am pretty pissed off by the lies and ignorance of the facts around this song. I do not wish anything bad to Glen and Markéta, they desire admiration for being able to address so many people, but the song is not worth bending the reality just not to spoil the pretty picture some people painted around it. --62.40.79.66 (talk) 19:57, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
