My Comments:

All the winners definietely deserved it and there wasn't one winner that one could say that the losers were much better then them. And I'm personally excited because my countryman Jorge Drexler from Uruguay won Best Original Song with "Al Otro Lado del Rio" for The Motorcycle Diaries. I couldn't be happier.
