Onward
Over the Moon
A Shaun the Sheep Movie: Farmageddon

Best Original Song
"Fight For You," Judas and the Black Messiah – Music by D'Mile and H.E.R.; lyric by H.E.R. and Tiara Thomas

Who I want to/think should win: Who cares? This category is only worth talking about when songs are integrated into the movie and not just played over the credits (like “Shallow” from A Star Is Born). I do like Leslie Odom Jr. as Sam Cooke in One Night in Miami though.
