Of course. but, as an extreme example, say, Wall-E gets 34% O Saya gets 33% Jai Ho gets 33% So, God forbid, Wall-E wins even when ARR and SDM actually got a total of double votes than this one. The point was that when two tracks are from same album, by same composer, the voters don't actually bother which one wins as long as any one of them wins, so they vote for any of them randomly. But, if only one of an album's or a composer's track is there, voters would have voted for that one only. Whatever. Two nominations in a "debut" is a great achievement. -- Rawat ------------------------------------ Are you searching for a reason, to be kind? <b> Explore, Experience, Enjoy A.R.Rahman - The Man, The Music, The Magic.
