If anyone has seen the movie Coco, the song "Remember Me" is enough to bring tears to your eyes. That is the song that I think should win.

Stevie's Book of Henry song is lovely but I don't think enough people saw the film for it to be nominated. Sadly this wasn't the case with The Greatest Showman...
I think Mystery of Love from Call Me By Your Name should win. There is a montage in the movie set to the song that’s beautiful. However I Think Remember Me will win. The song is sort of important to the plot of the movie and it’s also strikes an emotional chord in the movie. I will say this. I thought both movies were great and I know those songs have to be the front runners. I have seen a lot of movies and the music is especially important in these movies. The Greatest Showman got crappy reviews too. Doubt anything from it will win.
