Worst Musical Numbers
The Enchanted songs

Everyone loved Enchanted, its music (including the three nominated tunes), and its sparkling star Amy Adams — so why did the music translate so poorly to the Oscars stage? Adams gave a fine rendition of ''Happy Working Song'' (at left), but something seemed missing on the bare stage; where were the cleaning cockroaches? Couldn't they have at least given her a mop as a prop? Adams didn't even get to sing the other two songs (Kristin Chenoweth, at right, sang ''That's How You Know,'' and Jon McLaughlin crooned ''So Close''), but maybe she was lucky, since both were the kind of large-scale, elaborately choreographed, gloriously awful musical numbers of the sort that have been scarce at recent Oscar ceremonies.
