This answer is wrong:

> [@](#):

The song’s title is ‘One Of Us’ (this was the first song I thought of as well, but I didn’t put it down because of this).

And that’s the beauty of this game - even wrong answers count - but only if someone matches you. Which this one won’t, unfortunately. (Mine, of course! ;))

Hey, there was a movie called [_Seventh Heaven_](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0018379/) – it featured the first Oscar-winning performance for Best Actress in a Leading Role (Janet Gaynor), and the director and writer also received Academy Awards.

[Quote=bluecanary]  
The song’s title is ‘One Of Us’ (this was the first song I thought of as well, but I didn’t put it down because of this).  
[/quote]

My sentiments as well. If she came across this thread, I wonder if Joan Osborne would be more delighted that so many people thought of her song, or bothered by the fact that its title is so often misquoted…

8 out of 10 top answers, one of the two remaining was the second top answer, and I _still_ only got 7th. Man, these are getting competitive!

Well, you can get so used to being in, or near, the last place that you get jealous when some other misfit sneaks in there and steals that spot from you! 😉
