^[I] "The Climb", written byJessi Alexander and Jon Mabe and featured inHannah Montana: The Movie, was originally nominated but was withdrawn byWalt Disney Records because it had not been written specifically for a film as the category's eligibility rules require. NARAS released a statement thanking Disney for its honesty and announcing that "The Climb" had been replaced by "All Is Love", with the fifth highest initial votes.[5]
