Oscar voters have a long-established devotion to songs from Disney musicals: Last year’s winner was “Remember Me,” from “Coco,” and before that there were ditties from “Frozen,” “Toy Story 3,” “Tarzan,” “The Lion King,” “Beauty and the Beast,” the list goes on (and on). And with “Mary Poppins Returns,” of course, they’re being reminded of Disney’s beloved original, which spawned an Oscar winner in 1964 with the Sherman brothers’ classic “Chim Chim Cher-ee.”
