Who picked "The Bath Song" (if you don't mind telling)?

I mean had I been the judge on this round I would have seriously considered picking "The Bath Song"... You can find academic studies of the philosophical underpinnings of the Walking Song or the interaction of mediaval and romantic imagery and verse on the Song of Boromir - or you can hear composers making their versions of the Lament of Gandalf or the song of the ents and entwives... but where is all the fuzz about the Bath Song?

Well, the Tolkien Ensemble has a nice version of the Bath Song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVf_Vgr7kVk
But that's just one interpretation and beside the point anyways. I'm curious about the reasons for choosing it and just who picked it.
