I've always wondered how it would be like when a male skater skates to Bells of Moscow. And now I think he would be able to do that, conveying its depth.
LOL... considering Patrick's popularity in Russia, I'd thought they'd rather hide their bells and not letting him anywhere near it. Although I am certainly for it, just out of morbid interest ;P
I like the idea of comedy performances, it very risky but rewarding but may be difficult. Comedy is hard to do. Problem is the jarring effect, he has always done serious classic stuff, does Patrick have the personality and charisma to carry it off for the audience to warm up to him effortlessly? I got the feeling these days watching him, half of the audience are holding their breath hoping he'd fall multiple times so they can go complaining about it, the other half of of them are hoping he wouldn't fall, so no one can go and complain about it (The judges probably belong to the latter). So he need a strong transitional program with a powerful enough theme - a 'King Maker' sort of program to reign everyone in line acknowledging his greatness, before experimenting the maestro jester stuff, at the moment seems to have reserved for Amodio, and maybe Daisuke if he ever feels like it, that guy can make anything work. Although Patrick tries in his Mannish Boy gala program, it still feels a bit awkward imo because we are not used to seeing him that way. Ofcourse I could be wrong, I mean even Lambiel went through that Red Cat phase experimenting with comedy, Plushenko Sex Bomb, but that is a bit extreme. "I wanna be loved by you" Patrick in drag? Booo-Boop-a-doop?
