Programs for Duhamel & Radford next year?

Hehe but R/K are one of a kind

I'll re-watch their polka. Haven't seen it in a long time. I fear a lot will attempt valse triste this year but I doubt many will do as great as a job as R/K.

That's why the Rahkamo / Kokko clip is instructive.

Picture it as she has had too much to drink, and he is the (perhaps a bit stuffy) designated driver, tasked with getting her home safe. Or perhaps Ieva's dad/older brother/ uncle...

And the audience will surely clap through the whole thing.

This makes me very happy! :yahoo:

Valse Triste is my favorite piece of classical music and it frankly doesn't get used enough. Hoping Evgenia or Yulia uses it. :yes:

Rahkamo and Kokko were definitely a team in a million. One of my all time favorites!

How about Lapland Polka for the SP:

like Rahkamo & Kokko. (do watch this one if you have never seen it! Great fun!)

Or something to Ieva's Polka: (Ievan Polkka)...but it has got to be the Loituma version, not Vocaloid:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4om1rQKPijI

I like these songs. But if they ever did do Ieva's Polka their performance might go viral...due to that whole leek spin :biggrin:

Any rock music suggestions?

dorispulaski · Apr 20, 2016

Some Finnish Rock Tunes

Viral would be good!

Hurriganes, "Get On" (a Finnish band singing in English)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGCviZAdxeY

Hanoi Rocks, a Finnish band with some international cred, is popular in Japan.
Here's their "Day Late, Dollar Short"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XNqHGSr-es

Joutsenlaulu by Yö - not sung in English
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cx7ykE6myo0

Not knowing the relationships towards each other, of the countries of Scandinavia (only been to Helsinki once), would something with an ABBA feel (even though Swedish) be pleasing or not to Finns?

oh please. as if everyone needs to express their joy the same way... eric is calmer. that's all. you think that S/K express their feelings the same ? What about S/H? Most often the lady is the one with the big smiles and the man is more serious... so actually, perhaps they are just like the other pairs you like so much

Who cares about s/k? They are losers who didnt even medal and their careers may be over.

Osmond4gold said:
You mean like Tat & Maxim, trying to do a traditional dance they know nothing about, but attempting to be persuasive in their approach? What an authentic experience that was, which I would equate to a morning ritual.

Bravo...great "acting", while in reality, knowing nothing. Worked for me! :noshake:

Who cares about v/t either? Why bring them up at all. They are totally irrelevent now and their careers are in the past. Not the future in all likelihood. Can't d/r be criticized. Is their flawless perfect so pronounced in every way?!

Me squared. Loved them. SO inventive. In a class of their own.

calica · Apr 20, 2016

I'm bad to think about concrete music for a program. I would like some rock Spanish but only to understand it :biggrin:

4everchan · Apr 20, 2016

it's a beautiful piece for sure... I love it too... but after R/K and V/M... who can truly do it? Yulia... probably....

I hear a Troll but I will ignore it! Don't Feed A Troll...Don't Feed A Troll!

So why did you quote my comment? The facts are clear.

sometimes, there are stories like in very classical ballet but more than often, especially with modern dancing, there is NO story

"story" is not acting.

4everchan said:
why would I blame D/R to skate a modern athletic style on a pop song? It would actually be ridiculous to have it acted out.

No it wouldn't be ridiculous to have it acted out, what makes you say that? "Acting it out" what they were trying to do with it, at times, through their movement and expression. Not their main concern of course but there was an intent and that intent needs to remain important in the sport and be given its due by the competitors.

Osmond4gold · Apr 20, 2016

That post reminds me of other song possibilities we might want to consider; from Frozen, "Let It Go", or another by Frankie Goes to Hollywood, "Relax", or that Country and Western classic, "How Can I Miss You If You Won't Go Away?" :dev2:

thank you... saves me from writing

There are a lot of comic C&W songs...

For example, there's a song by Chris Ledoux , "We've Got a Five Dollar Fine for Whining"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ffr-G6abbxA

Or "Dropkick Me Jesus Through the Goalposts of Life" by Bobby Bare
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsWg0bt9kp4

not that I would recommend any team to skate to them.

4everchan · Apr 21, 2016

in canadian dollars, that's only 4 dollars.
