It's just about the Olys which I inadvertenly left out. Many skaters mentioned were about favorites or countrymen. One of the bullets in the PC scores which we really never talk about, is the Character of the Music. That's not necessarily the character of the story or the use of ballet arms. In other words, did a particular skater fulfill all the demands listed in the PC requirements of Ice Dance, and then how well did that skater put herself into the music to make it hers. Think the Duchesnays and Kwan's Concerto Aranjez.I don't fully understand "get to you emotionally" part. Many here seem to be including skaters who excite them.
For me, skaters who inspire me certain emotion that leaves me teary-eyed include Michelle Kwan, Matt Savoie, Elena and Anton, G/P.
And there are skaters who leave me awestruck like Sasha, Yuna, Mirai, Meryl and Charie, Yags, and Midori Ito.
Lambiel could do both on his very best.
