No! Leo voiceover again? Dying in this one too? Radionova should have warned him.

Did he get inspiration from Jorik, Elena, or both?

Moore-Towers and Marinaro?

 

[VIETgrlTerifa]

Don't forget Han Yan who used Leo voiceovers in Romeo & Juliet.

 

[LRK]

Who knew Leo voiceovers would become a warhorse....

The possibilities seem endless. May I request some Matt Damon next

Or Matthew McConaughey?

Jordan Moeller.

 

[Ice Dance]

Jordan Moeller.

It was a joke. M-T&M did the most atrocious modern R&J with vocals last season, IMO. If he is copying someone, that R&J would be a more direct comparison than either of the Titanic performers listed above.

Someone with a really strong voice to scare the crowd... A Star Wars program with James Earl Jones? "Luke... I am your father."

But it seems that people want Leo or no one...

Mao's new SP and FS will be Ritual Dance by Manuel de Falla.

EX will be, as said before, Bach's Sarabande and Bouree from his Cello Suite. And from the description "Bouree I/II", I suppose it is Cello Suite no.3.

In addition, the SP one will be the Piano version, the FS will be the orchestral version.

I feel like coaches need to start banning warhorses to encourage their student to show more creativity in music choices (Cause I'm assuming the skaters are the ones making the music choices...).

I thought the coaches/choreographers had more say than the skater when it came to music choices. Lori Nichol changed Mao's music when she wanted to skate to a sad/moving music after her mother passed to make her smile and I recall that in 2002 John Nicks was the one who said she needed to skate to Carmen. Idk maybe the role of who chooses the music varies from coach/choreographer/skater.

I don't think there's a hard and fast rule either way. Some skaters chose their own music, some don't. I would imagine it's collaborative.

Good choices IMO. Nothing groundbreaking but no warhorse either.
I love the idea of Tonight, Paul & Islam skated to it in 2011-2012 but they couldn't to skate their program to its full potential that year.

 

[Ice Dance]

I believe this makes Lauriault & Le Gac the first non-American dance team to confirm they are competing hip hop. Unless there is some way to perform swing to MJ.
