Yuzuru Hanyu: 2016-17 Season

I also keep thinking about Hanyu's Olympic programs, presumably those could be his last competitive ones. How does he want to be remembered? What kind of music does he want to showcase to the world, to state "I am Yuzuru Hanyu, I will reign"? What kind of music can lift him to his "Olympic moment"?

I'd love something victorious, uplifting, triumphant, king-like. Conveying the themes of Hope and Legacy, if you will :laugh: I think about his first Romeo and Juliet program at Nice 2012, he was the young prince of figure skating charging in with a battle cry, this tragic Shakespearean figure of reckless youth and passionate abandon. I'd love for him to revisit Shakespeare as kind of an homage to his younger self, kind of wrapping his competitive career and coming full circle:

Henry V: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-dR8HD45qs

or
Hamlet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIaKrOllUFw

(Goodnight, sweet prince :cry:)

(Speaking of Scheherazade, he could totally work a costume like Mao's or John Curry's. I kind wanted him to skate to Salome at one point :laugh:)

welcome back btw It has been a long time, I loved you choices :agree:
 
I really loved this song, thank you Rio Olympics for refreshing my playlist.

That would actually be a great idea for a program... And music sounds like an excellent choice for SP...

:shocked: :popcorn:

I have this desire for Yuzuru to play an evil character. Other than Sephiroth or Mephisto, he could be the ring from Lord of the Rings, the box of winter from Thor, the shark from Jaws, the iceberg from Titanic, the bear from Revenant or the chain saw from the Texas Chain Saw Massacre! Kill-'em-all attitude! All these programs would be genius, I'm sure!

The chorus actually goes: I'm gonna wiiiiiin! :laugh:

But seriously, if Yuzuru wins the next Olys, I will make a fan video to this song.

Thank you! I've taken to lurking for a while, but with all this new talk about his new programs (!!!) and his future programs, I just had to post again. I'm very excited thinking about these next two seasons. :)

HAHA that's a great choice. I would be afraid that he would jinx himself, but I could totally imagine this as an EX :biggrin:

How about Harry Potter? #voldemort :devil:


And the composer is John Williams, perfect :yes2:
 
Oh, for me Game of Thrones could be awesome in the right hands. House Stark theme in particular.... dark, sad, triumphant, powerful... wrecks me everytime. In particular the Tower of Joy scene cuts or the reunion of jon and Sansa cuts.

Ex, but only after he wins the Olys. Indeed, the risk of jinxing us too high!

Perfect!

Imagine another upbeat program like............. this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZN2y-bJ-kQ :dance3:

I love that song!

I would see it perfect for Javi, to be honest!:biggrin:

He is already skating to music by arguably Japan's best-known movie music composer.
It is only reasonable he will also skate to music by arguably Japan's best-known videogame music composer, Nobuo Uematsu.

Bring on One-Winged Angel! :peace:
