2022 Skate Canada Free Dance

So share my body, so share my coffin or coffee?
What am I hearing as the music ends? I'm confused,

 

[CellarDweller]

great skating everyone!

Now, off to get ready for the parties, see ya in the pairs thread.

well it was worth the wait for Piper and Paul's first event... so glad they didn't retire ... considering how good Carol is at tweaking things as the season progresses... this will be stellar by the end of the year...

I still want an Evita program with High Flying Adored or Another Suitcase In Another Hall but that was nicely done, not my favorite program of theirs but good enough for the win

I was JUST thinking we need an Another Suitcase in Another Hall program. Hmm, maybe a Hawayek/Baker possibility...

Coffin.
Evita died

Not familiar with those songs myself, but I'm just glad it's not another Bueno Aires.

I did love the character step sequence, maybe it'll grow on me like you are loving it now!

well... i am biased because i have been secretly in love with Paul since 2010 or something LOL... but yeah.. it is a very emotional program and there are many unique moments and the attention to detail in the choreography... it's not generic like some other programs

Whichever team does it has my undying support for that season

So share my coffin. It refers to her death.

I'm glad Mark on the ISU Youtube is sounding much perkier than after yesterday's... interesting Men's SP!

 

[4everchan]

Evita Lives !

So share my coffin. It refers to her death.

and to the fact the she was subject to national devotion like a saint...or Lenin (they had her body embalmed and exposed to the public)

Coffin.
Evita died

That's what I thought it was. I know the story, I am just surprised they went that route with the vocal instead of ending on an instrumental. The first section was so personal that I feel like it was a mistake to end so dark. It makes me feel Piper & Paul are dying and it is too maudlin for me.

 

[moonvine]

When are they going to drop the sentimental stuff!
It's lovely but generic!

They've been waiting for years to skate to this, apparently.

I cheered when it wasn't Buenos Aires

It certainly isn't generic, I give them that. +5 GOE for not using Buenos Aires!

By the way, for people who aren't familiar with Evita numbers:

That's just weird and gross.

I personally love it. Piper and Paul have never been traditional and I love that they went dark, they do it well.

If they use the lusciously tacky Hermes House Band cover of "I Will Survive" Fusar-Poli used in 2002, I will be cheering for them, and it would be specially fitting since they are just as mismatched, dance skills wise, and Babs and Maurizio.

My favorite comment in this thread! I commend you for your insights

It's a cultural thing.
