welcome backHey if you've got it, flaunt it!
She looks like she's having tons of fun! Looking forward to seeing this program.
(Arises from hibernation, I got heavily into the CBS version of Ghosts so that's where I've been.)
btw i love both versions of Ghosts, british and american
I don't know the music, but since it's Ashlie and Atl my reaction is
in any case!
They're using the Aerosmith with Run DMC version of the song, which was released in 1986, so they'll be fine.Mamma mia! After spending all of last season complaining about my Cypriot kids skating to "It's Tricky", now I have to endure another season listening to it!
...or maybe not. Once they start competing, Ash and Atl may find that they have to change their Short, because neither song fully fits the wording of the rules:
"The theme selected for the Rhythm Dances for both Junior and Senior for the season 2023/24 is “Music and Feeling of the Eighties”. Any music is possible provided it was originally released in the decade of the 1980s. The couple should demonstrate through dance the culture and feeling/essence of this decade. The selected music may be remastered. The Rhythm Dance should NOT be skated in the style of a Free Dance. The couple must use dance movements and dance holds to interpret the chosen music from this decade."Source: https://www.isu.org/inside-isu/isu-communications/communications/31243-isu-communication-2560/file (top of page 2)
"Walk This Way" was originally released by Aerosmith on their own in 1975. So, it was definitely not "originally released in the decade of the 1980s". And as such, it is likely to get them a deduction.
"It's Tricky" lives up to it's title because, depending on how you look at it, it may or may not be classed as being "originally released in the decade of the 1980s". It uses the same tune as the 1979 song "Kitty" by Racey, so the tune was definitely not original in the 80's. But the lyrics of "It's Tricky" were completely new. So, if the vocals are included in the programme, it might just pass through without problems.
Nevertheless, knowing the two songs, it should be a really fun programme. So, if they do have to replace it, it could become a great exhibition programme.
Anyway, I'm intrigued by their Free. "Great Balls Of Fire" is the only song in it that I actually know. But, I am so looking forward to seeing the programme, because even if the other songs turn out to be not very exciting, I know that the "Great Balls Of Fire" section will be a lot of fun!
Oh, I wish them all the best for the coming season. They are so likable!

are any other ISU bios updated for 2023-24? i wonder if they're competing somewhere soon and that's why theirs is
IIRC, if you go look into the history of this song and the version that was made popular by Run DMC in the 80s, Tyler and Perry actually went into the studio with Run DMC and re-recorded it. So it's NOT the original from the 70s. Tyler even took on singing certain parts of the song that were adopted in the 80s version from there on out in concerts etc. The Run DMC version of the song actually re-jump started Aerosmith's career and made them popular again.
), no one thinks or thought that rap or hip hop sampling is the "same" song. It is not covering a tune the way that, for example, "The Greatest Love of All", originally sung by George Benson in the 70s, was just plain old re-sung by Whitney Houston in the 80s.
that's my baby!
i heard about that on the radio (radiofreccia, a rock radio) i wouldn't have known otherwise
