I don´t think music choice or in this case choosing a War Horse has anything to do with score. You could have the more innovative music choice and skate to The Black Keys, Foster The People, Owl City or The Great Big World, but if your program doesn´t have musicality and technical side, music won´t help you.To be fair, Yuzuru's PW is an unusual music choice and the judges certainly rewarded that (though that might be independent of music choice and more to do with his tech possibly I guess?); and Jason got a good mark for his BV at the olympics for the Prince SP. There are others that didn't get so rewarded for different music like Reynolds or Jeremy, but they haven't been able to back it up tech-wise.
A program can be innovative even with an old song.
And classical music is hard to skate too. I will take my eyes out if I have to watch a skate program to hip hop or somehting like that.
