Um, does that go for everyone? I have a "little" question that doesn't really need its own thread, especially when things are busy...Sylvia said:Feel free to post any further questions here.
Regarding Jeffrey Buttle's Sing Sing Sing by Louis Prima: Since the vocalist is scatting and not singing actual lyrics, his music is allowed. A few seasons ago, Maria Butyrskaya skated to Sarah Brightman's 'Scene D'Amour' which featured her voice as another instrument and not singing words.sloopie said:But tonight I've heard 2 vocals - one used by Jeffrey Buttle, which was scat singing and thus could be considered voice-as-instrument, but then there was an operatic chorus, which.... is vocal, even if it is in Italian and from opera (wait, this is Italy, this is everyday music to them....)
Has there been a change, or do judges just not care about that sort of thing any more? Or is the deduction, if any, so trivial that it doesn't matter?
