2023 Skate Canada Pairs Short Program

[TT_Fin]

Her knee was bleeding, maybe a blade, his or her own, hurt his knee. I also did not see a fall and they had done two elements when I was with.

 

[RatedPG]

OK. Two Canadian pairs in this final flight. Go Canada

Queen Deanna!!!

 

[auser]

I think we should have a list for the worst covers each season

Sadly, could be long and painful.

 

[Ares]

Noooo dreadful cover.

What's up with figure skating and dreadful covers of good songs? Before they let skaters use songs with lyrics in all disciplines I didn't know there were so many ghastly covers.

 

[cheerknithanson]

Deanna is so inspiring. 40 years old and still has it.

 

[4everchan]

Agreed. They are missing that spark

especially with this song...

And it's not just that they are covers, there are some glorious covers of good songs, but our skaters seem to sometimes hunt out the worst they can find...

 

[Weathergal]

Deanna looks beautiful as always - love her dress and Maxime's costume as well. And he looks handsome (hope that's OK to say, 4everchan).

There are some amazing covers. Gregory Crimson's cover of "The Light Behind Your Eyes" by My Chemical Romance is phenomenal. Probably should look for people who continuously look at covers of songs to find the good ones.

SP: 59.83 SB (3rd)

This team was PERFORMING on the ice. I love their choice of music and packaging, it works fantastically for them. Not the highest GOEs but all of the elements got done nicely.

 

[lileychristie]

Please give Brooke and Ben extra points for using the original Beatles, especially after back to back dreadful covers right before them.

 

[4everchan]

this is quite a good performance for a first outing this season !!!!

 

[CellarDweller]

Ok, that was a fun-looking skate!

 

[RatedPG]

Wow!! Brooke engaged in this program.

Was that a throw 3Lz!! Wow!!

 

[Weathergal]

I loved Brooke and Benjamin's program! I've always thought the Beatles' "Oh Darling" would be a great skating song, and they certainly made sure it was. It was nice to Brooke come out of her shell a bit, too!

 

[TT_Fin]

Happy to have a possibility to see them (the Canadians) live in a few weeks.

 

[Weathergal]

Not too into the wuzrobbed thing, but how are Brooke and Benjamin behind the Hungarians?

 

[TallyT]

Oh this music has been used for several figure skating fanvids - great choice and for once the black costumes are terrific with it.

Hey, he can't stop us from admiring and appreciating beauty.
