Shakers. I did a project on them for a college cpurse

I vaguely remember reading about them in a biography of Louisa May Alcott. I’m not sure they actually are responsible for the song though.

Nicely done Claire! Yay for you

Simple Gifts is one of the finest compositions in America's history. No need to your bring religious bias into the discussion.

Agreed. On my personal list it ranks right in-between "American Pie" and "Candyman."

I admire Bradie Tennell's conservative dress. Bare shoulders should not be compulsory.

I think I'd love it without the little collar

Maria, in Buenos Aires: Why do I have so many calls from Tony today?

Shin gives us the first clean combo and clean skate of the evening. Well done.

Nice job, Audrey! Beautiful skate!

Yes, Audrey! Fierce and strong!

 

[Mariiiiskate]

What a skate from Audrey!

 

[GGFan]

Happy for Audrey Shin. She was really into that program.

 

[msteach3]

Good for Audrey, but not a fan of that music either.

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Audrey laying it down!! I forget how high I had her in my predictions, but I’m definitely feeling justified in having faith in her.

 

[skylark]

that's my girl -- Audrey Shin!!! Gorgeous skating and elements, great energy, embodying the music perfectly, and smiles and joy! And the red dress!

Audrey skating with so much confidence this year. Not sure her base value will get her on the medal stand though.

 

[RatedPG]

Audrey skated like a boss. She is just so confident. I hope this is enough to place her in the top flight
