Dance - Free

[oxade21]

Did the rule change again? Why am I hearing Edith Piaf's voice?

 

[Hsuhs]

Really? :scratch:
Didn't know that (I probably read it and forgot it...)

Yep, they said so in an interview. Explains their shred outfits.

Ice dancers are allowed to have lyrics in their music. I think this rule was instated in the mid to late 90's.

My favourite group begins: neither Morosov neither Shpilband & Zueva in it

This is the first competition I've watched since, what, the Olympics? Lack of interest, I guess. But Tanith and Ben had to suck me back in... It's funny. I never used to like ice dancing and men's skating as a rule, but now it's the only two evens I'm truly interested in right now. I'm actually starting to get excited for the Olympics, believe it or not.

Welcome back to the world of figure skating! I've definitely got the Olympic fever too.

um, Ice Dance has always been allowed to use vocals?

 

[Hsuhs]

Not French enough to my tastes.

What happened to the Muse freedance Carron/Jost had?

They lost a lot of points on it at Euros, so they changed it.

 

[oxade21]

Carron looks like Marion Cotillard How fitting.

Thanks, I forgot that.

 

[beep_beep]

Actually, no.
They changed the rule on the 97/98 (IIRC) season because it was too difficult for the couples to find OD music (jive IIRC) without lyrics.

ETA: go Anna and Luca !!

Ooh...beautiful routine for the Italians. Still can't hear this music without thinking of David and Jamie, though...wonder if the evident comparisions are going to be a good or bad thing? It would be kind of hard to top the other Love Story program.

 

[Lucky Star]

Hi everybody! Just have woke up to watch free dances, it's 7 a.m. here... I hope... No, I'm sure that Oksana and Maxim will win! :agree:

 

[oxade21]

I can not stand this music. Thanks to S/P.

 

[Hsuhs]

I hope... No, I'm sure that Oksana and Maxim will win! :agree:

And I hope the best duo wins

Very nice from Cappellini & Lanotte. I like them very much and hope to see more great skates from them in the future.

Ugh, it's 12:17 am here with 8 skaters left, including an ice resurfacing and the medal ceremony. At this rate I'll be in bed by 2.

Cappellini/Lanotte

Nice performance. Smooth in most places, with some minor jitters here and there. They still skate a bit small.

 

[Tonichelle]

can someone inform Tracey that it's DisneyLAND in California, DisneyWORLD is in FLORI-DUH!


and yes, that is an important thing for me to be upset about

 

[LeCygne]

I liked Cappellini/Lanotte a lot. Some pretty lifts in there. They're a very sweet couple.

PREACH IT, FRIEND!

(Yes, I'm a Disneyland lover and I'm not ashamed of it! )

Interesting routine for the Kerrs. If that terrorist angle is true, I can see how it works...the music is very sad and melodramatic.
