Tutto, thanks for finding that! Just so you’re not talking to yourself, here’s my opinion. I think Winds of Change, with the right music cuts and choreography, has the potential to be a beautiful, and even iconic, SP for Misha. The music and lyrics are captivating, and there are changes in mood and orchestration that could be highlighted quite effectively and dramatically in the time allotted for a SP. I can’t wait to see it!

This is generic choreography for ice shows. But it is true, Mika and his choreographer will need some great idea to make this program iconic and not just a generic MOR program. It will be a challenge, for sure. But if someone can make something special that is Mika, so i have hopes.
But i am still not happy with any music he choose for this season. Chaplin as Tramp has been done before and too recently, so i hope he will go for other take and not just do "the tramp". Chaplin has many music pieces, not all have been used to death, so it might get something unique. But yeah.... Scorpions i don't like it for a program for the same reasons you mentioned. He will have to be very clever. The music might help him or the music might be just too iconic to be skated with a MOR choreography. But i loved his Carmen, so it might go well.
Sigh, now i wished i had sent my music list to him, but a lot of you did and it come to nothing, so....
I guess we just have to wait and see ... and now thankfully we don't have to wait till September to have our hopes/ reservations toward the programs justified.
I am still curios why he choose this particular song for SP and hoping to learn that from the upcoming interview
that he would be close enough for me to go see in person! (Well, east coast would have been better, like SC last season, but hey, it’s closer to DC than Europe or Asia). But then I saw that Yuzuru was going to be there too, and my reaction was “damn it”:dev2: Though not because Yuzuru’s tough to compete against (which will be exciting and fun to watch), but because Yuzuru’s presence will make it harder to get a good seat 
... It feels to me that not skating in Russia is a good thing... Less pressure as it was mentioned already. He will have plenty of fans in both events ! We know already (for sure !!!) that he has plenty of fans in Japan and we will have the confirmation of how much his fan base in North America has grown since Boston.
