I dream of a program to Moment of Truth by Electric Light Orchestra.
What piece of music do you want to see use...

I love the Fauré's song and the idea for figure skating. It could be a great music for a short program especially in singles.

Two off the top of my head. I'm a big fan of minimalism, and I think these have maximum potential for ID FDs in particular:
Selections from the oeuvre of Penguin Cafe Orchestra (Perpetuum Mobile in particular, and Steady State)

John Adams, The Chairman Dances (Foxtrot for Orchestra) (get Charlie White to edit this for you!)

Perfect for a girl in her last junior season, IMO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MilR3Z1sASY&t=3s

Oh gawd, I hope the gods of FS will listen to you :luv17::luv17::luv17::luv17::luv17:
They can use the soundtrack of the 2005 movie as well.
I'll also add something definitely risky and kinda creepy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZ7FGUgSZ8A
I love this music, I don't know why. Maybe it's because of Guillem's incredible dance skills and interpretation
So, so, so many. So many.
Overture to Candide by L. Bernstein
Finale from Symphony No. 9 ("From the New World") by A. Dvorak
Finale from Symphony No. 7 by L. van Beethoven
Third Movement from Prokofiev's First Piano Concerto (the third concerto has been used in various forms).
Finale from either Symphony No. 4 or Symphony No. 5 by P. I. Tchaikovsky
Any number of Etudes by F. Chopin - "Revolutionary," "Ocean," "Aeolian Harp"
"La Campanella" by F. Liszt
And, believe it or not, I love Firebird, but I have yet to see a version that is musically and choreographically satisfying. So, I'll list it just because I'm waiting for a well done version.
Non-Classical:
"Come Undone" by Duran Duran
"The Power of Goodbye" or "Rain" by Madonna
"Porcelain" by Moby
"Orinoco Flow" or "Carribean Blue" by Enya

I have a big list.
1. "Satellite" by Lena (Winner of 2010 Eurovision). I can see Tarasova/Morozov skate to this.
2. "Our Choice" by Ari Olafsson (Icelandic entry for 2018 Eurovision). I can see Kaetlyn Osmond skate to this.
3. "Taboo" by Christabelle (2018 Eurovision entry for Malta). I can see Alaine Chartrand skate to it.
4. "Knock Knock" by Mac Miller (I had the idea since last year). Someone like Polina Edmunds could skate to it.
5. "This is Me" from "The Greatest Showman. I wish it came out a year earlier than it did because it would have suited Ashley Wagner PERFECTLY for a FP for an Olympic season.
6. The opening monologue from the 87th annual Academy Awards. Kaetlyn Osmond was the first skater to come to mind on who should skate to it.
7. "Hello, I Love You" and "People are Strange" by the Doors. Those two could work well as a FD for McNamara/Carpenter.
8. "Pure Imagination" and "The Candyman" from Willy Wonka Jr would work well as a FD and the Parsons were a team that came to mind.
9. "Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini" by Brian Hyland and the long version of "Lollipop" from the 2009 Intel/Dell commercial (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CqitLqO_Aww) work well as a FD and I can see Gilles/Poirier skate to it.
10. The theme songs to "Family Matters" and "Full House" could work as a SP for Jason Brown.
11. "Nobody but You" by Cesar Sampson (Austrian entry for 2018 Eurovision) would work well for pairs. Don't know which one though. Duhamel/Radford were the first to come to my mind. But they retired...so I don't know.

I've often thought that "Hurricane" is the perfect length to be a short program basically by itself.
"The Drumming Song" by Florence + the Machine is a big one for me. Really, a lot of Florence's songs would be great skating music. More people follow Yi Christy's example!
