This arose on the other thread about favourite pieces by favourite skaters, so I thought I'd ask... are there pieces of music (or more than one or two, say) that for good or not are so uniquely and completely connected with one skater that it is pretty much impossible for anyone else to use them without being immediately overshadowed by memories of the original? (Homages not included, small beginners earnestly skating to their idol's music/similar costumes is simply adorable and good for the soul and must be encouraged). AKA are there any anti-warhorses? Because Bolero was mentioned, and immediately it became clear that even it has more than one iconic image in people's minds.
(Yes, I thought of Seimei. It is likely that any others would have to be unique and unusual pieces of music as well as iconic or at least never forgotten performances of them. Any others?)
