Yes.Jeremy Abbott's is the one and only.
The music should have been retired after that.

To be honest I can't get behind this idea that certain music 'belongs' to a certain skater. I mean one skater might embody it the most for a particular generation (or even generations!) of fans, but I don't think that should mean other skaters shouldn't use it as well if that's what they want. I don't know for sure but there had to be Boleros before Torville and Dean and one of them was probably considered a masterpiece. If everyone felt that that music was untouchable back then we wouldn't have got their performance...and others too (Plushy's and Liza's versions come to mind!).
As for me, I don't have a standout favourite for this piece , I do wonder what happened to Part 1 and 2 of the symphony though!

Though I was really impressed with Vincent Zhou's first >100 short program the other day, the short format just butchers the song too much to be effective.
I suppose Ashley Wagner is the gold standard answer to this question, but I really enjoyed this no-name junior's performance. She reminds me of Marin Honda, in that her artistic ability far exceeds that of her technical ability.

Wonder why parts I and II never get any love from skaters...
Without a doubt, Ashley Wagner
So many of you said Jeremy Abbott but I have watched several of his performances of it and don't see it
That was lovely. Her name is Selina Kaneda. Her mama would be sad to have her called a no-name.
