Skating Before and After

[iluvtodd]

Regrettably, I have to leave this one to someone else ... Boyang is the only Spiderman I know (figuratively skating, that is).

Actually, I recognized Boyang's Spiderman music because Todd E. skated to it in one of the Family Skating Tribute shows a few seasons ago (Musselman's Family Skating Tribute 2012). Todd wore a full Spiderman costume & his stepson Ryder was dressed in a kid's tuxedo, pretending to sing Michael Buble's part. it's on Youtube!

Back to the game - Javi - Guys & Dolls

Guys and Dolls (and I can't help mentioning my favorite part: Luck Be a Lady!)


ETA: Jinx ! with iluvtodd ... actually it's not a true "jinx" because ilt typed 6 hours ago ... but I was going off LadyB's quote of me, so I didn't see ilt's post till I'd ... Jinxed!

^ I don't get the Jinxed reference. Can you explain it?

Javi - Danny Boy - his 2016 Worlds Exhibition program :luv17:

Oh, sure! It must be my Oklahoma upbringing. When I was a kid many moons ago, if two people said exactly the same thing at the same time, one or both would say "Jinx!" and then count aloud very fast, up to 10. :cool14: Now that I think of it and explain it, that was actually a very affirming, fun "game" that didn't involve someone losing out or losing face, etc. Nice.

I'm going to have to go with another beloved (by me) Javi program -- Don Quixote.

I would love to say Utana Yoshida and Shingo Nishiyama because their Don Quixote is maybe the only one that I can say that I truly like but this is their first year competing together so I’m gonna say Sarah Hughes.

PS. Nothing against Javi but the music of the Don Quixote is not my cup of tea

Scott Hamilton - skated to a parody of Don Quixote in SOI

 

[LadyB]

I tried hard to avoid it, but you guys won't let go of Don Quixote.

So, I have to say John Curry, but like to stress that I will always, always love Toller Cranston one million times more! That's not just my 12-year old self talking

Scheherezade (patting myself on the back ... this will get us off Don Quixote, since many skaters have skated to Scheh... John C skated it in an EX)

 

[LadyB]

Thanks, skylark! :agree:

Mao Asada (skated to Sheherezade in 2011-12)

The season I came back to watch FS again ‘properly’ after years of absence. Fell in love with P&P on the spot for being different and interesting, when they were still very often criticised on this forum. Luckily, things have changed.

Michal Brezina (skated Beatles FS this season)
