I think they are doing 80s to appeal to their base audience and judges (those of use who remember how fabulous the 80s were.)
Is that why we don’t see Charleston/Roaring 20s themes anymore?I think they are doing 80s to appeal to their base audience and judges (those of use who remember how fabulous the 80s were.)
Mr. Mac and danced to that at our wedding as our first dance. I was a big Journey fan. Plus I wanted a waltz so we could do more than sway back and forth.Lots of waltzes from the 80s.
Journey “Open Arms” was a popular one.
It's becoming a Short Dance like the other disciplines have a Short Program.I feel like that’s where the RD is headed (to irrelevancy). I hope I’m wrong.
I think 70s nostalgia was big a few years ago so 80s is next, right? Though normally, nostalgia is for the decade 30 years ago which would be the 90s. Like ->I don't get this. The 80s is ages ago, and people who were young then are old now. I should know, I was there!
The 90s had better music than the 80s anyway!If they are doing this I want the 90’s next. Give me all the grunge programs, mixed in with some Dawson’s Creek programs and most of all a million Buffy the Vampire Slayer programs.
That's not what we'd get. We'd wind up with warring Backstreet Boys and N*Sync programs with a healthy dose of early Britney and Christina thrown in for good measure, not to mention some Spice Girls and another "Friends" theme program for good measure. It would feel like last season all over again!Yeah, my 15 year old nephew and his friends were obsessed with Stranger Things and Kate Bush. So I forced him to watch some 80’s music videos and he was less of a fan.

Please, a nice Melrose Place program set to that jazzy intro, full-on with reenactments of some of the highlight moments of the show, minus blowing up the apartment complex. That was my 90's weekly viewing.If they are doing this I want the 90’s next.

Oh please post a clip to this one.A million points to a team that dares to skate to Einstürzende Neubauten
Einstürzende Neubauten Berlin 1982Oh please post a clip to this one.
We did a halftime cheer routine to that when I was in high school.If we do 90s someone better skate to “Rhythm is a Dancer” for the Rhythm Dance or I’m gonna be really pissed off.
Yes please! No covers!Anyways, I think the 80's theme could really be over the top fun in a good way for some teams, while others will just pick the most generic and safe stuff. But I really want the one rule to be that the original (or at least 80's version) must be used, not the 2019 emo tragedy tinkly piano version.
poto after poto onlyDon’t hold your breaths, people. We may get all the Boy George, Twisted Sister, and Andrew Lloyd Webber.

Hey! I think they're trying to be down with the Gen Xers (I am a Gen Xer with a 6- and 10-year-old).Can't decide if this is the ISU trying again, tragically, to be down with the kids, or trying, as they should, to be down with the grannies. Either way, it has massive ridiculousness potential so I'm interested.
Although yeah, really, I'd kill for a waltz, complete with Empress Sissi beribboned cupcakes as dresses (and all the guys looking like the Nutcracker)!

I guess I should have added the two rabbits I have.I am a GenXer with a cat
When I was a kid, we had a rabbit who thought he was one of the cats! He ate cat food and used the litter box. I'm sure some enterprising dance team could come up with an RD or FD on a related theme.I guess I should have added the two rabbits I have.
How dare I be so disrespectful to them.
I’ll pay for that later.
