So questionable that Firus just won a medal with it.
I think La La La land ost sounds horrible in ice rink. It's hard to explain. It just doesn't sound right for ice rink atmosphere.
In the rink, the lyrics were badly garbled by the sound system. I didn't know what I was listening to, only that it made me think of a very earnest but bland high school musical. (Much like his outfit.) It didn't matter because he skated so beautifully, but the music isn't going to help him along if he isn't spot on.
Those lifts and positionsAljona just posted on instagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BZMYR8uh2jX/?hl=en&taken-by=aljonasavchenko
and one of the photos is the cover of the album 'la terre vue du ciel' so here's the confirmation
You all do realize P/C did not invent this kind of music or style right?
kakadakis made me cackle way more than I should granted I'm not four years old anymore.
Are you sure?! Isn't it written that the world was a savage place, shrouded in darkness, until P/C appeared and gave unto us both music and style....Well I was unable to find it, but maybe I didn't look hard enough?
That's my issue with La La La land soundtrack. On YouTube it sounds ok, but when you apply it to ice rink, it sounds so scratchy and I doubt any sound system would make it better. It's weak and bland and not impactful. I think the main issue is that the base of these sounds is so thin.
It seems that Aljona is even way more experimental than she was with Robin. No common music in three seasons. It feels so good after all these disappointing program announcements from top skaters.
That is sooo Ballester, who is soooo Arribert (who made her dance teams and ballet skate on Patrick Watson and Wax Tailor a few years ago).
They can join Mary Nagasaki.
The first to use Armand Amar were Melodie Chataignier and Medhi Bouzzine. The OST of "Va, Vis et Deviens" in ... 2005 (?) IIRC.Not a completely novel selection for S/M -- former US ice dance team Kseniya Ponomaryova and Oleg Altukhov used it for their free dance last season, though that was just a bit under-the-radar.
Camille Ruest and Drew Wolfe also seem to use a piece of Amar's in the second half of their "Earth Song" free.
Probably Quadjump meant it in comparison to her other programs with Robin and Bruno, not in comparison to other skatersAljonaboring?! Surely you jest!

His Moulin Rouge was one of the better ones too. The guy is just brilliant.Totally agree. Firus' La La Land is stunning, great music cuts, expressed so well, with great choreography.
no pun originally intended, but now it is) 
Actually, in the article in which the change was announced, they say that they considered keeping Piaf at the beginning, but at the time she felt she wanted to try something new, so they picked a new program and decided to work on it for the summer and then decide which they preferred at the end of the summer. She said they got good reviews for Summertime at High Performance Camp, but when she tried working with Piaf again afterwards she remembered how much she loved it (or something like that) and she knew it was the right choice. They said she needed the summer of working on something else to keep it from feeling stale.Good idea. Fans here have been suggesting it since Summertime's debut. The switch contradicts her coach's comments during his recent interview with Ted Flett, but clearly someone in SC must have advised Kaetlyn to drop sp 'Summer' for the more magical Piaf short which is more suited to delivering some magic at a Winter Olympics.
Lots of skaters have been dropping problematic new programs to go back to tried and true or to a different new program with better music that suits them, i.e., Vincent Zhou; Kaetlyn Osmond; Chris & Alexa; Ashley W; Mariah Bell; et al. A couple of skaters are even renewing their old partnership.
