U.S. Women [#7]: Make Me a Believer!

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

You're right. It's a possibility. I don't want to dampen your dreams.

I'm looking forward to learning what her music is. At a minimum, her short program music is bound to be an improvement over last season. Also, I have faith in her that she won't be one of the many who are skating to war horses.

But hear me out, you know how madonnas’s lyrics in the song go TikTok, TikTok, TikTok, TikTok, and we all know that she is the queen of TikTok… Riiiiigghhhttttttttt? so maybe some foreshadowing here….

The more I think about it, it’s such an awesome vehicle for Amber, I hope this is her music.

And the lyrics talk about saving the world, and she sure does!!

By the way, Janet Jackson’s “this time” is awesome. I’ve been listening to that since the Janet album came out in the 90s, she even had a guest opera singer on that track which is what I’m guessing most of you didn’t like? I’ve been jamming to “this time” for a long long time.

She also had to take like an eight or 10 minute song and squish it down into two minutes and 40 seconds.

Oh my gosh last season, Janet, maybe this season Madonna than she has a stick around for next season just serve us Miss Kylie!!!! Yasssssssss pleaseeeeeeeeeee..

I'm sure you're right. But, I can't pretend that it wouldn't be a huuuge improvement over last season's short program music. That's where I draw the line.

The best figure skater in the world has a story up, which looks like to be with Kaitlyn Weaver. I’m assuming she’s getting choreography and the song playing is four minutes by Madonna,

Kaori is getting a new program to Four Minutes by Madonna??!?

It would be better than her choice of "Time to Say Goodbye."

Oh. My. God.

The best figure skater in the world has a story up, which looks like to be with Kaitlyn Weaver. I’m assuming she’s getting choreography and the song playing is four minutes by Madonna, now I don’t know if this is going to be her music, but I literally lost my sh*t about 2 1/2 minutes ago and I need a prescription to make myself better. Lol This would make ANL the happiest man.

Because a month or so ago when people were asking for music suggestions, I said Amber should do burning up by Madonna…. same difference. Oh my gosh. I’m on the edge of my seat. I feel like that Kristen Wiig character in SNL where the woman can’t keep a surprise and she keeps saying Ohhh Myyyy Goddddd…… Do you remember? Lol.

This would work for me.

BTW - Just throwing this out in the universe, but Lady Gaga's Abracadabra has got to be someone's program somewhere this year. Maybe in Ice Dance (?)

Well, if that does not have Lilah fear and Lewis Gibson written all over it I don’t know what does.

I’ve talked about it in previous threads here, but Arakawa was not AT ALL a serious contender for the Olympics until that early practice session and the 3+3+3 clip that circulated from it. She had an otherwise mediocre season to that point, dropped way down in the standings at the previous Worlds, and no one was really talking about her. Slutskaya, Cohen, Kostner, Kwan being the unknown until the early practice— all of them yes. Plus of course Asada not being old enough.

LOL totally off topic but I have to disagree a bit here. Of course 2006 was a long time ago & I've forgotten a lot of the details ... but I can say Arakawa never fell off my radar as a 2006 contender. When you win Worlds the way she did in 2004 and have the kind of season she did that year, you will be always be a potential contender in judges' eyes, IMO. That level of performance isn't seen that often, so when it is seen, judges remember. I also had the benefit of seeing Arakawa live at the 2004 Marshalls cheesefest, so I knew that the quality of her basic skating was in every way comparable to the other top women. It was just a matter of putting that together with the jumps. In general, I think Arakawa (and Kwan) stayed relevant in the judges' minds for 2006 because of the very well-known flaws of their rivals: Slutskaya's lack of real artistic quality, and Cohen's inability to skate a clean program.

Yeah, I doubt they are going to do another Gaga program, though the song was higher charting in EUR than in the US, so perhaps some voidy Euro Ice Dance team will do it.
