Worlds 2025 Free Dance: “Last Dance”

[slicekw]

The Chrysler Building has arrived in Boston!

(For the Art Deco fans)

 

[MacMadame]

blah blondey pup experience

What's a blonde-y pup experience? (I assume this is a British-ism)

 

[Rukia]

Now at season's end, I'm pretty close to believing in their mad, bad, destructive passion and lust, and I would not have believed that in October.

They really upped their sluttiness all season thank goodness

 

[beckab81]

So we get superstar artist from this group, anything else?

 

[SkateSand]

My cat has been napping in my lap for most of these free dances, but she sat up and was transfixed during Carmen.

 

[peibeck]

2nd in the FD for Car/Pom.

Judges in love with the Dune program?

They were barely behind the Dune program.

 

[Kateri]

Oh, Piper's giving stab wound, now too?

Cute and sweet but then pisses on your floor.

I think it’s an @Andrey aka Pushkin -ism blah blondey pup.

So we get superstar artist from this group, anything else?

I think we decided Beyonce's cover of herself still counted as an emo/ sad girl cover.

(Halfway through my first Cosmo and I'm already drunk enough that I can't type.)

 

[PRlady]

L/B ending on lower TES than the Georgians. Kill me.

I’m still brooding about this half an hour later. G/P also under marked. Car/Pon and Dune about right.

 

[skategal]

They were barely behind the Dune program.

Have they ever been behind Smart/Dieck before?

I think that is new?

 

[peibeck]

To me, CarPom has short strokes and blurry steps. Looks sloppy and under-powered to me.

If you are accused of killing the joy, I have already shared your pain this afternoon.

 

[KCC]

I don't see any costumes that I really like in this last set. Chock's dress looks the nicest, but it is still not my favorite.

 

[skipaway]

Peggy wants to go back to her other seat now

 

[Vagabond]

I wish someone would rush in and tell Paul Poirier, "I've got your back!"

 

[Rukia]

If you are accused of killing the joy, I have already shared your pain this afternoon.

As if I would ever let someone bring me down

 

[PRlady]

Charlie White seems to be aging in reverse.

Saw the Shibs in the concourse and they have not aged an inch in ten years. It’s almost creepy!

[Primorskaya]

Love watching the walks up to the ice from all the couples.
Lajoie/Lagha: he marches forward as if into pitched battle, she struggles to keep up
Guignard/Fabbri: businesslike, with a little girly touch from her
Fear/Gibson: full on catwalk strut
Gilles/Poirier: JFK and Jackie on a state visit
Chock/Bates: Prom Queen and partner greeting adoring crowds

 

[skategal]

I wish someone would rush in and tell Paul Poirier, "I've got your back!"

They should have been Piper and Paul’s
quote for the competition.

 

[miffy]

Have they ever been behind Smart/Dieck before?

I think that is new?

I feel Smart/Dieck are still relatively new compared to everyone else and they could keep improving and potentially overtake more teams. They took a couple of seasons to really challenge.

 

[Sally1214]

"We'll find out who's going to win gold." Seriously, Chris? Have you been sharing @MacMadame's cosmos?

 

[canbelto]

Idk why ice dance teams are so into these sleepy, droopy covers of classic rock songs.

 

[MsZem]

The Chrysler Building has arrived in Boston!

I still prefer the Jay McCarroll version.

 

[tony]

This score is about to be some bullshit

 

[Wyliefan]

Wondering how the Boston audience feels about this song.

"Oh yeah, we know this one! I don't remember it being hollered at us, though."

 

[millyskate]

I normally like Lajoie / Langha but of all the people to do a tribute program of, James / Cipres is a bad choice.

 

[tangerine dream]

This program is the angstiest angst that ever angsted.

 

[beckab81]

Have they ever been behind Smart/Dieck before?

I think that is new?

Smart/Dieck beat them in the FD at Cup of China earlier this year. Christina & Anthony have the better RD, Smart & Dieck have the better FD.
