jainaOh, my beautiful beautiful Tanith and Ben. I could not possibly love you any more than I do right now. Well, maybe if you eventually win gold. At the 2010 Olympics. But still. You are marvelous, you are wonderful, and it's a crying shame that we'll finally have three ice dancing couples in the Olympics, and none of them will be you. Hell, none of the three will finish any higher than 10th, most likely. *sobbity*
It's funny, I remember when I used to hate ice dance. I never bothered to watch it when it was on. But I *love* it now. Ice dancers have such a marvelous smoothness and control about them...and because they don't do jumps, there are rarely any falls.
My Michelle...*sigh* As![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
julietvalcouer said, her long program music this year really just doesn't suit her. For one, it's too strongly tied to Torvill and Dean, and for another, she just never really *connected* to it. It felt like they were two separate things-- the music was playing and Michelle was skating along-- rather than one single, harmonious entity as they always are with her. I can only hope she picks two excellent pieces of music for next year, and that they try hard to maximize the points in her programs. It's pretty clear that under the new system, her programs as they stand are no longer enough to win.
