Michelle will always be the best to me. Always moved me with every program and this one as well as Aranjuez are my favorites. She skated her heart out every time she stepped on the ice and for that I thank her.
Yes, but I think ...( 1 month ago by TheSwimmingOne)
Yes, but I think she either had her version specially made for her or she just edited out the voice. The main part of her music is called "E Luchevan Le Stelle" and it is also beautiful. Go Michelle Kwan!
the commentators ...( 1 month ago by koolaidnhemlock)
the commentators ruin the entire thing. why do they insist on talking during every non jump sequence? horrible.

I've never even watched skating before but that clip made tears well up 3 times x]
too bad she couldnt ...( 1 month ago by 1andonlyCobra)
too bad she couldnt have done this in either Salt Lake or Nagano. Even w/o a 3/3 I think comparatively to either Hughes or Lipinski this program wouldve won her gold...

I think this is one of the best prgrams, there is also lyra angelica - 1998, the black swan - 2001, arjunez - 2003, and also liked le amentie de arriane - 1999, but still tosa is the best and i am glad that michelle was skating to this program. WE WILL NEVER FORGET YOU MICHELLE

There is a series ...( 2 weeks ago by LWOPP)
There is a series of CDs called "Opera Without Words." I think a lot of skaters use them. No, you can't go wrong with Puccini, and the softer piece used here (starting right after the 2X axel) is called "Com É lunga l'attesta!"

I know. It was funny, when I first watched this, because I heard the music and I completely stopped paying attention to Kwan. I was too busy anticipating the singing! XD

The only female solo skater that moves me to tears. Michelle, you are the gold medalist every time in my heart. NO ONE skates with the heart that you do.

I still love you MK. This is my favorite program and the ending is just spectacular.
Happy belated birthday!!

She moved me to tears every time I watched her skate. She is, bar none, the very best female skater of all time.
She is GOLD all the way as far as I'm concerned. I just love her!!!
I dont get it..... ...( 6 days ago by concorderules)
I dont get it..... I have been watching skating for nearly 60 years and she is boring...... boring and nothing to make my heart beat faster.
Its so sad how no ...( 4 days ago by lb1309)
Its so sad how no one skates like this anymore.Too much emphasis is put on 3/3 combos and not on the artistry,connection to the music.I mean so many skaters just jump and have crappy artistry and they get high scores I just dont get it!More points should be given for artistry and that spiral,WOW! Judges don't give michelle enough credit on how well she does it. Skaters now are so wobbly when changing edges, and it does compare to the steadiness and heartfelt emotion Michelle puts into that move.
Also,I think people ...( 4 days ago by lb1309)
Also,I think people forget how good of a technical Michelle is,I mean she rarely falls & lands all her jumps.I think a BONUS should be given for landing ALL 6 types of jumps because skaters now think about the points so if there is a jump they dont like say the salchow,then they'll probably add 2 triple flips or something.Just look at mao asada world 08 LP.She doesn't do a salchow!I really do hope Michelle comes back for 2010 olympics to show everyone how to skate with genuine emotion and heart!
oops! I meant that ...( 4 days ago by lb1309)
oops! I meant that other skaters spirals DO NOT compare to the steadiness and heartfelt emotion that Michelle puts into that move.

Some people get it. Some people don't. Fortunately, most people get Michelle's passion to skate.
