Unfair? The T&D Bolero was for 1984' standards a revolutionary routine, a revelation. T&D have changed the concept about ice dancing like art and sport in the same time. The G@P routine was for 1998' standards just a good routine and not even so original becouse it has elements inspired by Dean choreography like 2:47 from Song of India and 2:58 from Bolero and many anothers if you look attentively. T&D are a source of inspiration for their successors not ... The Bolero routine is transcedental.

Excellent observations and memory, animblana, all of which I agree with. And I have to add that the popularity, or lack thereof, of any of the music in routines is irrelevant to me, what is relevant is how well the music enhances the routine, or the reverse. Ravel's is not the heart of this superb routine, it's T&D's hearts & skill that made their routine so haunting and timeless. The memory of seeing them do this the first time will always stay with me, while G&P's is already forgotten to me.

They don't skip a beat through the entire song; in the last minute the actual movements are still in tune with the music. Anyway, the smoothness and perfection of the performance makes me feel as if they're in an old picture, on an endless dance, alone, no time, and they're just free.

I too, deeply hate Dick Buttons commentary style. However, I can't claim that he doesn't have the chops to back it up though. He pioneered ice skating in his day - first man ever to do a triple jump among other things.

I love this performance. The way he flips her around starting at 4:27 always blows my mind. And yes, there are skating routines that are more complicated and have trickier moves, but this performance was for ice dancing. The dancing allows more freedom than pairs skating. Ice Dancing is about artistic creativity, and these guys were swimming in it.

Yes, mikmaqwoman, this is the most beautiful program, ever. There is Torville and Dean, and then there is everybody else. Their "Bolero" is hypnotic, and it touches a place in the heart that brings emotions to the surface. Don't know if I like the new judging system, but I do know that ice dancers of today are so busy trying to get maximum points for every move that the passion, creativity and emotion are ioo often lost. Would like to hear your opinion. Thanks for your posting.
