He is very strong contender, indeed. I can imagine Plush 2 times OGM with Edvin Marton musics affraid

With Plushenko back, I dearly hope Brian will get his revenge :bjdg3dl9:

Avec Plushenko de retour, j'éspère vraiment que Brian va avoir sa revanche, hein Gis? oh la la, ça va être chaud.....

Subject: Re: Pluschenko's return! 19.05.09 20:32

I have just read news, this is going to be hot heat in Vancouver for the men.

Brian will have to work hard to arrive at it but why no podium..

Je viens de lire la nouvelle , ça va être chaud chaud à Vancouver pour les hommes .

Brian devra bosser dur pour y arriver mais pourquoi pas un podium .

He picked a Tango for the free skate and the theme from the movie The Pianist for the short. Marton was also responsible for the skater's music when he took the gold in Turin in 2006.

He better make a good program out of it. I adore the music and the movie and don't want to see Plushenko ruin it. Razz

Well, you know, Plush will find a way to incorporate his infamous "windmill" arms into his new programs, Rolling Eyes

LOL. Can't he find another composer to create stuff for him? I am so sick of Marton I could scream. The first time they collaborated it was an interesting novelty but, now, the whole concept is just...old. There must be some new way for Plushchenko to be inovative, isn't there? LOL

Ice dancers doing choreography for single skaters seem to be a new trend. US-ice dancers Gregory/Petukhov will be doing both of Plushenko's programs!

"We cannot reveal yet the music or theme," said Petukhov. "But we can tell you that it will definitely be in a new direction, and it will be a big change for him this year. He is not afraid to try new things."

Oh really?? I wanna see that.. Rolling Eyes
