Hello Evgeni,

I found very interesting you are open to your fan's suggestions! I love watching your performances and I hope you'll get better soon after you surgery next month.
So, my suggestions are (sorry if somebody gave before because it's really hard to use google translator for the whole forum):
- Libertango - Astor Piazzola,
- Por una cabeza - Carlos Gardel ("Scent of a woman" version) and
- "Numb" - Linkin' Park (the instrumental version).

Hope this helps you!

All the best !!!

Adriana

WOW! My intention was to listen to people's suggestions for songs before giving mine, but there's already too much, it's crazy!!!!! I hope Plushenko has a big crew to help him read and listen to all these things people are suggesting...So, I'll just leave mine...but that doesn't mean I won't come back and, like Kathryn did, write more

Coreography-wise I can't even give a shot, because I'm not a figure-skater. But if you just keep doing what you do, with the coreographers you work, I'm sure it'll be beautiful. Keep up with the amazing footwork you always do and the even more amazing quads if possible, no matter what the f*¨%# the judges or the dumb part of public opinion say or do

In terms of costumes I'm no good either, 'cause unfortunately I can't draw Like people are saying, the color black suits you very well, and so does red and dark green. I love any kind of gloves, too! But, seriously, if you decide to skate with a pair of old jeans and an old white sleeveless shirt, it won't make much difference (except if those clothes don't give you enough liberty of movement), you'll skate as good as with any elaborate outfit and nobody will complain!!!

Now, as far as music is concerned: Piazzola and Gardel, that many people are suggesting, are the classics of tango...but when I first listened to this song, Allerdings http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udYzFsyU7yg I immediately thought it'd be perfect for skating. It's a techno-tango by a group called Otros Aires. Their songs are all very good (Los Vino http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j64zU6hwZOM is also wonderful!).

However, as a fan of rock/heavy metal, I would feel to see these genres more often on ice hehehhe! Needless to say, the songs can be edited to fit better:

-Rush (Subdivisions http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LunOB0G1ZyY Red Sector A http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzXDi_f9PUY The spirit of radio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Tq-UsaRchI).

-Shaman(these songs start slow and then "explode": Fairy Tale http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0aCjjRNYKc; Innocence http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKxMMt4q54g; or maybe More http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C33VHl3uESM)

-Savatage Mozart and madness: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agU2R5u3df4 and Christmas Eve (Sarajevo 12.24)

-Trans-Siberian Orchestra("if Beethoven and Mozart had turned metal" ): The fifth: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWSLYlJ39Qw ; A last illusion (bumblebee): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_Qc5YYp4Cg ; Mozart's medley: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ismZ3ewcOZY ; A mad Russian's Christmas: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0ceYiyALAE)

-Andre Matos(When the sun cried out: http://www.youtube.com/v/J2chuZzaAuc or The Myriad: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=or6KRaW-2zA)

A lot of people are talking about Queen, and I think it's a very good suggestion! I've heard that you've already skated to I was born to love you, but I never saw that video, unfortunately. Don't stop me now, Crazy little thing called love (which is their tribute to Elvis - someone mentioned the song A little less conversation and I liked it very much, too! Return to sender is another great song by him), Who wants to live forever , Teo Torriate (there's also this cover version of it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ices-cXCwe0)...there are just so many of their songs that would be possible to use...or maybe a medley?

Also, a medley of Madonna perhaps would be nice...her latest albums, Confessions on the dance floor and Hard Candy have very good moments that could be used. In fact, for another funny "Asissay/Sex bomb-style" presentation Material Girl or Erotic would be nice, hahaha! Also Shania Twain's Man I feel like a woman or any song by George Michael (I want your sex , Father Figure ) or Village People (such as Macho Man ...oh no!!!).

Songs from the 50's/60's could also be fun to do (like you did with Only You): Papa oom mow mow, The twist, stuff like that...

And finally, a completely crazy idea from my own country: Edson Cordeiro & Cássia Eller singing Queen of the Night+I can't get no satisfaction (yes, the Rolling Stones song with a part of The magic flute - the woman sings the male voice and vice-versa): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGlHycQHTTY

Sorry about the long post (thank you if anyone has read it all), I just wanted to speak my mind (all of it! )

[Anuradha]

By the way:

COSTUMES: Don't wear anything Indian style dress like ice dancer pair Charlie White, because this outfit
hide your body. And I don't wanna keep your body hide, I wanna see it allways!

http://www.lifeskate.com/.a/6a00e54f7ec ... 970b-250wi <--- Charlie White with Indian dress.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmJcOC3ZN5s <--- This is allso so COOL and HOT song!!! NO NO from Kyun Ho Gaya Na -movie.


viewtopic.php?f=3&t=156&start=40 <--- There is my idea for musics...

[Hirorin]

Hello Zhenya,

Greeting from Japan.
I love all your programs and performances, espeically Tribute to Vaclav Nijinski, which I felt like seeing Nijinski's life through your performance...!

Here the programs that I would like you to perform if you have a chance;
- SP: Livertango by Astor Piazzolla
- LP: Romeo and Juliet by Sergei Prokofiev
- EX: Jupiter from The Planets, Op.32 by Gustav Holst

- Choreograph: Personally I am interested in how you would express Tatiana Tarasova's program and would like to see sometime in the future.

I would be very happy if you could consider the programs above and come to Tokyo for 2011 World Championship next year!!! I am sure you will bring great programs with you then in front of us!!!

Take care and wish your knee surgery will go well.

Hiromi

[laurel laurier]

Nice to write to you, Zhenya.
I'm a japanese girl, postgraduate.
Your message was really a surprise!
I'd like to say Thank You about giving us such an interesting opportunity.

Then, I'll show you my suggestions at once.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# SP or LP

Ennio Morricone (from the italian film "NUOVO CINEMA PARADISO")
01. "Tema d'Amore" : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RwDf2DCX_1A

This tune is so emotional, dramatic, beautiful, and maybe famous enough.
It's only IF, but if you skate with this melody drawing tears...ah, that must be wonderful!

Hildegard Von Bingen (arranged by Richard Souther)
02. "Fire of the Spirit" : http://www.amazon.com/Illumination-Mari ... B0000029V6 (Tr.2)
(...Sorry, I couldn't find a full version on the trial listenings.)

This tune sounds spiritual, but has a little bit insanity -- like your Nijinsky's program.
Hildegard is a great female wisdom who lived the 12 century.
I'd like to see your skating with this tune arranged by Mr. Marton.
I think, it may be able to remix with "Panis Angelicus", famous requiems, or several spiritual tunes.
However, it is perhaps not a major tune, so I would mention this as only a reference...

Of course, I love your skating with the classical music, too.
I'm sure that your sensitive performance truly harmonizes with Chopin, Rachmaninoff, or Tchaikovsky.
Uh...if I had only known enough about classical music, I would make much better suggestion!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# EX

First, I have to say that I listed too many, sorry...so I made a playlist.
If you are interested by the examples, then please listen to the other tunes in my playlist.


* INSTRUMENTALS : Playlist - http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p ... 8F1F59F2FE

I really love your fast step, and would like to see the step which looks like Celtic or Ethnic Dance.
Or...for mystic, solemn, and fantazy performance, how about these?

Secret Garden "Steps" "Moving" "Windancer" "Escape(This one's rhythm is 5/4 and the irregular time!)"
03. "Moving" ： http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yi7_hiL4Nu4

ADIEMUS "CANTUS-SONG OF THE SPIRIT" "CANTUS-SONG OF THE ODYSSEY" "EIN WIENER WALZER (A VIENNESE WALTZ)" "THE ETERNAL KNOT"
04. "CANTUS-SONG OF THE ODYSSEY" ： http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhzwwpYPZMM
05. "EIN WIENER WALZER (A VIENNESE WALTZ)" ： http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3yt3_9W9bw

And the tunes from japanese animation (but I'll suggest these only for image or inspiration).
I feel these are a little bit similar to some film music, or perhaps classical music.

Takahito Eguchi "TB_No.45_resolution" "TB_No.05_Trinity Blood" "TB_No.02_reminiscence"(from the japanese animation "Trinity Blood")
06. "TB_No.45_resolution" ： http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JB7lbslSWc
(This animation is an adaptation of the novel written by Sunao Yoshida, and illustrated by Thores Shibamoto.
The costumes and illustrations Miss Shibamoto imaged are also beautiful...)

Youko Kanno "shiro, long tail's" "sad moon" "go to "rakuen" "(from the japanese animation "WOLF'S RAIN")
07. "shiro, long tail's" ： http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsvUHGqd1Cg


* SONGS

I select these because I think their lyrics are suitable perhaps...

08. Andrea Bocelli "Con te partirò" ： http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wdx5nGphnAI
09. Andrea Bocelli "Vivo per lei" ： http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6MhjhMtq7s
10. Laura Pausini "Il mondo che vorrei" ： http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4C_3kraq6pI
11. Journey "Open Arms" ： http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lLmYLw0WRI
12. Secret Garden "SLEEPSONG" ： http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjUX3CeRUZI

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thank you for reading such a long letter. I wish these make some inspiration...
I believe and hope that you surely create the amazing programs with your good satisfaction.
I'm so looking forward to the day when I can see them!

Well...please take care of yourself, Zhenya.
Пока-Пока-Пока!
