Title: Germany's pairs figure skating team skated to Guns N' Roses at the Olympics Post by: Shiratamaniax on February 07, 2014, 12:11:57 AM http://ftw.usatoday.com/2014/02/germany-guns-n-roses-olympics-figure-skating/ :love:
Watch out David Hasselhoff, it seems that Germans love Axl Rose too. Germany?s husband-and-wife pairs figure skating team ? Maylin and Daniel Wende ? skated to an instrumental version of Guns N? Roses 1992 hit November Rain during Thursday?s team competition in Sochi. Sadly, the routine did not involve Maylin diving into a wedding cake or Daniel leaving the arena to shred an outdoor solo while wearing leather chaps.

Not the "usual" Welcome To The Jungle played at a sports game thing. :hihi: /jarmo Title: Re: Germany's pairs figure skating team skated to Guns N' Roses at the Olympics Post by: Axl4Prez2004 on February 07, 2014, 09:12:41 PM Pretty cool...
although personally, I'd think This I Love would be a kick-ass background to some beautiful figure skating.

Since I read your post I have to agree with you, the soft & loud tempo would create a beautiful figure skating routine. Plus the song isn't as 'in your face' so the audience would enjoy it too. Have you thought about taking up figure skating for the next winter Olympics, could make it a hit song around the world again if you won? :yes: Title: Re: Germany's pairs figure skating team skated to Guns N' Roses at the Olympics Post by: Shiratamaniax on February 08, 2014, 05:54:34 AM That's pretty random!

We often hear WTTJ and YCBM at a sports news program on Japanese TV :D I try to find the video of their performance, But I still haven't found what I'm looking for.. :P Yeah, This I love would be great for figure skating!

I'd perform to a medley of the 4-song trilogy (yes, only in GNR-land is there a 4-song trilogy) of Don't Cry, November Rain, Estranged, and This I Love. Talk about a Quadruple Axl!!!! :hihi: Title: Re: Germany's pairs figure skating team skated to Guns N' Roses at the Olympics Post by: Lord Stan on February 08, 2014, 11:57:03 AM This is not their performance at Sochi, but I found it!! :peace: Cheers :peace: "Performed by David Garrett" How even more cool this would be if it was performed by Mr. Rose :hihi: |
