So now that Yu-na has announced that she will be competing the upcoming season, what music do you think she might choose? What programs would you like to see or think she may choose? Suggestions, opinions, all are welcome!

Personally, my dream is to see her keep her "Arirang" as her long. I feel like that piece is a masterpiece just waiting, waiting for the right time and stage to unfold and blossom to its full potential. I'd absolutely love to see it skated clean and to its full potential. For her short program, perhaps a classical piano piece? Based on Yu-na's record, she'll probably go for something dynamic in her short but I'd love to see a soft but nuanced music for her short program.

Bring back Lark Ascending and a new tango SP! :D I actually thought that both programs David Wilson did for Christina Gao for last season suited Yu-Na more than Christina. Well, the programs weren't very good, but that may be because they had to water them down for Christina. I don't know.

I'd also love to see her bring back Arirang.

Classical music like Thais would also be wonderful. Canon or Air are both pieces I'd love to see her skate to.

Keep Arirang for her LP! And maybe a classical Tango for her SP. If there's such thing as Classical Tango. :giggle:

It was like watching Michael Johnson come screaming down the stretch in Atlanta in 1996. You may not know why it's awesome to watch. You just know that it is." -MIKE VACCARO, NY POST

I for one would not mind at ALL if she used the same programs from last year! I would love to see her bring both programs to it's full potential! It would just blown my mind!

as ISU gave its permission for lyrics on music
I want her to skate on something really pop with a new style like 'Dont stop the music' or 'bulletproof'
or something jazzy like swing swing or salsa
a genre that she didn't try before in competition

I think Yuna should keep her last programs, I don't think she has skated the enough in competation.

I want her to keep Giselle and Homage, absolutely. As a big fan of yardbird, I want to see Yuna skate to one of his music, thou, Rodrigo Yuna, Tango Yuna, gypsy Yuna, Mozart Yuna, dark Yuna, angel Yuna, ..... Oh, I'm so excited!!! more classical peice is a great choice, too, (but not pop music). As Hoshi mentioned, after Sochi a lot of skaters will be using music with lyrics, but our queen doesn't need it at all. She is THE skater who can express music itself and i believe we will be watching that moment again in Sochi! Go Yuna, You can do it!

I love Arirang too, but I was under the impression there might be 2 new programs. Was it ever confirmed in the Korean press?

Oh, just think about it. How would "dark Yuna" be like?! I say take Giselle to its deeper sorrow and more madness and we'll see The Dark Yuna! Ugh, I just got chills!

I like the idea of a dark and light Yuna too. Infact, most of Yuna's annual programs are full of contrasts, and she is one of the rare few who can realise these concepts to their full potentials.

I wonder if she might revisit Tango again. I too would love to see a passionate sultry Yuna or something new, a grown up woman Yuna in her next phase of evolution.

David... wonder what is in that massive maestro brain of his!! Tick Tok Tick Tok ...

I feel ambivalent about Arirang. I love the program and would love to see her skate it again, but it is rather loaded because of its Korean focus. I'm not sure it if it might be easier on Yuna's nerves to skate something that's not so representative of her country and its people. She's already going to face enormous pressure as it is.

I don't believe so? I mean realistically speaking, Yu-na has roughly 3 months to get back in competitive form, a tough order by itself. It'd make sense to keep at least one of her 2011 programs for her health's sake imo.

You know, Yuna frequently mentioned that she wanted to do some Flamenco! I think this was her consistent idea since she watched Lambiel's Poeta and V/M's Olympic OD which are among her favorite performances.

How feisty and sensual she would be! She's already a natural dancer :respec1:

ITA. There's every good reason to start two new programs, yet there's every great reason to keep Giselle and Arirang :swoon1:
