Just saw Harry Potter....
.... and spent the entire time thinking about what a lovely program can be done to the soundtrack. When I was hiding from the movie, I was imagining some very nice programs to go along with the music. They have a very skateable soundtrack. Props to them for that.

A lot of people will probably skate to it. Just like the earlier HP soundtracks A TON of people skated to those. Anytime a major movie comes out (ex. Harry Potter, Pirates of the Carribbean, Peter Pan etc) it seems as though everyone and their brother skate to it. But there is a reason for that, it is VERY good music to skate to.

PS. the most used ever (at least in my region) was Pirates of the Carribbean, 2 seasons ago. At regionals I heard it about 10 times in one day. (possibly more and not an exaggeration)

There are still 2 people at our rink who are skating to it this year!

The most used music in my area was The Lord Of The Rings Music. Closely followed by Harry Potter and then Pirates of the Carribean. It really did get annoying after a while. Almost as bad as when you are at a competition and the play the Dutch Waltz over and over for 2 or 3 hours...

You know... I can't help but think whether there's a lot of kids out there that wanted to skate to LOTR, or just the coaches all chipped in for a LOTR soundtrack and are recycling their CD collection amongst all their students. (Wouldn't surprise me if they're also recycling their music cut tape too!)
"Okay, here's track 1's cut. Suzy gets it this year. Mary gets track 2. Next year, you two switch..."

I am personally offended by anybody who listens to hears any music, in film or otherwise, who does not instinctively imagine skating a wonderful program well beyond your ability to.
Those other people, the "normals", are the weird ones.

My coach says she can't listen to any music without thinking if it would be good for skating either as program music or show music! It's automatic for her! I do it to! So does my daughter! We own tons of soundtracks so we can skate to them (even it it's just for practice)

I was shopping the other day and bought a Disney CD for my niece for Christmas. Only I then had to take it into the rink to show our coaches, as it came with a freebie instrumental CD, for singing-along to - but I thought, ah, they might want to get that CD for their little ones to skate to! And when I found I had a karaoke CD in my collection (which I didn't buy on purpose - it came in a job lot of 3, and I did want the other two CDs; I don't do karaoke if I can help it), I promptly mined it for Husband's free programme music!

I think it's interesting that so many people hear skating music as they go through a day. I was listening to Christmas carols on a local radio station and thought of some cute program choreography that would work with the song.
I always judge music in movies and plays for skateability since I did my first program to a "West Side Story" medley! I've been cutting music for skating programs since 1982, so it's an occupational hazard as well. I agree, the GOF soundtrack has some tempting possibilities. The key is to find the 1:30 (or whatever time) that is familiar without being "Not again!". Personally I do NOT want to hear yet another "All That Jazz" program this year. I'll take fifteen HP programs over that.

The good thing about cutting your own music is the ability to make it more "original" and less likely to sound like someone else's music! I would love to hear something from a popular movie cut so it sounds completely different and unique....instead of the same thing (over and over and over.....)

Hopefully, iTunes, Napster, etc. will make it easier for coaches to get more variety in their libraries w/o breaking their bank account.
