Shall we ice dance?

Watching the ice-dancing finals. So far, it seems that every team, regardless of country of origin, has skated to music out of USA history -- jazz, Broadway, Big Band. Interesting.

Both American pairs should have been ahead of the Italians. I also think that the top American pair should have been ahead of the Russians. I noticed that some of the pairs are skating very far apart from each other. At least all three of the American pairs will be in the top nine.

I think that the tune is hokey and nearly a half dozen dancers have skated to it.
