If you could skate to anything, absolutely no restrictions on time/vocals/etc, what would the songs be?

For me:

-Colors of the Wind - Pocahontas
-Hellfire - Hunchback of Notre Dame
-Nostalgia - Yanni
-Through the Eyes of Love - Britt Nicole version (my parent's wedding song, the original version was anyways lol)
-Bells of NYC - Josh Groban (actually am skating to this)
-Goin' Down - The Pretty Reckless
-RENT - RENT the musical
-Out Tonight - RENT the musical
-What You Own - RENT the musical
-Boulevard of Broken Dreams - American Idiot the musical
-Totally F*cked - Spring Awakening the musical


There's SO many more..... from those songs alone you can figure out I'm a disney and musical buff ;)

As long as I'm really allowed to skate to anything (even if it doesn't really work as skating music, and even if I could in no way do the piece justice!!) then I'd love to skate to:

Pachelbel's Canon preferably done on a harp;
some Romany music I listened to many years ago;
David Fanshawe's African Sanctus (now, that would be a real b*** to cut!)


JHarer

If there were no little ears to offend, I'd skate to Jace Everett's Bad Things.

Sierra

I would skate to Linkin Park or Evanescence ;D They're alt rock/soft metal respectively, but both of them use piano and such extensively, so some of the songs would be usable for skating. I downloaded Audacity so I could play with LP's Reanimation album- a bunch of songs on there sound totally like classical with a hip-hop edge- unfortunately I haven't figured out how to use the program yet.

A girl at my rink has this music that I just love love love. I'm not very good at describing music, but it starts with two church bell tones, and the music that follows is slow and sorta sad. Then some other music is cut in- adventure soundtrack maybe?? I'm at a loss as to what instruments are used- terrible at identifying that sorta thing. And she skates it beautifully. She's d/a, 3s level, and the expression just pours out of her and all the jumps are in the right places for the music. Even though I hear the music probably ten times every time I skate in the afternoon, I never get tired of it.
