... wow.... wow... and WOW! I was privileged to be there. and over 20 years later, it still makes me smile from ear to ear. Hard not to since Brian beamed a through the whole program. When a skater smiles like it, it allows the audience into a very intimate place. I hope that some of those who saw Brian bravely battling injury to complete in the 94 Olympics will come here to realize that nearing a year later, with more time for recovery, THIS is how he skated. Takes my breath away.
Magnificent , Glorious performance of Carosel. He has done this performance many times . I've seen them all . But this one here , just blew all of them all out of the Ice , flawless execusion , and right in time with the music , is what I love most about Brian Boitano . Hes just so breathtaking to watch . The people who were there that night expireanced a performance that will never be forgotten. Bravo Brian , Bravo !
This is now my favorite of all his excellent programs because this time he doesn't seem to be concentrating but has gone to the next level. He has given himself to the rapture of the moment, body and soul. In these several minutes, he is not in a competition but in jubilant celebration. Brian is singing in the rain.
