wfuckinga Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Watch out David Hasselhoff, it seems that Germans love Axl Rose too. Germany’s husband-and-wife pairs figure skating team — Maylin and Daniel Wende — skated to an instrumental version of Guns N’ Roses 1992 hit November Rain during Thursday’s team competition in Sochi. The Wendes had a a fine routine that was good enough for sixth place in the team competition. Their main slip-up was a timing error on their side-by-side triple toe loops. The ochestral arrangement is from German pop violinist David Garrett. Needs more Stephanie Seymour. http://ftw.usatoday.com/2014/02/germany-guns-n-roses-olympics-figure-skating/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scumcat Esq. Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 (edited) Damn! I missed it since I'm not that much into figure skating. And nobody told me. Update:I was lucky enough to watch the replay. It was so beautiful that God came down from heaven, everybody stood up and put their right hands on their heart, and children started dancing in the hallways. Although skating to the original would've been better. Edited February 8, 2014 by Scumcat Esq. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niceguy Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Should've gone with an actual GNR song by an actual GNR band member, like Mi Amor or Ballad of Death. Those are far more well-known to the general public, anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
