Well, girls, where are your emotions about In your eyes? ;D My first thought was "I don't like it" (as it happens quite often to me while watching Stephane's new programs for the first time ). Then I watched it again and again and then I was done - I LOVE it. It's so beautiful that the song seems to be too plain for it. P.S. To be honest Anastacia disappointed me a little - her voice is much stronger on tape than live

Only few people put their reaction into words on that page . I've read their posts (including yours, kadri) and am very thankful to you for sharing, but where are all others' emotions? A new program is usually like a bomb here but now it's just too silent

Okay, I’ll do my best. You know, when it comes to Stéphane’s skating it’s very difficult for me to put my emotions into words. Because the point is that they are emotions, and pretty strong ones too. His programs make me feel, touch me so deeply that I’m usually left speechless for days. The other night, when Stephanie2006 put the video on, I was chatting with a couple of friends. While it was downloading I’ve passed the video to them, since they love Stéphane too, and then I’ve made myself comfortable and I’ve watched it. Half an hour later one of them – once she finished crying over it - mailed me to know if I was still alive, or I was lying unconscious all over my laptop… Unlike you, Freefall, I’m usually hit by a new program of his like a blow in the chest. I can’t really remember a program I didn’t immediately fell in love with since… I don’t know, 2006? The last one it took me some time to appreciate was “You’re beautiful”. It doesn’t even matter if I already like the song he is skating on: once he works his magic on it, I can – and I will – fall in love with every single song he chooses. What the hell, I didn’t really like “Ne me quitte pas” before, and know I can listen to it on repeat for hours… I’m starting to believe I’m just hopeless When I’ve listened to “In your eyes” earlier that morning, when the girls linked to the song, it sounded like nothing special to me. And I have to admit that partly it’s because I’m among the ones that actually enjoy a lot programs like “Freak like me” or “Gimme more/Sexyback”, and I know Stéphane is likely to propose something like that only at Art on Ice, so I kind of wait for them all year. I totally understand why some fans don’t like them, and why they prefer his more elegant and poignant programs… in principle, I prefer them, too. But I do believe that kind of programs are part of him too, just another way to express the complexity of his beautiful soul, so I love them too, with all my heart. But the thing with Stéphane is: I don’t really think he can actually disappoint me, and after all those years I’m very aware of it. So I know it’s just pointless for me to complain about the song he chose, because in the end I’m going to love the program anyway (yeah, I’m that kind of hopeless ). “In your eyes” is no exception. It took my breath away and left me speechless and feeling so, so lucky to be alive and have the chance to see this kind of beauty while it’s happening, even if it’s just from a computer screen. I love every single step, every single move of his arms and hands. I’m moved by how his spins can be so damn expressive when he doesn’t have to mind about levels and points, when he can set them free to be whatever they feel like. I just love him a bit more - if that’s even possible - for the spirals, because they just show once more how much he listen to his fans, how much he cares for them. Basically, I’m just so grateful that he exists and he's so kind to share his amazing art with all of us. Well, it looks like Anastacia is not the only one who’s having a big case of Stendhal Syndrome *runs away in embarrassment* By the way, sorry for the mistakes. It was a bit challenging for me to write something like that in English

Thank you so much for your impressions, elorie! It was a very moving reading. You know after 2 years of being Stephane's fan I am beginning to think that I have the same diagnosis. I am just still unaware of it that's why I still complain sometimes about the music he chooses before I see the program

awww, elorie, no need to feel embarrassed i feel quite the same way most of the time. as you said - it's like he simply cannot disappoint he's given us so many great programs that our hopes and expectations about the new ones are naturally very high and yet he always manages to deliver. and it's a beautiful thing. it's part of Stephane's magic. and i'm so glad i've discovered him for myself and get to experience it and i think it's a good kind of hopeless

Thursday night's performance was so magical, it was like some sort of chemical reaction took place. It was so emotional, Anastacia was totally taken aback by it, don't think she expected anything like it. So I was apprehensive going into the show on Friday, thinking something like that couldn't happen twice. How wrong I was! It was even better. In her announcement, Anastacia said she had to warn the audience because a very special moment was coming up, a very initimate one. She spoke about love and about bonding and then started to sing. It was like the whole performance went up a notch and they both fed off each other reaching higher and higher levels. Anastacia sang it better than the previous night with so much emotion in every single word and each and every one of Stéphane's moves was excecuted with ten times more expression. At some point it just looked as if he was skating in slow motion because every move was held to completion. Stéphane was flying, Anastacia was flying and we were all flying with them. People were wiping away their tears left, right and centre. What a beautiful performance, it was just breathtaking. 100 points PCS easy! Just when you think it can't get any better... Right now I just feel blessed (and hugely annoyed that we don't have a video of this)Merci

Thanks for sharing, Nadin! I can only imagine how breath-taking it must've been. Although it's kinda hard to think that it could be any more magical than what we saw from the video from Thursday night. I'm so happy there's such strong chemistry between those two. I'm so happy for all of you who get to witness these moments live!!
