Prince passed away in April 2016, so he had died before Jeff and Yuzu put the program together (LGC premiered in Sept 2016). So he never saw it. However, I do believe that recently, a spokesperson for Prince's estate did comment favorably on Yuzu's interpretation of the song. Unfortunately I can't find the quote back, though.

Oh, sorry, I thought he had already skated it the previous season. So it was a tribute from the beginning?

I LOVE Etude so much that I'm having it as my ringtone :knc_brian3:. There's no other ringtone I've kept for so long except the default one :war:

 

My ringtone is one of the few things that is not directly Yuzu-related, but... in a way it is :space:

Yes, and Yuzu only skated it in the 2016-17 season. His last competitive performance of it, at WTT 2017, was in fact on Prince's birthday.

The good news:

I finally edited a version of Haruyo Koi with no commentary, clap or other noises. You can watch it on YouTube everywhere except Japan (it's the same with Hope & Legacy). Here it is:

 

 

 

Bad news:

I tried to edit a clap-free version of Requiem as well, but sadly it's not possible with my material. I found three different recordings of the piano piece, but none of them matches Yuzu's skating at all. They are either too fast or too slow or whatever... I tried to adjust speed and rhythm so that it fits the skating, but the sound gets so high-pitched or dissonant that it hurts my ears and not even the mixer or equalizer can help:13877886:

 

If anyone has access to the exact recording that Yuzu used in the 15/16 season and is free to share it... I would be so happy :tumblr_inline_mqt4gi8ECy1qz4rgp:

Thank you so much! Pure beauty!

Afterwards Youtube recommended me your edition of part of Let's Go Crazy on Hit the Road! Jack music; in spite of my wish not to watch LGC before tomorrow because of all what had been said I watched it and (without bad pun) it was a "hit". And Ray Charles estate seeming less picky than Prince's, it should remain online.

I think, I've never told the background story of this "Hit the road, Jack" overlay, right?

 

In the 2017 off-season there was a huge deletion wave on YouTube that hit Yuzu's LGC videos in the first place. You could barely find footage, only with muted or completely distorted audio. So I thought, it would be nice to upload an enjoyable version of his GPF performance that won't have any copyright issues. But I had no idea, how to do it.

 

Mom was joking that I should pick a different music piece that is not on YouTube's blacklist (so yeah, she was the trigger of this fun edit actually) :tumblr_inline_mqt4grU8ua1qz4rgp:

I tried out different audio tracks from my own library (mostly pop/rock songs) and then I stumbled across 'Hit the road, Jack' and randomly put the audio and the video together...

 

I totally lost it when I realised how perfectly Yuzu sings along with Ray Charles and even his nod was right on the note  :LOL:

 

So yeah. The result was: I could not NOT upload this gem on YouTube :embSwan:
