Actually I have seen a pas de deux that started out to You Shook Me All Night Long! It then went to a medley of rock songs ( I know Jump was one, and I think All Right Now was another). It looked great and the riders had somehow managed to get these songs sans lyrics. Not muzak either, the songs sounded exactly right, just no singing! I've seen a Beatles medley as well that was good. The London area seems to have really strong freestyles, the ones at a Trillium show I went to there a few years ago were superior to a lot of what you see at the National level.
<br />I have often wondered if Baker Street or Bullet with Butterfly Wing might work for a lower level freestyle, but I generally show National so if I ever get to the FEI levels they'll probably be too complicated to do to one song only.
