Latin spirit oozed on the Winter Olympics ice Sunday night, though some of the skaters took a sharp turn as classics by the Rolling StonesEagles, Santana and Ed Sheeran got a spin.

Canada’s popular pair of Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir had a hit on their hands with a routine which opened with The Rolling Stones’ “Sympathy for the Devil” and segued into an acoustic version of Eagles’ “Hotel California” and Santana’s “Oye Como Va.”

Their spicy performance propelled them to a score of 83.67, breaking the world record they set themselves. Make no mistake, Virtue and Moir are the team to beat. And Twitter was blown away.

Competitors were encouraged to incorporate a Latin rhythm into their short routines, and many did just that, as skaters hit “Despacito” on three occasions.

Perhaps the French team of Gabriella Papadakis and Guillaume Cizeron didn’t get the memo, as they came out to a soundtrack of Ed Sheeran’s “Shape of You” and “Thinking Out Loud.”
