This part is the best of the whole performance in my opinion. I love how it first starts off with the two elegant lead ladies and then the men come in with tap shoes on. I love the beauty and elegance of the two lead ladies. Such powerful characters. Moves me so much!
I used to have the whole show on video when I was younger, I used to watch it EVERYDAY. This dance is by far my favourite and the one that sticks out the most.
This is the best, the most perfect, the most wonderful dance in the world! I love this show, I LOVE irish dance! This is brilliant, It's even difficult for me to find words to discribe what I feel when I watch or dance the irish dance :)
I would like to team up with Matthew Vaughn and Marv Films to bring "Lord Of The Dance" to the Big Screen as a major film biopic set to Michael Flatley's life and the 1997 stage phenomenon.
When I was a chilld my father often showedf this to me and my siblings. He is the kind of person that knows how to appreciate this. After that I would always sing the tune with my sis when we got to rush to do something. Too do do ;d. I just did it this morning in a hurry of making my bed which made me remember that and actually look it up!
Watching this reminded me how much I LOVED Michael Flatley and LOTD when I was young; he inspired me so much. I'm now an acting major, but sad that I never got into dance.
i could look at them for days. But maaan, it is so great to sit in front of they while thy perform! One of the moments ill remember as long as i live. And they did this last part 4 times!! I cried :)
Seen this show 3 times in real life now, and i can't wait till one of the troupes is in the neighbourhood again. After 3 times I m still as impressed as the first time I went. It's amazing, fabulous, fantastic,...
Esta música y sus bailes,hacen que uno tenga más ganas de disfrutar de la vida y de la música,es excitante y la sangre corre mejor al escucharla,gracias Irlanda.

Thank you! My daughter played it as a violin solo in her final concert as a senior in high school (1999) and we could't remember the name of the song, only that she remembered it was from Lord of the Dance.
I SO TOTALLY LOVE THIS! I really enjoy borrowing the movie of Michael Flatley from the library. But I LOVE TO WATCH IT LIVE and in person. I have only gone to see it live twice in my life and both times had different settings, same story line, same moves... IT ROCKED!!!!
"When i feel like everything in life has let me down, and I'm at the end of my tether, and i have nowhere to turn, i watch this video and realize our civilization is toast."
I've said this many times before, but that's some bloody impressive footwork. I can't even begin to fathom the years needed to practice this. So bloody awesome. Hats off to these girls and boys.
This is an amazing way to start the day! No one does this better! Being a pure (Scots) Celt myself, this kind of energy in dance is in our blood. Absolutely akes my breath away to watch Michael Flatley and his dancers.
I would like to team up with Mathew Vaughn and Marv Films to bring "Lord Of The Dance" to the Big Screen as a major film biopic and epic motion picture set to Michael Flatley's life and the 1997 stage phenomenon.
as far as i remeber the name of the song was Riverdance !!! and Michael is extremley amazing he makes me feel so alive when i watch this clip is like nothing else matters !!
I saw the original Lord of the Dance with this cast--Michael Flately, the two women here, etc.--on their original tour starting in the USA. It was phenomenal, one of the best shows I've seen and I've seen a lot!! Trivia: Michael was a champion Irish dance for a long time but he grew up right in the Midwest USA, in Chicago, and talks a lot in interviews about realizing the American Dream! Yep, he sure did!
Dear Celtics! You are some spiritual-brothers of the Transsylvanian Seclers (ancient-Hungary) in the Dance and the Music! I hear your soul-rhymes with some beatifull heart-suffer from km-thousands and from survived centuries! Give you the gods the best healh, happiness, and glory to every Celtics!!!!!
I would like to team up with Mathew Vaughn and Marv Films (Eddie The Eagle, Stardust, Rocketman, Kingsman and Kick-Ass) to turn "Lord Of The Dance" into a major motion picture set to Michael Flatley's life 1997 stage phenomenon.
I saw this last night in Providence. I loved it, it was like nothing I've ever seen. We got to meet the 2 lead guys and girls after. They were so nice! :)
I love Irish/Celtic music, it sounds unique from other types of music, no music in the world sounds like Irish/Celtic music, plus my family roots are Irish/Celtic, I am 25%
It is amazing. Just remember that Michael Flatley's dancing troupe here are not only Irish, they're Irish, British, American...from several countries actually. I saw this on the making-of dvd :-)
Saw Michael Flatley 5 times, yes I said 5 times, in Lord of the Dance when he preformed in Chicago. This segment is just thrilling. It always sets my heart pounding. Love Irish dance.
I started swaying to the tin whistle, then i was hooked on the beautiful dance at the start. THen i got closer the music got faster i sat there in Awe!! I got closer and closer to the laptop screen. ONe thing to say! FRIG THESE GUYS CAN DANCE! its amazing to see how quick their feet go and kicking and turning and oh gosh amazing. Must say if i did that i would land smack dab on my tooshie ha ha wi only wish.
I'm amazed at some of the negative comments I see when I view Lord of the Dance vids. The timing, grace, and athleticism of the dancers is awesome. I STILL don't know how they do it! And c'mon.....What man hasn't fallen in love at least once with the 2 female leads.....Bernadette Flynn and Gillian Norris? (haha). The cute blonde fiddle player? Mairan Nesbit (I think that's her name).....She's part of the 'Celtic Woman' ensemble now. Anyway, great shows. Real talent.
I would have to say for me that Lord of the Dance and Riverdance are one of my favorites. Although Riverdance will always be my favorite. It's what I saw first.
I'm not gonna lie here, I have watched this video nearly everyday for the past two years. To me, this serves as an inspiration. Look at what he can do. Heck, it encourages me to continue my work. Photography, Martial Arts, and many more.
And to think he's teacher said that he was to old to learn. Aside from the fact that I myself agree that I'd hate having to keep my arms down and dancing someone elses steeps he's mind blowing. So glad to see him dancing again but this one is still my fav.
I danced in the morning when the world was begun, And I danced in the moon and the stars and the sun, And I came down from heaven and I danced on the earth, At Bethlehem I had my birth. Refrain Dance, then, wherever you may be; I am the Lord of the Dance, said he. And Ill lead you all wherever you may be, And Ill lead you all in the dance, said he.
This part is the best of the whole performance in my opinion. I love how it first starts off with the two elegant lead ladies and then the men come in with tap shoes on. I love the beauty and elegance of the two lead ladies. Such powerful characters. Moves me so much!
Michael Flatley cracks me up, I love how excited he is to be on stage dancing :D
Michael Flatley is DA Man!!! This is so awesome. I always liked Celtic music and I love this dance style!
Michael Flatley..just amazing..I saw Lord of the Dance several times..So stirring it almost makes me cry happy tears..Loves loves loves it!
I remember watching this in my younger days. It was simply magical.
Imagine if "Lord Of The Dance" becomes a major motion picture set to Michael Flatley's life and the 1997 stage phenomenon.
I used to have the whole show on video when I was younger, I used to watch it EVERYDAY. This dance is by far my favourite and the one that sticks out the most.
I taught line dancing for years and "Lord Of The Dance" was loved by all.Great song--great dance.
It should become a major motion picture on the big screen.

Trying to watch this without tapping, or moviing my feet in some way is freaking impossible. Love this!
When I was a chilld my father often showedf this to me and my siblings. He is the kind of person that knows how to appreciate this. After that I would always sing the tune with my sis when we got to rush to do something. Too do do ;d. I just did it this morning in a hurry of making my bed which made me remember that and actually look it up!
Celtic music takes me to another place...this is the music of my heart! Beautiful! Sending love from Greece!

When I went to see them, they did like the final 7 times in a row!! and this is a great song from the Dubliners. ^^
Michael Flatley was, is and always will be The Lord of The Dance.

I own the DVD's of all his dances. I love it so much.

"When i feel like everything in life has let me down, and I'm at the end of my tether, and i have nowhere to turn, i watch this video and realize our civilization is toast."
I've said this many times before, but that's some bloody impressive footwork. I can't even begin to fathom the years needed to practice this. So bloody awesome. Hats off to these girls and boys.
I still smile as soon as Flatley hits the stage, dancing, love it, and never get tired of watching it..talented man
I still cant beleive that I went to see them for my 22nd birthday!!! I had such a blast!
Brilliant interpretation of the hymn and I love this song!
Finally a video of the whole song with the performance of this group gathered by Michael. It's just plain awesome.
I can just watch this over and over. It never gets old
Love this dance is amazing...Bahamas loves you all!!!

I love this part of the show when Michael flies out from the wings. seeing him live in couple of weeks wooo hoooo : - )
Saw it tonight in Eugene Oregon. great show- liked the addition of the video screens for backdrops.
And to think he's teacher said that he was to old to learn. Aside from the fact that I myself agree that I'd hate having to keep my arms down and dancing someone elses steeps he's mind blowing.
So glad to see him dancing again but this one is still my fav.
Man, the irish knows their footwork! That's some pretty fancy prancin'! 50/10 - hands down!
I danced in the morning when the world was begun,
And I danced in the moon and the stars and the sun,
And I came down from heaven and I danced on the earth,
At Bethlehem I had my birth.
Refrain
Dance, then, wherever you may be;
I am the Lord of the Dance, said he.
And Ill lead you all wherever you may be,
And Ill lead you all in the dance, said he.
