Not nearly enough credit for this piece of art! its nearly2022 and this program is still incredible and awe inducing! He was/is a true artist and magnificent skater!!!
Gene Kelly's performance has over six million hits, but to me this performance is worthy of just as many. Kurt did an amazing job, and I clearly remember seeing this original performance on TV back in the 90's.....I'll never forget it!!!!
I agree 110%. I've loved this since seeing it...also in the 90s. Does anyone know if Gene got to see this? It is the greatest tribute to his masterful piece that could ever be done. Thank you Kurt Browning.
I remember seeing the movie at the drive-in when it was first released. I skated on...wheels at the time and vowed someday I would skate on ice ~!!! I'm 80.
This is the best theatrical ice skating performance ever! Whoever choreographed and directed it should get a prize. Kurt Browning did a fantastic job, I feared through the routine that he would smash against a lamp-post or crash through a plate glass window.
What an amazing tribute to a beloved singer/actor/dancer/director and all around amazingly good guy in Hollywood !! I know that Kelly danced in roller skates, so I wouldn't be terribly surprised if he could ice skate too, but I'm sure he couldn't do the specific triples that Kurt did for competitions. This was a wonderful adaptation to the original and having seen the movie as many times as I have, I give Kurt a perfect 10 for his excellent rendition !
This is by far the BEST ice skating performance I've ever seen. I'm 71 years old and have watched figure skating all of my life. I've even done a bit of it and it's HARD! I remember when this was first aired. It was done in one take because the studio rain was rapidly softening and melting the ice.....This performance is perfection.
Kurt was one of those rare athletes who could do anything and was also a great person to be around and be supportive to all skaters. He took chances on every number, he never skated them the same way each time he skated. We need more innovative skaters today.
Still an amazing performance ...seen in 2022! Sorry. None of the current skaters could ever hope to equal Kurt. It's not just about the jumps...it's what occurs in between them that makes a Skating star and legend.
There's absolutely no other skater like Kurt Browning! When he finally decides to retire, that's going to be such a sad day for me. I wish there were still skaters like this today.
Even though he's a Canadian, I was always rooting for Kurt - one of my absolute favs and a master of skating - he could do it all - funny, whimsical, dramatic - the whole package. Was always sorry the Olympics was his nemesis - he's a Gold medal winner in my book!
OMGGG!!!! That performance was incredible !!! And let me tell you, ice is very slippery when water is pouring on it. Flawless performance. Thank you Kurt Browning1
Kurt is truly a gift to skating and an amazing entertainer! Singing In The Rain is also one of my favorite movies of all time. To see Kurt skate to Singing In The Rain is truly delightful!
Perfection ! Will never forget seeing this performance by Kurt for the first time. My Mother and I also watched Gene Kelly in Singing In Rain every time it was on T.V. back in the day. She knew all the steps to this dance. Thank you Kurt for this great performance. P.S. I still watch the film sometimes but it isn't the same without her now.
Perfect tribute. You can see the love in all the careful attention. Excellent adaptation from the original to the ice, even to using the exuberant gestures from Kelly's version. I'm not a fan of jumps but Kurt's were exactly right and brilliantly placed in this performance.
I loved Gene Kelly my whole life. When I first saw Kurt Browning it was clear that he was a talented dancer as well as a dynamic skater. He could move his body like no other skater and he got even better over time. This is a dynamite version on ice, choreographed by Sandra Bezic of Kurt Browning skating to Gene Kelly's famous, Singing in the Rain and has been a favorite for many years. I come back and watch it at least once or twice every year. Kurt Browning has been the my favorite skater since he first came on the skating scene in the 80's. On March 25, 1988 World Championships in Budapest, Hungary, he landed the first quadruple jump ever in competition. This accomplishment is listed in the Guinness Book of Records. Browning is also known for his footwork.
One genius paying homage/tribute to another! Two wizards of showbiz and entertainment!! Kurt is such a theatrical skater.. and Gene Kelly,--such a brilliant dancer!
I have always loved Kurt Browning, such a beautiful and talented skater. It is such a joy to be able to enjoy his performances all over again on You Tube. Thank you for allowing me to view this video again.
Wow, wow, wow! He nailed that! I am a huge fan of the movie! It's my go-to when feeling down. The way kurt did that with the rain, the umbrella and a hat. LOTS going on there, and on 2 thin blades! Wow! 🏅⛸️👍🎊 Love it!
MAN THIS VIDEO IS JUST ABSOLUTELY UNBELIEVABLY GREAT DYNAMIC THANK YOU FIGURE SKATER KURT BROWNING VERY VERY MUCH FOR THAT PERFORMANCE THAT WAS TRULY UNCANNY UNBELIEVABLE.
What a fabulous tribute to Gene Kelly. Kurt was awesome 🤩 Gene did a roller skate number in a movie and I think their moves were pretty similar. Great job Kurt. 💖😮
Where in heaven’s name was this filmed?? Can’t even imagine! Just a glorious tribute to Gene and Kurt…would be great to see both clips on a split screen!💕
Gene Kelly's performance in Singing In The Rain is one of the best movie scenes of all time. Kurt's ice rendition is by far the best skating performance I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot of them. Perfection, both performances!
Wow that's was fantastic and so many memories. Kurt Browning was so much fun to watch he made that performance seam so easy . For me he was the most artistic dancer. And always relax and happy .I remember the movie well and for sure he does exactly the same movies on skates . So much talent and hard work went into this piece Thank-you Kurt Browning and also Susy Nunes for Sharing this with me.💝
Kurt Browning was one of my faves as was this musical and Gene Kelly but I discovered this much later than I should have. I love how smooth and natural he moves, you forget he’s on ice (until he effortlessly flies into one of those great jumps!). Thanks for the upload!!
My dear Aunt loved this movie and she took me with her to see it. She would have also loved this ice skating version. Great skater, but he has retired now. 2023
I LOVE it!! Kurt, you’re the best skater for the Singing in the Rain!! I love Gene Kelly for his singing and dance. Singing in the Rain is my most favorite song! Thank you for honor him and you too! 😊👏🏻👏🏻 😊🤟🏻💜
A gene kelly of the ice, so inovative creative brilliant a good medicine for the soul. Funny kind gentle compassionate, and so amazing. Hes always got me smiling even in my darkest days.god has really used him to touch my life
Love this and yes you do have the qualities of Gene Kelly, not just in the dance style while you are skating, but I belief in the up beat fun personality too.
Brilliant! What talent, what absolute joy to watch. Thank you so much Kurt Browning. I wonder if Gene Kelly ever got the chance to see this, oh I hope so, it is sheer magic.
Sublime performance! Interesting to hear that Kurt has been compared to Gene Kelly. Gene Kelly appeared in a 1968 Peggy Fleming TV special. He displayed lovely smooth strokes forwards and backwards including backwards crossovers.
That’s a really good movie singing in the rain with Gene Kelly I have a DVD of it. It’s just a really nice musical with a great actor Kurt browning does a good rendition of it.
Not nearly enough credit for this piece of art! its nearly2022 and this program is still incredible and awe inducing! He was/is a true artist and magnificent skater!!!
Es espectacular
Superb! Dancing with props is tricky... ice skating? That's entirely a level of its own. God bless Kurt for all the joyous memories he's given us.
@@andreaberryhill6654The best ever!
His artistry took skating to a whole new level. What a brilliant performer!
Gene Kelly's performance has over six million hits, but to me this performance is worthy of just as many. Kurt did an amazing job, and I clearly remember seeing this original performance on TV back in the 90's.....I'll never forget it!!!!

It’s amazing and timeless - great since I somehow missed it back then.
I adore Kurt and his body of work ❤️🔥
Same here. Loved it back when and still do.
I remember seeing the movie at the drive-in when it was first released. I skated on...wheels at the time and vowed someday I would skate on ice ~!!! I'm 80.
This is an amazing tribute from an phenomenal skater to a a phenomenal actor/dancer. Two of my favorites.
Have always been a fan of both Kurt Browning and Gene Kelly. Stunning performance. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Best footwork master EVER!
No creative program will ever measure up to this TIMELESS performance.
Kurt Browning. Truly a phenomenal skater. So much talent so much style so much class. He was in a league all his own. Simply the BEST
I am 76 years old and I have to say there has never a skater that I have enjoyed more for his entire career! He is the tops as far as I am concerned!
This is the best theatrical ice skating performance ever! Whoever choreographed and directed it should get a prize. Kurt Browning did a fantastic job, I feared through the routine that he would smash against a lamp-post or crash through a plate glass window.
I also remember seeing this on TV back in the day. The performance was so magical that I will never forget it. So glad to see it again.
Me too and I've never forgotten it.

..what a beautiful tribute! I'm sure Gene Kelly would feel honored too..& would throughly enjoy this tribute ❤
Couldn't agree more. I, too, believe this is the most perfect skate-dancing routine of all time. Every bit as engaging as the original.
Happy Retirement Kurt Browning. Thanks for the memories.
Kurt was one of those rare athletes who could do anything and was also a great person to be around and be supportive to all skaters. He took chances on every number, he never skated them the same way each time he skated. We need more innovative skaters today.
The athletic skaters of today are remarkable, but I love the artistry of the skaters of the past. Kurt Browning is the best.
Still an amazing performance ...seen in 2022!
Sorry. None of the current skaters could ever hope to equal Kurt. It's not just about the jumps...it's what occurs in between them that makes a Skating star and legend.

I will always love this guy. Artistry at its finest.
I totally agree.
sheer genius and elegance ... ...no one ever can touch this....
OMGGG!!!! That performance was incredible !!! And let me tell you, ice is very slippery when water is pouring on it. Flawless performance. Thank you Kurt Browning1
Year after year I keep loving this. Kurt put the art and performance in routines leaving them anything but routine.
Kurt is truly a gift to skating and an amazing entertainer! Singing In The Rain is also one of my favorite movies of all time. To see Kurt skate to Singing In The Rain is truly delightful!
I smiled all the way through.
@@dawnsanford9294 Me too! He looked like he was totally enjoying his performance!
Perfection ! Will never forget seeing this performance by Kurt for the first time. My Mother and I also watched Gene Kelly in Singing In Rain every time it was on T.V. back in the day. She knew all the steps to this dance. Thank you Kurt for this great performance. P.S. I still watch the film sometimes but it isn't the same without her now.
I actually danced this dance in the pouring rain on a Vancouver street on my way home from work, complete with the black umbrella!
The most inventive skater ever. Just stumbled (bad word!) across this tonight and I couldn't take the smile off my face. LOVED it!
I love his absolute joy. You can tell he is happy
Best performance ever Kurt. I love it. Very well done!! One of my favorite moves.❤😊
We need more skaters like Kurt on the ice today. Love him N his style on the ice.
It looks so easy when he rides.He stands firmly on the rocks.He is a really good skater.❤
Still brilliant, can watch it over and over again. Thank you Kurt
Amazing. The fact that he is doing this on ICE makes it eclipse Gene Kelly's original. Bravo Kurt Browning.
Perfect tribute. You can see the love in all the careful attention. Excellent adaptation from the original to the ice, even to using the exuberant gestures from Kelly's version. I'm not a fan of jumps but Kurt's were exactly right and brilliantly placed in this performance.
Kurt has always been a favorite of mine. ❤
Wow! I could watch Kurt skating this routine over and over again!!
this is marvelous--I just noticed that he's skating the track of the song, foot steps and all. Goosebumps, all the way down...
Kurt, this is a wonderful tribute to Gene. and says a lot about you. Thank you so much for thinking of it and putting it here for the world to see.
It was fun watching Kurt skating his magical best…..loved it all over again….thanks Kurt!!👍💝

I remember seeing this back then and thought it was so creative and an impressive piece of work. His chirograhy was stunning!! Thanks Kurt!!
Fantastic, I think Gene Kelly would have loved it and proud that he had a fan as talented as Kurt.

Kurt Browning, along with Scott Hamilton are, Skate Gods For Life for their brilliant footwork #SkateGodsForLife
I agree! If there's another skater who could possible have pulled this performance off, it would have been Scott.
No one compares!
INCREDIBLE

Wow, this is sooo good it's almost Spookie!
This was fantastic. Never seen before. Definitely captured the moves of Gene. I will watch this many times.
Magnificent……💋❤️
I always loved that film, and your style of skating is very similar to Gene Kelly's dancing.
What a happy memory to watch this again!!!
That’s a really good movie singing in the rain with Gene Kelly I have a DVD of it. It’s just a really nice musical with a great actor Kurt browning does a good rendition of it.
Loved it!!
Perfect!

First time I've seen this! Wonderful!
