I am a Celt and my people were here ten thousand years before the English came to these islands,this makes me realise our wonderful culture and tradition ,and language that we have retained,the Scots ,the Welsh ,the Irish ,the Cornish and the Northumbrians.Let’s hope Michael and his wonderful dancers keep the Celtic flame alive.
I've been lucky enough to see Riverdance twice live and it was absolutely phenomenal! The sounds of the footwork and the music went through me, I cried both times it was incredible! x 👏👏🥰
Michael Flately is just one of those charismatic, highly talented and lovable people who grace this earth during our lifetime. I am privileged to be able to watch his dancing. I cannot thank him enough for the pleasure he gives. Thank you, thank you.
After i once saw Lord of the Dance, i fell in love with Celtic culture, and even chose it to be the theme of my qualification work in Moscow University. 20 years passed and i am still in love
I don't know why, but the real reason I watch this is just to hear the tapping of the shoes. It just has its own rythm and fits so nicely with the music, like a duet.
So pleased this came up on my recommended list. I took my late Mum to see Lord of the Dance in Manchester in 2002 or 2003. One of those treats for a lady in her 80s. We stayed overnight in a hotel which again was unusual for her. I’ll never forget the look on her face, she was fascinated as was I. Precious memories
I am German and my people came to England after the Roman's quit. I still have a deep fascination and connection with the British Isles. I can't wait to go and see it with my eyes
Go while you are young. Don’t wait until later. It will impact your understanding of history and your studies in general to see this part of the world, her people, and deep past. Start saving and go as soon as possible. Don’t miss the northern parts of the UK. Some of the most ancient artifacts of the Norse invasions and the influence of Viking culture have been found there. You will never forget such a trip!
In 1998 I saw Riverdance on TV and I was lost from the very first second. Over an hour and it was the most amazing show I've ever seen. Michael Flatley is just amazing!
The beauty of essence of life, you can truly hear the silence in the flute and the upcoming peacefull meaning of life.This is real Celtic Mystical Music. I keep on liking this , it is real music made by quiet humans.
Nie werde ich diese Show vergessen, als ich sie vor Jahren live gesehen habe. A macig, absolut, amazing wonderful. Meine Füsse konnten nicht still sein, so anziehend, das Auge wat gefesselt. Unglaublich, sensationell zugleich Spektakulaer. ❤❤❤❤💃💃💃💃💃
Какой талант. У этого ансамбля. Настолько пластично и грациозно двигаются в танце. По неволе вспомнила один концерт . К нам в омск(россия) приежала похожая группа в 2011г . Там тоже великолепно было. Правда названия я уже не помню. Столько лет прошло. Хотелось бы еще на них посмотреть.
He's a brilliant brilliant dancer and I will never tire of watch them all dance. I wish to God that I was fit enough to do this. I have the first video of Riverdance, I remember watching it with my grandson when he was a toddler and he was just mesmerized by the dancing. 🙏🏻❤️
!!!!! I fell in love in the 90s. Watched all obsessively. Took my nephew to see him live in Washington DC probably age 7 or 8. Fast forward ❤ He has a son now born this summer and he plays this video for him. ❤ I almost died when he shared this news. Kids remember everything!
Non riuscirò mai a trovare le parole per esprimere tutte le emozioni che provo...voglio ringraziare per avermi regalato la BELLEZZA! Siete una forza della natura. Grazie dal profondo del mio cuore ❤
Every so often someone extraordinary makes an appearance in our lives and Michael Flatley was such a person. He was brilliant and a talented showman. Imagine the hours of choreographing these shows to the perfection they were. He had the dream and brought it to life. To his critics I say ... your puny remarks are as nothing compared to the thousands of people who enjoyed his shows. I wish I.had been one of them.
What I wouldn't give to be able to see a show like this in 2023. Or even later on. Just listening to it at work or throughout the day gets me pumped. I love this so much.
I dont know how people can watch and listen to this beautiful mad music and not want to leap.for joy. Always wanted to be a dancer never got the chance! I love the whole of it music dancing costumes etc. English folk can be quite boring in comparrison...although not all. What people also never see when watching all this wonderful production is all the hours mainly mothers of these dancers all spent taking their children dancing!! Without which none of this would be possible.
Can never see his shows too many times! Have seen LOTD 3 times but unfortunately after Michael retired 😥. Still just as amazing, mesmerizing, heart stopping and beautiful. Bucket list to see one more time ❤️
8:20 there's always some stoic in the middle of the crowd totally unmoved 🤣🤣🤣 How that is possible in the midst of such a stunning performance, I cannot fathom! Then again to each his own... 😃
Was blessed to see River Dance (after Michael Flatly left), LOTD, and Feet of Flames (with Michael Flatly) live in Seattle. Fabulous and so inspiring. Believe both LOTD shows were on their 1st tour of the USA .
КАКАЯ КРАСОТА, КАКОЕ МАСТЕРСТВО!!! ВЫСШИЙ ПИЛОТАЖ В ТАНЦЕ!!! БРАВО, СКОЛЬКО СМОТРЮ, НИКОГДА НЕ НАДОЕДАЕТ!!! ВОТ БЫ В ЮТУБ БЫЛ ИХ ПОЛНЫЙ КОНЕЦРТ В КАЧЕСТВЕ 1140 И ВЫШЕ, ЭТО БЫЛО БЫ, ПРОСТО ЗДОРОВО!!! ОНИ НЕ ТАНЦУЮТ ОНИ ЛАТАЮТ И ПАРЯТ НАД СЦЕНОЙ!!!💗💗💗💓💓💓❤❤❤
This was at Micheals peak in the 90s. Financial support, production costs, and public interest are almost obsolete It was during this time a cry out to preserve the heritage. ❤
I'm astounded by the comments about Michael Flatley re his ego bad dancing etc etc who do you think trains all of these lovely dancers to be absolutely step perfect time and time again despite painful leg and ankle injuries having to stand in dustbins full of ice water after the shows to get the swealings down, The man is a genius and seriously fit to be able to do this dancing show after show all around the world, to the complainers can you dance like that I know I couldn't I was there that night with my wife and it was one of the most stunning performance I've ever seen.
the only people that have anything negative to say about Mr. Flatley, do so, because theyre petty, jealous, or are having androgynous feelings about him, and it fucks with their inner machismo bullshit. Flatley is an astounding, remarkable human being and badass, an exceptional artist for all time, ...and the wet dream of millions of women... to be that talented, good looking, and fit, must be awesome..
Such negative comments undoubtedly come from the armchair critics who have their arses firmly wedged into the seats, emptying bags of snacks down their necks washed down with cheap fizzy pop and the only intelligible thing that can come out of their crops is a thunderous burp.
Riverdance May be my favorite Irish dancer show BUT this production will always go down in history as one of the best most iconic Irish dance performances EVER! So sexy so incredible.
I still find it mad to think that most of these dancers are in their late teens, during this performance, I've just entered my 20's and been dancing from a child, and only feel like I'm confidently at this level now, even though I'm irish born and bred with a father who was a champion dancer, which meant extra practice as a child I feel like I got better when I left competition and started doing it to keep my fitness up and for fun, it surprisingly surpresses my asthma, this will always be my inspiration, Bernadette Flynn and Gillian Norris are amazing athletes to me as a female, I will never forget my first time seeing this, I just fell in love
We saw Michael Flatley LIVE in Lord of the Dance at the Universal Amphitheater some years ago and it was the most spectacular live performance that I've ever seen. Nothing like see him live!
Wooow only amazing things, the dancers sometimes move like floating in the air, of course the music, is not only the dance, but the way they present it, of course, and even the cameras are perfectly coreographed, very impressed and grateful, cheers from Costa Rica, best wishes to Ireland and to the modern dancing celts 😊
I'm Irish and Micheal Flatley is the best irish American dancer he is super talented and his feet are so fast and the taps sound incredible.Hats off to Micheal for giving us Riverdance and Fleet of Flames and Celtic Tiger.
This is the most majestic heart-wrenching beautiful music I have ever heard it hits ur soul and ur intuned with the universe the dance calls u Frome a deep end part of our history a story of how life wonce was and should never be forgotten
His physique and dancing more polish like gold. Love his tap shoes, I bet it’s silver heels. I say this Michael is so gifted with those strong legs and man can he fly!!! Bravo. I miss his show in NY...
Riverdance was the first time I ever heard Celtic music, and it spoke to my soul. I now know why. I am a Celt. I don't care where I am, my family has ONLY been with other Celts. Don't ask me why, because I have no clue. I took a DNA test and I am Irish, Welsh, and English. This music calls to me, and I can't stay away!
I had the honor and privilege of seeing Riverdance in Louisville Kentucky 10 years ago. I was taken to a new Realm that left me forever changed. Proud of my Irish heritage ☘️
I'm only 1/IRISH, NATIVES AMERICAN INDIAN..PIMA,OTOE OMAHA,WINNEBAGO.im 47 love the music..I cry all the time.listening too all......my father was Thomas Mc Laughlin...he passed away of a heart attack..that's all I know.beautiful music
Hi Tina, I am sitting here in Ireland reading your comment. I am so sorry to read about your dad, I bet he was a lovely man and loved his girl so much, so sorry for your loss x
You have to start young to master this dance. Irish children (who want to learn to step dance) join dance schools and then engage in competitions between the schools. It's awesome.
Gaynor Mainwaring : my family saw Lord of the Dance at MGM Grand in 1997. It’s was one of the most amazing and mesmerizing thing I’ve ever seen! Even our 18 year old son was enthralled!!!
I'm love listening to Celtic music and watching them dance. I would love to go to Ireland so day. It has been a dream of mine since I was in high school.
flatley has always been a huge inspiration for me since before I could walk I would bop to his videos. What he has done is amazing and to be able to make a living out of something you love is incredible!
Hè payed a high price for it,hè has arthritis through his whole body,but God hè is a great teacher and his summer school back home is awesome,i danced with Mike in LOTD ROTD CT feet of flames,
Chaud Mila Failte !!! I feel the warrior spirit within my body, my soul and my spirit. I have Celtic roots in my family , and I literally feel like dancing when I hear the music. I love this .. It’s beautifully done, the choreography is amazing.
AWESOME AND AMAZING MICHAEL FLATLEY IS A GREAT DANCER I LOVE RIVERDANCE AND I LOVE THIS I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE WITH LOVE FROM PORTUGAL 😘♥️💜 👍☘️✝️💋🍀
THE most incredible dancing I ever saw. AMAZING. Could watch this forever. Brillient work, co-ordination, music, the lot. What fantastic choregrahpy !! First class, thank you so much. Glad I have Irish blood in me !!
Among the most powerful empires in the world have tried to take down the Celts, but they have never been able to, because we Celts know that true enduring power is not in swords and guns, but in the hearts of the people as expressed communally through the arts and our attachment to the foundation of our sacred lands. That is a power that continues unabated, and it can never be stolen from us, or starved out of us, or propagandized out of us or imprisoned. Celtic art, Celtic dance, Celtic music, Celtic poetry, Celtic theater, the cultures that tried to destroy us have nothing to rival the power and survival of our voices at the crossroads. (There's no "Roman section" in music stores, but every western music story has its Celtic music section.) We endure because we dance.
I LOVE THIS!!!! 'The Lord of The Dance' is truly a masterpiece! When it first came out in the mid-late 90's, I got it on VHS, then a few years ago I found it on DVD, but the DVD doesn't have one of my most favorite songs/dances in it!! The one that's missing is the one where the ladies and gentlemen are all dressed in bright colors, and during the dance the ladies lift their off the ground, while the men hold them up, all while going in a circle!! I'm almost wondering if there is a DVD with that in it at all! Hopefully I'll be able to find one!
I am in my 80th year and I never knew why that beat those feet they move my very soul. To then just this year I discover when testing out my DNA the reason became so clear and eclectic it said I was 99% Celtic and we are proud and and we are well bread and our genes around the globe well spread. So in truth it has to be said we conquered more hearts than any nation not to mention looks.
See you in Croatia, my housband and i waitting for you so long, when you where in Croatia first time, we had married, some other time we culd not come, but know we are coming...🎉🎉
I am half irish have the temper this is most definitely an IRISH..CELT dance orchestrated by a phenomenal person MR Flately and crew.❤amazing what precision one has to be in fantastic condition .love the irish period❤
One of my best friends is of Irish decent and she taught me a little bit of Irish when I was 11.....many many moons ago...but I can still do it 😂......love Irish music
I like how the monks comes on stage and awakening the little spirit, who then wakes the beautifuls ladies, which then call upon the lord, who comes flying, and summonds the whole tribe! :D Gosh i miss these shows!
I too am a Celt. My Cornish ancestors have been traced back to around 1768. The Anglo-Saxon "English" then added the Cornish to the English census. Until then my family had no surnames as the English knew them. My Daddee still has Christian first and last names. This video really stirs me.
Я обожаю ирландские танцы!!! Когда Король приехал с выступлением к нам в Донецк,у меня не было денег на билет.Я ехала домой с работы мимо театра,где он выступал,шло представление,а я плакала....Теперь думаю,что лучше бы заняла деньги,купила билет и пошла на концерт!!!❤❤❤❤
I'm American, but considered a half breed; Irish-German descent. Michael Flatley rules! And I'm very proud of my Irish blood. I LOOK Irish! I'm short, I have hazel eyes with lots of green and amber, my hair is dark blonde with a lot of red, my skin is white as white can be and I can't tan to save my life, and I'm fine boned and have the high cheekbones of my Celtic ancestors. I guess you could say I'm Viking Irish. Now, a very good friend of mine, he's Irish-Russian.(ikr?) He's a whole foot taller than I am, bit I wouldn't say he's big boned like the Slavs. He looks like a Pict. He has black hair, and the same hazel eyes I have. His skin is just as pale as mine and he can't tan, either! We're not related, but everyone thinks we're brother and sister, because our Irish traits make us look so much alike. We think it's pretty funny!
I am a Celt and my people were here ten thousand years before the English came to these islands,this makes me realise our wonderful culture and tradition ,and language that we have retained,the Scots ,the Welsh ,the Irish ,the Cornish and the Northumbrians.Let’s hope Michael and his wonderful dancers keep the Celtic flame alive.
They have to or they committing a crime.
"... and my people were here ten thousand years before the English came..."
Show me "your people" ( - ten thousand years ago).
Same here!!
@@Ahuramainyu The very fact that we're here now,means that we'here from the beginning of time n creation?..
You mean the Roman's
The English did not come to their own island my friend.
I grew up in Las Vegas. I've seen a lot of entertainment. But never seen anything so magnificent as this WOW! Wish I could see this live.
I've been lucky enough to see Riverdance twice live and it was absolutely phenomenal! The sounds of the footwork and the music went through me, I cried both times it was incredible! x 👏👏🥰
Фантастика!!!Супер!!!!
Michael Flately is just one of those charismatic, highly talented and lovable people who grace this earth during our lifetime. I am privileged to be able to watch his dancing. I cannot thank him enough for the pleasure he gives. Thank you, thank you.
Unico Michael Flatley
After i once saw Lord of the Dance, i fell in love with Celtic culture, and even chose it to be the theme of my qualification work in Moscow University. 20 years passed and i am still in love
He is unbelievably egotistical, thats from people who know him.... All nice and sweet to the public..... But his neighbours wouldn't agree
Extremely talented...not at all lovable. Karma was swift in paying him back. Hubris causes the fall of many men!!!
Very magical. ❤
It's the mystery, the haunting music, the beauty and the talent that keeps me coming back to watch this over and over again.
So glad it was recorded so we keep it.
I don't know why, but the real reason I watch this is just to hear the tapping of the shoes. It just has its own rythm and fits so nicely with the music, like a duet.
Amazing
Likewise. I think Michael Flatley is an insufferable peacock but I love the rest of the dancers and the SOUND!
The sound of tap shoes on the floor in rhythmic sounds is the most incredible sound ever!
I love the the silent steps of the soft shoe dances just as much.
Tap was conceived as another instrument added to the players. Listening should always be first.
So pleased this came up on my recommended list. I took my late Mum to see Lord of the Dance in Manchester in 2002 or 2003. One of those treats for a lady in her 80s. We stayed overnight in a hotel which again was unusual for her. I’ll never forget the look on her face, she was fascinated as was I. Precious memories
We took my husband s gran to Hyde park. Precious memories indeed!
Magical, enchanting, mesmerizing, uplifting dance!! Thank you and God bless you!
Yeah it’s amazing isn’t it every time I watch these I get chicken bumps or pickle bumps and Thank you for your comment and you stay safe everybody

I am German and my people came to England after the Roman's quit. I still have a deep fascination and connection with the British Isles. I can't wait to go and see it with my eyes
Go while you are young. Don’t wait until later. It will impact your understanding of history and your studies in general to see this part of the world, her people, and deep past. Start saving and go as soon as possible. Don’t miss the northern parts of the UK. Some of the most ancient artifacts of the Norse invasions and the influence of Viking culture have been found there. You will never forget such a trip!
Please go. And try to visit Ireland as well. I've never been to Ireland, but I hear it's a beautiful country.
In 1998 I saw Riverdance on TV and I was lost from the very first second.
Over an hour and it was the most amazing show I've ever seen.
Michael Flatley is just amazing!
Freya Moonlight Yes. It was and is magic.
I love Riverdance too, and I love Lord of the Dance, the show this video is from, even more.
Same for me👍💕
Michael Flatly is one of the Best Dancers in the World
98 begann frends neue Dimensionen
Michael is on a whole other level!
Beautiful dreamer!
Thank you for Riverdance!
The beauty of essence of life, you can truly hear the silence in the flute and the upcoming peacefull meaning of life.This is real Celtic Mystical Music. I keep on liking this , it is real music made by quiet humans.
Любимая ирландия,загадочная,таинственная...страна холмов,густих лесов,древней музики.спасибо тебе за гостеприимство,за красоту

Unglaublich, sensationell zugleich Spektakulaer.

Goosebumps ...if THIS doesn't touch you ...I don't know.....wow. Indeed FOREVER DANCING IN OUR HEARTS!

He has a son now born this summer and he plays this video for him.

Que esoectaculo cuando viene a Mexico nunca me lo pierdo.Esos pies que no tocan suelo!!!
Xfantastic!!
Yes he got pain in legs and feet. Arthritis rewards dancers harshly. At least he's still choreographing.
8:20 there's always some stoic in the middle of the crowd totally unmoved 🤣🤣🤣
How that is possible in the midst of such a stunning performance, I cannot fathom! Then again to each his own... 😃
Was blessed to see River Dance (after Michael Flatly left), LOTD, and Feet of Flames (with Michael Flatly) live in Seattle. Fabulous and so inspiring. Believe both LOTD shows were on their 1st tour of the USA .
КАКАЯ КРАСОТА, КАКОЕ МАСТЕРСТВО!!! ВЫСШИЙ ПИЛОТАЖ В ТАНЦЕ!!! БРАВО, СКОЛЬКО СМОТРЮ, НИКОГДА НЕ НАДОЕДАЕТ!!! ВОТ БЫ В ЮТУБ БЫЛ ИХ ПОЛНЫЙ КОНЕЦРТ В КАЧЕСТВЕ 1140 И ВЫШЕ, ЭТО БЫЛО БЫ, ПРОСТО ЗДОРОВО!!! ОНИ НЕ ТАНЦУЮТ ОНИ ЛАТАЮТ И ПАРЯТ НАД СЦЕНОЙ!!!💗💗💗💓💓💓❤❤❤
We need more of this amazing shows in 2020 😘
Sadly I feel like a lot of today's shows are all about the "glamour" without having any real substance.
This was at Micheals peak in the 90s. Financial support, production costs, and public interest are almost obsolete It was during this time a cry out to preserve the heritage. ❤
margareta mirauta YAS
AMEN. I would love love love love love of Michael Gabe the green light to have a new troupe of dancers revive this gorgeous show.
This didn't age well
I'm astounded by the comments about Michael Flatley re his ego bad dancing etc etc who do you think trains all of these lovely dancers to be absolutely step perfect time and time again despite painful leg and ankle injuries having to stand in dustbins full of ice water after the shows to get the swealings down, The man is a genius and seriously fit to be able to do this dancing show after show all around the world, to the complainers can you dance like that I know I couldn't I was there that night with my wife and it was one of the most stunning performance I've ever seen.

Those who can't always find ways to bring down those who can. It is the nature of jealousy/envy.
Jimbo jimbog well said, people who makes negative comments are losers, no dreams have they achieved, they’re nothing in this planet...
Such negative comments undoubtedly come from the armchair critics who have their arses firmly wedged into the seats, emptying bags of snacks down their necks washed down with cheap fizzy pop and the only intelligible thing that can come out of their crops is a thunderous burp.
His magic, & great dancing troupe, will never be eclipsed!
Some people just can't stand excellence, knowing they can't obtain it themselves...
Riverdance May be my favorite Irish dancer show BUT this production will always go down in history as one of the best most iconic Irish dance performances EVER! So sexy so incredible.

Hi Tina, I am sitting here in Ireland reading your comment. I am so sorry to read about your dad, I bet he was a lovely man and loved his girl so much, so sorry for your loss x
for a few moments i felt like i'm there, among that crowd, my heart was full of joy.
Emotional everytime I see this! One of the best shows ever for sure! 😄💃❤🌠
I really loved this greatest show .. 20 years ago and still the greatest show of the deacde .. but also the century! 😊
Celtic heritage at its best so hugely meaningful in so many ways one of my favs phenomenal 🔥🍀🌈☀️
You have to start young to master this dance. Irish children (who want to learn to step dance) join dance schools and then engage in competitions between the schools. It's awesome.
Linnaeus
When I was growing up in Boston In the 50’s, Irish step dancing groups were common. Many schools had a “team”. But it was always girls...
This guy is unbelievable what a stage presence

That is a power that continues unabated, and it can never be stolen from us, or starved out of us, or propagandized out of us or imprisoned. Celtic art, Celtic dance, Celtic music, Celtic poetry, Celtic theater, the cultures that tried to destroy us have nothing to rival the power and survival of our voices at the crossroads. (There's no "Roman section" in music stores, but every western music story has its Celtic music section.) We endure because we dance.
Beautiful words...I'm always so happy to be Irish
Oh how I've missed you Michael you are my favorite movie still
I just found this guy and I am in awe the stamina it takes must be crazy🦋
I've seen this live , not as many people and no Mr flatley AMAZING xx
Man oh man to have seen this live…
My whole body resonates and responds with passion to this show!!
I LOVE THIS!!!! 'The Lord of The Dance' is truly a masterpiece! When it first came out in the mid-late 90's, I got it on VHS, then a few years ago I found it on DVD, but the DVD doesn't have one of my most favorite songs/dances in it!! The one that's missing is the one where the ladies and gentlemen are all dressed in bright colors, and during the dance the ladies lift their off the ground, while the men hold them up, all while going in a circle!! I'm almost wondering if there is a DVD with that in it at all! Hopefully I'll be able to find one!
Natalie Staheli that dance is called siamsa

I bet this was SAVAGE to see LIVE, in person.
💚😎
As a Welsh-Irishman I must say , that in this music I heard the ancient voices of my ancestors .
Lovely!
Yea sure... 🇨🇮🏴🏴 But NOT 🏴
The best Irish dancer. Congratulations. Hope I could attend when You perform in México one Day.
Wow... such beautiful energy on stage ! Watching from South América, in 2023, a Celtic admirer. Warm hugs and infinite blessings.

I am in my 80th year and I never knew why that beat those feet they move my very soul. To then just this year I discover when testing out my DNA the reason became so clear and eclectic it said I was 99% Celtic and we are proud and and we are well bread and our genes around the globe well spread. So in truth it has to be said we conquered more hearts than any nation not to mention looks.
Thomas McConnell : Good man Thom...sure ‘‘tis in the genes alright!
It was there in your name all the time

The best! Changed dancing globally. A show of culture.
Every time I watch them dance, I get a weird feeling in my chest and my eyes water!! Lol! Could watch them all day.
You need to get that indigestion sorted out.
Hi Charli. That's because it's an amazing show and you're able to appreciate it.
ME, TOO..💓💓💓💓💓💓💓😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I like how the monks comes on stage and awakening the little spirit, who then wakes the beautifuls ladies, which then call upon the lord, who comes flying, and summonds the whole tribe! :D
Gosh i miss these shows!
Me too! I thought that was magic!
Este un fenomen..Depășește normalitatea ..Nu exista cuvinte valabile ..E dincolo de OM.
faux monks
All those girls are beautiful!!
Me too!
The part where their feet sounds like cantering and trotting horses gets my heart every single damn time! ❤
Piękny występ.
Pozdrawiam serdecznie z Polski 🇵🇱💐
One of the most beautiful wonderful artist event ever in history - MF is a legend and a gift from God.
I just realized in this version they change their outfits between the two parts. That is amazing on its own.
I too am a Celt. My Cornish ancestors have been traced back to around 1768. The Anglo-Saxon "English" then added the Cornish to the English census. Until then my family had no surnames as the English knew them. My Daddee still has Christian first and last names. This video really stirs me.
Я обожаю ирландские танцы!!! Когда Король приехал с выступлением к нам в Донецк,у меня не было денег на билет.Я ехала домой с работы мимо театра,где он выступал,шло представление,а я плакала....Теперь думаю,что лучше бы заняла деньги,купила билет и пошла на концерт!!!❤❤❤❤
Amazing music, wonderful dancers ❤👍👏
Oh my God, he is a total flamboyand...I LOVE HIM!!!
What a show ! 🤩I’m not particularly into dancing and this kind of stuff but this is simply magical, stunning performance, beyond words…
Wooo que espectacular nunca vi algo asi en mi vida ⚘️⚘️⚘️⚘️⚘️⚘️⚘️
what an amazing talent-so proud of my own Celtic heritage....
I'm Dutch and clompetely taken by the discipline. I am astonished by this act.
The celts
For the record
🇨🇮🏴🏴
im Irish and proud. love every bit of it
Paddy Hartnett.. I'm Australian but of Irish descent and VERY PROUD OF IT!!! :-)
I'm American, but considered a half breed; Irish-German descent. Michael Flatley rules! And I'm very proud of my Irish blood. I LOOK Irish! I'm short, I have hazel eyes with lots of green and amber, my hair is dark blonde with a lot of red, my skin is white as white can be and I can't tan to save my life, and I'm fine boned and have the high cheekbones of my Celtic ancestors. I guess you could say I'm Viking Irish. Now, a very good friend of mine, he's Irish-Russian.(ikr?) He's a whole foot taller than I am, bit I wouldn't say he's big boned like the Slavs. He looks like a Pict. He has black hair, and the same hazel eyes I have. His skin is just as pale as mine and he can't tan, either! We're not related, but everyone thinks we're brother and sister, because our Irish traits make us look so much alike. We think it's pretty funny!
ecclestonsangel me too and proud of it
Einfach mit Bravour hingelegt, däbin begeistert 😊❤
Saw one tgeir shows many years ago in Florida. Absolutely captivating 😊.
Fantastic show! Michael is awesome!
