I had the amazing and great fortune to be there live. Everyone was quiet. Everyone around me whether they were Canadian or Chinese or Japanese or Russian, we all knew we were watching one of the most beautiful and special things in the world. Deep down, we all knew we were watching the gold medal performance. The TV viewing audience knew about their Gold before them and us. It was one of the most amazing things I have ever seen. Thank you Virtue and Moir.
It's a beautiful performance, but except for Tessa and Scott's skilled skating I don't think it's a very original performance. I think Marina Anissina & Gwendal Peizerat "Romeo and Juliette" and "Esmeralda" are more memorable as program compositions.
@@cathyzhang7146its because of the music. the music has an almost religious feeling than most of the ice dances. Bolero had the same kind of espiritual depth
It didn't even feel like a routine. It felt like it was their own world and we were all just lost in it. I don't think I've ever been so engrossed in a skating performance and this is coming from someone who just discovered them yesterday.
А я их открыла для себя лишь позавчера..!!!!. Почему я раньше не знала их???!!!! И видя их танец, их взгляды, их чувства , их искренние эмоции наполняюсь счастьем... Восхищение..
I freely admit that when the Olympics started, I was rooting for the Americans out of respect for my country. But as soon as these two started skating, my heart belonged to them. This was the most breathtakingly exquisite dance I've ever seen on ice. Absolutely magical from start to finish!
It doesn’t matter what country you are from or live in! Yes…….I am very proudly Canadian, but I would give accolades to any other skating team in the world that can skate like they did! So very proud of them and absolutely amazed! True dedicated professionals! Go Canada go! 👏👏❤️
The way they look at each other even before they start skating is remarkable. These two really have a connection & chemistry & it’s like they’re giving each other special vibes. One of the reasons why they work so well together.
watching this feels like your intruding, they skate like no ones watching and it looks so personal to them... its strange to watch because not too many skating partners can do that! and they make it look so easy :)
Only one thing i,m worried, is what if he drop her head first? Its very dangerous, its your life thats more important than winning. So if i was them, i,ll have a break now.
I just found out that this piece is a tribute to gordeeva's celebration of a life for her late husband Serguei in 1996 since both couples had the same choreographer Marina Zueva, and it makes this program even more beautiful and meaningful than it already is on its own
Her solo tribute dance came after she skated to this piece with her husband before he died. And they is at least one other example Of skating to this piece I can find
@@M_SCgordeva mentioned that this was about her and grinkov it’s was their program they couldn’t skate because of his death. Even the last pose is from 90s on of his last pictures
@@scottw6704 Ice dance because Virtue/Moir closely matched G/G in that they’ve been together for a long time, had the same choreographer, and have that special “it” factor, have chemistry and had the skills (technically and artistically) to take on this challenge - and most importantly, had to have three ability to portray unity and special connection - that was really important for Marina. I’m sure Marina would have done a pairs team had there been a team worthy of it. As it so happens, ice dance was a good choice since it tends to be more expressive.
Wow!! Never saw like that but it could be quite true! Everytime I watched them dance looked like they were born to dance together! So lucky to have them dance in this era!
Hi, I just saw this comment. They really are soulmates in my opinion. There's no doubt. Even if they didn't end up together, they're souls will forever he with each other.
Неужели на них одеты коньки, я не вижу, как будто летают на небесах, какое скольжение, какая красота, какие красивые, завораживает, хочеться смотреть, смотреть, и ты забываешь все, и они говорят в танце жизнь прекрасна, , любите, живите в любви во всех ее прявлениях.....
Clearly Tessa is a superb skater. Scott doesn't always get the credit he deserves. Tessa said Scott is great at conveying feelings or the mood. He is. He was all fierce and passion and sharpness in the compulsory and OD because that's the character he was playing. He's all softness and graceful arms, hooded eyes gazing lovingly in the FD.
Indeed. My parents are dancers (not on ice tho), they always say to look at the male partner in dance. If he leads her like he should, takes care of her during dancing, and makes her shine or make her the star of the dance without putting himself too much in the spotlight you have a good one. And THAT is exactly what he does! Combine that with Tessa and you have Gold!
@@TheLookylookhe is such a secure partner. She can fly in absolute trust that he'll catch her. And he is a beautiful dancer in his own right. They are perfectly matched.

Nows day Howied set 4 clean aices cant trowed that bastard how we play skied ball ................... Who idea pura3 kan falen fucking trick ..... wanna knoed my feet at that days 5 year lagi lol
She, particularly, has that rare talent to let the music fill her body and let it go out of her fingers and toes and eyes and head and swirl around about them and he just lives it.
It’s 2019 and this remains as one of the most beautiful and complex programs, it’s full of intricate lifts and steps. There are skaters who even now can’t get close to that level of brilliance.
0:23 the look, the closeness, the tenderness. That's a beautiful connection. My tendency is to look at her but watch Scott from the beginning of the video until he has to turn away to take the opening stance... he looks at her virtually the entire time 0:28 When he guides her in and they touch foreheads, I melt. His tender stroke down her back and arm... his gaze
You know what is so great about these 2...they don't go for fancy gimmicky costumes...quite plain and simple ..Scott favors all black or black and white..Tessa's are pretty, but easy to move in...they concentrate on the DANCE, on the connection to each other and to their perfect symmetry and unison....consummate professionals..SO proud they are Canadian
@@pastanoodle6714 watch from minute 8:22 th-cam.com/video/NaMaM4orwIA/w-d-xo.html. Tessa developed a lesion similar to the compartmental syndrome, which produces a lot of pain. th-cam.com/video/S2W1zPk_Fb4/w-d-xo.html
@pasta noodle she skated with a serious injury for years called compartment syndrome. She hid it from the media because she thought that it could influence their score. She had a second surgery later that year. The first surgery she had a few years prior didn't give her much relief. She had it done on both legs on her shins and calfs at the same time and that is no joke! They literally gash open the limbs to make room for the muscles so they can expand properly.
I'm still mesmerized the way they performed. Two elegant performers who gracefully executed the difficult steps. For me they will remain as the best performers in the skating world. The champion among the champions. My only regret as a fan is that they did not end as a real couple but I have to accept it. Their performance will always be treasured and cherished by me. They will remain as the two legends in ice skating. Thank you for making your fans happy. From the Philippines.
It’s mind boggling how easy they make this look!! The detail is absolutely amazing. But what truly makes it special is their chemistry and how in sync they are with each other. I never get tired of watching them and sad that they have now retired.
I have shown this FD to two friends, who are excellent classical musicians and not really into Ice Dance, and they were so incredibly moved that they could communicate the beauty of this piece of music. They were in awe of their talent, athletic ability, and their artistic integrity, their commitment to every move and the way they are two people who dance as one, with the music. Gloriously beautiful.
i was eight years old when i first watched this in my grade 3 class in 2010... it was absolutely one of the most beautiful things i have ever seen, and then their final skate in 2018 blew it out of the water. i miss these guys so much, i'm so proud to have been able to watch them throughout their olympic careers ❤️❤️❤️
I almost cried... that was so beautiful... All the lifts and exits were so seamless. It has to be that Scott is a very strong man. How much can she possible weigh. This is so amazing. They are so beautiful so look at.
Wesley Nicholls and note: she is a healthy well toned woman, no anorexia there, amen to that. Yes, he is strong, but she is also keeping herself tight, so it is easier for him to lift.

This reminds me of some Grace Kelly-like, old Hollywood type of film...it's just so dreamy and romantic and beautiful, like dancing under twilight. I'm so happy for them that they won.
I still remember where I was and how I felt when I saw this performance for the first time. I remember thinking, "I've never seen anything so beautiful in my life!" I was completely awestruck. They are divine. This is an exemplary program on every level. There is so much to it! Out of this world.
I NEEDED to watch them again to capture the beauty and grace that I find lacking in this year's Ice Dancing Olympics. My husband tapped me on the shoulder and reminded me to breath because I become so engrossed in their performances.
The calmness and connect in their eyes just talking to each other before beginning like that alone made my heart skip a beat and honestly was when I realized they were gonna smash the program and get the gold
Whenever I want to remind myself what perfect ice dancers look like, I come and watch this video. There’s no one like them now. They have the technique, the artistry and the EMOTION. They were born to dance on the ice and we are so lucky to have had them for 3 Olympic cycles.
After watching Figure Skating in Beijing Olympics 2022, I came back to watch this video of Tessa and Scott. This is still the best pair figure skating performance to beat; the emotion, synchronization, difficulty, plus the two are good looking :) The performance is magical from beginning to end.
The epitome of grace, elegance, trust in your partner, musicality, athleticism. And who choreographs their wonderful dances? Bravo to them and all their team.
she is the most beautiful girl I have er seen in my entire life, and he is the boy that every girl wants, look how he look at her, I love him so much.. and I love that couple and EVERYTHING
I've watched so many ice dancing couples over the last 50 years, many of whom have been exceptional, but this routine is in a league of its own. It just took my breath away.
That choreography was breathtakingly beautiful. I got the same feeling I had when I first saw Torville and Dean skate Bolero. They were so in synch. If they are not in love they deserve an Oscar.
nearly as gorgeous as the program it was based on… they and meryl+charlie are my favorite ice dancers of the modern era… the fluidity, the connection, the speed, the passion, the synchronization… they are stunning together like poetry in motion… a gorgeous tribute to the stunning g&g
I love Moulin Rouge and all of their amazing work throughout the years but for me this piece gets me every time! It brings me to tears, it’s so beautiful!
I miss them so much, we were really blessed to witness the golden era. When ice dancing was about edges, levels, technicality matched with grace and interpretation.
Que dupla linda! Sério, Tessa e Scott estão fazendo falta nessas olimpíadas. Tanta delicadeza, sincronia, leveza e amor reverberam em todas as apresentações dessa dupla. Uma pena terem se aposentado. Mas ficamos todos felizes por saber que eles se dedicaram por 22 anos juntos a patinação no gelo, e quando bate saudades dessa beleza em dança, podemos vir aqui e assistir várias vezes.
I'm from Italy, and i'm following figure skating since 1992, but that early morning ( here in Italy was morning when they skated) of two years ago it was the first time i had teard in my eyes at the end of a program. I still get goosebumps and chills down my spine every time i watch it!!!! They really captured my heart that day, and this incredible free dance and that magical night will be in my heart forever!!
Beautiful choreography by the same lady who did Gordeeva and Grinkov's numbers. No doubt it was also a tribute to them because it the same song that Gordeeva danced to her husband died. Also, many of the poses in this dance were reminiscent of some of G&G' s performances.
So in sync with each other that their arm movements match even when they aren't looking at each other during their opening stance. Scott on bended knee in front of Tessa before kissing her hand - I died!
this is my favourite thing i’ve ever watched. watching this just feels so heartwarming. it all seems so intimate. this is my favourite performance ever!! everything about it is beautiful. words cannot describe it. just magnificent.
Не важно какая страна, но когда прекрасная музыка, чувственное исполнение и проникновенное катание двух талантливых лудей объединились - получился шедевр. Браво, хоть я из России. Но восхищёна.
When I watch them skate I can feel the emotions of their dancing in my cells. They are breathtaking to watch, they become one with the music. This is more than just skating, it nearly feels like a beautiful spiritual experience.
This is such an exquisite choreography, I find myself watching it from time to time, and I'm always extremely touched by it. Few seconds in and I already have goosebumps and tears in my eyes. For me, it's their best program, such raw beauty, purity, innocence... obviously they've come a great way to improve their skills later on, but this is just IT. I'd love to see them dancing this exact choreography once again 🌻
For me, this is the best. I kept on watching it again and again.I am still mesmerized how they glided and swayed forming identical shapes. I love how Scot lifted her with so much care and affection as if she's a fragile thing to be broken when she fall. How their face radiate love as they perform. I 'll never get tired of watching it again.
I wonder what they were saying to each other at the beginning? What kind of conversation would they be having in front of thousands of people like that? Fascinating.
this routine gives me a lot of striking proposal/wedding imagery. the white dress and collared shirt, the kneeling at the beginning, and the waltzy tempo like a first dance song. so, so beautiful!
It is worth noting the loving air with which Scott looks and touches Tessa's body before beginning their display, a display that was a continuous dance of enchantment , and of moments of relationship between Scott and Tessa characterised by great elegance and intimate connection between them. They were simply superb.
Virtue & Moir are for me the THE BEST ICE DANCE COUPLE I've ever seen and I'm from Poland not from Canada! I remember watching Torvill & Dean later Grishuk & Platov. But now when I see T&S and try to compare them to those 2 couples or Davis&White I see a big difference between those 4 couples. T&D skated like they were a brother and a sister, G&P like a boyfriend and a girlfriend,D&W skate like best friends but T&S SKATE LIKE LOVERS THAT FOR ME MAKES THEM SO SPECIAL! Sorry for my english:)
2020 in the US has been rough to say the least. This program by Virtue and Moir has given me the beauty, romance, and all that is good and positive that have been missing these last several months. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.
Every time I watch this video is an incredible emotion... It's like watching the same person on the ice, creating poetry. And one of the most moving part is when he says at the end "thank you so much", like he was receiving instead of giving. There were absolutely beautiful.
As a casual fan of ice dancing, I used to only focusing the upper part of their body. It's so mesmerizing. Lately my focus kinda shifted towards the real part of the skating, their feet, and holy shit I just realized those footwork are so complex! Even the first 10 seconds make me so nervous. The slightest misplacement can cause disaster to both of them.
If a person truly focus on the feet, as well as the ice skaters being in unison (at the same time)... it truly is remarkable. Please allow me to mention, Torvill and Dean! Simply pick the Olympics with their names! Give them a watch (more than one, but a couple of different dances! Talk about shocking!!!
If I get down, I can watch this and be lifted into a happier world. In the first viewing my eyes will focus on Tessa; when I repeat it, my eyes will focus on Scott. Truly a pair made in heaven. Speaking of heaven, I hope there's ice skating there.
On ice skating rink so many performers came, did good, so many would come in future, but Tessa and Moir, the duo would certainly remain on ice skating rink, may be not physically, but in the air and in the hearts of millions, forever........never to end, never to former chapter, even after their absence from the world. Geniuses are always scanty by nature.
Currently watching this because today was amazing and tomorrow will be as well. Happy Olympics, Tessa and Scott. Canada is with you every step of the way!!
I have watched this video a couple of times and everytime i watched it i am teary eyed because of so much emotions that is resonating... I got chill and goosebumps
This performance makes me feel like they’re two lovers, one; a princess hidden in a castle, the other, a handsome man that finds her dancing alone, joining her as they dance through a magical garden only they know of.
I was about grade 6 when i watched this on our cable here in the Philippines. Now that ive found it here again in youtube after so many years. My God! SO MAGICAL AND SUPERB! THEY are like two lover spirits dancing on ice and we were just invited to watch their love dance.
Como alguém pode dar deslike a uma apresentação sublime, perfeita e espetacular como essa. Só pode ser inveja. Eu nunca vi algo tão lindo em minha vida! Dois anjos flutuando no gelo!

The epitome of grace, elegance, trust in your partner, musicality, athleticism. And who choreographs their wonderful dances? Bravo to them and all their team.
she is the most beautiful girl I have er seen in my entire life, and he is the boy that every girl wants, look how he look at her, I love him so much.. and I love that couple and EVERYTHING
I've watched so many ice dancing couples over the last 50 years, many of whom have been exceptional, but this routine is in a league of its own. It just took my breath away.
That choreography was breathtakingly beautiful. I got the same feeling I had when I first saw Torville and Dean skate Bolero. They were so in synch. If they are not in love they deserve an Oscar.
nearly as gorgeous as the program it was based on… they and meryl+charlie are my favorite ice dancers of the modern era… the fluidity, the connection, the speed, the passion, the synchronization… they are stunning together like poetry in motion… a gorgeous tribute to the stunning g&g
I love Moulin Rouge and all of their amazing work throughout the years but for me this piece gets me every time! It brings me to tears, it’s so beautiful!
Their smile at the end of the routine is everything
I miss them so much, we were really blessed to witness the golden era. When ice dancing was about edges, levels, technicality matched with grace and interpretation.
It will never be the same without them competing...
Que dupla linda! Sério, Tessa e Scott estão fazendo falta nessas olimpíadas. Tanta delicadeza, sincronia, leveza e amor reverberam em todas as apresentações dessa dupla. Uma pena terem se aposentado. Mas ficamos todos felizes por saber que eles se dedicaram por 22 anos juntos a patinação no gelo, e quando bate saudades dessa beleza em dança, podemos vir aqui e assistir várias vezes.
hey sorry to break it to you but tessa virtue is dating a professional hockey player for the toronto maple leafs named morgan rielly!!
I'm from Italy, and i'm following figure skating since 1992, but that early morning ( here in Italy was morning when they skated) of two years ago it was the first time i had teard in my eyes at the end of a program. I still get goosebumps and chills down my spine every time i watch it!!!!
They really captured my heart that day, and this incredible free dance and that magical night will be in my heart forever!!
So
how the hell was it morning when they skated if you were in italy….. canada is hours back in timezones
@@itsflowerside this was at night in Vancouver, in Italy it was the morning of the next day
Beautiful choreography by the same lady who did Gordeeva and Grinkov's numbers. No doubt it was also a tribute to them because it the same song that Gordeeva danced to her husband died. Also, many of the poses in this dance were reminiscent of some of G&G' s performances.
Pauline Weber I thought the same thing,that it was a tribute. Pulled on the heart strings.
It was a tribute .. you are right. Zueva told about it
So in sync with each other that their arm movements match even when they aren't looking at each other during their opening stance. Scott on bended knee in front of Tessa before kissing her hand - I died!
There’s still beauty in this world
it's as if he comes to her after a long separation, she greets him with gratitude and love and they go skating together in a dream...so beautiful
this is my favourite thing i’ve ever watched. watching this just feels so heartwarming. it all seems so intimate. this is my favourite performance ever!! everything about it is beautiful. words cannot describe it. just magnificent.
Even after 2014 and 2018, this is still my favourite ice dance performance ever.
Не важно какая страна, но когда прекрасная музыка, чувственное исполнение и проникновенное катание двух талантливых лудей объединились - получился шедевр. Браво, хоть я из России. Но восхищёна.
These two are surreal. Out of this world. They make me watch their performances again and again, years after the performance.
4:22-4:34 is the most beautiful 12 seconds of skating I’ve ever seen.
I see him taking control and passionately allowing her to fly...or something. It's difficult to put into words!
When I watch them skate I can feel the emotions of their dancing in my cells. They are breathtaking to watch, they become one with the music. This is more than just skating, it nearly feels like a beautiful spiritual experience.
This is such an exquisite choreography, I find myself watching it from time to time, and I'm always extremely touched by it. Few seconds in and I already have goosebumps and tears in my eyes. For me, it's their best program, such raw beauty, purity, innocence... obviously they've come a great way to improve their skills later on, but this is just IT. I'd love to see them dancing this exact choreography once again 🌻
For me, this is the best. I kept on watching it again and again.I am still mesmerized how they glided and swayed forming identical shapes. I love how Scot lifted her with so much care and affection as if she's a fragile thing to be broken when she fall. How their face radiate love as they perform. I 'll never get tired of watching it again.
I wonder what they were saying to each other at the beginning? What kind of conversation would they be having in front of thousands of people like that? Fascinating.
Tessa and Scott skated so flawlessly, love watching them and could watch both all day and all night.
This feels like they allowed us to be part of a very personal and intimate journey the way only these two can ❤
this routine gives me a lot of striking proposal/wedding imagery. the white dress and collared shirt, the kneeling at the beginning, and the waltzy tempo like a first dance song. so, so beautiful!
So beautiful~~~
Best performance ever!
I swear they are like fairytale, so graceful, magical, beautiful, soft, tender
It is worth noting the loving air with which Scott looks and touches Tessa's body before beginning their display, a display that was a continuous dance of enchantment , and of moments of relationship between Scott and Tessa characterised by great elegance and intimate connection between them. They were simply superb.
Virtue & Moir are for me the THE BEST ICE DANCE COUPLE I've ever seen and I'm from Poland not from Canada! I remember watching Torvill & Dean later Grishuk & Platov. But now when I see T&S and try to compare them to those 2 couples or Davis&White I see a big difference between those 4 couples. T&D skated like they were a brother and a sister, G&P like a boyfriend and a girlfriend,D&W skate like best friends but T&S SKATE LIKE LOVERS THAT FOR ME MAKES THEM SO SPECIAL! Sorry for my english:)
2020 in the US has been rough to say the least. This program by Virtue and Moir has given me the beauty, romance, and all that is good and positive that have been missing these last several months. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.
it's extremely beautiful, it's unmatched it's unforgettable...
iconic
Every time I watch this video is an incredible emotion... It's like watching the same person on the ice, creating poetry. And one of the most moving part is when he says at the end "thank you so much", like he was receiving instead of giving. There were absolutely beautiful.
It's 2019 and I still got goosebumps watching this performance.
This kind of chemistry can't be real. I'm floored by these two!
As a casual fan of ice dancing, I used to only focusing the upper part of their body. It's so mesmerizing. Lately my focus kinda shifted towards the real part of the skating, their feet, and holy shit I just realized those footwork are so complex! Even the first 10 seconds make me so nervous. The slightest misplacement can cause disaster to both of them.

If a person truly focus on the feet, as well as the ice skaters being in unison (at the same time)... it truly is remarkable. Please allow me to mention, Torvill and Dean! Simply pick the Olympics with their names! Give them a watch (more than one, but a couple of different dances! Talk about shocking!!!
Q
a solo performance amazes me on its own but to be this coordinated with another person is just on another level impressive
Never get tired of watching ice skating by Tessa n Scott wow
🇮🇳🙏🙏❤
3:38 my jaw actually dropped at that
Metoo
Same here...
If I get down, I can watch this and be lifted into a happier world. In the first viewing my eyes will focus on Tessa; when I repeat it, my eyes will focus on Scott. Truly a pair made in heaven. Speaking of heaven, I hope there's ice skating there.
I'm not crying, you're crying.
That was simply beautiful. Royalty.
Best Ice Dancers Performance Ever! Ballet on Ice!
"Sheer beauty... Pride and joy, for what they created and shared."
The way that they look at each other at the beginning is just dreamy
It is such a delight to watch these two perform! ❤
Wow!! They are wonderful! They look like a prince and a princess who, in love, dance on the clouds sorrounded by an aura of magic and sweetness.❤️
They are like one soul in two different bodies.. Tessa is so elegant and Scott is so kind and soft...the great combination.
Missing them. 2022 still watching!!!
On ice skating rink so many performers came, did good, so many would come in future, but Tessa and Moir, the duo would certainly remain on ice skating rink, may be not physically, but in the air and in the hearts of millions, forever........never to end, never to former chapter, even after their absence from the world. Geniuses are always scanty by nature.
The greatest free dance ever in my opinion. No one has surpassed this.
Currently watching this because today was amazing and tomorrow will be as well. Happy Olympics, Tessa and Scott. Canada is with you every step of the way!!
Megan Conley nun
An incredible work of art on ice. A dream couple on the ice. Thank you Tessa and Scott for all your beautiful breathtaking programs.
Literally the heat of ther skating ⛸️ is melting the 🧊. ✨️✨️💛
I have watched this video a couple of times and everytime i watched it i am teary eyed because of so much emotions that is resonating... I got chill and goosebumps
If someone looks into my likes like this, i will forget who i am or where i am. Love her looks, it melted my heart.
This performance makes me feel like they’re two lovers, one; a princess hidden in a castle, the other, a handsome man that finds her dancing alone, joining her as they dance through a magical garden only they know of.
Muy bello y romántico una pareja de patinadores espectaculares ❤❤
I was about grade 6 when i watched this on our cable here in the Philippines. Now that ive found it here again in youtube after so many years. My God! SO MAGICAL AND SUPERB! THEY are like two lover spirits dancing on ice and we were just invited to watch their love dance.
This is what winners skate like! They skate and interact with such grace and passion like they’re in love. ❤
Это выступление хочется смотреть снова и снова💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
They look like royalty. Scott is so dreamy here and tessa is just beautiful. 🤍🤍
Como alguém pode dar deslike a uma apresentação sublime, perfeita e espetacular como essa. Só pode ser inveja. Eu nunca vi algo tão lindo em minha vida! Dois anjos flutuando no gelo!
Je regarde chaque semaine,un baume pour le cœur.
I have to admit I still watch this almost every day.
