Congrats to Nathan. His hard work has certainly paid off but seriously what was Vera Wang thinking with this attire. It looks $5 + free shipping.
Lmao 🤣🤣 it was from Vera Wang? I expect so much more from her. Anyways, huge congratulations to Nathan, he finally has his Olympic moment after 2018
It looked amazing with the planet design which suited the music perfectly. I liked the fact it was masculine and not prissy like so many other men’s costumes!
@@bellabana and his last face expression is what most amazing thing✨️
I agree
@@bellabana wat do u mean by prissy?
1:50 the timing of the jump and music is just uncannily beautiful. I know many have said it, but I am so compelled to repeat it. What a performance!
@뀰꿀better than valieva??
@뀰꿀 this is even better
It is stunningly gorgeous. I'm in tears every single time I watch it; just extraordinary!
It's truly remarkable. I love that moment too. Staggering.
Yeah I loved that part so in sync with the music. I think that’s the best part of the whole routine. I also love the part from 3:22-3:27 what a transition
My only regret is that he wasn't able to perform this in front of a stadium full of people! This program is just so joyful and uplifting, it brings a goofy smile to my face every time I watch it
I thought that too! Can you imagine the crowd if they would have been there?
Was fortunate to be able to be at the 2022 nationals in Nashville. Everyone who was there were going nuts with the step sequence at the end. Just an incredible performance overall. Still get so much joy watching it a year later.
He eventually did! Saw it (or a similar program??) live and it was amazing abhsjhsdh
he did at stars on ice it was crazy to watch
It's been awhile since I've seen this, and I forgot just how light and joyful it really was. It's unfortunate that he singled the 3F. But it didn't take away from the overall performance.
You can pinpoint the moments he knows he’s got the gold and let’s himself go! So joyous !
There is a point in the step sequence where he faces the camera again with a smile and I just flail.
c'mon, he knew that at the worst after he saw a result of Yuzu's SP :)
(all heil to the champion, no irony here!!)
He was so completely in sync with the music during this entire routine. He had skated to this music before and was great, but this performance was truly outstanding.
Hard work pays off. 😎
I had the honor to see him skate and meet him yesterday. He was so kind and humble to me. Thanks Nathan!
What a lucky guy!
Wow where was it? New Haven?
@7girl Detroit tree lighting 2023
Darn, I missed it! I live in Detroit suburb but I didn't know he was coming for the tree lighting.
1:56 he landed exactly with the msuic. This definitely added some points. Congrats!
This is my favorite part of the program
it was awesome, It's been a long time We don't see an athlete make a perfect transition with a jump since Plushenko, Nathan deserved a lot this gold medal
@@jeffersonpereira6594 Plushenko? in which performance? Plushenko himself said he has no transitions between jumps, he focused on getting the quads done.
You missed the first jump then….
Nathan landed the jump with the music, it was the hardest quad Lutz ! Only Chen can do it !
My favourite is when he let himself go at 3:22 and just had fun and danced with the music, I love that he doesn't always choose ballads
I cried at Rocketman. He looked so free, like it was just him and the ice. Just goosebumps. ❤
Nathan definitely deserve the gold, he didnt deserve all the hate and rude comments in the social media and mainly focusing in his outfit. BUT WELP they probably didnt watch hisperformance cause you wouldnt even think of what his dress because it was enchanting, exciting and a sight to see!! DESERVE DESERVE
His outfit matched the music! None of the other skaters had music that matched their program OR outfit.
I think what people were having the issue with was that his costume was a Vera Wang, and it looks like you could’ve gotten the same thing on eBay or Amazon for much cheaper. The costume was great for his routine, people were just shocked that it was a designer outfit
He looked fabulous. In any case, the main thing was his outfit showed the clear lines of his graceful performance. Showing the movement, outline of the body as it moves from one movement to the next is very important in judging. Agree, his performance was brilliant. Seemed effortless, etherial. And the main thing was people were absolutely enchanted by him. He had charisma as well as the skills.
Nathan Chen! I've watched this so many times! One of the greatest preformances I've ever seen!!!❤
What a mind-blowing, breathtaking, unforgettable performance. Nathen takes ice skating to a whole new level. Mashing up his ballet foundation and hip hop element I can't imagine other people can make it looks so easy like he does. Big congratulate to Nathen!
I love watching when really talented people smile as they show off their craft. That's when you see the inner joy of what they do come out. Most gifted people dont show joy or happiness. They lack personality and are all technical and stoic. But Nathan just beams. So in the happiness of doing what he is doing.
At minute 3:10 He knew he had already won and he was just celebrating, such a joy
This performance just makes me SMILE!!!! It’s so beautiful and so well done and he’s stunning to watch
He was perfect with grace, style, and elegance.😎❤🇺🇲🏅
The most amazing part is watching him enjoying the entire performance.
We don't get to see all the effort that is behind every step, but enjoy every single movement. BRAVO...!!!
おめでとう！！ネイサン選手
間違いなく金メダルに値する素晴らしい演技でした
真の王者👏👏😆
Two years passed. Still glorious!
The step sequence near the end made my smile so big, I can't explain it but it just made me so happy.
Absolutely in tears today, four years for since I cried in his 2018 skates for completely opposite reasons. He’s grown so fast and flown so far. So proud of you Nathan… Can’t wait to see what else you can show us next season
What happened 4 years ago
@@iamtusharrawat15 he had a catastrophic SP, where he messed up all his jumping passes and was 17. after the short. Proceeded to win the FS but that was only enough to lift him up to 5th place overall.
@@Unfiltered494 he should have been 4th but two Chinese judges scored the Chinese skater (who got 4th) higher. The irregularities of their scoring caused the ISU to review their scoring and banned them from judging for 2 years.
@@savingpeace8452 it was in the newspapers and no, I’m not xenophobic.
But you have to admit that Hanyu's performance was something awesome.
Outstanding and inspirational. This is an example of an athlete who was completely embodied in the moment.
I can’t imagine what this must feel like. Like being on top of the world. Just breathtaking…. I watch this whenever I feel down.
Who can ever hear this song again and not think of Nathan's triumph or the fantastic journey he has taken us all on? A great anthem for a great champion.
Nathan is a sweetheart. Hs personally is so warm and genuine.
Chen looked spectacular. Love watching this over and over
Watching him, he just looks like he’s having fun. So many don’t look that way
Nathan’s power and grace were perfect
An icon of bravery, charisma and cosmic skills on ice. Invincible. Irreplaceable. 🤍
Невероятный золотой чемпион ❤👑 Это были прекрасные годы, когда ты соревновался ❤
I met him once at a competition hes actually so nice
The musicality is stunning
This literally made me smile. I had to rewatch the music transition again. I wish he was more expressive in the first half but he nailed the second half amazingly which made everything worth it.
He looked like he was having so much fun. So glad he won gold
thinking of everything he put in to get to this point 😭 but ive never seen this before, it's so cool. and the joy he had. unbelievably skilled, he's taking this to a whole other level. born to make history!
Nathan, he shines like a star in the sky. 🌟🇺🇸🏅
The music, the choreography, the showmanship -- breathtaking and so honest.
Oh my...
The hours of dedication it took for your exquisitely timed and graceful routine to appear so effortless is astounding...
Superb presence on the ice...
Thank you for my goosebumps...
🇿🇦
I can never get tired of watching this. Goooo Nathan!!!
Nathan amazing best of best beutiful momen skill speed power full tampil bebas lepas happy enjoy percaya diri jadi diri sendiri tetep keren menawan dan mempesona dengan kostum yang sederhsna sekalipun tetap th. Best love you
ISaw this when he won the gold medal. Loved it. I was going thru a hard time as my husband was very ill and died a few weeks later. I would keep watching thisI The music was new to me and it give me such joy to see this. So when I am down I turn this on and makes me feel so much better,Thank you Nathan and Elton John.
I'm very sorry for your loss. Your comment is most sweet and touching. Please look up for previous Nathan Chen's competitions since 2018 onward, hope they'll bring you some joy.
I watch this performance from the GOAT whenever I feel low in spirit. Brilliant and joyous performer. Thank you Nathan Chen for lifting spirits and proving all things are possible.
Me too!
Nathan is the Quad King. Yuzuru Hanyu is the GOAT
Other than his impressive technical skills, Nathan is also a true artist. Unlike some skaters who predictably skating to the same music genre, he would challenged himself by performing a variety of music/dance. His repertoires are so impressive. He is the equivalent of a superb actor who immerses himself into his roles without the burden of typecast. Freaking awesome
Hello 👋 Kathy
How are you doing today
Not just any genre or artist, he did it to classic rock songs that were performed by Elton and the lyrics were written by Bernie.
Absolutely beautiful, I could watch him all day long, you can tell he's skating with love, not just skating... He is putting his heart❤ into it. Bravo and congratulations 🎉 you deserve it
He was on that night! He relates to the music!
Simply sublime. A beautiful "out of this world" performance worthy of an Olympic gold. Nathan Chen is truly the world figure skating's ROCKETMAN!
Im inspired by him alot. I saw him studying in the stadium once during practises. As a person who work in two different streams he inspires me alot how to win both worlds
Give Nathan a piece of music and he will turn it into a master piece. He is just phenomenal 😍
Chen is a phenomenon, still unparalleled. It's hard to describe.
The only skater with full standing ovation!!! He is really a skating prodigy and is a breath of fresh air with his versatility in his choreography. Earning so many champion titles and breaking so many world records at such a young age is really an amazing accomplishment. It will not be possible to find another skater who is so confident and solid like him. Not related but he kinda resembles this Kpop idol, U-know from TVXQ.
How many world records has he broken?
@@isabellaahumadaramos7013 I don't have the specific number but looking at his Wikipedia page, he has broken the records at Grand Prix Final, Worlds Championship and the Olympics. It seems like whenever he sets a world record, he will beat it again himself in another game.
I’m sorry but the only skater with full standing ovation? Is this a joke to every other skater presently and in history?
@@noname-gb3il Did you even watch the whole competition?
@@sporeKAfan Yes but have you only watched the 2022 Olympics? How about every World, Europeans and every Grand Prix event in history? How about watching the actual component scores of every single skater if they were over or underscored? 5 quad jumps will always be spectacular but your overall message is just ridiculous for the whole fandom.
Every time, i come back here to watch this amazing performance. In all those years, you skated to so many different music styles, but each time your musicality and intepretation were perfect. Jumps are technically amazing, but making them timed perfectly with the music is another of your many talents. Im so sad to learn your hip injury is still there, can't imagine how much you must have endured, without complaining once about it. Another thing that makes me admiring you, this way of Always, alway being the best sportsman. Truly one of a kind.
Fantastic moves! His routine was a wonderful detail of his strength and professional attitude! Congratulations!!❤
I just love how relatable he is. Like with the dance at the end of his program like he had fun with it he had a big smile on his face and he let himself go and that’s why he won!!! The judges can smell fear guys!!! This is coming from a skater. He’s not stuck up like all the other skaters in his division. At the end of the program he was showing he was just a regular person too!!!
I don't normally find Nathan as enjoyable to watch as some of the others. Amazing athlete (so many quads!), but his performance usually feels a little flat. Doesn't give me the wonder or joy some others have. This free program seemed to start off that way, but from about half way through (around 2:15) he really seemed to start actually enjoying and getting into what he was doing. By the time it got to the end I was laughing I was having so much fun watching him! It was amazing to watch and I'm super happy for him to be able to add Olympic Gold to his other achievements. Congratulations Nathan!
Yes! Exactly!!
He's improved alot in terms of musicality and performance!
for me i think it's because i saw him start to smile lmao
Nathan’s been the best skater for years now, how anyone could think he’s not incredibly talented and exciting to watch is beyond me. The only reason would be because ‘their’ favourite skater is no longer the best hence the petty jealousy because ‘their’ favourite is he’s no longer no.1 anymore.
@@bellabana @hether he's exciting watch is really up to personal taste, is it not? Like how people prefer different kinds of food. It's okay for you to like Nathan better but please don't insult the people who aren't like you and say they're 'jealous' or anything, which isn't the truth for most
Yes!! That's what the lyrics said "the greatest of all the time". Truly is! You are the greatest Nathan!
I keep coming back and rewatching this
I remember watching this nonstop after he won the gold medal
same!!@@ashleystar4773
I remember watching him in the Olympics when I was 9 in 2018 and he didn’t do too well. He’s come a long way and I’m proud of him
Tears in my eyes, thank you Nathan for this wonderful program
I'm still coming back to this performance, it was just so brilliant
Never get tired of watching him. GOAT.
I'm proud of Nathan Chen. He has redeemed himself from that lost in 2018 and secured his first gold medal.
100% All in support for the Comeback Kid, well done! Bravo, so inspiring!
I just seen him skate last night in lehigh valley was doing backflips on the ice many times, insanely talented
Wooooow very amazing! Congratulations and thanks for sharing your experience, undoubtedly it must be such a wonderful experience, I watch his performances only here in TH-cam and are very thrilling! I can't imagine hiw breathtaking must be in person! 😍😍😍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😉👌🏻🥇🤴🏻🕺🏻⛸⛸🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Backflips on ice are nothing special and it was a norm many yrs back. Ppl don't do it in competition anymore bcz it's banned
@@sierrakim4247 all them know the rule.
Yeah: Nathan Chin is totally outstanding.
Nathan Chen is for me the best skater up till NOW.
He combines the highest level of artistic elements (jumps )with a great impression in dancing and interpreting.
Beautiful choreography, great choice of music, near-perfect execution. A well-deserved medal.
Nathan was a badass rocket 🚀 a true rockstar quad king 👑 congrats on that badass performance pure 100% 🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅
Congratulations for your well deserved win! I watched ten times and still got chills every time when I watched the performance. Please keep up your master piece of work, Nathan Chen.
he's awesome! the hip hop choreo hit me the hardest
his joy is so fantastic
I just can't get enough watching this program and it just makes me clap every time at the end. The music and syncing of the skating is unparalleled.
Love the song choice, artistry, technical skills, expressions, work ethic everything! Amazing performance :')
My first time watching Nathan skate and he gave me chills. He really poured it all out on the rink. So glad he took gold! It was a flawless performance.
Love Nathan, but it wasn't flawless, technically. Shaky landing on the salchow and triple toe in combo popped into a single. But 5 quads and incredible performance.
ネイサンおめでとう！❤️🔥
正直、最初は違う選手を応援していましたが、彼の演技が1番印象に残っていて、天才的でした。
まだまだ活躍を見たい！！
1:56 absolute quad King, a lunatic who schedules, and lands, a quad Lutz for the 2nd half of his program.
His timing in the choreography with these jumps is impeccable!!! He secures the WOW factor for sure!
He is so handsome!
He brought us the new era of figure skating. Just amazing, bravo Nathan👏 👏👏👏👏
I don't think people realize how crazy 2:10 is, if you look at his torso it's spinning continuously, but in order to keep himself skating forward, he has to quickly switch his foot between forward and backward facing
Nathan embodies perfection and hardwork. He brought a new experience of transitions so dynamically and beautiful put together
OMGosh I just watched his very first competition when he was like 3 or 4! He's come a long way I'd say! Congratulations
Это какой-то космос, вселенная, фантастика...
that angular sudden transference of weight in the footwork sequence works really brilliantly and beautifully to convey the music, and he skates it with such beauty, brilliance, joy, and ballon. amazing skater and amazing champion! Thanks for this great performance Mr. Chen and Congrats on your well-earned Olympic Gold Medal! Go Team USA!
To land the most difficult jump 4Lutz @1:54 in sync with music is incredible !
I remember as a kid every time we went to the skating rink, he was there with his mom doing triple lutz’s like it was nothing. He would practice like crazy even when the rink opened to the public.
you’re so lucky
He looks so happy during the performance. Congrats to Nathan : )
He should have won a gold medal just for his music choice !
What music is this please ?
Ну какой же он крутой фигурист! КРАСАВЧИК!❤
Yeah Nathan is amazing!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!
He fought, got better and better, I’m proud of him.
He deserves this.
Every time I watch him skate, he makes my day!
Hello 👋 chris
How are you doing today
I love Nathan's skating style. Am a bit put off by a lot kf the repetative and downright depressing song choices and stories too many skaters use that capture nothing of the times they are living in. I truly appreciate Nathan for going for a different style.
I know. I love Nathan's versatility and song choices. Too many skaters now choose songs by alternative artists that have a plodding tempo, angst-filled lyrics, and a dark tone. I know what you're talking about. So tired of those repetitive song choices from too many skaters.
Just saw him perform this tonight for Stars on Ice! Absolutely breathtaking to see in person.
SO well-deserved! I don't know why NBC took their Olympic videos of most of the skating down. Before the Olympics were even over, Nathan's SP video had over 4.5 million views, and his LP had over 6 million views!
Also the camera angle a bit different than this one
@@lina_xu Yes, I think the NBC angle is a bit better, particularly at the beginning.
4.5 and 6 million views and I don't have access ... Thank you for writing this. We, Nathan fans lived to see his Gold !
@@noran7809 Nathan's Chinese fan page (on weibo) still have the NBC video. If you want to watch the NBC version
I've honestly watched this at least 50 times. No exaggeration
Hello 👋 white
How are you doing today
I have watched this 100 times. No exaggeration. 😎😎
But I would strongly recommend you to watch the 2021 World Championship FS by Nathan. That FS is absolutely peak Nathan.
th-cam.com/video/lFdyvaq7hLI/w-d-xo.html
No one like Nathan, he skates with soul!
This program was perfect for the Olympics. Made him stand out from the other skaters. Also he is so skilled that he missed the triple portion of the quad triple but came back and did a triple and then a triple combination very well.
I just started reading his book, and to be honest I’m not a huge book reader but this is fantastic. So far I love it!
I just finished his book and came to rewatch this performance. I have an even deeper admiration and appreciation for him and this performance now.
I cry every time I watch this
I could watch this over and over again. Pure perfection, joy, and fun!
Нэйтан великий фигурист, невероятная сила, выносливость, потрясающая пластика и артистизм. Спасибо за твои невероятные программы, они потрясающие!❤❤
Мой любимчик ❤ ❤❤
