BEST FREESTYLE E-V-E-R!!! Not Derek & Brookes that doesn't even register on the scale. This is the freestyle standard to which all other freestyles should be held to.
I said it before and now I say it again...when you can't tell who is the pro and who is the star--- That's Perfection. That was Definitive...Definative...Damn Good!!
I still like this but I must admit Donald Driver's freestyle is much more challenging and energetic. We'll have to see how well he does in the All Stars competition..
Now why the FUCK didn't Cheryl give Gilles a freestyle like this? >:( If she did, its a 100% guaranteed trophy for Gilles, but instead she comes up with a clunker for him and he and Cheryl lose to Shawn. =( Gilles was the best dancer overall during the season and he and Cheryl were a great couple, but for whatever reason she goes and screws it up in the freestyle and mails it in and it cost her and Gilles the title and trophy. =(
@perpetual61 well it did win the #1 in the people's choice for Top 10 Best All-Time Dances from Dancing With the Stars. I voted for this dance and I totally agree with the decision.
I really don't like him. First the sophomoric covering of his ass after the Brokeback mountain joke. Then he completely dominated the interview with stupid comments like, "It's very easy for us all to tie with the same amount of points." Duh. Finally, he confirmed his big ego by saying that viewers should "vote for me" as if he just danced by himself. Didn't you mean, "Vote for us?"
i remember watching this ENTIRE season and absolutely LOVING cheryl and drew and THIS freestyle is going to stay in my memory FOREVER AND i will ALWAYS remember this!! :)
@streetwhereulive I think it has to do with the show's producers tinkering too much with the format. This show was not broken yet they felt the need to "fix it" by adding guest comedians doing commentary or the Macy's dance troupe ( which was unnecessary since the show's pros were much better). Then the producers felt they had to get politically correct by adding Heather Mills, Marlee Matlin and why oh why, Bristol Palin. And they continue today with a transgender celeb in Chaz Bono.
Like a few seasons, Shawn and Gilles had the same exact scores. Really, it all depends on the votes. That's how Jerry got 2nd place over Stacey, even though he had the lowest scores. That's also how Warren of S7 got second place over Lance. They're both football stars and football stars get more votes. Mario (Lopez) of S3 lost to Emmit, whose scores were lower. Shawn and Gilles had the same exact scores, so did Mya and Donny of S9. Donny won due to more votes, Shawn won the same way.
in response to OHNOYOUDIDN'T : he wasn't a pop dancer he was/is a pop singer! the kind of dancing 98 degress did was not even close to the kind they did on the show....yes he had rhythm but thats all he came with to the show; they deserved to win more then any other couple DREW AND CHERYL ROCK!!!! :)
I'm probably in the minority here but while I think this was the best at that time it's not my favorite at the moment and I never thought it was the best of all the seasons. There have been many great freestyles since Drew and Cheryl and Mark and Shawn was one, even though I too agree that Giles should have one.
If Nick were to do DWTS, I think he should have someone other than Cheryl. Don't get me wrong, Cheryl is a good teacher, but even a good teacher compares two students who are brothers. I would like to see Nick with Edyta.
she has got to be one of the raunchiest choreographers/dancers and it isn't really hot. at all. if anything it's pretty disgusting how close she could get with all of her dancing partners o_O gives me shivers... ew...
@jjj1951 AMEN to your comment I hardly watch the show now, anymore, but these two were and still are my favorite couple there has been no free style dance that matches it i don't care what anybody says.
My 2 fav woman dancers are Cheryl and Lacey. LOL; one thing about Cheryl, she sure can move those hips! Like when she danced the Samba with Giles, ( who was another great partner ) by the way.
Nobody could ever touch this freestyle. I know my other fav DWTS champs Emmitt Smith, Helio Castroneves, Donny Osmond, and Hines Ward were all very good, but this IMO was still the best.
Why all the badmouthing? There's not one iota of proof they fooled around. And just because people stay quiet doesn't mean they are guilty. I give them thumbs up for ignoring the b.s.
It was fresh, new, something not done until they did it - the music was great, the outfits were great, it was just great. As Len said, it was fun, intertaining..YEP
Who thinks that Nick Lachey should be on the next season of Dancing with the Stars, and their should be a sibling show down to see who the better dancer is?
@foreverpeace12 kyle was way better than dre and so was appolo but lacey and julianne are better dancers than cheryl well not julianne by much but still.
I gotta say this is basically my 2nd most favorite dance of all time on DWTS right behind Apollo/Julianne's Push It Cha cha cha. And DAMN Cheyrl looks so fantastic in this video! :O
They are great!!!
I could watch this over and over. EXCELLENT
This will always be the best freestyle in the history of Dancing With the Stars. Sorry but its the truth, I love these two!!
I agree
BRAVO!!!
Holy crapp i
Best performance ever in any season. ;)
it was thier BEST dance ever !!! HOTTTTTT baby
Dang, LOVE IT!!! Ride a Cowboy!!!! :) :) !!!
This used to be my favorite freestyle of all time. Now it is Kellie Pickler and Derek Hough.
TheLambertLover yes
BEST FREESTYLE E-V-E-R!!!
Not Derek & Brookes that doesn't even register on the scale. This is the freestyle standard to which all other freestyles should be held to.
It's called freestyle. Being on beat is not what matters all the time--oftentimes it is about the flow and the movement.
Ride him Cheryl, Ride!
I knew someone would make a Brokeback Mountain joke, haha.
@aliena1 same! =)
GOD Cheryl Burke's hot!
'cause its a very sexy dance lol i'd be jealous if i was her
I said it before and now I say it again...when you can't tell who is the pro and who is the star--- That's Perfection. That was Definitive...Definative...Damn Good!!
Lol drew doesn’t look like a pro at all, you can see how stiff he is in comparison to Cheryl when they’re doing the same movements in unison.
I still like this but I must admit Donald Driver's freestyle is much more challenging and energetic. We'll have to see how well he does in the All Stars competition..
This was probably the most memorable routine of the entire show. I've never seen anyone top it.
outstanding performance drew lachey and cherly burk you guys are awesome
Cheryl and Drew took chances with each routine! And their fun, rollcking freestyle was the culmination! They won fair and square!
Cheryl was sooooo much hotter back then. OMG Shes insanely hot here
I remember when they danced this dance - Wowzee I was thinking!!! GREAT and sitll GREAT :) Loved it :)
THis is fantastic--Drew was amazing with Cheryl. THis is my favorite after Emmitt Smith's free style. Joey Fatone also had a great freestyle!!
Now why the FUCK didn't Cheryl give Gilles a freestyle like this? >:(
If she did, its a 100% guaranteed trophy for Gilles, but instead she comes up with a clunker for him and he and Cheryl lose to Shawn. =(
Gilles was the best dancer overall during the season and he and Cheryl were a great couple, but for whatever reason she goes and screws it up in the freestyle and mails it in and it cost her and Gilles the title and trophy. =(
I loved watching this when it first happened...and still do today :) They sooo deserved the trophy...I'm glad they won!
You know, when you saw their outfits and the song started - you just KNEW it was gonna be an awesome routine! YUMMO!
@perpetual61 well it did win the #1 in the people's choice for Top 10 Best All-Time Dances from Dancing With the Stars.
I voted for this dance and I totally agree with the decision.
awesome! lol i love it but i wouldnt like to be Drews wife at this moment xD
Cheryl is the best choreographer I've seen on this show.
I really don't like him. First the sophomoric covering of his ass after the Brokeback mountain joke. Then he completely dominated the interview with stupid comments like, "It's very easy for us all to tie with the same amount of points." Duh. Finally, he confirmed his big ego by saying that viewers should "vote for me" as if he just danced by himself. Didn't you mean, "Vote for us?"
Haha, they had such great chemistry, before I knew Drew was married, I thought Drew and Cheryl were a couple :P
i remember watching this ENTIRE season and absolutely LOVING cheryl and drew and THIS freestyle is going to stay in my memory FOREVER AND i will ALWAYS remember this!! :)
Thanks for this! I love this dance. Drew is still my favorite contestant from all the seasons. And this dance is the still the best the show ever had.

THIS IS DEFINIETLY THE BEST FREESTYLE IN DANCING WITH THE STARS FREAKING HISTORY!!!!!
STUPID LEN JUST FORGOT CUZ ya know he's old
Cheryl won two years in a row... awesome. But this freestyle was SO much better than Emmitt's.
If Nick were to do DWTS, I think he should have someone other than Cheryl. Don't get me wrong, Cheryl is a good teacher, but even a good teacher compares two students who are brothers. I would like to see Nick with Edyta.
she has got to be one of the raunchiest choreographers/dancers and it isn't really hot. at all. if anything it's pretty disgusting how close she could get with all of her dancing partners o_O gives me shivers... ew...
this is my favorite dance of all time on Dancing w/ the stars...im so glad they won!

Hi, Keshira, I wasn't speaking of the dance - I was speaking about the folks who were using foul language in regards to Cheryl - that is not necessary
well they are probably avoiding each other because they don't want to give people the wrong idea. I don't think he would do that to his wife and kid.
god, i miss those good days when she had good partners... =(
I still believe in her, just not Wayne...
he was walking his dances, like a predicted.

put this on 4 video comments within 15 min if u do sum 1 u luv with suprise if u dont they hate u
Did you notice that during the interview he didn't let her get a word in edge-wise?
She seemed kind of contemptuous of him in general..never hugged him back. She's the pro, he's the amature...I guess she doesn't need any praise.
That dance was amazingg! I loved Drew && Cheryl they deserved to win that season!
This is the only time I liked dancing with the stars! awesome song great dance! I like that Cheryl imo I think shes the best dancer...
i think i'd love to see cheryl and julianne go up against each other in the finals. then i'd really have absolutely NO CLUE who would win.
This is my favorite dance of season 2.
I'm so glad that Cheryl and Drew won!
I think Gilles lost because of the freestyle. It didn't generate as much excitement or showcase as much talent as this one!
so funny! I just watched this season's finale and I came to watch this freestyle and Apollo's to justify my letdown!
Why the poor comments about Cheryl? She's a good dancer and this dance was great by them both! Good going!!
to be honest, i've seen better freestyle in the show. The show is getting better and better every season.
Hard to believe it's been 3 years! One of the best dances on DTWS!
This dance should have been like 2 or 3 on DWTS top 10 in Seasons 1-5, but this is one of my fav dances
that wasn't very good. chris bath's (runner up in the australian version) freestyle was much better!!!!
this was my favorite season him and stacy keibler were my fave
Loved it , loved it, loved it! Amazing how the band sounded like the original band - awesome band - they always are, too!!!
I tuned in and was glad to see Helio win...i was just disappointed in the freestyles this year....
I still love this one the best. No one has come close yet. Drew and Cheryl are still my favorite couple.
For me this is one of the coolest freestyle ever.
@sidewayslove Well this freestyle was excellent, but it wasn't the only top notch freestyle.
I like Drew's previous dances, but I seriously don't get the appeal of this Freestyle dance.
LOL! I just realised the song went like Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy!LOL Great performance!
OMG I LOVE DREW! Thanks carebearcutie1214 for this!!!!!!!!!1
i know.
WHERE does it say that if you stay quiet it's the same as admitting guilt???!!?
It was this dance and the pasadoble that made drew win, god he looks sexy in this dance.
Like it or not, this is the freestyle against which all other freestyles are compared.
i dislike the people who sing the song. why can't they use the original recordings?
there is no doubt they were the champions of this season
i think apollo and julianne's freestyle was just as good as drew and cheryl's.
He deserved to win ^____~ And, I mean, who doesn't LOVE that song ^________^
Im sorry but mario was so much better, drew looked like it was forced fun.
I gotta say this is basically my 2nd most favorite dance of all time on DWTS right behind Apollo/Julianne's Push It Cha cha cha.
And DAMN Cheyrl looks so fantastic in this video! :O
of the Lachey brothers? Drew is the catch. He can dance with me anytime!
Come one let’s give her another mirror ball already
God, Drew is so cute, isn't he? I'd forgotten! Little men rule!
i love this dance but i kinda like kyla massey's a lil better
You cannot beat this freestyle! I'd like to see anyone try...
I frequently review this dance to see some real champions!!!
*grins* Brokeback Mountain the musical!!
(To quote Bruno)
this was the best dance they ever had on this show
Still one of my favorites.
Cheryl looks fabulous...and Drew's not too shabby either
Cheryl is gorgeous.........and I'm a straight female!!!!
One of her best dance ever
@PoohBear4554 My all time favortie dance on the show.
What is with all of this X-rated stuff? Good grief :(
cheryl burke is incredible period
