No matter how much time goes by, this performance can still bring me to tears. It wasn’t just the beautiful choreography or the beauty of the dancers themselves, but the emotion they both showed that makes it amazing.
It looked like they both broke down in tears at that end of hugging. But hugging in a way of if you dont you will die! This was the most soul warming dance!!
The way Derek and Kellie hugged each other (not once but twice) at the end spoke volumes about their partnership. This was a match made in heaven. DWTS should be proud for having this pair in its history.
@@judyroberson4976 Rubbish gymnastics my backside shows how little you know! This is modern freesystyle expressive dance telling a story in the most modern way of dance! Brilliant and emotive!! You need to open your eyes and your heart, try watching the brilliant Maddie Ziegler especially in the videos she did with Sia. Expressive dance at it's very best!
There has never been any performance like this one !! Derek & Kellie complimented each other and their chemistry was so deep it took over as they shook in each other's arms during their last embrace . It took my breath away.
Watching all the contributions of Kellie and Derek during Season 16 gave me a whole new perspective on Kellie. I thought she was FABULOUS from the beginning. The trust she had in Derek shows over and over again. And, Derek was able to display his genius with her. This is my favorite season because of these two.
I've watched this dance over hundred times and still never got enough. Great dance from Derek and kellie. I know Derek very well and he's One of my best dancers. Voice from Africa
Derek is an inspiration not just as a performer but as a Human role model, we should all be so inclined to be as loving, kind, Ambitious and genuinely considerate to others and their feelings, inpirations and dreams as he has been for so many people, he is truly a Super Star Human being and a Treasure among the Stars💫🎉
I remember watching and it’s one of those moments that I’ve never forgotten. I admire Derek’s choreography and Kelli’s dedication. He’s an amazing dancer.
Derek is an incredible artist. He and Kellie were a perfect match, this dance is my all-time favorite such strength and execution, outstanding choreography
That was absolutely stunning. So much emotion behind it. It is 2024 and I am seeing this for the first time. I could see and feel the emotion even before I knew the back story. This deserved to win.
It was the first time anyone had done a contemporary for the freestyle and it was so jaw droppingly impressive that after that everyone wanted to do a contemporary freestyle. Once again the trend maker. Derek was and is always the best.
Forget once-in-a-generation talent.... Hough is a once-in-a-lifetime talent. I NEVER get tired of watching his choreography. As much as I love SYTYCD, I don't understand how he doesn't win Emmys every year.
This performance will stand above all others. The emotion was awesome to watch as well as painful at the same time. Derek always gets the feelings to come from the dancers. Like Kellie and Bindi. It left me crying❤😢
WOW!!! This was the most Beautiful, Amazingly, Dance performance I have ever seen in my life. Some music makes me cry with chills, but I have never cried after a dance performance , what a Blessing. God Bless love’s 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️❤️👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
That was mesmerizing!!! I’m not a dancer but is Kellie not super close to be classified as a professional?! They both did phenomenal but she was breathtaking and flawless. 🏆 👏❤💃👏 ❤💃
A “ professional “ ,in any description, simply and only means a person who gets paid for what they do. It doesn’t have to do with the quality of their work.
Magnificent interpretation and physical awareness complimenting both dancers. Kudos if Derek braved his trust and talent of Pickler! Sensational. Could watch grace forever. BT
I can't believe how strong Derek is, and he makes it look so effortless. Crazy!
Watching in 2023, still unequalled. TY for the share❤
The last couple of years there are no dances even close to how beautiful that was.
Holy Smokes! Kelly looks like a professional dancer. Such great choreography from Derek.
No matter how much time goes by, this performance can still bring me to tears. It wasn’t just the beautiful choreography or the beauty of the dancers themselves, but the emotion they both showed that makes it amazing.
And there's the "Im crying" post for attention that gets made in every comment section. Gratz you got your upvotes.
@@echoechoecho7142 And there is the asshole who thinks he needs to be a judgmental jerk to try and prove some kind of point....Congrats !!
For my money, that was and is the most beautiful dance from DWTS, ever. So pure, and such perfect storytelling.
THE INCREDIBLE SYNCHRONICITY BETWEEN THE TWO
SPIRITUALLY AND PHYSICALLY EXPLOSIVE
BRAVISSIMO
It looked like they both broke down in tears at that end of hugging. But hugging in a way of if you dont you will die! This was the most soul warming dance!!
That was one of the most beautiful dances on DWTS ever!!!! Absolute perfection!!!!!!!!
You’re so right…perfection.
That’s back when DWTS was good. Love Derek he is so talented his choreography is amazing.
You should watch this season, it was good again. Even Derek thinks so.
One of my all time favorite dances! Prayers still going out to Kellie❤
My favorite dance ever on DWTS! Praying for Kellie!! 🙏🏼
Yeah, this was the dance that set the bar for Contemporary dances. This truly was breathtaking. Even now👏👏👏👏👏
The way Derek and Kellie hugged each other (not once but twice) at the end spoke volumes about their partnership. This was a match made in heaven. DWTS should be proud for having this pair in its history.
Yes this was beautiful but I didn’t see one dance step. This was gymnastics.
@@judyroberson4976 gymnastics or not, it was fine for a freestyle

Take no notice. You're entitled to your opinion. Once they start spouting Zeigler... (predictable) drop it, move on.
@@judyroberson4976 read, it's called a FREESTYLE
This dance was just so beautiful and deserved the win.
There has never been any performance like this one !! Derek & Kellie complimented each other and their chemistry was so deep it took over as they shook in each other's arms during their last embrace . It took my breath away.
A dance from 7 years ago, yet it is so beautiful till this time and forever.....
They were stunning, brilliant, magical and incredibly talented ❤

He's a phenomenal dancer, not just great. 🤣
I remember watching this live 9 years ago. Something magical took place. You could feel it through the TV!!
Same
One of the best dances ever here…knew he could but had no idea Kelli could do this!
Kelly was unbelievable. Just WOw!!
Why have I only found this masterpiece this year just why
it’s 2020.
I watched this the night they first danced it. I still come back to watch it.
Because zendaya’s been hiding it 😂
It always brings a tear to my eye watching this. One of the most beautiful dances to this day.
So stunning and graceful
This is such a beautiful performance. I watch it several times a year.
Wow! Kelly is a strong dancer and in amazing shape. The core strength she has to be able to preform that dance is amazing.
I agree! It is amazing!
One of the best performances I have ever seen on DWTS. I still get chills when watching. ❤
Love this!!!!!

Kellie's performance was as good as any of the pro's. That also tells you just how good Derek is as a teacher. Amazing performance.
I remember watching and it’s one of those moments that I’ve never forgotten. I admire Derek’s choreography and Kelli’s dedication. He’s an amazing dancer.
That is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen!
She was my favorite celebrity with a Derek Hough❤ still to this day favorite dance of all time

She's truly excellent
That was absolutely stunning. So much emotion behind it. It is 2024 and I am seeing this for the first time. I could see and feel the emotion even before I knew the back story. This deserved to win.
That was a stunning choreography and it is still a memorable one to keep in the vault as they say.🕺🏾💃🏽❤
Kellie is so talented and also such a down-to-earth, nice person. I don’t know why she hasn’t become a bigger star than she has. She’s awesome.
It was the first time anyone had done a contemporary for the freestyle and it was so jaw droppingly impressive that after that everyone wanted to do a contemporary freestyle. Once again the trend maker. Derek was and is always the best.

That was excellent! She kept up with him perfectly! Really impressive!
Yes indeed it raised the bar! It touched my heart then and it touches my heart tonight. Simply magnificent! ❤'ed it!
Derek & Kelly were my favorite couple of all the shows combined. Never a step off, always perfect! 2nd was Derek & Bindi, also perfect.
She’s a great dancer, catches on quickly ❤❤❤❤
Insane choreography and Kellie looks like a pro. Beautiful dance
UNBELIEVABLE - incredible !! the best of the best; I've always thought Derek Hough was the best male dancer and teacher, so I'm elated
AND the best choreographer. Which is very impressive - so few dancers are great at all three.
Thanks Veronica for saying it so beautifully..
One of the most beautiful dances I've ever seen...multiple times...I cry every time
This performance will stand above all others. The emotion was awesome to watch as well as painful at the same time. Derek always gets the feelings to come from the dancers. Like Kellie and Bindi. It left me crying❤😢
ABSOUTELY BREATHTAKING!!!!
They were unbelievable! Amazing performance!
I remember watching that dance when it was originally aired. Beautiful!!
Kelly is so talented in so many ways. She is quite funny and truly genuine. 💞
She is lovely! I've seen her in concert a few times and she is genuine and quick witted. And she can sing!
@@suzannequinson8439 I have some of her songs, saved. When she was on American Idol, I wanted her to win. 💞
hope she is doing okay with the passing of her husband...very sad
@@AMilo-qm4ed suicide, yes? Very tragic! 😔
I loved that dance. They were very professional and very good. I have watched it many times.

Wonderful. We love you Kelly.

Derek is superb, best choreographer ever

Every time I watch this it gives me the chills just like the first time. Such a beautiful dance.
This was incredible, Derek is always good but Kelli dances like a professional dancer.

That was mesmerizing!!! I’m not a dancer but is Kellie not super close to be classified as a professional?! They both did phenomenal but she was breathtaking and flawless. 🏆
👏❤💃👏 ❤💃
A “ professional “ ,in any description, simply and only means a person who gets paid for what they do. It doesn’t have to do with the quality of their work.
This looks like a So You Think You Can Dance routine, with two well-trained dancers instead of one & a star! GORGEOUS!!
I have always loved Derek, from the first time I saw him on that show. He just got better and better throughout the years.
Just wow both was breathtaking ! Could watch all day !
Derek has passion moves me beyond words! I loved our cups and Kelly Pickler’s dance they’re perfect together!!
I had no idea she was in such great shape. Damn.
Ive been sleeping on this show. This was down right entertaining and gorgeous. Killing it Kellie!
Beautiful! The gymnastics was great too. That inverted bird’s nest was spectacular!!😮❤
Wow! Wow! Spectacular dance!
This will always be my favorite dance ever! Beautiful and emotional
Still my all-time favourite dance ever. My only wish is that it was longer.
Magnificent interpretation and physical awareness complimenting both dancers. Kudos if Derek braved his trust and talent of Pickler! Sensational. Could watch grace forever. BT
Absolutely amazing performance. Bravo
She's always going to be my very favorite celebrity dancer!!!
I love them and the dance. They were wonderful so heart warming. PJ
