WTF You people saying 'bout this girl? What is youtube about? America's got talent or something? She made a beautiful composition and the fact that she wanted to express her feelings is more important than anything. If she didn't do this or that is what less matters. We shouldn't judge by just looking mistakes and stumblings. I love to dance, i'm not professional, i'm not a smarty and i don't care about DOING WELL. I care about doing something real to me. And if it's good for me then awesome! i found what i wanted. And she did, she feels happy and complete, she dance like she is.
The painter/worker in the background really tied up the loose ends of the story. We know he's probably suffering emotionally and he wants to join in the dance... but he's too afraid to be judged. Breathtaking.
Here I lay absolutely blown away and in tears after watching this beautiful mover express herself ever so deeply only to scroll down to see all the goofy little mind preferences typed up by viewers. I rarely comment on any you tube clip but def feel compelled this time. Lydia, thank you for bringing me so full in the moment and inspiring creative movement patterns. Perfect timing as Burning Man is just a week away!!!!!!
For people saying she's not any good. Actually!! She's really good, She's not tryig to tell a story. It's passion and pain expressed through the art of dance. It's not a regular dnce routine. You can tell through her movement it's pain and passion.
Ballet is such a beautiful art form and method of expression! Too bad I wasn't exposed to more of it when I was growing up. Thank God for the modern day Internet!
DesiPanda674 Oh, okay. I'm not familiar enough with all the specific dance forms to know the difference, so I had to google both 'ballet' and 'contemporary dance'. As you surely already know, ballet is often defined as an artistic form of dance that uses precise and highly formalized steps and gestures, which may be characterized by light, graceful, fluid movements. Not surprisingly, there is apparently a lot of confusion as to what exactly contemporary dance is, but as I expected, it is largely influenced by ballet. However, one source explained that it "stresses versatility and improvisation, unlike the strict, structured nature of ballet." So I guess the main difference is it is not as restricted. Hopefully, I am forgiven by most (including you) for not knowing the subtle differences. Let me rephrase my original post by saying, "Dance in general is such a beautiful art form and method of expression!"
I've probably watched this 20 times!!! Omg this was absolutely amazing! I'm a dancer and Lydia inspires me to reach for the stars and become a better dancer! She's so talented!!!
Such a beauty, I am completely impressed. NEVER STOP DANCING YOU ARE TRULY TALENTED. You have inspired me not to stop dancing and keep doing my best at ballet, contemporary and lyrical. Thank-you so much :)
i love this video. the choreography is beautiful but what i really find amazing is how you can tell how passionate she is about dancing. The floor hasn't been put it yet, the workers were currently painting the walls yet she still is completely tuned into her dancing. Stuff like this never fails to remind me how fantastic dance really is.
This is SO beautiful. Gosh I can't stop watching this. It makes me want to be a dancer now. Everything about this is beautiful. The dancing, the song and you! Good job! xx
That was stunning! Please make sure you keep dancing for as long as you possibly can you have a true gift!! + there were many breath taking moments in this but especially at 1.25.....wow.....
Your movements are pure beauty. Your dancing inspired me so much and I almost cried while watching you dance. It was so emotionally and breathtaking... *-*
This was beautiful. I was draw to this video because of its association with Ed Sheeran. He's an amazing musician and I have seen dances choreographed and hated them. I felt that they didn't do his song any justice. This is an emotional song. Especially the bridge. I'd like to say you are amazing. I'd love to learn this myself and put as much passion into my dance as you do. Good luck. You are amazing.
your technique is amazing and the tricks and moves you do in this dance is certainly advanced and very unique. you will grow into an even more beautiful dancer than you already are! keep posting videos because i'm looking forward to seeing you grow and improve
Could Not Keep my eyes off you. I thought it was quite amazing. You dance well and have nice strong moves. Would have loved to learn a thing or two from you to put a choreography as a surprised for my mommy's Born Day this summer.
This dance is absolutely amazing! I've been looking through some contemporary dance videos for inspiration in one of my Wattpad books and this is by far the best! :D
I loved that performance u showed so much passion and character into the piece... I just love it the whole time I was watching this video I had goosebumps....also those people who dislike this video stop hating because this was a beautiful piece
you are absolutely amazing!!! i will be rooting for you when you're on So You Think You Can Dance!! i hope and pray to be as good as you someday! keep dancing! you were born for it!
this dance is beautiful oh my gosh and i matched her chore to figure eight by eillie goulding and it lines up so well even with the lyrics at times. Amazing job though as a dancer i know how hard you have to work to make things fit but you really did this chore justice
Wow please compete this! this is an amazing dance!!!!! i love it! your so strong, flexible and its just amazing! how you would run and do a jump and continue spinning or something! i just love it! teach me please!
That was so incredibly beautiful. You have so much power and I just feel this immense sense of strength when I watch this. Please, please audition for So You Think You Can Dance or something like that! That was great. Keep dancing!
the person that commented on choreographing a hit to a strong beat was right! there are some strong single beats in the verses of the song that would have been really great if the steps hit the beat strongly too! in the first verse it was absent, but in the second verse I saw one or two and those moments were perfect. Also I wish I could dance as well as you, the artistry and control in this was amazing nonetheless!
This is amazing! You should really audition for one of them dance shows! You show your thoughts and feelings in this dance and we all can really see this! I hope to be like you one day
Hey! I'm a dancer also and I'm not sure if you will read this or reply but I wanted to tell you how much I admire your this. You have great strength and flexibility! You have amazing control in all these moves including in your arms, legs, feet, everything. I hope you don't stop dancing because you are just wonderful!
Absolutely awesome! I felt the heart !I witness the athleticism! your training is amazing !and I just love watching you dance! Truly artistic and wishing you all the very best :-)
She's amazing, there's no doubt there and I wouldn't be able to do half of it.. On the other hand, i know music, and her choreography doesn't match the song. Great work though, i'm truly impressed.
She shows lots of skill and beauty in this dance and it's definitely nothing to sneer at all I ask is that the recording not be as shaky next time. Other than that, really fantastic job! :)
THIS WAS THE MOST AMAZING DANCE I HAVE SEEN TO THIS SONG! lol I love it soo much, you're so talented and beautiful and I really hope you discovered and get a contract and be successful and happy! loll
Ay, dios! Yes, girl! I knew it was going to be beautiful from that first leap in the beginning. Please do Let Me in by Gabrielle Aplin. Such a beautiful song. It needs a really beautiful dancer like you!
wow. that was perfection!! you are crazy talented! your beautiful and so inspiring, my first video of yours, and i subscribed right away!!! NEVER STOP DANCING! :)
Bravo!!! You are a beautiful dancer!! I just started learning ballet at 24, I'm looking slightly less graceful. I don't know the name but that move at 2:10 is pretty neat. Like a surprise break dance in there.
This is absolutely amazing! I've also danced to this song many times and made up my own choreography for this song and yours is so much better. I admire you and your work. =) Keep it up!
omg this was AMAZING. You are a true inspiration when it comes to contemporary dance. I love this video. You should definitely audition for So you think you can dance. xx
OH MY FREAKING GOSH! that was so beautiful and i love that song and you just made the song come to life you are an amazing dancer and i hope that someday I'll be able to dance like you :)
You. Are. STUNNING! I could not find a single negative comment on this video. Your talent is so great, I would suggest you go onto being a professional, or try out for So You Think You Can Dance. You have an amazing gift that every girl wishes they could have, and I can tell that you truly love what you're doing. Never stop doing this because you are incredible.
you are CRAZY good! as a dancer myself, i can only imagine how exhausted you were haha but wow.. amazing job!!! i definitely look up to you now! keep it up
Oh the things I would do to dance like that...wow I'm so amazed right now It's really hard to type!! I'm a dancer and have been since I was little but you..you are astonishing!! Keep up the great work and feel free to make more video's ya know say like tips/advice on dancing, choreography to this dance step-by-step, and or other songs, pleaseee :) You are by far the best dancer I've ever seen!! #America'sGotTalentBound or #SYTYCD!

The control she has on her turns and extensions is sooooooooo on point! Excellent job *round of applause*
