Hey guys! First & foremost, I hope you guys liked the video & were left inspired!!!!
Second, we didn't want to choreograph ANOTHER dance video, we wanted to tell a STORY. Something different. Something challenging. So.... we decided to add a rope in the picture!
The reason we decided to call this piece, "Greed" is because throughout the dance, we are fighting to defeat the greed between us while dealing with the temptation of things that give us temporary happiness. There are a ton of pros/cons that come with a relationship, but when is too much? Too much to the point that it creates an internally unhealthy self. So when you add "abuse" to the picture, how do you get out of it?! Arn't you held back by the thought of the happiness/positives of the relationship that came before any abuse?
We feel a ton of people can relate to this story and we hope to inspire those who are in a scenario like this, that you CAN defeat it!!! Sooooo when Jade throws the rope on me & walks away, this is her defeating that greed and finally building the courage to say goodbye to what came with that relationship, abuse.

BEHIND THE SCENES & HOW WE CREATED THE VIDEO COMING VERY VERY SOON!
*** Funny thing is, Jade and I choreographed this piece in about 3 hour, in between another gig! With our mindset/ storyline being on the same page, we got a studio from basically 11-2am, red bull energy drink game strong, and out came this magic! The reason I believe Jade & I dance so well together is because we are both feeding off one another energy, at the same time adding our acting into the choreography to help create a whole different level of commitment! Its a true pleasure dancing beside one another!!

She was stronger than him because he needed her. She didn't need him.
Woah, you just gave me a new prospective on this...
I mean I get were you got the idea, but at 1:29 you could clearly see that he was to controlling and since she saw later on what he was doing she left him.

@@hydril1537 we belong to ourselves, idiot.
Helena Finaev I believe the beauty of this piece is different interpretations
I know this is a serious video and all, but...
*damn, she fit*
Why is that exactly what I said xd
😂 😂
Killer Animations lol
That's Jade Chynoweth for ya...
@Anabel Sanderson lol
Let's just appreciate the camera man for a minute...
Lol hes probably stronger than they are from running around them with the camera
Lol u right tho
Yeah it's like he danced with them
I think he was on a hoverboard. It showed it in the behind the scenes and I think it was on jade’s channel or something
He’s the main person
7 years later and this is still absolutely amazing.. like wow, im speechless. this is the type of dances i love, tells a story and full with emotion
1:25 to 1:40 was just BREATHTAKING. This piece was beautiful!!
I didn't realize until i clicked this and watched it again but this part is like he's controlling her. I don't know maybe I'm wrong.......
@@foolishdonut I believe you are correct
I WAS THINKING THE EXACT SAME THING!! (I know im late btw)
The part when he's moving his hand. She's following his every move to make him happy. Just wow.
So why is nobody talking about the fact that this was choreographed in 3 hours and was filmed at midnight!?
Checkin for ppl watching in 2024. Still gives chills
THESE CAN'T BE HUMAN!!!
😲😍😍😍😍😲
I don't even know what to say.
Speechless is an understatement...
And OMG Is that Jade Chynoweth she has grown soo much!!!❤
I was wondering the same thing!! Is that jade chynoweth?
@@denisemattingly7389
Yes it's her!! 😃
I still want them to date lol
but he's gay. So no
Cristian Morgan he isn't gay BC he was describing what he looks for in a GIRL
Cristian Morgan if he gay,he wouldn't be able to tell what he looks for in a girl ,he would have to tell what he looks for in a boy. so yeah he's not gay
Honey I'm gay. If I say he's gay, he's gay. Ricky Martin made a career of singing for women and dating super models and well, he's gonna marry a guy soon. Besides, what's wrong with being gay?
Nothing wrong with being gay. If ur gay then good for u but in not gonna be against gay people be that's just messed up. But my opinion u don't think he's gayCristian Morgan
Great concept video! I got chills.

I miss this Duo😢.... They should do something together in 2020💯.... Who else agrees?👀
Yesss. I miss them too
Corona dont agree
2021 now hehe
It's almost the end of 2022 now lol
2023 now peeps✌️😚✌️
I'm so happy that I got the meaning of the dance right. I was thinking that they were being greedy with each other but loving each other at the same time. It looked like they were struggling with each other and with the things they were doing or want to do. I think I kinda got it right.
Yeah, to my perspective it's an unhealthy relationship where they are both suffering but cannot put themselfs to leave until the woman relizes she is stronger than his grip and steps away. Love can be very painful and others use tension as an excuse but once you find your own light, it won't matter how deciving the other partner is. It's a truly fantastic dance, full of superlative emotion and connection
@@victorianaboyd8721 Thats such a strong statement. Although its true, this dance expresses just what you have said.
I'm watching this video six years after your post. Stunning! It's super hard to believe that you choreographed this piece in three hours! Looks like you read each other's mind, intuiting movement before it happened! That 's typically the product of years of partnership. Technical mastery, incredible synchrony + total emotional presence! Yes, disturbing in parts, but real. Riveting!
YASSS I LOVE WHEN MY TWO FAV DANCERS DANCE TOGETHER 😍😍🙌🏽🙌🏽
Octavia Simpson agreed now I want my money
i always come back to this video and it never fails to amaze me or tug on my heart strings. this is phenomenal
Same!! I searched all over for this video
I literally liked the video before I watched it and red the description😂😂
Same
same
so so good! the chemistry and everything! You need to dance together more!
Ye😊
seriously nobody's gonna talk about 1:26 or 1:55 ? it gives me so much chills
This piece reminds me of a book or movie or show that you watch over and over because you find something fascinating or beautiful about it every time, this is the 3rd time I've watched this piece today and probably 17th time this week...and it simply gets more beautiful
I watched that video like 100 times. Its soo outstanding. The message, the dancing, everything.
I have watched the other one when you guys were on the stage and that showing was amazing. This POV kind of version of the dance gives off a lot more emotion to it. Absolutely amazing.
Lexie Cooper where can I find that?
I love Jade! She’s an incredible dancer and tells stories so well through dance.
I dont even have words. Im speechless...You would think that they cant top their live performance at Willdabeasts event, but they managed to do it! These guys are truly beasts! I cant believe you made this in 3 hours and you know what i am so touched by this number. I havent stopped watching it. Both of you are blessed with your creativity and only bigger and better things ahead for you both! Look forward to the next time you dance together because this magic is truly unbelievable to watch!
One of my favorite pieces to this day . Both these artists have gone through so many changes since five years ago it’s hard to believe this was five years ago but it is ageless art enduring GREATNESS thru time
Woww Jade is one of the best female dancers in the world, the guy I don't know but I think they really told an amazing story
His name is josh
Such a deep story and amazing performance!! Just wonderful. Keep it up guys!
Had to revisit this one! It's incredible how far you've come as a dancer, choreographer, & artist man... Your hard work shows & I couldn't be happier for you! Keep reppin' the Chicago area well!
How incredible! All these moves represent hours of practice. And they fit so well with the music.
The backdrop of the night sky city and the greyish empty room make the two dancers stand out perfectly.
I've watched the other one, but I definitely love this POV. 😍 Ya guys slay so much.
Wow this hit me hard. Such a powerful and inspiring piece. I never thought a dance could get me so emotional and it's not even my first time watching it! I always find stories told through dance and art the most interesting and effective because everyone can draw their own message from them. I may not be in the same exact situation you showed but I was able to relate it to something I'm going through and made me see things from a different light. I'm seriously beyond proud of you and jade! I've watched the both of you for a few years now and it's amazing to watch you grow. I'm so happy to see you get recognition for your hard work and dedication. No doubt you guys have years of success coming your way! ♡♡
I relate to a guy worrying about himself and being Greedy and treating me as if I was a trophy and not a human. This is touching to me. I didn't want to leave him but I had to
Powerful to this day. Thank you Josh & Jade. This doesn't just speak to the greed betweeen a man and a woman. But the greed fight within us to hold in what we have or to give it away for others and oursleves. Blessing upon blessings. ymih.
Their chemistry is amazing.. and choreography is freakin amazing..the camera angles are everything!! Ok I’m done
I freakin loved this, the expression, the energy, the background.. the talent from all involved.. ok now, for real..I’m done
this is brilliant...the little dust particles, the camera motion, the dancing...all of it came together so well. Thanks for inspiring! Now i want to make a concept video
This is such an amazing way to put into view what a relationship or love should not be and why!! People are meant to be free & want to be in the situations they are in... when they are life is good & harmonious 💜✌🏻 thank you for sharing!!
Yaaaaassssssss I've been waiting for this. I don't think you understand how much I love them and this dance
this is what i've been waiting for my whole life.
camryn collier same
I just can take it. YOU GUYS ARE ABSOLUTELY OUT OF THIS WORLD!😭❤️
I come back to this video every year or so when I feel I need to be thoroughly impressed🙂
This was beautiful. I felt all the emotions being portrayed. I hardly ever, in my personal capacity, understand stories when it comes to dance but i got this the first time. Wow!
You guys are the epitome of chemistry. 🙏
LOVED THIS! You are both such amazing dancers. Love the chemistry between you two
Loved it greatly as I can relate. There's so much with dance, to watch as a story unfolds no words ever have to be spoken. Thank you for making this and sharing!!!
I've watched this video over a hundred times in the last few years and it still amazes me!
everything was excellent - dancers, choreography, concept. I sware I have watched this about million times, it's perfect Josh. Great job
Absolute Thriller.
Love the way the stunning dancers played the whole plot. Amazing Work!

Josh Killacky and Jade Chynoweth, both of did great. That choreography went excellent. I loved it!
"Defeat the greed and finally get the courage to say goodbye!"💜💙
The more I watch this video the more I find it breath-taking. We can see the control in every moves to create a fascinating effect while telling a story. What a beautiful artwork! 👏🏻
I absolutely love the story told through this amazing dance.

This brought me to tears this is beautiful. You guys are amazing they way your bodies just move so beautiful so smooth. Just breath taking.
This is such a beautiful piece in a weird way the choreography was stunning and sometime it was as if they made their own beats in the music it had so much emotion as well
Ok I freaking love the two of you dancing together and this is my favorite video rn ok 😍😭
I love it ALL. Choreography, dancers, music, performance, story telling through dance and camera man ❤️
Marvellous choreography and storytelling from all the artists involved
This needs for popularity than it has ⭐️ I've watched this like 50 times
Forever my fave choreography sequence, the *detail* in every move for every line of the song...💜
I agree , still watching in 2022
3 years in and this is still my favorite
1 of the Most amazing choreographs I have ever see. Wow. Just breathtaking. I could really feel the story⭐❤️❤️
This is the best i ever seen of this song it was amazing
Yo this is beautiful, my two faves in one video ❤️
Perfection, you guys are seriously grace in motion and perfection!
Both of you are amazing dancers. SLAY!!!
I LOVE THIS
THIS IS AMAZING, BREATH TAKING, GREAT
beautiful story, very moving
This emotion and face expressions you have, i couldn't really put a finger on it. It was really amazing. Great job guys.
THAT is the definition of talent
If anyone is wondering the meaning of this song, it’s a man who is abusive to his girlfriend or wife and the rope represents his control over her. He fights with the woman over the rope and in real life this represents hurting her but then trying to apologise.
After this, they both set the rope down equally, but that all changes when they both rush forward and the rope starts to move and get unsteady, the woman has had enough, so she leaves him.
*DoNt ThAnK mE*
ThAnK yOU
This is spectacular and very moving.😭🔥🔥Well done!!
This actually brought me to tears, so powerful
So beautiful ! Very deep! I love this idea to tell a story thanks to the dance !
THE DESCRIPTION♡♡♡
This deserves more views!!!
This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in my life
This could be a scene out of a step up movie
THAT WAS SOOOOO GOOD!!!!! I CAN'T EVEN RN!!! THE BEST!!!
Did anyone else read the description, because the choreography team murdered all the steps and timed the rhythm and beats perfectly that the passion from the storytelling really met the storyline. Plus, stage setting. Yes! Perfectionism at hand👌
wowzzzzers ive been a fan of Unity & Diversity and a lot of the key dancers you're all slaying it and it's amazing to see you all evolve
since i start watching dance video, josh and jade are my favourite dancers... passion, energy and power! this was an amazing video! thank you guys sooo much!
I LOVE IT!!! WWWOOOWWWW!!!
I honestly have no words but one... AMAZING! It would be a honour to work with you guys one day! Keep killin it
Absolutely breathtaking. I'm speechless!!!
This is my favorite choreography and dance from Josh ever. Amazing!
O MY DAMN!! This was perfection😍
If I were her I'd be like "heehee, sorry guys, I can't stop fangirling. Josh is touching me. I promise I remember the choreo."
That's one of the most beautiful things i have ever seen.
I've watched this about 100000000000 times I still can't stop! You guys are amazing
