probably the best two dancers anyone will ever see!!!! Flatley is WAY TOO DRAMA QUEEN!!! Colin is smooth and Jean, well they both compliment eachother :D
I have watched both finales with Flatley and Dunne numerous times and I must admit I like this one much better because of the increased involvement of Jean Butler. I would love to have just one dance with Jean Butler, she is a living doll!
This remains the best performance of this particular piece. The new one just doesn't have quite the same punch, and Michael Flatley's was a gigantic boon to his own ego. This one is the most balanced, the most spectacularly choreographed...and just...the best.
ech0tang0 so agree prefer Colin over Michael Flatley any day of the week at least he’s not a sleaze ! More professional to me ! Plus he’s a nine times world Irish dancing champion put that in your pipe and smoke it Michael or as my brother calls him lord of the pants says it all really !
I saw them when they performed at Hammersmith Apollo....it was one of the most amazing performances I have ever seen....and made me so emotional that I cried :o) They are totally amazing....and I would love to see them again :o)
Jean Butler looks positively radiant dancing next to Colin Dunne. Her smile and relaxed demeanor are a far cry from being next to that jerk Michael Flatley.
Lovely Jean Butler captivates us again.Some how the Irish dance is something you can never forget.I love the whole thing,Michael Flatley has probably made his money by now.I'm amazed the girls are all so lovely,Ireland is a nation that sadly gets overlooked!
Right. Not taking anything away from Michael Flatley, but Colin is technically brilliant. Light on his feet, curteousvto Jean Butler, genuine connection. He is a brilliant dancer far better than Flatley I know nothing about Irish dancing but this chap is technically brilliant. Anyone watched Blackbird yet? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Juan Jose Morales What a fine man, classy, charming, learned, and handsome -Tyrone Power The majority of the most handsome men that ever lived have been Irish (of Irish heritage) - Tyrone Power JFK and JFK, Jr John Wayne ...and beautiful women Maureen O'Hara Grace Kelly Katie McGrath Allison Doody Dominique McElligoty Irish men truly stunning - ...and my late husband and my son - (I do not jest nor brag w/o fact - JFK, Jr is the only one that would be close to Michael) he was breathtaking -
Beth Bartlett John Wayne are you serious he isn’t of Irish heritage and for another Errol Flynn that she mentioned is australian from Tasmania and Tyrone power don’t think he is either and Tom cruise has never claimed to be of Irish heritage either and don’t get me started on that atrocious accent in far and away . I don’t do an accent out of respect for my Irish family annoys me and makes me cringe when Americans do !
No where as good as Michael Flattery. Colin Dunne is a man dancing, could be anyone. Michael Flattery is BOOM, in your face oozing sex appeal, mesmerising, he grabs your attention so much so that you cannot look away. If Riverdance with Colin Dunne was the first one I had seen, I would have enjoyed the sound, the skill and thought "Yeah ok" and that would have been it. The proof in Michael Flattery's ability is that he went on to have his own very successful show.

Agree prefer these two I wouldn’t say drama queen more a sleaze at least Colin isn’t cracking on to women half his age the way Michael did !
@@michelleflood8220 Inexorable, my dear. Also despicable. Inexorably despicable.
Colin has noble and humble charisma and fire in his dancing. Liked him always more than Michael.
Flatly was always too look at my open shirt and really bad mullet
The chemistry between Jean Butler and Colin Dunne is just amazing.
anyone else just love the way he looks at her toward the end?
The best look ever... 😍😍😍
just good friends? who were they kidding???
Dunne'smile is so charming, I love that smile
I have watched both finales with Flatley and Dunne numerous times and I must admit I like this one much better because of the increased involvement of Jean Butler. I would love to have just one dance with Jean Butler, she is a living doll!
Agreed. However I wish Jean would have gotten a hardhow solo instead of the pa de deaux
This remains the best performance of this particular piece. The new one just doesn't have quite the same punch, and Michael Flatley's was a gigantic boon to his own ego. This one is the most balanced, the most spectacularly choreographed...and just...the best.
I totally concur. I saw these two years ago and have never forgotten two things. First the noise which was incredible and the technical skill!
I've loved Riverdance since I was five years old and let me tell you, no one will be able to top this pair.
ech0tang0 so agree prefer Colin over Michael Flatley any day of the week at least he’s not a sleaze ! More professional to me ! Plus he’s a nine times world Irish dancing champion put that in your pipe and smoke it Michael or as my brother calls him lord of the pants says it all really !
Doesn't that just give you the chills? So incredible
I love the way he looks at her, she looks at him, and they look at each other.
I LOOVE this clip - love Colin, love Jean... their chemistry is amazing. And I just love that they can all make music with their feet!
Collin Dunne is three times the dancer than Michael Flatley will ever be. Change my mind lol
Jean Butler is my dream lady. She is exquisite...in every sense of the word.
.
I saw these in Australia, brilliant
My favorite show of all time!!!!! I love riverdance!!!!!
Ce couple de danseur est magique , Jean Butler est vraiment la beauté et la féminité a elle seule .
Beautiful and it seems like yesterday - we were all so young -
I hope they are well -
Namaste'!
I saw them when they performed at Hammersmith Apollo....it was one of the most amazing performances I have ever seen....and made me so emotional that I cried :o) They are totally amazing....and I would love to see them again :o)
Jean Butler is sooo beautiful!!
Synchronicity at its finest !
That’s pure magic.😍🥰😘
I love how the sound of the taps is clearly intentional, especially from 3:27-3:47

In St. Patrick's Day sentiment.....Butler and Dunne...
The Riverdance version of "You're The One ThatI Want!"
I love the bit when all the dancers come down together + the Shot Gun is just phenomenall!! x i Love Jean Butler + Collin Dunne! x
Wish these two would have dated! They would make such a cute couple! Such chemistry on stage!
electrifying!
Jean Butler may very well be the most beautiful woman ever to grace God's green Earth.
jeeeez that musta took a lota practice
this is amazing
i wish i cud dance like this
Was für eine Frau!!
Was für eine Truppe!!!!!
Jean is Kind of Woman ,I can not stop loving.
They are The Best !Working hard ,incredible good
looking .And when they love You ,then for real.
Belisimo.
I absolutely agree with you
definatelly a :come hither: look!
@scifiseductress According to wikipedia, they danced together in college, so maybe they also dated.
wow
The answer to Pontius Pilate's "What is truth?"
Right.
Not taking anything away from Michael Flatley, but Colin is technically brilliant.
Light on his feet, curteousvto Jean Butler, genuine connection.
He is a brilliant dancer far better than Flatley
I know nothing about Irish dancing but this chap is technically brilliant.
Anyone watched Blackbird yet? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Perfection. Colin Dunne is a far better dancer than Flatley. Jean is amazing.
Do all Celtic women look like Maureen O'Hara, Rhonda Fleming, Nicole Kidman and Jean Butler?
Juan Jose Morales no not really well those from my family don’t !
I much prefer the soft shoe solo in the 1995 show than this hard shoe one
I LOVE Collin Dunne!!!!! I think He and Jean Butler are amazing and I prefer them together! Micheal is a good dancer but to much into himself.
notice how he only smiles when she comes on?
sadly, no she has a different husband
Jean and Colin quit riverdance to create their own irish dancing show 'dancing on dangerous ground'.
i see blur
For that matter, do all Celtic men look like Errol Flynn, Tyrone Power and Tom Cruise?
Juan Jose Morales
What a fine man, classy, charming, learned, and handsome -Tyrone Power
The majority of the most handsome men that ever lived have been Irish (of Irish heritage) -
Tyrone Power
JFK and JFK, Jr
John Wayne
...and beautiful women
Maureen O'Hara
Grace Kelly
Katie McGrath
Allison Doody
Dominique McElligoty
Irish men truly stunning -
...and my late husband and my son - (I do not jest nor brag w/o fact - JFK, Jr is the only one that would be close to Michael) he was breathtaking -
Beth Bartlett John Wayne are you serious he isn’t of Irish heritage and for another Errol Flynn that she mentioned is australian from Tasmania and Tyrone power don’t think he is either and Tom cruise has never claimed to be of Irish heritage either and don’t get me started on that atrocious accent in far and away .

@LuinaeLove Looks like the praties grow small again over there.
he needs some platform tap shoes
Hugh Jass hes using the correct shoes flattley used tap he wanted the crisper sound but dunne is using the correct shoe
Thing is I agree he is wearing the better shoes but the ONLY fault with Colin and Jean on stage is he was just a HAIR too short.
No where as good as Michael Flattery. Colin Dunne is a man dancing, could be anyone. Michael Flattery is BOOM, in your face oozing sex appeal, mesmerising, he grabs your attention so much so that you cannot look away. If Riverdance with Colin Dunne was the first one I had seen,
