[@lexdunn4160]

Such yearning, such inconsolable yearning. There were many fabulous dances on this show, but this will always be my favourite. I get tears in my eyes every time.

[@greatwesternsky]

This was SO underrated. Ugh. Beautiful.

[@MissLuluKawaii]

I keep coming back to this routine. One of my all time favorites. I am moved every time.

[@thenyouliedtome]

I CAN'T BELIEVE COMFORT COULD DANCE THIS SO BEAUTIFULLY!

[@vipjacq]

I never thought a doxology could be so beautiful,,, absolutely amazing performance, mia is such a genius...

[@RJSMITH001]

This was beautiful! My all time MIA MIRACLE was “Everything she does is Magic” I will never be able to get that choreography out of my mind!

[@inutrasha94]

i had to watch this season when i was in the 10th grade for dance class and honestly its the only one i paid real attention to and got chills from. and I still get chills. simply beautiful

[@contemdance14]

this is one of the most powerful pieces i've seen in my life, there are no words to describe these emotions, it's just breathtaking.

[@preetmendiratta]

My eyes, my ears and my heart have never seen, heard or come across something so gracefull and so beautifull, just out of this world!

[@bdawgz]

katee is stunning in this. her movement and emotion are captivating. even the raw/no makeup look works so well.

[@sofiassoawesome]

katee's face at the end literally made me cry

[@shortsparks]

Absolutely breathtaking. Even the audience was silent, thank you Mia Michaels.

[@scm0717]

Absolutely stunning. I am so glad this is on KZbin. This is one of the most beautiful dances performed on SYTYCD.

[@NeoSerenityMKRE]

[@alperry02]

I had forgotten about this performance!!!! OMG! So incredible!

[@TheEmilyraven]

It's seriously like a group of angels just fell and are mourning their heavenly home.

[@beforeifall20]

I'm playing this song in my school's band for an in school mass, and every time I play it, I think and imagine this dance. So beautiful.

this collection.. aww .the stage is calling me.

[@doularayof691]

Will always be my favorite season IVREAL IVEVER

[@cherrybite77]

I have heard this piece is symbolic of the movie 'The Ring'. The woman in the well, the hand over the ear, the sitting on the side of the well, the blue light (and static like staging) the pulling down of another victim, the hurting, sobbing, etc. Plus the long hard and the costume (image of the rings at the end).

[@chazmagz]

i love this soooooo much!!!!!!!!!!! brilliant

[@sweets06]

simply amazing!

[@TheMoespice35]

Wonderful Piece! Amazing !

[@sarahbeepark]

wahhhhhhh im crying my eyes out......so beautiful i am speechless

[@bicycletteviolette]

This was truly an amazing combination of a talented choreographer and extraordinary dancers. I'm in awe at how beautiful yet eerie it is. I can't find a clip of Mia telling the story behind this choreography.. Does anyone know it?

[@melizmatea]

It is eerie, isn't it! Which is partly why I love it so much!

[@fabianaaveta1511]

I love this...................... From Italy

[@gl0309]

WOOW SPEECHLEESS

[@mckennadancegirl32]

THIS IS AMAZING!!!!! :)

[@chassetriel]

MIA IS BACKKK :)))))))

[@bdawgz]

I frickin love 1:15 - 1:30. And Katee kills it.

[@LMmccallL57]

Beautifully chilling.

[@july96xoxo]

*speechless* wow!

[@vicboi87]

it is one of the most painfully beautiful things i've ever seen

[@lenny_0323]

This dance has stuck with me ever since I saw it, so glad I remembered to come favourite it :) but also I remember in the part before the dance I think it must have been Mia saying what the dance was about. Does anyone remember what she said? I think she said it was meant to be about like 5 little girls who died or something? I wish I could remember :/

[@dgvelkgrove]

wow... amazing..

[@girlwithaboysname1]

the emotion...

[@TheLaurenp123]

everyone else have a fuckin seat and respect Mia michaels and her genius

[@melizmatea]

This is just stunning. It's beautiful but sort of disturbing! It's like Picnic at Hanging Rock, Spring Awakening, the David Bowie Black Star video and the The Ring all in one. haha Seriously though, Mia Michaels is genius and the dancers were fantastic.

[@thenyouliedtome]

@timetoflytothecheese EXACTLY. i mean she can dance ball room really well too. SHE'S AMAZING

[@jdccarter1]

Beautiful

[@KelsEyeMurpow]

Wow. Mia Michaels, you beautiful genius.

[@hugojesusurrutia]

beautiful,

Lovely

[@JuanGarcia-bk2dr]

Wow

[@CannotBeNamedx]

@IMAGINETHAT1018 I don't think Mia will come back to the show ever again. I've read somewhere that she left and has no intention to come back to the show.

[@elli1327]

Somebody link the lyrics? Cant find this version

[@dreamliverock]

I would be curious to know the judges' reaction to this piece.

[@brickmonster]

the loss of innocence. the despair that comes with being pure in an ugly world. girlhood lost. i think it is for the ladies.

[@gilbertgirl2792]

was this sytycd canada?

[@JonnyTDI]

what is the dance about??

[@DiegoRoV18]

Mia please come back and work with jakob and melanie! :)

[@BFFFL16]

awwwwwwe ^_^

[@kmed88714]

[@MaestraWashu]

@MRSrobbypattinson I know what you mean. The long hair over their faces at the beginning makes them look a bit like onryo. Still, it's a beautiful dance.

[@darkmay200]

hitman blood money

[@BeautyDanceFashion99]

That was amazing, but the whole moving forward on the knee kinda ruined it

[@screamemmaleigh]

this is good, but i'm sorry it's not "breathtaking" i don't see how you'd think so.

[@TheLaurenp123]

Emmaleigh Madison 7 years later but are you fucking serious? Show yourself out bitch

[@TheLaurenp123]

7 years later but are you fucking serious? Show yourself out bitch

[@MRSrobbypattinson]

It was good and all but the long hair made them look possessed in my opinion lol sorry

[@sarkaBednarova]

3 people don't have a heart...

[@Arohlwing]

Ridiculousness.

[@yogurtmachine]

Katee's subtle moves like her slight quivers are so beautiful!
