Gordeeva & Grinkov - The Man I Love (1995)

@1994-1995 Stars on Ice
Music by Ella Fitzgerald

[@CarolanIvey]

Every woman - every human, really - wants a partner to look at them the way he looked at her.

[@TeeDee215]

There will never be anything else this beautiful on ice again. Absolutely stunning, and so romantic.

[@stellayang8661]

“There will never be anything else this beautiful on ice again.”

[@donnacook3150]

So very true

[@sonnymiracle]

Agreed

[@martheresa7550]

This was pure love and poetry. I cry.

[@nolaughingmatter]

This program probably best expresses the height of their beauty, romantic connection, and technical skill... so tragic to know that he would pass away just a few months later after this performance.

[@marianlizamientus3139]

The most beautifully romantic and loving program ever! 💞

[@46foryounger]

In all of my life, I have never seen true love like this.

[@lesleywilbourne7823]

Me neither

[@zhourong3761]

Only with a profound mutual love off ice, could they perform this program so beautifully on ice.

[@foxfoxer7688]

That was Russia

[@moodyblewis5881]

These two could melt the ice! RIP Sergei. You were the epitome of handsome masculinity.

[@rhondablack8079]

They will be together again❤️ My friend had a near experience years ago. She saw her Grandparents and her dog❤️with them❤️❤️❤️🙏

[@stellayang8661]

To watch Sergei Grinkov and Ekaterina Gordeeva skate, said choreographer Sandra Bezic, was like heaven.

[@patriciasmith5155]

The man we all love Sergei Grinkov R.I.P. Handsome

[@lesleywilbourne7823]

They had reached a time in their skating where they had become more expressive than ever. The love in their life flowed out through their routines. We were exceptionally lucky to have been able to share in their Poetry, love and artistry. Thank God for the recordings, now on KZbin so their skill and their story remain forever. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@donnacook3150]

The joy on her face during the last lift says it all. So, so beautiful! ❤️

[@rhondaramirez2563]

Yes! I also love how her arm drops at the end. I was so fortunate to watch them skate Live.

[@lindajack7969]

The joy on their faces tells it all!

[@cafesun5534]

This program is one of my favorites as it seems to be watching a scene from a movie．

[@patriciapettit1711]

THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE PERFORMANCES. THEY JUST FLOAT OVER THE ICE. AND THEIR LOVE AND TENDERNESS WITH EACH OTHER JUST FLOATS OVER THOSE WATCHING.

[@annierose8099]

The man she loves❣️ Gordeeva and Grinkov ⛸🌹🥰❤️

[@heatherg.9999]

They were an exceptional couple..who were so deeply in love so connected to each other..he was taken from her wat to soon..she was left heart broken..the love they shared was very special indeed..a lovely lovely couple they were so right for each other in every way..Sergei rest in peace..never forgotten..always remembered..and ekatatina just lovely beautiful women.. .

[@rebeccadelafuente5466]

I love this program for one reason. During the last left there’s a split-second where she looks at the audience like… Isn’t it great that we love each other? And he’s all mine! It’s almost like with a wink and a nod she shared how she really felt about him with the audience than anybody watching… Completely priceless.

[@pamelahermano9298]

Sergei lifts Katia like she weighed nothing. Because they made everything look so effortless, I sometimes forget how strong Sergei was.

[@barbarawashington4664]

Every one deserves a love like this. 💕 Breathtaking! I could watch this pair skate all day!

[@user-no1zv9yp9n]

Love all of their skating but this program has to be in the top 5. The 1988 Olympic long program actually took my breath away. I literally gasped watching that performance!

[@AJ-ld5mv]

2:22 the way they reach for each other ❤️❤️❤️

[@stellayang8661]

Elated that this performance is available. Completely mesmerized when I watched in 1995. Technique, trust and love for the ages.

[@janetpartyka6600]

These two had the entire package.

[@maryjobush9431]

there will never be anyone like they were

[@user-no1zv9yp9n]

I’m so grateful for these videos that we have to watch forever.

[@sharonsparks900]

How fluid and graceful and in sync.

[@karenhilker8074]

Everytime I watch these 2 I cry. The true beauty of their skating, their love for each other....then Sergi gone. I feel privileged to have seen them skate together. Such grace/beauty/ love/ loss

[@mariezurie7828]

One of the sweetest most sensual programs ever-just beautiful and in perfect time with each other. I will always think/feel that the doctors missed signs. Why didn't they pay attention to his father's extensive cardiac history and sudden death? I hope Ekaterina is happy and she can watch these videos and feel pure joy. Happy early birthday wishes to you. Lord bless you.

[@anja1627]

The doctors indeed missed signs. I think Sergei was misdiagnosed. :(

[@brookeclay5979]

This beautiful level of love has never been, nor will ever be, expressed on or off the ice ❤️

[@JoolieEm]

Katia was very lucky girl to be paired with such an incredible man. Not to say she isn’t an amazing woman herself. I think the success they achieved was only because the two were together. They meant to meet and experience this love 💕

[@lindagibson9528]

There'll never be another couple that can take they're place...Katia and Sergi forever ❤💙

[@charisselovelymaebasilio5167]

Beautiful but sad at the same time🥺

[@janetgeller7272]

Katia’s arm drop at the end, oh my - then his kiss right after that to her cheek that seemed just spontaneous from love. I hope she has now found the beauty and difference of little bit older love with her new husband. Much happiness to Katia and David. We will always love you Sergei. I just read Katia’s book “My Sergei” on Kindle. She wrote it in 1996. It was heart wrenching, but yet a joyous tale of love, family and the incredible athletic heights they achieved together. ♥️♥️

[@susiecox8413]

Pure skating magic....

[@RoroFin27]

This program and performance testifies that he stayed for a little while enough for her love for him to be shown to the world.

[@redridingsheeb1777]

I will always love these two. My go-to skating pair for all time. 😢

[@teresalee3567]

I revist this performance often

[@lisfong]

I remember when this aired on TV...these two still make me wanna cry. I'm glad she found happiness after Sergei.

[@aliceferrante8596]

There story is truly remarkable. They are so down to earth....so in tune to their bodies. ..and then able to portray. there is no way l could forget this story..to watch them is a joy...pure joy. l will feel the loss of this'll pairs skating. with these two...

[@teresalee3567]

Perfection on ice! their love for each other is so evident!

[@brendamurphy8654]

Beautiful, Nobody will ever equal to The Legendary G&G❣ This is 1 of my favorite performances by them...I can watch this on repeat❣ I Truly Miss Them, They're Love Shows In Everything They Did Together 💞⛸😚🌹🕇💝

[@sophianluna6406]

Pure magic and beauty. Absolutely unforgetable.❤ .

[@sharonadams8070]

She was beautiful, but he was so graceful and smooth. They remind me of Torvil and Dean.

[@mishalleroza-ingram6394]

What a beautiful, amazing and enchanting skate. They were a great pair on ice and in life. I wonder if he had anything happen before his heart attack that might've made him feel that something wasn't right. God bless you Sergei. ⛸🥇💜

Sergio died of a heart attack that same year. Heartbreaking.

[@foxfoxer7688]

Достаточно посмотреть на них 5 минут, как сразу становится ясно какая это чушь, вся эта затея с "мальчик с мальчиком" и прочие 42 пола. Мешали лепить новую нормальность? Тут не без novichok. Больно как-то резко здоровый спортсмен на тот свет отправился.

Tomorrow (Feb. 4, 2017) is Sergei's 50th birthday. I saw them skate this gorgeous program the day after his final birthday (Feb. 5, 1995) in the Stars on Ice show, Minneapolis, MN.

Doskonale dopasowani na lodzie jak i w życiu.Katia do nikogo nie pasuje jak tylko do niego.Nawet 2 mężowie po nim nie tworzyli takiej magi z nią na lodzie .Nie dane mu było długo żyć ale wielbiciele jego o nim pamiętają .Był wielki i nie zastąpiony.Zapisał się w tej dyscyplinie na zawsze.
