How These 7 Irish Lads Went Viral With Their Dance Videos - The Tradition of Riverdance

My grandpa emigrated from Belfast to Canada and he used to dance like this in our kitchen. And he played the spoons too. It was so cool

[@cmont4064]

LOL, so that is why I can play the spoons, 100% Irish Grandparents, did dance, I knew why, in every St. Patty's day parade in San Francisco! But when my Pa gave a set of spoons hooked together to learn how to make music, I thought OK, for you, I will play, used to get so embarrassed when a family gatherings he hand me some spoons and asked to play!, Thats a talent I have kept to myself till now lol, I thought it was a quirk, like his songs that were actually stories, like O Zipcoon(not sure of the spelling) ..there once was a man with a double chin, who could performed his skills on a violin ..... you get my drift I am sure LOL💚☘💚

[@PanglossDr]

They did a sort of 'Duelling Banjos' in one of the Riverdance shows between a pair of Irish guys and a pair of black guys. It was really interesting the contrast between the stiffness of the Irish and the relaxed style of the black guys. Then they reversed styles. I think the black guys won by a wee bit. I'm Irish by the way.

[@jerryoshea3116]

[@OddboxLife]

Why do Americans announce what colour they are? It's weird to anyone outside of America.

[@lesleyhubble2976]

@@OddboxLife no its not weird, specially in a country like the uk where any foreigner is highly susceptible to harassment based on their origin, yourube is FULL of videos of bad dentured brits with red irritated skins harassing brasilians, latinos, indians and so on for speaking their language on the phone or simply for being there.

[@Halli50]

When Riverdance took the world by storm during Eurovision in Ireland I fell for it, hook, line and sinker. The Irish music that was at the heart of it is irresistible. This is taking it to a new level by showing that contemporary music can be used as well with Irish Dancing.

[@ankavoskuilen1725]

Yes, that was the first time I saw it! It was so amazing! I have no english words enough to express how enthusiastic I was!

[@MsZoedog66]

It is definitely contagious. I have some Irish ancestry (as does half the world, it seems), and was proud when Riverdance came out. I had friends at the time who were a bit weird and tried to put it down. Probably because they can't do it, or feel the music for that matter! 🌵💗🍀🍀

[@dorothybobo5157]

Will always love Riverdance, too! 💜

[@alidavideo]

I saw Riverdance on stage when I was about 10. I'm in my mid 30s now and it's still my favorite show I've ever see on stage. The combination of the dance and that music really hits me in a certain way. I imagine anyone who has ever made fun of it has never seen the show. It's so beautiful.

Oh my Goodness! i love you guys already! I am African American I say that because its not many of us that you see in Irish dance classes such as I. Every since Michael Flatley and Jean Butler and Colin Dunne came on the scene in the early 90's I have wanted to learn so I started with taking tap dance in high school back in 1996 in which I learned the basics and some intermediate steps followed up by irish dance classes in Hawaii with 20 year veteran Irish Dance teacher Melanie Nance at jigthishawaii however, a misunderstanding between a student of hers and the Parent company in California led to Melanie giving up her position but she was phenomenal. I however only learned the 123's in softshoe but I gotta learn this before I die! LOL please I wanna eventually get into hard shoes and get faster like you guys. If you ever come to the Mississippi gulf coast I am game I am for real I know you guys are laughing but i am soooo serious I love the music, the flutes, Anuna and everything, great grandfather was Irish descent so yeah thanks for reading.
