This was amazing he's like another George Sampson I could tell how much it meant to him and I think people have told him he's not good enough or something and they don't know what there talking about and some people are like boys can't dance but yes they can't unbelievable

[@HFXmermaid]

[@fitness-ov4rk]

Beautiful! Thank you for inspiring us with your pure talent. A real credit to watch you. I know how hard it is to be a dancer.

[@PracticalPerry]

Gosh I wanna date this guy. Great athleticism and artistry at the same time. I wonder if he speaks Scottish Gaelic?

[@martinmillar7137]

Mon Scotland ❤ male dancer's are my weak point tbh..always have been just because of the stereotyping that tends to go on but more than that the absolute force of nature a man brings to the floor is often overlooked and underappreciated. Not having a weird dig at female dancers or anything am just saying..as a scot whos male and who loves dancing its rare to see many just full send it..and i appreciate it..

[@zetaweaver7476]

what a guy

[@BLAB-it5un]

I loved seeing this the first time without much knowledge or background other than the link to Kodi. Now I want to dig into it more to see if there is more to the water and the lyrics in the song and perhaps to a broader theme artistically. I suspect there is but the judges, even Bruno, didn't seem to get it. Bruno is probably reacting more for the showmanship aspect than the true artistry in terms of an immediate TV show reaction. I hope there is a depth to this that I didn't catch the first time and that there is more of a link to the lyrics and story in Kodi's song that will reveal itself more with a second and third watching.
