Lord of the Dance - Stolen Kiss HD

Lord of the Dance live at The Point Theatre in Dublin on July 2, 1996 / Stolen Kiss; Michael Flatley, Bernadette Flynn, Gillian Norris

[@venuscrest]

I think this version is the best because you can see and feel all the emotions within this dance. Innocence, attraction, jealously and love.

[@laurentubertrodelkind3252]

I see so much versions of this dance... and I totally agree!! It’s so 🔥😅

[@arewethereyetvlogs3655]

This is by far my favorite! - I wonder if real life how it played out, and if there was a reason it was more passionate than in feet of flames.

[@nurselaykan3721]

The slow walk and almost shy expression when Michael comes out is what cemented this as my favorite version of this dance.

[@endurancegirly]

This was my grandfathers favorite tune from Lord of the Dance and he passed away a few years ago :'') I miss him

[@jolenemurray4929]

No one can do it better than Bernadette and Gillian

[@NaTaz883]

As a kid I thought this was the most romantic thing ever!

[@itsjojustjo]

This version is by far the best, flatly didn't know when to stop messing with things and it lost its charming simplicity The show became more broadway with the constant reinventing!

[@lak1ss]

Completely agree

[@KimCarter]

What I don't understand is, why -- once he had a winning formula -- didn't he branch out and try other stories?? There's so many things he could've done! Or brought in other people to tell new stories. I'm only now seeing all the times it's been redone, and I'm just like ... dude! There are other stories! heehee

[@jocelynharris-fx8ho]

I agree. Here in 2024, the show has become too sleazy and sexualized with the females in "next to nothing" costumes, the temptress is now wearing black leather pants instead of the beautiful red dress and the men are bare-chested..😮 yuck !!! No more focus on Irish dance and culture....now it's an hour long combination of Victoria's Secret/ Chippendales and the music is awful too. No more Ronan Hardiman....now it sounds like heavy metal music. The show has been ruined

[@tamelamcghee1458]

Hand-down, this was the best version of Lord of the Dance. Subsequent shows became a bit more trashy in nature. So unnecessary when the dancing and story speaks so much for itself. No need to ruin it. This was a gem. I remember watching it with my daughter from beginning to end. We were completely intrigued. Quite a beautiful masterpiece

[@jocelynharris-fx8ho]

I agree. I caught flack from people, when I mentioned that the show had become too sexually explicit. The segment known as "Breakout" has morphed into a strip dance, with the sports tops and high waisted shorts being traded for bras, thong underwear and stockings. The men are bare chested and the Dark Lord now looks like the Terminator. In this version, Daire Nolan had on a mask but you could still see enough of his features, that you knew what he looked like. In the more recent versions of the show, you don't know what the dancer looks like at all and don't get me started on the change in music.😮 Ronan Hardiman's compositions, were as much a part of the show as the dancing....now it sounds like heavy metal... Lord of the Dance got corrupted and I would not pay to see this show...unless it goes back to the original choreography, music and costumes.

[@VeraJaures]

this is the show i remember from when i was just a kid. remember hating the "red one".. this is absolutely beautiful

[@athenachiu3648]

me too lol. “white the good, red the bad.” 😂

[@keithgilbert915]

My wife walked down the isle to this beautiful song. Brings me right back to that 2/26/16

[@dashiesbbgurl]

Did a girl in a red dress come up to you and try to take you away? 2:39 🤣🤣

[@murrietakenitri2157]

​@@dashiesbbgurlhe probably wished😂

[@murrietakenitri2157]

@keithgilbert May God Bless you and your loved ones in this world and the next..Amēn

[@georgiam220]

Whenever I watch this I just never want it to end. Cry every time I watch this, being brought up watching Lord of the Dance since a young child, and it always fills my heart with warmth

[@jessicaf2270]

I began dancing because of this 💜

[@GravityGrave]

Me too

[@turnbull251]

Same here pet ❤

[@MEDSEC20]

Much prefer this version to the revised one in later shows - I think it is more romantic.

[@MissSandy93]

Bernadette had to be soo nervous...dancing with Michael...her heart must be beating very fast;) She was just 17 years old...! I love her dancing 4-ever!

[@metal.angell]

@@Tom-pg4hi why does everyone always need to react so negatively? She simply meant that Bernadette was extremely young back then and Michael was and still is a Legend when it comes to dancing. Of course she would be nervous to dance with him, this surely must be like dancing with someone you idolise! Who wouldn't be nervous?:)

[@Grulish]

@@Tom-pg4hi because you have no antenna

[@zebrabarn]

This is the most romantic thing ever.

[@FORTNITEMYSTERY]

Yeah sure it is watching your other half dance with another woman

[@dashiesbbgurl]

@@FORTNITEMYSTERY his fault for *allowing* her to come in between their relationship

[@toughcookie5966]

this music ❤ i grew up watching this with my mum she loved this x good memories x rip mum

[@HakanaXKai]

I don't think anyone can ever replicate the beauty and passion and drama of this entire dance film as well as the dancers.I was 7 when I saw it and this will never leave me.I'm soo happy to own the DVD and soundtrack.No performance will best this original (except for Michael himself of course lol)

[@athenachiu3648]

same here. Ronan Hardiman’s music pieces are pure perfection.

[@patrickworkman1014]

The most beautiful dance of all time

[@thebower8027]

This is the epitome of romance, heart's all a flutter.

[@lynettemarion5374]

Never a more sexy handsome stud of a fabulous dancer, Michael had it all!!! ❤ had such a crush on him, so did millions of others!!! But my husband was a good sport about it, he even downloaded shows for me!!!

[@k2ks414]

I LOVE when the Siren comes in with the hard shoe. I've watched this show so many times and still love listening to it.

[@erikpannemans2865]

Still the best show ever. Even after more than 24 years!

[@sunflower_1990]

A truly classical timeless masterpiece😍😍😍 The way Bernadette dances with Michael staring into her eyes and holding her is so intense and magical yet is so encapsulating that every girl wishes she could experience that romantic deep feeling with a man😍😍😍

[@Oddsox15]

Saw this on tv when i was tiny, saw it live when i was 5/6, this dance and river dance was the most beautiful thing i had ever seen, now watching it again 14 years later, and it still is!

[@lena.lk9817]

childhoodmemory... made me cry

[@nahliinahlii778]

This was my grandmother’s favorite and me and my sisters watched this with her when we were little girls, I’m in my 30s now. This was one of my favorite parts as I admired the lady in red because I had dark, curly hair and never seen a princess with long, dark, curly hair like that even though Gillian was not a princess in LotD I seen her as one lol I too loved her red dresses and outfits! ❤ So much nostalgia this video brings 🥹

[@KylieReece89]

You can feel the emotion and love between Michael and Bernadette he is so gentle with her ❤

[@caseyscruggs9087]

ive seen it more than a dozen times and one time live, and all I can say is its poetry

[@sagepup6782]

how did Michael Flately make this kind of dance erotic and stirring??? I mean wow

[@lindabateman2425]

beautiful always loved these dances cant watch enough could watch all day

[@monkeytimeline308]

i love irish dance it is my passion i have doing since i was two years old and i am twelve and when get older i hope i can dance just as good as that

[@jolenemurray4929]

This is still the best.

[@ng3057]

this is my standard of love , this is why i have never been in a relationship before haha im 21 .

[@tamonettX500]

I will love this forever :) Every time I watch this, their beautiful movements, all I can think of is beautiful horses

[@VinsaKenobi]

haha, hmm never thought of that. However this production is full of symbolism that the audience is left to interpret themselves, that's why it's legendary! Ya lot's of childhood memories come back with this show :)

[@Amaryllis87]

from time to time i think, a combination of ballet and soft shoe irish dance would look even more fairy. wow!

[@MFrainbow]

Lovely Saturday for all. Good evening and have all good start today ❤🍀🤗🍀❤🤗

[@revacohen]

@1JudgeMental1 Im glad to see i'm not the only one who fantasizes about him. One thing I also noticed about this dance was how assertive he seemed, while Soiresse seemed resistant. He obviously wanted to show her how much he loved her. That was moving.

[@foivoslegrand5445]

Αυτη ειναι η πιο καλη ερμηνεια και version από ολες !!!

[@Astarte45]

I very much prefer this version to the sexed up 2011 reboot.

[@hbanfill]

That kiss didn't look very stolen to me...XD All the same, this will forever be my favorite part of Lord of the Dance.

[@Smiley90311]

my all-time favourite of LotD...I'm sooo in love with the music, the emotions and of course the dance! ♥

[@ojessiemaco]

we do this dance in our dance group & it's just so grace full

My dad has the dvd, but I wanted to see it in the moment all xD

I know. That was funny. Michael pulling Gillian's hair.

2:59 I wondered why that sound effect was there lol.

Og riverdance and this version of lotd f9rever the best

how would you choose....cinnamon and spice....both a treat.....

[@annette45111]

great dance to see. :)

[@DiiDee66]

[@deluxie1]

Bernardette Flyn es una excelente bailarina de danza irlandesa, ella es el alma del señor de la danza, me hubiese gustado ver este espectáculo, aun ella sigue manteniéndose vigente junto a su esposo se presentaron en superstars y tienen una academia de baile.

[@Nofredede]

Wunderschön....

[@carlogambino1979]

Seen the with my first gf 1998 Crock Park, Dublin, I was 19 and in lust....but I got it mixed up with love.

[@hbanfill]

Yes, I know it's an expression. A stolen kiss is an unexpected kiss, or when someone kisses you when you don't want them to. I was saying that didn't seem to be the case here.

[@andreaswrangel1507]

I Love u dancer girl...

oh oAo I never knew such a thing existed.That's really cool! thanks ^ ^

[@JC-wq8ye]

Y’all don’t know HOW bad I wanted to be the chick in red 😂

[@fionahilt1581]

Bernadette is around 17 here, Flatley was was nearly 40. I know it's a beautiful piece, but I just can't get past that

[@FORTNITEMYSTERY]

Oh wow

[@user-ft1zo7fh8l]

Bernadette looked like 30s or 40s years old.........

[@edwardeggplant1676]

and then to do it again just years later.. I agree with you tho! even if I am 4 years late...

[@VinsaKenobi]

I think then white girl symbolizes love while the red girl symbolizes lust, so when Flatley dances with the white girl it's gentle and beautiful. When he dances with the red girl, it's more intense and rough (in a way). After he tugs on her hair, it doesn't seem like she minded at all ;) you know what i mean.

[@GravityGrave]

Morrighan (red) is literally the Temptress, meant to distract the Lord of the Dance from his fight against evil. To contrast, is Saoirse (white) and her love for him, which makes him stronger. Naturally there is a confrontation, but it's really a battle within himself.

[@nahliinahlii778]

@@GravityGrave you know your stuff. I always wanted to know the backstory of LotD ever since I’ve watched when I was a little girl. But I always had the idea that the lady in red was seducing him for the wrong things and trying to steal him from the lady in white.

@Phionna44 if you are referring to the name of the song it's called "Lord of the Dance" by Ronan Hardiman

[@PWR2023AOC]

Amen and Amen. Love you all. xxx

[@TheJavott]

first time i saw this video: "uh oh, we about to have a chick fight up in here!!"

[@jmcfintona999]

word of warning do not try these moves in a club they will ask u to leave, even if u are irish!

[@mlheine0704]

the hard shoes she is wearing are called flexies:) they are very flexible, but theres no wooden thing like in ballet:D

[@FORTNITEMYSTERY]

Do they have tap on them too?

[@princessfluffybottom1933]

*Mrs Steal Your Man.*

[@dashiesbbgurl]

She couldve had him if she really wanted to, lets be real

[@jazzyjewel2577]

What's the go with Michael???? The dark haired girl is totally amazing

[@HakanaXKai]

how do you go on pointe with tap shoes?! OAO;; wow that'a amazazing

[@HAILYN57]

@jmcfintona999 Oh I see! Sorry for paying attention to you Mr troll :)

[@ФросяБурлакова-э7г]

Я не понимаю, зачем Флэтли в более поздних версиях шоу переделал костюмы, надев на девушек прозрачные колготки, укоротив юбки, и нацепив трусы вместо шорт. Если в ранних версиях Lord of the dance и Feet of flames ощущается нежность в танцах, драматизм движения, то последние просто превращают танцоров в артистов кабарэ. Просто опахабили шоу. Не говоря уже о том, что в последних версиях у танцоров не руки, а грабли.

[@pythonprincess2]

She was the temptress trying to seduce him. He was sending a message that he wasn't going to be seduced easily.

[@GravityGrave]

Uhhh nah he totally got seduced, Saoirse just snapped him out of it

[@emmasmith5974]

Still a better love story than Twilight. (Pardon me, but somebody had to say it.)

[@AlexandraEHartman]

Does anyone know what instrument plays the opening of this theme?

[@jmcfintona999]

@HAILYN57 im a great dancer who do u think taught flatley his moves

[@HakanaXKai]

it's a tease XDD lawl

[@xxAileenxx95]

Do u have the next bit to the lord of the dance track? :)

[@jfluter]

You can clearly see that look at 3:16. :)

[@Mrnickstr89]

@notEMY Egyptmau already uploaded them all.

[@feiz01]

Bernadette Flynn,,,, Hmmmmmmm xxx

[@jakeedwards9905]

Does anyone know what instrument this is playing?

[@myhappynest6125]

We’re they married yet?

[@jocelynharris-fx8ho]

If you're asking if Bernadette married Michael,...they were never married. Bernadette married one of the other dancers...his name is Damien O'Kane. Michael married another dancer but I'm not sure if she was part of the Lord of the Dance troupe.

[@mmschod]

:):):)

[@fins5917]

this feels more like ballet. well at least up to 2:00 ( after that it was the choosing ceremony for the lord of the dance)

[@mlheine0704]

shes doing a slip jig which is the most ballet like of all the irish dances lol
