All the dancers are as good as Michael Flarley that makes that troup so marvelous. Now i ll say what I think in French, my native language. Aucune troupe de danseurs ne pourra égaler, encore moins surpasser la perfection et l unité de cette troupe, on croirait voir un seul et unique danseur vu l homogénéité.

I'm an '02 child, and my parents had this performance on DVD. I was such a huge fan and always tried to dance along. I have kinda forgotten about it for the last maybe 7 years and re-discovered it about two months ago. I really can't tell you how that felt. Nostalgic and a little like home was one part. But I was soo blown away by the dancing and the ambiance that came with it. It's so magical and I'll love it forever

[@annashum9105]

My mother took me to see this around 13 years ago when I was somewhere around 14 years old. At the time, being a teenager, I never wanted to go to the shows my mom wanted to "drag" me to because I thought it was stupid. She would take me to concerts, musicals, plays, etc. Everytime, I would dread going but afterwards, I would come out absolutely amazed by what I just saw. This was one of those shows. After I saw this performance, I was speechless. It is still to this day the most powerful, beautiful, amazing show I have ever seen. Especially this finale part. The music alone was so powerful that it gets everyone out of their seats cheering for just one more dance. Now that I'm older, I am so grateful for my mom taking me to see all these amazing performances. I've been looking every year since then to see if Lord Of The Dance will be back in Chicago but I haven't seen anything. I think they only perform mostly in Europe now. I am so thankful that I got a chance to see this in person.

He is enormously talented, but also enormously arrogant. Great fun to watch though.

[@mihaelapestritu4259]

I've heard about the guy being arrogant over and over through the years. Since I don't personally know the man, I couldn't tell whether that's true or not. But if it is...I must say, that arrogance did him worlds of good on stage. Because, apart from being a fantastic dancer - which undoubtedly he is, but so are many others - the thing to distinguish him more than anything, his allure, was exactly that : his imposing stage presence, head always up high, eyes shining with pride and the "I'm The King and The Lord" atitude. Everything else, even his technique and stamina, somebody else might come to reach one day. The new guy is pretty good, actually. Not Flately good, but good. However, I'm having a hard time imagining somebody will ever equal his atitude, and the way he knew how to sell it, lol. For me, he's a giant in his line of work, regardless of whhat he may be like in his real life. I always make sure to never enter in the kitchen of my favourite restaurant, you know.

[@mihaelapestritu4259]

@@CB394 That is exactly what I called it, "imposing stage presence". I have no knowledge of his "arrogance", nor lack of it, for that matter. He's not somebody I personally know, so I wouldn't dream of passing judgement on anyone, based on media rants. As for the article posted above in these comments, I went through it quickly, and I must say, the so called "arrogance" sounds to me more like finally an artist knew what he wants done, how to get it done, and what it's worth. So instead of letting himself milked dry by the big sharks, he decided to do it himself, for himself, his dancers and his public. Bet that stepped on more than a few toes, eh? Let's face it, a big league manager boasting about "buying him a 10000 $ pair of shoes" is...cringy, at best. I can't imagine it was a birthday present, but rather an investment. The guy knew well that those 10.000 $ shoes on THOSE feet, would come back to him as millions, later. Who is he kidding?

[@danceoutnow]

As a former dancer in multiple disciplines, I can vouch that when the crowd amps up, it doesn't matter if your routine was 10 minutes or 4 hours. You may be tired and sore, but it all falls away as your own love for your craft mingles with the audience's ovation and the joy you brought them. Yes, this troop did a piece of the finale 3 extra times. And I guarantee you its a moment all of them carry with reverence and a smile to this day. Because when the show run is over, these are the moments you look back on and think "wow, can't believe I was part of something like that!"

[@abliaaneksi3261]

Exactly what I thought. He seems exhausted as all the dancers must be, but when you see the crowd like that, all up with a big ovation, when you finally see where all this hard work have brought you and how people enjoy it so much, you can't just say "thanks, bye!", you have to do it again.

Its nice to see how many people envy Michael Flatley for his personal success. All this people should know that he was the person that creates Riverdance 1994 as intermediate show during the Eurovision Song Contest. Without him nobody of this talented tap dancers (worldchampions) would have work since over 20 years. It was Michael Flatley that bring Irish tap in the world, so modern and powerful to fill worldtours, city halls and stadiums. Lord of the Dance is his personal show that he creates after left Riverdance. After heart problems he comes 2011 back on stage because milliones of fans wants to see the only and unique "Lord" of Dance. On this show 1996 in Dublin was Michael Flatley around 40 years old. I would like to see the people that critism him if they can dance like him. Last details, he is still record holder with 35 steps per second ;-).

[@entropylackthereforeofmmm6119]

It was Bill whelan who came up with the goods

[@michaelkovalenko1429]

I've seen that at Radio City. So many years later I can't get enough it. Michael Flatley's energy and skills are unbelievable.

[@nicolaholland6913]

I've seen this more times than I can count, and I STILL get goosebumps!

[@user-le9ji7ux6x]

Лучшего ТАНЦОРА я не видела!!! Он не танцует, а словно летает по сцене!!! ТАКАЯ ЛЁГКОСТЬ В ДВИЖЕНИЯХ!!! БРАВО!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@JohnAberle]

I'm pretty sure that Michael Flatley's Lord of the Dance and Feet of Flame performances were where I first became aware that I love Celtic dancing. This "Michael Flatley - Lord of the dance finale" was an excellent segment of Michael at his top. I was quite fascinated at his ability to do those high, strutting steps. They were amazing steps powered by a strong ego and incredible dancing ability. Thank you, David Roth, for posting this.

[@JohnAberle]

+quosmo1, thanks for commenting. Still, take pity on me. I'm from another generation that doesn't fully catch all of the abbreviations yet. What did "'david rAth' btw" mean?

[@JohnAberle]

Thank you, *****, for catching that mistake. I hope David Rath will accept my apology. I'm delighted that you took the time to let me know. Also, thank you for explaining what "btw" stands for. I honestly thought it was "back to work," which didn't make sense here. But then I remember for years telling my friends that I was the "dedicated driver" when we went out together. I finally learned the term was really "designated driver." But as a teetotaler, the first term was applicable even if wrong.

[@Flightstar]

+John Aberle Don't forget, as well as a strong ego, above all, Flatley had immense passion for what he was doing. that was clearly evident on his face. He had that shit eating grin, from ear to ear. He was in a zone to where he belonged. Unfortunately not many of us, will never experience the intense joy of doing what we were meant.

[@JohnAberle]

videoclipits, good observation - I agree with you about Michael's passion. He definitely had passion and incredible skill or I wouldn't have watched him. He was a marvelous performer. Dorothy Aberle and I saw Lord of the Dance in Las Vegas over ten years ago. The male lead dancing Michael's role just didn't have the same confidence and charisma. So it was a really good show, just not awesome. We still enjoyed it despite the minor let down.

[@jukingeo]

+videoclipits I remember this performance clearly and he just kept going and going at the end and the people just ate it all up. After seeing this, I wanted to take my mom to see Lord Of The Dance when the troupe came around, but then learned that Michael Flatley was no longer with the troupe. So sadly I never saw them live. BUT I did have a surprise for my mom when I got married as I hired an Irish Dance troupe for my wedding :). No it wasn't a professional troupe as I hired them from a local dance studio, but they did an excellent job and I got to see my live Riverdance show.

[@markusholzknecht2028]

this sents out so much energy, if i watch it i feel energetic and awaken, its wonderfull

[@shaebarnes9024]

Still great so many years later gets my feet tapping and for some reason tears in my eyes

[@cecimartinez1777]

When u r the choreographer and still perform this AMAZING WORK OF ART!!!!I HAVE NO WORDS!!!!🥰🥰🥰❤❤❤

[@thetruth9746]

I remember watching this way back in the day on PBS

[@kez9183]

How anyone can give this a dislike is beyond me. I loved this when it came out and I still love it as much. Wish I could dance like that, but maybe that's because of my Irish blood, as my grandmother was Irish. Nan would have loved this. Bloody fantastic and never ceases to mesmerise me!

[@SarcasmOpenWorld]

Its chandler who hates it

[@irmar]

I think the dislike is for the low quality of the video. Fuzzy and not doing justice to the show.

[@user-dh8hu1jz3g]

I saw one of his first shows in Dublin in 98/99 if I'm right...He is the king of Irish dance such an experience..

[@RibbitBibbit]

That is not true because I AM the king of Irish dance the leprechauns told me so

[@ShatnerLover]

I love this show so much

[@Verattic]

The nostalgic feeling i got from this was amazing!

[@edaj1990]

Still one of my favorite shows I've seen in Vegas!

[@katrijnsmet8800]

Had the chance to see it with michael flatley. There is no one who can replace him and his energy.

[@ShirleyRJones]

Thank u Michael to you and all your dancers over the years.

[@rjunuh4084]

Quite amazing. I watched this as a young lad, but I don’t think you realise how difficult this is to perform and to keep that performance level up when your knackered!!! Shows true showmanship the great Michael Flatley bravo sir.👏

[@yousraf.8617]

I'm here on the behalf of Chandler Bing to see how his legs flail about as if independent of his body🙈

[@lucasclark2671]

You seems caring and nice,you will be fun to be with,can I have your email address or Whatsapp number?so we can talk more about ourselves?

[@grownwoman777]

Two Michaels in the world whose dance skills will never be replaced - Michael Jackson my first love and Michael Flatley my second love🥰

[@Myrddin1955]

Has to be one of the best shows ever in the history of entertainment!

[@TheMadCubist]

Chandler brought me here.

[@elishachua5008]

I think 50% of us was brought by Chandler here.

[@saburex2]

Ashlie Cee culture brought me here... who's chandler?:))

[@XivioOfTheGreen]

And Chandler was right. His legs DO flail about as if independent from his body.

[@elishachua5008]

saburex2 Chandler Bing, the Chan-Chan man! From Friends. :)

[@FrankieHiltz]

That's exactly why I'm here o.o Totally blows my mind that I saw this comment as one of the top comments o.o That's awesome o.o

[@munherpes]

Jesus christ what a rush they've must've felt from that audience

[@sportssciotaku7149]

Riverdance is entertaining and mostly traditional. LotD has so much energy and is showcasing what is possible in Irish dance and takes it to a whole new level.

[@dtaylor4552]

His energy, drive, and passion are incredible. I wish I had just a droplet of sweat of his energy. He feeds off the audience. Clearly a man doing what he was put on Earth to do. Aaahmazing.

[@paulboynton8301]

Fabulous performance
