Opening Number - Hanging On (Mia Michaels Choreography) - SYTYCD 9

[@djayejournay1882]

Still gorgeous after all these years.

[@hellokittygirl15]

Mia Michaels is a sheer genius - I have never disliked any of her routines and this one is beautiful. I find myself watching it repeatedly because it draws you in! This song by Active Child is the perfect match to that routine. Active Child is now on my music playlist as well thanks to Mia. ❤❤❤

Seeing the oldest comment is 10 years old while it feels fresh in my brain is insane. Still one of my favorite pieces

[@Lena-ff5hr]

UGH I REALLY LOVE THIS, IT GETS ME ON THE FEELINGS EVERY TIME I SEE IT

[@pnolin79]

my favorite opening number to date! This just calls to me like no other routine has. It made me cry, I felt empty, I felt longing, I felt lust, and heartache. Just one of those routines I go back and watch for the sheer beauty that it is.

[@LizaBellaPink]

Still watching in 2017. Epic routine

[@alonda8209]

Here 2022 still watching

[@capdance17]

This was beautiful....

[@averyjohnson1777]

ps for anyone who still hasn't figured it out its the white sea remix of hanging on by active child...the original came out like half a century ago but Ellie Goulding ruined it by bringing "Tinie Tempah" into her version. there are tons of remixes but Active Childs is the best and the original. Ellie DID NOT write this song, stolen from Active Child, and his version is much better..especially after a joint or two.

[@Lena-ff5hr]

Ellie Goulding made me hate her with "her version" of this song :'v even more xd

[@ezfaze4935]

Ellie Goulding didn’t steal it. It’s a cover and she has a whole song with Active Child.

[@taylordouthit3397]

Tysm for this comment I was trying to figure out why it didn’t sound like the original active child version

[@ololadeakinrinade2969]

When i see this dance routine, It always reminds me of Daniel Gillies from The originals.

[@Tootell.]

I need to do this for school... please tell me what are the Choreographic devices in this??

[@cazMUTT]

beautiful mia, absolute beautiful

[@classychicforever]

I don't know why, but when I see this dance, I think of 50 shades of grey!haha.The dance is good though!

[@cassidybarker167]

[@likemiley77]
