Rapper FIRST time REACTION to Garth Brooks - The Dance! OH MY...

[@BlackPegasusRaps]

I was tricked! I’m told this isn’t Garth Brooks, it’s a cover 😑 LAME. So I looked up Garth and he has NO music videos on YT!!! That’s insane. Doesn’t he have any music videos?? I’ve seen some live performances on YT but that’s it. Oh well, I tried y’all 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@757optim]

He's Don Henley-ish - but I don't think he's lip synching. Yet.

[@jess_Bond]

Kelly Clarkson does a very good cover for him live

[@1972adamw]

look for his LIVE concert versions of this song...you won't be disappointed

[@jeffewart4381]

He is notoriously tight with his I.P.. Nobody gets to watch Garth Brooks for free

[@Shiby23]

Garth Brooks is the 100% don't react person. He's like Lars from metallica when people wanted to download their songs. He's got amazing songs so you could post a link and we can listen with you but he and his group don't frick with copywrite BS. Southern Mofo can't spit out the Tobacco from 30 years ago and let people enjoy his great music. Just because of this i'm'a toss out songs. "Callin Batonrouge" "thunder Rolls"........ My favorite that always makes me cry, Garth Brooks - The River. A dream is like a vessel

[@JoshJohnson-jo5fg]

"If Tomorrow Never Comes" is another classic that leaves you thinking about life and those you love...

[@GloriaYoung-qo1ts]

I had this played at my husband’s funeral because he loved it and it spoke to me.

[@Maggimae2367]

You really are my favorite. You get it. You don’t get distracted by stupid videos, you don’t decide you don’t like a song before you’ve heard it and you understand when a song is deep and why. You are great

[@IceQen1]

Unanswered prayers is another great Garth song❤

And philosophically along the very same lines.

Garth Brooks "Unanswered Prayers" is another really good one find an older live preformance or official music video to hear Garth. BTW Garth sounds just as Beautiful or Better than the Cover. ❤

[@janebarnett865]

My husband died of cancer 13 years ago. This was one of the songs played at his funeral. Still has such as special meaning.

Can't listen to this one with you BP this was my daughter's favorite song and it was played at her funeral in 2006

It took me a few minutes to decide if I can watch this one. This is a very special song to me and tears me up. Nice reaction.

[@karlweir3198]

Thunder rolls was always my favorite ❤

[@scottluvisi9941]

When doing Garth, you should always do live Garth. Friends in Low Places, Thunder Rolls, The River.

[@ofacetious1288]

Ohh The River would be a good one ❤

[@ChanelStuff]

Not on this song tho. The others I agree with

[@secolerice]

A little while, after this song came out, a friend of ours who was a rodeo cowboy was killed in a head-on collision by a distracted driver. He was 29. This song was played at his funeral. We were all Garth fans then and we still are. Many things have happened since, so this song has so many meanings.

[@AngB517]

Lane Frost's last ride is in the official video. I'm hoping the links stay in the reply I made on his pinned comment.

[@OddBall1958]

At the opening of the music video, Brooks explains that the song is written with a double meaning - both as a love song about the end of a passionate relationship, and a story of someone dying because of something he believes in, after a moment of glory. The video shows several American icons and examples of people who died for a dream.

[@dcbs8691]

I worked a Garth concert back in the early 90s. He puts on a fantastic show. What I remember most was there was a young boy, maybe 4 or 5 years old, dressed like a mini Garth. Cowboy boots, bluejeans, buttondown shirt, and his cowboy hat. Absolutely adorable. Garth pulled him up on stage and sang to him and then gave him his acoustic guitar. That little boy had the time of his life that night. It was so sweet.

[@FollowingGhost]

My Dad was on tour with him for 13 months back in the 90s. He was one of the truck drivers. He didn't want to go at first, then once he was he loved it.

[@VilomahMom]

THIS song brings me to tears every time. My two best friends in the world got married right out of high school. We remained close all these years through their ups and downs. They nearly divorced but didn't and they gave me the credit for that. But it was really their love that kept them together. OMG we used to all talk and plan our future golden years of traveling and mischief. Then he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer when he was 57 years old. Our dreams shattered. He fought like a bear to have more time. I lived in a different state when his time began winding down. I had promised him that I would be there to say goodbye and help her anyway I could. When I got the call I went immediately. I arrived he was laying in a hospital bed set up in their family room right next to their big screen TV which was playing music videos. He was awake, in pain, bright yellow from jaundice, and a shell of the big man I'd known since I was a kid. His voice was so weak when he said "Thank you." She took me out to the screen porch to talk. She said he had been refusing medication when he needed it and she hoped I'd talk him in to taking it. Their daughter came out and said "Dad wants you" to her. We went back in shocked to see that he was sitting up on the side of the bed. She rushed to him trying to get him to lay down. Suddenly his voice sounded normal and he said "No, Help me stand up." So she did. He leaned against her and wrapped his arms around her and started swaying slightly side to side. Mind you he was 6ft 3in and She was barely 5ft and we all thought he was going to fall over on her. She kept saying "You're going to fall." He whispered "No" and held on tight. I walked up behind her in case she needed help. I noticed THIS song playing on the TV. I busted down crying realizing he was having one last dance with her. I said "He's dancing with you hon. Listen to the song." He stayed on his feet through the rest of the song softly swaying with the love of his life. When the song finished, we helped him back to bed. He whispered "I think I need that medicine now." She gave it and then curled up next to him in the bed. I'm sitting here crying remembering what a precious final gift he gave to her. He passed the next morning. We were both with him. They had been married for over 40 years. Theirs was a type of marriage that everyone should strive for. One where you f*** up you owned it without blame and excuse, and apologize not with just words, but with deeds. One where you forgave and you didn't bring it up again. One where both learns and grows. One where you put one another first, before ANYONE else but God. I was immensely blessed to have been a part of their lives and called family all of these years. I lost my son, and only child, 2 years ago. If it weren't for my "family" I probably wouldn't be writing this now. I'm moving to be closer to her and hope we can rekindle our dreams of travel. I know her Chris and my Tony would have wanted that for us.

[@heather2493]

Oh honey… you made me cry. I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost my beautiful husband to cancer also, after over 20 years, and I am still shattered…. Lowkey I’m still pissed at God for taking him 😢

[@QueenCee-1966]

This song was played at my daughter’s funeral. She was only 17. This song perfectly illustrates the feelings I’ve had and I’m very grateful to Garth Brooks for writing it.

Wow, how very sorry I am for you that you lost your daughter at such a young age. May God comfort you.

This song was my pick to play at my Dad's funeral. Dad always said that as much pain as he had went through in his life (including 2 divorces) he knew that if he had changed anything, he wouldnt have had the life he had. I have lived my life by the same values. i cry like a baby everytime i hear this song, since that day,

[@yeehaw6737]

I’m glad people other than me understand this. He’s one of the top selling male country singers of all time. A legend and his songs are a book of life. I have the entire box set of his music. Epic

[@braybrannan-saine6407]

Just wait till you see the actual music video and hear him. Life changing song! It’s Garth’s favorite song of them all!!! I’ve seen him sing it live, awe inspiring.

[@MISTERBABAD00K]

This song hits me hard every time. My parents split up when I was 10. a few years later, my sister had her sweet 16. My mom and dad shared a dance to this song at her party. I knew from a the moment they separated they would never be together again, but this song cemented in my mind that, regardless of the years of pain they had, they wouldn't have changed it.

[@rickschandler9541]

BP, we played this song at my 11 days old son's funeral in 1992. When you said bittersweet, you were correct. It helped with our healing as time went by. Love this song even today 32 years later.

[@ehecken]

The passing of a loved one ❣️❣️❣️❣️😢

[@Big_Trev]

Garth is kinda infamous for his songs being harder to find online than most artists, and because of that, this is actually a cover. This song in particular is even harder to find Garth’s version than most of his other songs

[@Asylumonestudios]

So, to add some context to the song, on a CMT interview, Garth Brooks was asked who the song was about. He said that it was for everyone who had passed. Loved ones, all the famous singers. He went on to explain that “The Dance” was metaphorical. It is referring to all the time that we did get to have them with us and all the memories made from that time.

[@timlloyd1454]

This is a cover song. When Garth comes to town he has to add on so many more concert’s as he fills the area every night. One time he added 11 shows due to the massive demand to see him. Love his music and love him as a man. He stopped his huge career to raise his 3 daughters and then came back and is just as famous and in demand. You can’t go wrong with him. Love your reactions, thanks for sharing.

His official video for this song was great it had MLK AND JFK it was wonderful. My husband and I of 32 years broke up when we had been dating for 4 years.
