Totally enraptured by the sensual chemistry they have as they glide on the ice. It feels almost like we have stumbled on a private couple moment. You feel embarrass to be encroaching on that moment but u cannot look away because their emotions draw u in deep.

[@beccy8910]

The reason i love these two is because they aren't just skating. They are putting so much passion into the performance and you can see it. You can't look away from them because you can feel the emotions they are portraying. You aren't watching them skating to compete, you are watching an entire performance that makes you forget this is even a competition.

[@Golfballtauchen]

Nobody in this upper class, is "only skating". Everybody feels it so much, thats there life.

i love how the choreography matches the lyrics, i feel like sometimes this is missing in dancing and ice-skating choreo

[@maxmillanmaxmillan]

Virtue and Moir skate so perfectly together. Perfect match.

[@jaydas8976]

They’re my favorite ice skating duo, the way they move on the ice is just is graceful, they also have such great chemistry. You can tell that they’re really close in real life. It’s no surprise that they’ve been skating together for over 20 years, I know they’ve retired but I will always love their performances

[@MoogerFoogin]

He has a head tilt, which is very compelling. I've seen other dancers do this, and when they do this, they are always, for me, absolutely mesmerizing. It's like I'm in a trance and can't look away. I don't know if this is a technique learned, or innate, but for me, it makes me helplessly intoxicated.

[@thebloodybaron7]

Their chemistry is amazing

[@skinkscat]

Trusting someone with so much must create such a beautiful bond

[@ewright2806]

It's not just that, if you listen to their Ted talk, they moved to Michigan together to train as teenagers. There was no family with them, their coaches were cold and unfeeling and all they had was each other for support. They had to be each other's family.

[@msanna4]

Wow 😍😍😍😍😍😍 I love those two. The chemistry they have is unbelievable.

I feel like there are figure skaters, and ice dancers...and they are ice DANCERS. So much creative expression and emotion in their routines!!

that was incredible. I can’t stop watching their performance, I’ve watched it six times over and my jaw still drops every time. Rihanna, in all her god like musical capabilities, should be honored to see such a spectacular representation of her song. This should be her second music video for Stay.

[@africasangdaan5557]

Great performance of Tessa and Scott! They are like angels dancing on ice very light and easy to watch.

Goosebumps and chills. She's oxygen and he's hydrogen, together they are as fluid as water.

Watching both of them skate is such a treat because not only do they have great skating skills but also dancing. Their choreography is so beautiful and i feel like some many skaters don’t have that.

[@hedelisatuzon3221]

Until now I can still experience the thrill and excitement as I am watching these two performers. The beauty of their performance, their elegance, unique way of executing their delicate steps, warm expression and affection will always be remembered. Now that they are already retired,I wish them happiness and more success as they face another chapter in their lives. I hope that one day I will see them again perform as an exhibition to their fans. Thanks for uploading this video and more videos to upload. Watching from the Philippines.

They are skating to maybe the sexiest song Rihanna has ever sung. She is very beautiful, he is very handsome. Their chemistry is unreal. But I imagine that is part of Ice Dancing. Giving the illusion that the couple is in love. They do it too well.

[@fatimabeirao4714]

This perfection of Scott and Tessa's display is typical of Olympic gold winners. Scott and Tessa danced in a very relaxed, elegant and smooth way, which captured the imagination of the audience, and the spectator's gaze is moved from the beginning to the end, enraptured by watching the story of a pair of lovers tell in ice dance. Simply magnificent . Scott and Tessa lived intensely their different moments in music.

Why did this brought tears to my eyes

[@FUSHICHOorKURAYAMI]

I Just Love How Even Happenstance Helps These Two Make A Beautiful Couple Dance. The Wet Spot On Scotts Back Seriously Looks Like Angel Wings When He Gets Up. This Totally Gave Me Vibes From The Movie GHOST. Like The Story Is That Guy Has Died Far Too Soon And Has Now Become A Guardian Angel To The Girl; Which Is Why Hes Just Laying There Chilling Out, While She Looks To Be In A Typical Sleeping Pose. And Only While Shes Asleep Dreaming Is He Able To Come Into Her Dreams And Be With Her Once More As Bitter Sweet As The Reunion Is. The Song Stay Fits This Mini-Story Perfectly. Ive Always Believed Because Of My Grandma's Words That Those We Love And Who Love Us Become Our Guardian Angels In Death. So This Is Definitely One Of My Favorite Routines As To ME It Embodies Not Only The Beauty Of Love Here In The Mortal Plain But Also The Heartfelt Idea That Our Love Continues For Those We Care For Even After Our/Their Body Is Gone. I Watched It On TV But Decided To Watch It Again Now Since I Feel Like Drawing Some Art. And This Routine Is Beautiful Inspiration For Art.💖
