The Passionate Dancing Elders (1st Place) | Final Round | Super 24 2018 ASEAN Open Category Finals

[@aaronowh5904]

People need to know dance is not just about trying to create a fancy choreograph and aesthetic visuals. There's so much more towards dance, it's about the art form of movements, the story/plot behind the item, connecting with the audience through the dance piece. There's so much more to dance, like this item telling us a story or them trying to send out a message about crisis/issues that the world is currently facing. Honestly, both teams did the absolute great job. But TPDE dance piece reached out to me further. I'm able to connect to them, feel their emotions in their dance piece and most importantly able to understand the mesage they are sending out. They are the definition of dance being able to come in different forms.

I have goosebumps! This is so good!!❤️ the choreography and everything is amazing

[@walaoeh_]

Every single Dancer being so committed to the character was what made it SO good...

[@emanney]

Im a dancer myself and I believe dancing isn't just showing about flashy choreography and pleasing outfits, its also about how the dance was portrayed and what the story is trying to say. The storyline made a huge impact and it literally gave me goosbumps. Freshmakerz !

[@C1azzio]

Watched it LIVE 2 times and then watching it again in YT & still goosebumps all around me. What a masterpiece ❤️

[@iamjclz]

I really love this choreography and the story/meaning behind it! Replayed it so many times now~

[@babymawia9485]

it won bc it had a story and it was portrayed well.

[@afrinauniverse1051]

freaking amazing

[@NOWUNITEDUPDATES]

Goodjob ❤️

[@yumifurukawa1249]

The 2nd placer is technically good.. This group has the best storyline..

[@Belx2]

The 1st placer has amazing technique, too. Both teams used different styles so you really can't say whose technique is better.

[@intellimouseFTW]

So a couple of salty pinoys here in the comment section giving toxic comments, whom I believe are salty that A Team lost. I believe A Team did well but if you think dance is all about flashy moves and stunts then I believe you pinoys know nothing about dance.

[@Kanon-cg9ts]

salty but its realtalk that the dance is simple i mean their choreo has a message but A -TEAM deserve 1st place.

[@vhingotzkie1]

They could've performed in a theater arts instead! 😂😂😂 Where's the level of difficulty and uniqueness on this performance? Let me say this again... NOTHING!!! Just a plain and simple jazz/interpretative dance. We may be bitter but A-Team was robbed or the judges including YOU have a very low standard talkin' 'bout performance. 😂😂😂

[@felixwong9887]

John Alvine Cobilla are you an idiot, the difficulty in this performance doesn’t shine in a solo’s act but more so in a team aspect, it’s requires synergy and teamwork. And as for being unique, you can’t tell me this performance doesn’t burn into your mind, it’s something that’s pretty much never been done in S24, their formations take on a new meaning and don’t just resign to the standard S24 formations that you see everyone do. Furthermore, the plot behind the performance is meaningful. Lastly, this performance is just eye catching and pleasing, A-Team definitely did well, and I loved that they are PDE’s counterpart in that their routine was hardhitting but it’s not something that other teams haven’t done before, just at a higher level. And don’t try to school us on standard of performance, I doubt you’re a world class dancer, I bet you just stay at home dancing badly in front of your toilet mirror. The judges invited to evaluate the teams are all recognized and well-known. In conclusion, eat shit and die, then shut your dirty whore mouth. If you don’t know better about dance other than the fact that hard moves=more points then you shouldn’t judge any performances, inclusive of kindergarten dance recitals.

@@vhingotzkie1 you're telling me that double/triple turns are easy? This isn't a hip hop focused choreo. It's more contemp/urban based. There's a difference

its not for competition its like opening program 😂😂😂

[@glennneo9427]

joemark rosales you're just being childish right now... A team was great and passionate dancing elders was great and they both deserve their respective places. Saying that their piece is an opening programme piece is more of an insult to your fav teams than anything else

what is so special and made it 1st? cant see anything... just a simple choreo.

[@nefitiani2028]

John Alvine Cobilla the message

[@justhana9028]

the choreo may be simple, but the storyline and the meaning behind the dance leaves an huge impact

[@k0szzz]

John Alvine Cobilla I don't usually comment on KZbin videos but this is....!! Firstly, if it's simple why dont you try doing any of it! This is probably the most childish way of defending something but I believe this does not need defending! Because dance doesn't have to be explained. It is what it is. It is an artform beyond your movements and choreography! But Secondly, dance is such a personal journey whether for an individual or a team. To take away a team's achievement by labelling it "simple" without even a minute understanding of what it takes to create a piece that touches the heart and that we don't even focus on steps and look beyond how difficult or complicated or for that matter simple the choreography is and just DANCE is the epitome of someone who doesn't appreciate dance as an artform like you. There is no comparison. I know this is a competition but tell that to the 4 esteemed judges that gave them the win and the thousands of audience members and dancers around the world (including myself) who see this more than just being a simple choreography like you did.

[@vhingotzkie1]

@@k0szzz They could've performed in a performing arts theater instead. 😂😂😂 Competition will always be a competition and the level of difficulty must be evident. Now, my questions are... Where is the level of difficulty on this performance? What makes this performance standout from 2nd placer, 3rd placer or other groups? NOTHING!!! Just a plain and simple jazz/interpretative performance. Mind you, I'm the epitome of high-standards that's why I dont appreciate their performance or I must that you have a very low taste of perfomance. Just saying... 😂😂😂

[@vhingotzkie1]

@@k0szzz FLOWERY WORDS DAHLIN' BUT AGAIN... THIS IS JUST A PLAIN AND SIMPLE CHOREO... NOTHING IS SPECIAL. THEIR PERFORMACE IS PERFECT FOR OPENING THE PROGRAM. WELL... JUST TO GIVE CREDITS FOR THEIR TIME AND EFFORT. 😂😂😂

[@Godamnful]

Ordinary interpretative dance nothing special. On my own opinion.

[@glennneo9427]

Godamnful it'd be great if you could imagine even one percent as good as this choreographer can =(

[@Belx2]

Your comment shows your insufficient knowledge in dance. FYI this is not interpretative dance or whatever term non-dancers use. Real appreciates real. Only trained dancers can distinguish technique when they see one.
