No matter who Michael puts out front in the dance, I still see him in almost every move. I love that he is such a great artist and for what he has created. But, I even admire his more as well rounded human being who knows from where his blessings truly come from. I just enjoy listening to him talk, and the moment where he reveals another great aspect of his life. When the producers and money men that were backing River Dance tried to destroy him, he came back stronger and the world was and is better for it. Thank you Michael Flatley, for all the joy you have given me.
This guy took traditional Irish dance to another level by including the passion of Spanish flamenco and his gestures as well as part of his clothing, he gave it more elegance and spectacularity.
I adore this guy !!! He is so .... He knows to stay "simple" then HE IS THE KING OF IRISH DANCE !!! It's wonderful...And a wonderful choregrapher and creater of spectacles !!! It's unbelievable...
Someone once told me "he is a show-off", I just answered him "do what he does and did, then you can show off as wel" Of course on stage he is having his pride, his fun, ... but that's what we love about it, passionate people
Dear Michael Flately; thanks for all your passion and hard work. Genius of the dance. May you and your son and wife have a wonderful life; keep together. Be Well.
Such a sweet and inspirational man. I could listen for hours to him! He is always leaving me with a better, and uplifted feeling ! And so do his dancers ! The energy, the Joy & passion for this show.. it's not really to put it in words. You just have to see and feel it Live 💖💖💖 Thank you so much for posting! Great interview 👍
Jackie Burkey. He admits that fame and fortune went to his head for awhile as he was a young man at the time. But, as it does for all of us, we become humbled with time. He knows that he is talented and has changed the world of Irish dancing. He has a family now and knows how fortunate he truly is.
The first time I watched the Cd Lord of the Dance I thought it could not have such kind of spectacular dance, so fast, so harmonious... He stole my heart... all of the team!!!
unbelieveble, I was in Amsterdam in the on the day that Pim fortuyn was murded...that day we were 19 years married and a precent for my husband...great memory's....thank you for everything Michael Flatley and dansers XX
Dat zijn mooie herinneringen hè 💕 gaan nooit meer weg ☺️ ik ga ( als alles goed blijft gaan) naar Rotterdam dit jaar. Samen met m'n dochter 😊 haar 1 e keer. Ik heb de show al eerder gezien..can't wait!
It's strange to see someone else doing the main part in 'Warlords' instead of Michael. One of my fav parts of the shows all time. But, these young men are also fantastic. I love Michael, what an amazing human being. Great personality. And still damn pretty hot!
I'm of Irish heritage and his explanation of so much passion, anger then tears sums up who I am LOL... I've seen Riverdance and it was absolutely brilliant and mind blowing .. very honoured to have had the chance to see this amazing and powerful dancing.
"Lord Of The Dance" should become a major film by Matthew Vaughn based on Michael Flatley's life from humble beginnings being born to Irish parents growing up in Chicago to the glittering and successful life long career and the smash hit show of the 1990s and the part he played in bringing 1997 show to life in the film titled "Lord Of The Dance : The Untold Story".

Want to know if Michael ever danced while in pain? As he talks, he told of damage dancing did to legs and back, so truly sorry this had to happen. But no one can ever take his place with the charisma he had. That was a big part of what made me come back to see more! The Chieftain’s were/are great. I did not know they worked with you. I first heard of them while Sissel Kyrkjebø from Norway sang with this group. And I’m proud to say my grandma was right off the boat from Ireland! Glad to see you again, Michael Flatley!❤️ 11/14/20
Mickael Flatley un artiste magique phénoménal .On aimerait arrêter le temps pour le voir indéfiniment .Je rêvais de le voir sur scène mais quand je suis allée voir un de ces spectacles il n'y était pas .Un regret de ma vie .Kel homme fantastique .Merci pou tout ❤❤😻😻😻😻😻😻😻👍Domy
I have just seen this, what this man single handed did for Ireland was take us from a Country that was famous for Guinness and the green fields, to world prominence, that is now renowned for its culture, heritage and dancing that has never been surpassed. He is truly a humble gentleman deserving of all that is good in this world.
Boy he definitely got wealthy from that which he absolutely earned I mean I'm surprised he just not did not die from exhaustion or have a heart attack very strong-minded man physically mentally and every way in his Manor Mansion whatever oh is breathtakingly beautiful he just so so much earned it all he worked hard for that and may his retirement days be filled with nothing but happiness and joy and for him to enjoy that beautiful home with his family and his son God bless
Quelle richesse et quelle vie trépidante tous ces spectacles ! Vous avez l 'air ému .Vous pouvez l'être et surtout très fier de tout ce que vous avez accompli ! Un grand Monsieur Mickael Flattey ?Un bonheur ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Domy
I've been hooked on this tradition for almost 30 years now & I'm a middle aged Black man from Philadelphia. So I definitely believe that it is a phenomenon
MR FLATLEY SIGH...WHERE DO I BEGIN??! YOUR LEGACY WILL LIVE ON ,THOSE WHO TRY TO "FILL YOUR SHOES"HAVE ALOT TO LEARN ...ITS NOT ONLY CHOREOGRAPHY, BUT STAGE PRESENCE CHARISMA, CONFIDENCE &ATTITUDE...
I don't know for sure the origins of the the style of Irish dance but my theory is so it can be done in small spaces, like a kitchen or pub. Under the British oppression most ordinary Irish people lived in small dwellings, we didn't have access to assembly rooms the like, but would have celebrations and get togethers neighbours houses and such
I saw a few live shows, and everytime it starts i get completely overwhelmed, totaly emotional. I have since 1995 Kerry Blue Terriers, an other Irish Pride, and for grooming it i always say they have to have a Michael Flatley behind. Look for a picture of the breed, you will see what i mean ;-)
I'm not sure what year it was but my work had a Christmas party and one of my co worker's won 6 tickets for Riverdance Loved it my heart ❤️ was racing.
Il a même aujourd'hui un charme fou .Longue vie et bcp de bonheur Mr Mickael Flattey ! Une admiration sans borne pour un tel talent des spectacles à couper le souffle .Je vous adore 😻😻😻😻😻😻😻 Domy
Il est toujours aussi 💕 mais dieu que cela doit être dur pour lui de regarder des images de lui étant jeune si beau si talentueux plus dur pour des artistes que pour nous ?
Michael has a very attractive manner and he is very well spoken with an exceptionally attractive voice and manner of speaking. This has certainly been his winning card making business relations. He is not the introverted artist.that many artistically talented people are. He has been very lucky with his genetics and his upbringing and the environmental factors in it.
I'm in the middle of working on a watercolor painting and decided to watch this video to take a break, I knew once I did it was going to zone me out watching them dance- their legs are one big blue! 🤣😄💗🕺
The story of the origin of the Irish Dance was that the school children loved to dance but weren't allowed. So they learned to dance straight and stiff as so when the School Master walked by the window he couldn't tell that the kids were dancing. That's the story that I heard on Lawrence Welk Show
YES. HIS LAST NAME IS. FLATLEY BUT THOSE LEGS OF HIS NEVER WAS HE. WILL ALWAYS DANCE INTO OUR HEARTS FOREVER AND EVER GOD BLESS HIM A. SWEET LOVING MAN ❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😂❤❤😅❤ ❤❤😂😂❤❤😂😅😅❤😂❤

D Stew I think it’s partly down to his accent, and not to do with him deliberately being unpleasant. Some accents flow freely, like Spanish or Italian, some are more clipped sounding.
Очень люблю творчество Майкла.К сожалению постарел,располнел.Я очень люблю творчество нашего великого танцора Цискаридзе,он также постарел и располнел.
Mary Magdalene--It's a Dutch show. In Europe, it is common for people to speak four languages in addition to their own. Flatley, being raised in the USA, has American English as his first language; he had to LEARN Gaelic/Irish as an adult. When the host is addressing the television audience, he is speaking Dutch. When he or any of the panel is speaking directly to Michael, they are speaking English with Dutch subtitles on the screen. That isn't rude at all.
From what I can see, Michael has an earphone in his right ear which they use for guests who are not speaking Dutch. Sometimes they use it in talkshows for translation.I think the part which is in Dutch/Flemish language is getting translated in his ear, so he can understand and join the conversation. And when they are talking directly to Michael, they are speaking English. To me It seems not rude at all. It is a Belgian talkshow with Dutch/Flemish spoken language, so it seems logical to me the main language in this program is Dutch/Flemish for the viewers of the program. It hasn’t affected the conversation in my opinion. I have the impression that Michael was able to follow the Dutch part of the conversation very well.
@@woolncathairs really! Who's to say they didn't? He probably had an ear piece in with a running commentary on what was being spoken. They do that in most European countries when having foreign guests. Don't you people know anything? How do you think Eurovision works for Christ sake!!
Slim? You mean healthy ? ☺️ He is still slim I think 😉 I think he didn't listen to his body really well. As a lover of dance and show, I totally get it that he kept dancing, kept going. As a show dancer, you life for the sensation ( and ofcourse he got money) but that positive feeling, that energy from the audience, that pushed him so hard. He lives for this show. His baby 💖 😊
