  • Bless this truth. Bless it.

  • Wow, I'm a bogan (redneck) from Oz who stumbled upon this video. Have never before been close to understanding dance as art. Never got it. That has changed me.

  • I'm a sobbing mess every time he dances. no dancer has ever made me cry so much. 

  • I know I would get amazing choreography out from working with him! hands down.

  • Amazing. I felt every movement deep in my heart - it is an honor to watch you dance, Billy :)

  • Billy bell went to my school and choreographs woohoo!!! he is amazing

  • Billy Bell you are a genius....my dream right now is being able to watch you on 30th of december in New York but unfortunately for an albanian girl living in Italy that's quite impossible..... Please come to Italy with your Lunge Dance Company....pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­e

  • @soleluna404 I meant 30th of september............

  • one word to describe this dance and dancer -insane- who ever doesn't like this video must have been watching something completely different as this is completely insane in the best way possible...wow <3

  • mastermind.

  • This made me tear up, and I hardly EVER tear up

  • What a talent! It 's just beautiful to watch. He's brilliant.

  • Billy Bell is an extraordinary dancer and I loved him on SYTYCD but felt some of the chorographers let him down by not utilizing his abilites enough. Some did, but a couple of other ones really blew a great opportunity in working with him.

  • @tweeterpie1 I think Billy is amazing, but his weakness was partnering. Actually, I should specify partnering with girls. He was amazing with Ade. I think he is genius, but SYTYCD was not the platform for him.

  • there are times when i can't tell his arms from his legs.

  • there are times where i can't tell his hands from his feet.

  • watching Billy‘s performance just like watching sunrise, breathtaking

  • beautiful

  • WOW!!!!!!! :O you are amazingly talented i enjoyed watching this video!

  • ahhhhhhhhhh! BRILLIANT!

  • i dont understand what is it about. sumwan pls tell me.

  • I see some little signs of Mia's choreography. Wonderful how people influence one another when they get together.

  • @ThePilowcase I think this is solely and genuinely art of Billy Bell's.

    He performed this piece before he worked with Mia Michaels.

    It proves that he is very much inspirational for choreographers, too.

    God sent him to us.

  • I've watched this about 5 times now, It is so powerful.

  • This is the work of a genius.

    Hope you are still continuing with your Juilliard scholarship. Don't give it up.

    You are destined for greater things.

  • Does anyone know the title/artist of the background music?

  • @kyouenna

    Dinah Washington & Max Richter-This bitter earth - On the nature of daylight

  • @lemianbb thanks for responding! =)

  • BRILLIANCE.

  • really impressive o.0

  • he is legitimately amazing.

    jon m chu, are you watching this? put him on the lxd.

  • Billy, you are INCREDIBLY!! NEVER STOP DANCING! You inspire SO many, including me!

  • I so admire you, you're one of the dancers that has inspired me to continue dancing, you're just wonderful and I hope you keep documenting your dances and choreography because you're just pure inspiration for dancers all over the world.

  • awesome

  • The best period ~ go go go ~ Billy

  • beautiful

  • O.O

    It just got real. You have my heart Billy.

  • this looks like an improv because of some walking and freeze in some movement but his movements are very engaging. he makes you want to watch more and go with him in this entire piece. looks very simple but really very hard to do. very nice piece

  • I've been involved with dancing for thirty (30) years, and first time I saw what this guy could cram as far as character development and storyline into SYTYCD's precious 120 seconds I knew he was not only a technically proficient classically-trained dancer, but also a major creator. Finally someone who has the physical ability of a world-class interpreter and the mind of a choreographer/storyteller.

  • its like he is drowning wow man u make me wanna be a better dancer

  • BILLY! I JUST LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • just...beautiful. 

  • please, what's this music song ? this is so beautiful, Billy is perfect...

  • Dancing like this is

    a sad joy , a soft sadness

    a breathing of beauty over suffering

    a fire of silences

    a mysterious and supple wave of hidden tears

    a timorous love full of hope

    an unknowable nature

    dancing like this...

  • billy bell you are the best dancer i've ever seen in my life.

  • this is just pure gift. i would give anything to dance like that

  • ..oh my..tears streaming....exquisite..xx j

  • He hasn't failed to leave me in awe.

    I'm sorry, but he must be very close to being double-jointed, if not actually double-jointed.

  • We need more videos of you dancing, Billy. Please keep them coming.

  • @GirlFromIL2 I ditto this-lol. I wish I could buy a video of the whole May show. I know selling video is probably hard because of music rights but that doesn't change my wishes.

  • That was one of the best pieces of dance I've ever seen. I'm sorry that this talent did not come across on the show. I see you in a different light now. Wow! Amazing.

  • You are God's gift to the dance world. Seriously.

  • when it comes to sytycd, it's a shame that so many people are focused on how cute someone is or how many flips and tricks they can do. billy is more than that, he'll make it farther than ANY of the dancers here and this dance is pure beauty all of his dancing is. all his dances are so beyond people his age, and he's truly an artist.

    i love you so much billy<3

  • Billy, this performance reaches into my very soul and tugs at those places buried deep within. You are truly gifted. I miss watching you dance weekly. Of all the dancers on SYTYCD, you were the one who allowed me to move through them.  I am in a wheelchair and, though I can walk a bit, I cannot dance. Thank you, my dear boy, for giving my worn out body wings to fly. Blessings to you. Sally

  • tears in my eyes. you are brilliance. 

  • Billy you are a true artiste! Favorite certainly does not mean best/brilliant...you are all that. YOu make my heart smile!

  • We often throw around the word brilliance like any other, forgetting what it truly means. You represent the essence of true brilliance without a doubt. Inspiring and captivating.

  • Billy Bell ... amazing ... as always.

  • billy bell is the best dancer of our generation. period. 

  • omg its billy "freakin" bell(: and hes EPIC <3

  • omg its billy "freakin" bell(: and hes EPIC

  • Wow- Billy, this is absolutely breathtaking. in my opinion, your best dancing. this piece was so moving and one of the most beautiful dances I've ever seen. the choreography, the mix of the music, the actual dancing was amazing. it so easily expresses the fear of being in a plane. you should be so proud of this- thankyou. :)

  • 4:09 through like 4:15 shouldn't even be humanly possible.

  • OMG. The emotion. The dancing. The artistry. The sheer HUMANITY of it. Thank you for knowing who you are, Billy, and thank you for the gift that is you!

  • Woah o.O

    That was amazing. It was... just amazing.

    I've watched it through so many times now, but I don't even think I'm truly getting many of the small, but so important and profound details of your movements... This piece is beautiful. Your interpretation is beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing this with us!

  • this is so profound.

  • WTF. (like in a good way.)

  • How did you get the audio of the airplane safety instructions? I love the song.

    Oh and 1:48 is gorgeous.

  • i love billy bell ♥

  • I was sitting in the sixth row watching this and could not believe what I was seeing. If I recall correctly, this piece wasn't listed in the program. We came out of intermission and he performed this. What he does at 4:00 in just made my heart leap into my throat. My hands went to my mouth in awe. His interpretations are inspiration and entirely, entirely human, to the very core.

  • Thanks Billy, for being you!  :P

  • THIS is exactly why Billy Bell is my fave dancer of sytycd7!! he should've won!dont care what anyone else friggin says!

  • Billy, you really are something amazing

  • very powerful--you have something to say through your art...and I'm listening

  • Billy...your talent is just beyond comprehension! I enjoyed every second you had on SYTYCD! How anyone could not understand why you didn't put your body at risk when you were hurt is beyond me! Thank you for being you!

  • billy bell, you are dance.

  • Billy, thank you for being who you are..........

  • Oh my god I never comment on Youtube videos but...you are brilliant, Billy Bell. LOVE the use of stillness at 3:05 and 4:00. Just....love.

    And I like the irony that you got the chance to dance brilliantly to this song yet again on SYTYCD.

  • I can't possibly love Billy Bell any more.... It's just not possible...

  • That was so beautiful! Absolutely breathtaking!

  • He is just the boy born to dance...

  • There are no words for your brilliance Billy. When you dance, I forget to breathe.

  • Billy Bell you are breathtaking! Can not wait to see more from you in your career!

  • Holy Gawd.

  • You are brilliant. This would be why you are one of my favorite dancers EVER.

  • Dance + Billy = Bliss

    Thank you.

  • Just Thank You. You're really special.

  • So amazing. The fact that some people don't see his talent baffles me.

  • you've got your muse by the handle, or it's got you by the handle. There's no purposeless move in your dance.

  • This is just amazing.....I've always always wanted to be a dancer, just never had the chance. I just wish I could've seen this in person.

  • OMG....Idk whatelse 2 say........BRILLIANT

  • WOW. Just wow.

  • Well, thank you so much for sharing this with us.

  • This is so illegal. Thank you.

  • At 4:04 ....just WHAT.

    Um...you're kind of brilliant.

  • Exhilarating. Emotional. Intelligent. Beautiful. Breathtaking. How do I describe thee? Let me count the ways.

  • c'est à rester scotché ! Just so beautiful

  • Not America's "favorite" dancer, just America's gravity, physics-defying, artistically edgeless, all-around dance creator.

  • We understand your brilliance, Billy. Some may not understand the beauty and vulnerability you bring to the stage, but it doesn't go unnoticed. Thank you for being that selfless passenger, boarding the stage everyday with no regrets.

  • OH. MY. GOD. :O beautiful. he's amazing.

  • Can I be you when I grow up? Thanks. Mr. Billy Bell you are untouchable! I'm just gonna watch this all day.
