  • "Tribute" to teen suicide? Are you sure you titled this correctly?

  • sorry this bored me shitless.

  • idk if its just me but i dont like the choreography at all

  • sorry.. I just don't feel it .. the emotion

  • geo:)

  • I watched this video so many times ,

    it really shows that a dancer is dedicated too what they practice nd want to do.

    I thought it would be another one of those, jump,spins,twil,nd stuff like that ,

    but this video truely shows everything a GREAT dancer has .

    i watched it so many times that my hands are num from leaning down on them .

    this is one amazing video , keeep it going , it really shows girls .

  • Life should be a joy to everyone but often we make it a sad happening.

    Either stop bullying or stop school !

  • GREAT !

  • i really like this dance don't get me wrong but, is this a solo or a group dance?

  • @squagleeeeevvvaaaaah small group because a solo is only one person

  • @squagleeeeevvvaaaaah I know but just the way this one is performed it's like a solo

  • WTF?

  • Pretty lame and stupid

  • @TruthAlwaysHerts

    When/If you ever lose someone to suicide. Or even come to the point in your life where you try and survive. come back and watch this video. You'll understand then how truly great this is. The dancing, and the song. Watch it once with the music then once without.

    This was a fantastic performance. If you don't like it, stop watching, and go to something you like. But don't EVER DOWNGRADE someone because it may seem stupid or lame. To another it may be a life saver.

  • @Starwarsfreak16 Young teens living in a country like America who commit suicide are idiots.... too bad, they are now worm food six feet under the ground.  These kids are cowards and stupid. FACT !

  • @TruthAlwaysHerts you dont know anything about suicide FACT you cant help being suicidal your life could be going great and you feel suicidal for no reason the longer you leave it the worse it gets everything hurts you more than it should

  • Comment removed

  • @TruthAlwaysHerts not all teens suicides are wusses who kill themselves because someone teased them

    also for some people life isnt worth living besides america aint so great

  • @keaverkite Yes, all. they are now six feet under the ground, worm food. What did they die for?? the real tribute is our young soldiers who died for a cause.

  • @TruthAlwaysHerts

    Wheres the proof that they are cowards and stupid? Right now America's not doing so well. People who attempt or commit suicide aren't stupid just troubled. Some people have disorders and they can't help it. Such as depression, or schizophrenia. Even if they get help, that doesn't 100% mean it's going to get better. My cousin's husband died in the iraq war... so she shot herself to be with him. People who commit suicide don't have someone there to help them when/if they need it

  • I know there was not as much passion as there could be.. But it is still very very tear dripping.

  • dancing was good, not enough passion. there should have been more if it's a tribute

    = }

  • I actually think theres no emotion in the dancers.. it the choreos good though

  • this is wat dance truly is

  • ive tried overdose and ive tried cutting but truthfully ive been in dancing for 10 yrs and dancing is what keeps me from killing myself. im a dancer and im strong and passionate w everything i do.

  • @nvrshtnvr97 Keep holding on. I know how you feel, I've held a knife to my wrist more than once. But even though the darkness seems to have taken over, you have to belive that there is still light somewhere. I tell myself that if I can feel it when the knife cuts me, I'm still alive and still human enough to not let go. It will get better, I promise.

  • youre lucky to have a spot on this earth. instead of ending it, try to make the most out of it.

    why should death be an answer?

  • @xxoogossipgirl it never is. it's usually an escape route. same as starvation, comfort eating, overdosing and throwing up. They're all the same thing with different symptons, and different levels of pain.

  • This is absolutly beautiful <3

  • @rosecoloredworld: i completely agree, and why was that the last performance1 they were amazing!

  • im a dancer too and this is really what dancing is, dancing with emotion but no emotion

  • beautiful.

  • @thecyberpunk totally agree

  • There is nothing wrong with ending your own life. You are going to die anyway - it is just a matter of time. It's your body - your life - your choice

  • @HOLDTHAPHONE its not just ur life u impact everyone u know by ending it becyz uv made an impressin on them i hope u dont choose to end it all be strong talk to someone

  • @joyannaroof Remember that we are all going to loose family-members and friends - it is just a matter of time. If someone cares for you and loves you they also want the best for you so if you decides that ending your OWN life is the best for you then there is nothing selfish about it! Freedom to live and freedom to die

  • @HOLDTHAPHONE I don't think that theres something wrong with it exactly, but I think if that's what someone does, then that person was truely struggling, and thats whats really wrong, if you don't want to experience life any longer because you are in so much emotional pain.

  • @broadwaynballet Suicide has many reasons. Maybe some old person just do not want to go to an retirement-home, maybe someone is just bored living, maybe someone simple want to decide the circumstances for the inevitable death or maybe someone is very sick and just wants peace..

  • @broadwaynballet When kids compare their insides with other peoples outsides they make a fundamental error. Pain is unavoidable in life, but suffering is a choice, its optional. We often have little control over what happens to us, but its what we DO with those events that spells the difference.

    Emotional pain is entirely dependant upon the control I give my ego over my life.

    With that in mind, the way to sanity and freedom is obvious.

  • I cant believe they closed down :(

  • this title seems so insensitive.

  • YAWN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What has dancing around in underwear got anything to do with teen suicide........ exhibitionists!!! PLEASE !!!!!!!.xoxox

  • Wonderfull.. but why is the LAST performance ever??????

  • @DanceDaay they closed down after that competition. they did not have enough money.

  • This performance turned me to Mush. Every second brought me to 1 inch of a memory I and all who view it have experienced. Truely, Dance is part 2 of the musical trio! Part 1 is the music(Life). Part 2 is living it(the Dance) and part 3 is the experience(The Memory of it). The Choreo. of this team had to be a genius to be able to lock on to that and the connection it holds to our everyday expectations....To say this is Dance is an under-statement. Life and Love is what expressionism is all about!

  • why was this the last performance ever?

  • This is what dance is and what it should be. Dance is about expressing emotion and bringing issues to the forefront of the thoughts of those who watch them. Every time I watch this dance, I cry. I watch it once a week to remind myself why I dance. I dance to express my emotions. One of my best pieces of choreography came shortly after a dear friend committed suicide.

  • this is beautiful

    - this is why i dance.

  • this was amazing, it showed so much emotion through a dance.

  • the song is actually called hanging by a thread by jann arden

  • uhhh , im pretty sure this dance has more emotion than your small minds can fathome. amazing job ladies i cried. (:

  • wtf?

  • @matt3794 Really? Both women AND men find it interesting. Don't watch it if you don't want to see it, jerk.

  • @dancinkk22 no, it's just for women. Men don't like this. Some of them pretend to like it in order to spend time with a woman so they can have sex later.

  • the dance is good, but you have no emotion at all, you need to give 200% on stage and in class so that you will do it even better at competition (:

  • Geooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!­!!!  Wassup mannnnnn

  • What song was being used?

  • cry is the name of the song

  • at cknj3746, just what suicidal girls need, you telling them that other people are prettier then them

  • Beautiful Girls!

  • That's just what all the suicidal girls need- a bunch of girls prettier than them dancing around to a song about suicide : /

  • ik  =/ its sad :,(

  • Sensual!

  • teen nudity + suicide :|

  • @razvanz0r , is anyone nude?

  • This kind of message should be showed in all high schools around the world. Great job!

  • "Hanging By A Thread" 2007 Showstopper American Dance Championships if you put this in the search it will come up with a better version, but you're right, this is such a beautiful dance.

  • This is the most moving dance i have ever seen. Great job girls(:

  • i luv the dance its amazing and its sad the studios being shut down but they cut alot out of the song

  • they didnt cut the song weird, the video's just cut weird, there used to be a better version on youtube.

  • I am no dancer. My eyes did tear up... To me, the girl in white, was pleading for help. The girls in red offered it. They responded with love, hugs, lifted her 'up'.... Then , what I saw was 'resignation' from the girls in red, Everyone said their goodbyes.

    She could not be 'saved',,,so she 'jumped'...

  • AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • what's the name of song?

  • ummm Hangin By a Thread.....its in the title

  • Wow.

    I really appreciate the message you sent through this routine.

    I love how you showed such emotion.

    And thank you for making it show what struggle teens truely go through.

    I understood every move and every emotion sent through it.

    Thank you so much.

    I would love to see this studio preform again.

  • 1:52 ,,thats different

  • why is this the last performance? its soo good. and its inspiring.

  • The studio got closed down or something

  • aww ): they seem like a good studio

  • so good

  • The camera angles change so much that you can't really keep track of the dance..

  • yea i cant stand the way showstoppers films its dances. normaly the vids are bad quality but this one is good

  • this is what dance really is. i see so many routines and all it is is turns and jumps and kicks- absolutely no emotion, none of it means anything. it's impressive, but it doesn't compare to this.

    this dance was fantastic. it was beautiful and i think anyone would agree. this is DANCE, real and raw.

    it doesn't make much sense, but do you get what i'm saying?

  • @rosecoloredworld i get you... basically ur saying "regular" dance has no meaning... and i agree. this dance has a point, it's not just random kicks and waving arms.

  • @rosecoloredworld i know what you mean but i disagree ^^ i hate that other dance forms don't tend to get as much 'respect' we can call it, just because you slap a meaningful title on and flail around like you're abstract doesn't mean that it has anymore emotion than other dances...

    not trying to argue, just speaking my mind

  • @rosecoloredworld жопа

  • this is another dance i think if i would have seen live i would have cried

    such emotion, it sends a great message.

    i love it <33

  • wow... i absolutly loved it! great dance and i loved how they were together... only thing i saw was that they were getting ready for the lift and i was hoping the would just keep there hands by their sides or something but either way i still loves it!!!!!!! amazing!!!!!

  • Wow, what a beautiful dance!! Great job everyone!

  • Hey do you go t o Dufordance???

  • That was beautiful.I loved it

  • why did they shut down

  • this was gorgeous <33

  • i love this dance!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Hangin' By A Thread by Jann Arden

  • who sings this song its beautiful

  • that was good. but why was it the last performances ever??

  • vision dance shut down

  • Everyone has so much emotionn. Awesome(:

  • btw. did vision dance shut down?

  • because of the bad economy. i think.

  • oh my goshh. this is one of the best modern dances ive ever seen!.. it has so much emotion and choreography is great! i wish i could dance like thatt. im just a ballet dancer lol.

    all those girls are so talentedd.

    i wish there wasnt all the cuts though!

  • i wish there weren't all the cuts - you can't see what's going on!

  • @ohmygoodnessrae same here, it's really annoying....do you know if there's a version on here that's the full thing?

  • @chocciebee not that i know of. sorry :/

  • Is this lyrical?

  • Yes

  • by far the best interpretation of this song i have seen. absolutely stunning

  • when did bras become acceptable dancewear?...

  • The main girl is wearing a bra..only a bra.

    I hate how these kind of costumes are acceptable now in dance..

  • why did vision dance close down?

  • Awesome dance! and to esalazardance I think this video was taken from a show therefore they probably cut it. Please correct me if I'm wrong Visions Dance.

  • I don't understand why you'd even put the videos up with all the cuts. It's impossible to see how the dance looks and flows. If you are that worried about people stealing your choreo, why put the videos up at all???

  • AMAZING!

    I can't stop watching great message great technique and great emotions like I said before AMAZING!

    good job =]]]

  • You guys are good! I love the story within the song. Great!

  • i tried to cimmit but my friend caught me the day i was going to let it all go but him, and dance were the only thing that could help me change any of it. not the conselers not the hospital not seeing my family cry, not hearing every excuse that every1 gave me.. dance was mainly what saved me along with my friend and to those, i owe my life to... because, they saved it.

  • Beautiful

  • who sings this.

  • omg words can't explain how amazing this dance is and 1:52 WOW!!

  • great dance i did a solo to this song when i was 6 and it was lyrical

  • Do you know the title/artist of the song? I think a lot of viewers (including me :D) would be grateful to have it.

  • Hanging by a thread by Jann Arden :)

  • this dance is beautiful........wish i could see it without the cuts......i wanted to cryyy!! very emotional! great ideaa!

  • Beautiful! I keep coming back to this dance it is so powerful and beautiful!!

    Does anyone know the title and author of this song?

  • This was beautiful. Truly amazing.

  • this is such a beautiful dance. i like the concept of the one girl in white.

  • who do you think you are? i lost a close friend to suicide 2 years ago, and dance is the only way i got through it. this dance inspires me every time i watch it. the storyline theyre dancing to is so real, and i applaud them.

  • can someone explain what the different girls are supposed to signify? I thought the red were the white's friends that had committed suicide, and were trying to stop her, by the way she touched them at the end.

    Like she wanted to join them?

    Anyways, could someone clear it up?

    This dance is beautiful!

    I wish I could see the whole thing without the cuts.

  • what i get is that the girl in white is trying to commit suicide, and the girls in red are trying to stop her. then at the end, like you mentioned i believe that its because AFTER she commited suicide she wanted to go back, and so since she committed the suicide, shes stopping her friends from doing the same thing. if that makes any sense. but this is beautiful<3

  • What do you mean "Last dance ever by visions dance???

  • The studio closed.

  • Omygosh why?

  • why did the studio close?

  • what is the name of the song and artist anyone?

  • thank you for truly showing the real meaning of dance. amazing.

  • 5 *****!

  • it was alright, but i don't like these types of dances I like the ones with more.. I guess you guys call them "tricks"? I can do what they do (in b4 then post a vid hurr durr and horde of insults)

    it's just my opinion, deal with it.

    but yeah it was boring. it was nice that they tribute it to a teen's suicide

  • WOW! this is so beautiful and amazing it's such an emotional dance i love it! the dancers are awsome and i love the song.

  • i STILL think this is the most amazing thing..ever.

    thanks for dancing the way you do girls, even though they probably won't read this.

    love this so so much

  • it doesnt really make sense to say that there is no "right" emotion, because obviously there is. if its about teen suicide, the girls in red (who im assuming are trying to PREVENT her from suicide) lacked the proper emotion. the dance was good but if they had FELT it a little more, it couldve been loads better. Especially in the part where she's walking down the center and their reaching to her. The main girl played the part well, but the rest, you have to admit, were definitely lacking.

  • ive been too so many dance comps and never seen any one jump off the stage! but this is amazing! why did that company stop preforming?

  • who sings this song??

  • jann arden

  • thanks :)

  • that was amazing....it gave me chills....the main girl had so much emotion. and the others didnt, which is exactly how its supposed to be

    GREAT JOB!! :)

  • Great choreography, great dancers :) X

  • i dont get it who comitted scuicide and why was it their last performance??

  • You reallly are a dumb blonde!! You can't be serious with that question!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Wow such a beautiful dance!!! I loved it!! And it had to be really had for those girls to be dancing their last performance together because each studio becomes a family and this was their last time all together!!! Great job girls!!!

  • what happened to visions? ):

    ahhh, I love this dance (:

  • I don't think some of people leaving comments understand what this dance is about becuase the girls show the kind of emotion they're supposed to. It's about teen suicide not someones dad dying or something. I thought ia was really good! and i could tell exactly what it was about without the title.

  • Amazing dance and dancers. I miss Visions.

  • very powerful, and you can tell the choreographer put alot of thought into this and the dancers are AMAZING!! i didn't exactly like the off the stage thing, and i couldn't exactly understand the overall message of the dance if i hadn't read the title but besides that it was wonderfull

  • i liked it... alot.

    personally i think that it had just the right amount of emotion from the girls in red. but its whatever.

    overrall very good.

  • i agree with ruehlbabe.

    but i also didn't like the jumping off the stage.

    but it was really good!

  • i think that all the people that are saying there is no emotion i wrong. (again, my opinion)

    i feel as though the girls in the red dresses are suppose to act as her "rock". like the person that will always be there for you when you fall. So when you think about it, there shouldn't really be emotion in them. but i think that the girl in the white outfit shows a great deal of emotion... my opinion

  • they had little emotion but just not enough to show that they're supposed to be sad.Thats what changes the dance is the personality

  • jumping off the stage kind of killed the dance for me... meh

  • no expression no emotion they know the dance and its okay but what makes a dance great is a combontion of the move s and the emotion and expresion!!!

    sorry :{

  • There was no emotion in that dance at all!

  • that was a really great dance. it makes me sad. fromloni

  • why is this there last performance???? but amazing really enjoyed it

  • Absolutely beautiful, that really was sublime and you could really feel the emotion and the story of the dance. Truely a worthy tribute. Well done.

  • too much emotion, lacks expression rather than emotion.

  • wow, this is beautiful, you are all amazing dancers!

    :)

  • oh wow! this really made me tear up! what a great peice and what awesome emotion! great job girls!

  • I used to dance at this studio it went out of business and alot of my friends are in this dance!

  • The girls in the red are like the girl in the white gaurdian angels. she wants to commit suicide and they are trying to stop her. they try everything but she ends up killing herself anyway thats why at the end she jumped down and lied on the ground. there trying to represent teen suicide. the reason i know this is because my best friends older sister is one of the girls in red.

  • do u know why it was the last performance of visions dance though?

  • breath taking.

  • this was amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • so beautiful!

  • ... beautiful.

  • This was amazing! Who sings this song?

  • why is it visions last dance?

  • I liked the dance, but i didn't get it =) of course i don't get a lot of stuff so i don't know if i even count lol
