Melissa and Ade - This Woman's Work (for the Breast Cancer)

[VelvetGal5]

This was one of the best emotional dancing performances I ever saw on TV. My mother and aunt are breast cancer survivors. And I know of many other women who are breast cancer survivors. This performance really touched my heart. As you can see, this performance moved the judges as well. Performances like this are the reason why we watch dancing tv shows. respecta24, thanks so much for uploading this performance.

[completelyNUTSify]

I've watched this dance no less than 500 times and every time I am touched by the raw emotion of Melissa and sheer strength of Ade. Brings me to tears every time!!

[ENA94]

oh i just love tyce.

[darkishphoenix]

best number of any season. I think "wow" a lot when I watch these dance competitions but this was the only time dance brought me to tears.

[kcbanana93]

ahh i love nigel and mia<3

[malaysiawalters]

I still cry when I watch this

[ThegiantDavid]

I still remember when this first came out, and I remember bawling my eyes out in front of the TV. This is just, amazing. Still gets me everytime.

[yebatl]

I have seen this a few times myself and still get a little emotional. I watch every season and still i think no other couple could have pulled this routine off better than these two. They have/had the maturity/strength that no other couple has had since.

[gotdance777]

Rest in Peace Patti

[sophieeeishereee]

omg i am bawling

[cuteyaya101294]

she looks like she flying when he picks her up it is so beautiful

[xosweet91kissesx]

What's the song called? Plz tell me!

[ThePryncess85]

@xosweet91kissesx This Woman's Work by Maxwell

[darkishphoenix]

@xosweet91kissesx the original was by kate bush, which i would say the one thing that could have made this better is if they used the original version

[Angelzofblue]

GREAT SHOW AND DANCERS

[5339751Pet]

[NicolleSmith100]

[paulikuikli]

[marii387]

[WitchlightNW]

Mia just set me off completely

[MelissaMees]

[WitchlightNW]

@MelissaMees it wasnt? noo way

[MelissaMees]

@WitchlightNW yeeeup, don't know why :/

[sweetiepea13]

i tired really hard not to cry

[melanierhoadscover]

6:40 - is that the girl that plays April Kepner on Grey's Anatomy???

[LetItShine263]

It's nice for Mary to cry tears of joy rather than scream her head off for once.

[amzigal94]

i love this dance so much, i have watched it so many times. I wish i could dance with that much passion and emotion. Absolutly Beautiful.

[abullock1998]

so touching, i got chills and i still have tears streaming down my face. such a beautiful story and dance.

[bobzilla009]

at 6:16 Nigel starts crying



[middertater]

my mom just was diagnosed with breast cancer. this dance makes me cry so much.

[avita2012]

Many women die of cancer but the original song is based on women who die during child birth.. don't forget them. I found this performance fake and not understanding of the real meaning of the song

[bunnyears73]

@avita2012 The real meaning of a song is the listener's interpretation. Ask any songwriter. Please don't judge a performance just because you believe that a song was misrepresented. Would you say what you did to a woman that is fighting breast cancer?! The performance was flawless and all that matters is that so many people have been touched by it and draw inspiration and hope from it.

[sweetiepea13]

@avita2012 you did not just say that! you cant judge a performance by the song. that makes no sense. so what it was like that. it wasnt fake! it was the most touching and moving pieces ever! you must not have a heart then!

[fearfijian1]

talk about quality folks... thats my afternoon for ya... glued 2 youtube- pressing repeat lols

[ScribbledSomething]

Brilliant. Simply brilliant.

[emyblueish]

I always think I can hold it together... until Mia starts talking... then all I can do is cry

[nika798]

@emyblueish same here, its awful :(

[LaMachmud]

hermosa pieza (L) la humanidad necesita mas dedicacion para todo

[minimee01233]

Ade is sooo fine! Beautiful piece.

[chatonacho]

Since it is called the song?

[minimee01233]

@chatonacho "This Woman's Work" by Maxwell :)

[GingerWyatt1]

Muito lindo, tbm! Esse eu realmente chorei!

[HayliMesser98]

Thats my dance teacher ade<3 Who Knew how far he went<3 how strong he is, Ade we were all so so proud of you<3 and now your back at our studio and we now all look up to you<3

[Sportylatina16]

@kierrastarriasa: Ignorant people do.

[meljenni1]

This is beautiful... Random question but does anyone know how to keep a scarf like that on your head while dancing? Do you think they sewed it using her hair? If anyone has any tips, please let me know!

[taratkd]

@meljenni1

They either used bobby pins or hair glue.

[lildeegurrl]

I've watched this at least 20 times and still cry. Awesome dance.

[kierrastarriasa]

How could anyone dislike this??

[E7T39E]

I love this couple

[lauren100011]

[EmbajadordeDios]

I Love this dance, it touch my heart and soul.

Thanks to everyone, who had something to do with this video.

Specialy tise and Melisa and Ade

[hizokaR]

gracias:)

[ContagiousSmiles1]

If you don't shed atleast one tear after watching this... You dont fully understand life and the causes tht might and can happen to anyone and even yourself.

[super0star0material]

@ContagiousSmiles1 Just because I didn't cry doesn't mean I didn't feel anything.

[godsdiva08]

Perfect video to watch at this time of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. That and Yes by Musiq Soulchild.

[KidTyler]

Wonderful.

[nahii93]

Amazing! this coreography makes me ... o don't know... it's amazing! my heart feel this art... this is a real art... congratulations :')

[23681lucky]

Is that April Kepner from Grey's Anatomy at 6:39?

[cogee123]

@23681lucky wow looks like her O_o

[sarbear891]

Thank you so much for posting this video. I've been looking for a decent recording of all of it. Having so many women in my life fighting and being a fighter, myself, this means so much.

[BunnyPrince147]

Melissa is my most favourite dancer of 'SYTYCD' <3

[VampLuvr666131]

who ever did not cry or felt like crying after seeing that is a heartless self centered asshole who hope dies very slowly and painfully because that was... the most perfect dance ever created.

[MyYenia]

NO WORD TO EXPLAIN EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS RUTINE

GRACIAS

[MrsIsabelleT19]

@MsZabs

I was woundering the exact same thing, i went back twice and I'm almost completly convinced it's her

[MsZabz]

Is the girl in the audience at 6:39 Dr. April Kepner (Sarah Drew) from Grey's Anatomy? Is there a way to find out if she was actually there?

[pushin08]

Wow, touching. Good vid

[Flopsykw]

@bellabubbi Tyce Diorio x

[Laurafalckvigh]

wauw.........

[Candy2545]

This is so beautiful. The heart and soul they put into this just makes me cry every time.

[reptileroom2]

OMG!!! i love this dance!! i cry every time!! it never gets old!!! Tyce is one of my favorite on the show!! I love love love the circus number in season 8!!.... SO GOOD!!

[curikit]

This is the most beautiful dance of all the dances, in my mind.

[klausoma]

My 79 year old aunt has stage 4 breast cancer. Long story short, thank you for this and allowing me to see that someone cares.

[tnk0505]

the song alone gives me chills and then you add two of the best so you think you can dance dancers to the mix with a tyce routine and then you tell me it;s about breast cancer-which my mother had...its just pure perfection!!!

[nahii93]

wondefull! incredible! thank you tyce and thank you melissa & ade

[GDCPhaNTaSiZe]

one of the best pieces they ever had on sytycd. absolute masterpiece

[justiceegray]

amazing.

[malailuzija]

This is why I adore contemporary over any other type of dance.

[TheMandymegan]

i mean my mum died becuase of cancer

[TheMandymegan]

[MimiAborowa]

6:39 reminds me of April Kepner in Grey's Anatomy

[MimiAborowa]

this is an awesome piece, but i prefer Travis Walls .. FIx you, with Allison & Robert.. but this is still so powerful & beautiful

[MissPriss715]

Everytime I see this I cry because it is such a heartfelt and beautiful piece of art. This is by far my fav dance from this show.

[mbtdrfanatic12]

This is one of my all time favorites. It is one of the only dances that I have ever cried while watching.

[cece4212]

[HaileyNumber1]

[TetraDodecaMan]

[andreahiphop100]

one person who clicked the dislike button don't have feelings. at all.

[mickeyme333]

@andreahiphop100 the girl, andreahiphop100 said it was a mistake

[DoloresKostic]

Just watched this on TV...oh mine!!As a former dancer I can say that the coreographe is very very hard, the message is very deep, and a perfect example how you can send a message, an important message through dancing! It seems so simple even though it's not...simply amazing!

[nvrlvdu]

i lost my grandma to cancer n every time i blubber like a baby... =(

[beabeanfilms]

I cry everytime I see this. Hands down the best piece ever performed on this show. Amazing! Such talent and feeling!

[islandgirl76]

Can I say that I absolutely LOOOOOVE Tyce????!!! Well I do!!!!

[islandgirl76]

Amazing, tear jerker of a piece! Ade is such a strong dancer- love that he's an all star!

[AndeeDeeKate]

Amazing piece!

Damn, I wish I could stop crying when I'm watching it...

[jizzy31295]

Everything Mia Michaels says is so touching.

Shows how dance really is art. Not just technique. It has a lot to do with emotions too, and this piece was just beautiful. Brought me to tears =( Lost my grandma to Ovarian Cancer and I wish there was something i could do to help her. Anyways, So you think you can dance, thank you for giving us the opportunity to watch all these amazing dancers<3

[andreahiphop100]

@jizzy31295

i'm sooo sorry, i clicked the dislike button on your comment, it was a mistake. :/

[jizzy31295]

@andreahiphop100 hahah it's all good! :)

[scoutramsay]

I will always remember in the finale when the choreographer announces his friend that he choreographed this for is now cancer free, and he got a standing ovation. Nearly brought tears to my eyes.

[carnitta2000]

was it emmy nominatied???

[spanglish156]

@Tildenhs yes it is

[thespian37]

The only routine that can even be mentioned in the same breath is Robert and Allison from last season (Fix You). And I'm weary of even saying that.

[pryan0424]

best dance on this show ever hands down

[dancergrlxD]

mia always gets me tearing up this was a beautiful dance

[MkayDancingGirl]

This dance makes me cry i love this dance!! its so inspiring! it make me want to dance just like them

[erikasuede]

the one person who didnt like this must be an heartless idiot.

[arjunrathi93]

@erikasuede and a lowlife who cannot appreciate anything!

[erikasuede]

@arjunrathi93 you said it!

[darkqueen12]

@erikasuede No I'm sorry, I hit the dislike button by mistake, my tears were blurring my vision! 

[TheBelmor]

Wunderbar!! He visto la final de la temporada y he quedados maravillado de todo: el ingenio de los coreógrafos, la plasticidad de los bailarines, la certeza de juicio de los jueces (Nigel, Mary, Mia y otros) de los cuales he aprendido a apreciar más la danza. Last but not least, la prestancia de la anfitriona Cat. Hubo alegría y emoción de la triunfadora, aunque mi favorita era Melissa. Gracias!!!! Los escenarios eran también hermosos.

[ebasimon]

I can hold myself together everytime until Mia starts to cry...

[immortalflame77]

speechless.. so beautiful the ability to bring such emotion and show the struggles of those battling cancer ..

[jennyblue1717]

This is the reason I fell in even more love with Tyce Diorio and his choreography. He is amazing. This is, by far, my favorite SYTYCD performance ever. God bless my dear friend, Sandy as well as my cousin's wife, Monica.

[pvbandgeek]

@respecta24 - @TheBelmor said "It is the most moving I've seen in dance. Every time I see it excites me. Thanks Melissa and Ade."

[Kimalee1992]

This is one of my favorite performances.

[Butterflies4232011]

Made me cry

[TCRansLo]

I always cry like a freaking baby when I see this. My gosh this was stunning.

[americangal5]

I sob when I see this piece. This was absolutley amazing.

[TheBelmor]

Es lo más conmovedor que he visto en danza. Cada vez que lo veo me emociona. Gracias Melisa y Ade.

[respecta24]

@TheBelmor thank you for your comment :")

[brunasnr]

Bravo! no more words to express what I'm feelling right now

[jessjh94]

such a beautiful dance, and such a powerful message. This dance makes my cry every time I watch it since I too have dealt with cancer.

[dragon56112]
