[dillonmiranda6]

These stupid covers.......... I just want Garth :*(

[ProffessorT]

Very nice. Thanks for sharing.

[italianmusicfreak1]

we need more of these types of songs instead of the covers. i mean some are good but its Garth. lets just have his versions!!

[chadia84]

@italianmusicfreak1

It is garth singing.....

[italianmusicfreak1]

@chadia84

yea i know. my point was that there are so many others that have covers on youtube and not enough of his stuff on it...at least from what i can find

[LarsManager]

Very good!!!

[lumberjack5563]

This is my favorite song by garth brooks

[megabritneyfan101]

My dad recorded A mixed tape of Garth Brooks songs, noone heard how good he was till they played it at his funeral. :/

[soul71000]

@megabritneyfan101 :'(

[TheBigmarc76]

I don't like country music but I love this song. This song tugs at your heart strings. It makes you wonder what if you were to leave this world tommorrow? Are you at peace with loved ones, friends and neighbors? Remember we need to live life to the fullest because tommorrow is never promised

[sparcotiel]

Country music has love,fun,work hard play hard and every aspect of live written al over it , it makes me wonder what is happening to the word and stuff i wish some world leaders acted more human they aint more that you and me, we are all human and all i can say show some love to other people, there is already enough trouble going on !

[cowgirl13233]

10 people don't know the true meaning of love

[cowgirl13233]

BEAUTIFUL!!!! Garth Brooks is amazing :) <3

[SirGerry2011]

Thanks for upload.Brilliant!..How did you beat the Censor ??..I tried loads of times but failed...?

[jornkris]

@SirGerry2011 Hi, No magic to beat the censor, just uploadet it :)

[SirGerry2011]

@jornkris well ive been blocked loading loads of videos..Faith Hill, The Eagles Prince even Dean Martin lol...but i just uloaded da best Garth Brooks sound a like ever on my recent video. Thanks.

[trhughes09]

This was the last song that I danced to with the love of my life. The next day, he was killed by a drunk driver.Tommorrow will be 20years without him and this song can still take me back to 1992 and him. And it can still bring a tear to my eyes and sorrow to my heart. But I wouln't have missed knowning him.

[bigdaddy2981]

@trhughes09 wow, sorry to hear about that. Really sad though. Glad I never had to experience anything like that. But, I was married to someone who did. I never could reach her the way I wanted to. She died that day with him I guess. Made it almost ten years but just really alot of pain there.

[soul71000]

@trhughes09 i feel your pain,no truly i do :'(

[FriendlyExecutioner]

Awesome to find the original with copyright infringement by google! Yeah!

[deborahlynn555]

I love this song. It so reminds me of my brother when he passed. Thanks for recording the real Garth Brooks song..... The Dance.

[haleywalters30]

8 peoplee dont know how to dancee </3

[NeonSlushehz]

I love this song, it means so much to me

[MeghanBeatle]

Brings me back to good summer memories 

[amberlovesbotdf]

my uncle was his body guard i never got to meet him he died a month before i was born to 11 years ago this song reminds me of him R.I.P

[45yrsphilsfan]

Thank you Garth for bringing one of the most beautiful songs ever sung. I lost my mom AND dad within 6 months and now have had to battle MS for the last 14 years Your songs especiall this one inspire me that the master plan is not ours to determine but a power greater than ours  Some of the most poignant lyrics Thanks again so good to hear the real deal

[sparcotiel]

thumbs up if you got tricked into watching a cover before this

[Mschristinalouise]

Beautiful ... Love Garth --- wish he let more songs on youtube to promote sales xxx

[MissAllineedislove]

My uncle before he was diagnosed with terminal throat cancer used to sing this song so everytime I hear it I think of him..... I really miss him!

[silkcity19]

My Mother being very sick brought me back to this song. Please get well Mom I love you

[commander5779]

@silkcity19 God bless all of you in strife...may it all turn around and your lives be happy...in my prayers!

[mrsgomez91]

i luv you uncle paulie nd i luv you daddi i hope yu get better i dont wanna lose you

[trainmasterup]

Does Anyone else notice the heart shape between their necks at 0:14

[commander5779]

THANK YOU!!! A man who raised me right...never hit my Mother, loved her with his whole heart. They separated...scotch, every night. Mom had quit drinking.Even still, after a passionate kiss in divorce court, They remained best friends (& for 6 yrs, still legally married...) Charles Allen Arnett passed away a bit over a month before my wedding of cancer. They loved each other till the second he died. She sobbed, "I've lost my best friend!" He didn't make me, he made me who I am. I am proud.

[PeytiezMomma912]

@commander5779 this made me cry. one of the most beautiful things I have ever read....

[xoxNatalieMichelexox]

Thank you for posting the true song! I'm tired of not finding the original to songs. I don't care about random people singing, I just care that i hear the song the way it's supposed to be sung. Especially this song.

[zgravmary]

@xoxNatalieMichelexox AMEN! In this song, as sung by GB, are all the poignant moments of all the romances of my life. I'm 64, and it still makes me cry....

[StonewallJackson26]

Garth Brooks is an icon.

[hferg66]

I love this song is soo beautiful :)) this is my song to Lukas I love u soo much

[shannonmoorerocks123]

This song was played at my best friends' memorial a few years ago. I can't believe your gone and wish you were still here. R.I.P. Dalton, we love and miss you.

[timbbldr]

thumbs up if you banged to this song!

[PPINO123]

I could have missed the pain, but I would have had to miss the best Summer of my life...

[anaheimducksfan159]

@PPINO123 God, I hear that. Though I'm not sure if my pain was in the same sense as yours. I had this thing with this girl last summer, tried harder than I've ever tried in my life, to get to where I got to with her, then late-august rolled around, and she left for school halfway across the country. Shit sucks.

[PPINO123]

@anaheimducksfan159 Well it depends. I mean the whole Summer I only got to see him once a week except for our four day summer camp. That's where I really fell for him. If I hadn't of spent so much time with him I wouldn't have the pain I have now...yet I wouldn't trade those four days or any other part of the summer for anything in the world...

[mariachiplayer1]

R.I.P. to the best math teacher i ever had, Mr Frutoso Lopez. your funeral today was so hard to take part in, but i know your with God now.

[daisydukes1223]

They played this song at my grandma's funeral. 4 years ago today i loss my grandma. God has one of the most beautiful Angel's he can ask for

[ShySmilingMoose]

I have always loved this song. Thank you for sharing. :)

[chuzziii]

I miss him. He needs to release a new song.

[suziQ27]

just grateful I was given the opportunity ~

[slow2respond7711]

This is the song my step dad had play at my mom's funeral, I honestly can't listen to this song without crying.... It's such a beautiful song though :')

[monkeyboy1971]

This song still brings the tears...all these years later.

[mrstevehartman]

Garth Brooks lonely hearts band....

[MrJoopitor1]

I dont know if you will ever see this or not but should you come across this video somehow someway then I know you will again come back to me. Our relationship was like no other and something I will always cherish even though at the time and even right now the circumstances couldnt be more complicated You are the love of my life and every heartbreak I have had in the last 10 years are most likely due to the loss of our relationship because I have never been able to get you out of my mind.

[TupacCobain]

[Constance2000]

yes finally no crap cover.

[kenditty79]

I stood in front of you not knowing what would happen, now i kneel from the truth. I miss you Lisa Marie </3

[leigh5531]

This is a really good song

[jeffgordongal24]

I agree. FINALLY no cover, the real Garth. THANK YOU. LOVE the vid. TY for sharing

[Ktiger71]

I appreciate the attempts by those who wish to cover such a great song!! but i'm so glad to finally find an originel. Garth must not let YouTube put his songs out there so much.

[planktonau]

Problem is Garth Brook's won't ALLOW his music on YouTube and as soon as he knows this clip is up it too will be taken down. That's why you only see covers. He doesn't have his music on itunes either.

[bbeas40165]

@planktonau yea he dose

[Matzingha]

a musican god, NOBODY may cover him!!!

[mochafrappemasta]

It's so hard to find Garth on youtube without it being some ridiculously awful cover.

[HajjiBabyKiller]

@mochafrappemasta Fuck'n tell me about it.

[momof2boys0708]

This song was played at my cousin (19yr old) funeral in 1999 at my grandfathers funeral in 2003 he died the day after his bday. and my cousin (18) funeral in june of 2011 he left behind a 1 yr old little girl. i miss all of them so much. i was 12 when my cousin was murder. i was 16 when i grandfather passed away and i was 24 when i my 18yr old cousin was shot in the head. I cry every time i hear this song. R.I.P Randy Lynn Reed, Lester Talley and Levon Lynn Jericho Talley. <3

[mariachiplayer1]

@momof2boys0708 May God bless them. May their souls and the souls of all the faithful departed be resting in God's loving arms and find light, happiness, and peace.

[elffanatic2000]

No offense to all y'all out there in YouTubeLand. But NONE OF Y'ALL CAN SING! SO PLEASE STOP TRYING!

[saraiba59]

wow brings back memories good job for putting this song for us to listen to, Thanks

[Fringe13]

This is the most covered song on youtube it seems 90% of teh videos I click to find this are covers >.>

[rorohitch]

I have no demeaning words to you who covered this song, but It just isn't the same without this great voice. It is so comforting to hear. It's like listening to Dan Patrick, afterwards you just don't want to hear any othe rsports announcers. It's like laying your head in your ladies lap and going to sleep. It's just GOOD!

[lindap354]

R.I.P Ricky, every time that I hear this song I think of you, I know that you loved this and requested it be played when you passed away. you were taken much to soon. I love you, and I would not of changed a thing, because the dance was well worth it.

[imaegg12]

Wow, I really appreciate this song finally being available without having to search through covers! This song is so beautiful, and means so much to me... R.I.P

[tjcaddy04]

R.I.P Private 1st Class Carla Monique Shanklin...May the love & dance we shared never fades away...I will always love you..

[toronto105]

YES no more stupid GB wanna be's with their weak ASS covers

[400hpmustang]

Love can hurt, love can blissful, love can make u shed tears. Jackie, I hope things are great up there beyond the clouds. Hopefully someday we can reunite like ol' times and share a dance on the dock at the lake. I don't how I've made it 10 years without you. Love you,

Scott

[beautifulkat1]

I love this song, its so sad. its weird how I cant find "the dance" by garth brooks on itunes?? whats up with that, all I can find are tribute albums

[heckenlucas]

@beautifulkat1 Garth won't put his music on itunes -- not unless they agree to put entire albums and sell them as an album. He wants all of his songs from an album taken together. He also doesn't want to be told what to charge for his music. So we'll have to stick to You Tube.

[420dreal]

finally a garth brooks video done right and with taste thank you so much for posting this

[tylean210]

finally the REAL GARTH BROOKS AND THE DANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!

[melgantis209]

@tylean210 i herd that garth brooks songs are hard to find real ones insted of a BS cover

[kateomprint]

love this for ;7 yearsago my husband and i split up and then we came back togetherv with a better relationship than before all i can say is let the past go and concentrate on the future.

[dwainwalton]

LOVE SWEET LOVE!!

[onyxinunikuya312295]

This is one of the only good quality versions of the song that is not a cover or random tribute. Thanks so much!

[sundaze1113]

To My Indiana Bud (Leonard) from USAR Ft. Gap PA in '94. I wish I could have our last dance.

[tazdaystar]

Oh thank God the real Gath Brooks Thank you

jornkris

[PaisleyPlace]

Please REMOVE THE LYRICS! Put them in the description area. It detracts majorly from the video itself when more than a third of the screen is blocked by lyrics that 99.9% of people who come to hear this song actually KNOW THE LYRICS ALREADY.

[nerddeluxeify]

This the real. own finallyyyy one of the best songs ever.

brook,ssssss is the best.

Respect form the Dutch ( nederlands )

[Tharese64]

I agree, thanks for posting the REAL DEAL! I have a saying, "if you can't improve it, don't redo it!"

[kathleendavidson65]

oh p.s i know i spelled thay wroung so get over it

[ashieandchan]

@kathleendavidson65 You also spelt "wroung" wrong. Just saying.

[kathleendavidson65]

Finally...Garth is back!

[scottfever2006]

IM CONFUSED WHAT ARE COVERS

[EarthsAngels]

[joey199202]

@scottfever2006 Covers are where people who arent the artist sing the song

[Izzycuddles09]

I love this song.

[cariecoe]

this was my favorite song when i was married to my husband, my greatest joy was having my son that was part of my destiny

[thymistacles]

Finally, no piece of shit cover. I really hate when people do that.

[JustMeOrMaybeNot]

[MizzManda91]

[AllAmericanNoodle]

[sundaze1113]

@bhauf15 me too :(

[capersam]

Yes, I am also glad to hear the original. Garth did it best!

[Pyr0cd]

this song was played at my uncle's funeral, as he was lowered :'( cry

[the1texasmccoy]

You gotta be careful posting recordings of GB on YT. The reason they are so hard to find here is because he doesn't want people getting his songs for free by stealing them digitally. He doesn't make any money that way. GB songs usually get taken off YT VERY VERY quickly, so it's a bit surprising that this has been up so long. Just a warning to the maker of the video, if the youtube gods find it they'll take it down and give you a strike. I know from personal experience. I'm just trying to help. 

[delisha081]

ya got that

[cmlittle99]

It took me awhile but I finally found the Garth Brooks version of the dance and it was worth the wait!! This is such an amazing, truthful song!!!!

[cindyblueeye79]

[patcorkery1985]

[chrissy1718]

[d1390marc]

I Want Garth Brooks to have a VEVO that way we could listen to all his songs the right way.. I just Hate when there are so many Covers...that we can't find the originals.. It took me hours to find this one
