Dance has no color

It is an expression of the soul and a universal feel for each other

If I were commenting on a Lyrical Dance competition, then I would say that this dance is passable. But I really dislike when Lyrical and Ballet dance studios try to emuluate the dance style of Alvin Ailey, or dance to songs like this. This dance simply does not do justice to the symbolism and meaning behind the song, or the original Alvin Ailey dance piece. The ladies in this piece did a fine job, but it hurts to see Ailey tainted like this.

@LaRocqueBey7 you are paraphrasing—and poorly I might add—the junk science of a guy who divided all of humanity into Caucasian (which included Northern Africans), Mongolian, American, Malayan and Ethiopean. That same guy who came up with the "Caucasian race" idea also claimed that the Caucasus Mountain region was the birthplace of humanity. He was wrong, of course, as are you.

@whatacutie614 Dang! What a beautiful piece! I did a dance to the same song, but too bad I did it to the Mary Mary version with four Lyrical Dancers and I am a Popper, Locker, B-girl, Uprocker, House Dancer, Liquid Dancer, and Krumper.

@mykiesr3 if you want to be "real" then let's talk about the fact that "wade in the water" is a BIBLICAL EXPERIENCE; and if these young ladies were moved by what Ailey put out there then so be it. Grace and talent are placed within many within God's creation. Yes, we African American are a very demonstrative people, full of rhythm and soul, but how horrible and unloving thing to say. How would you feel to here someone say and African American ballerina cannot dance Swan Lake. Good job ladies.

Your roots are in the caucus mountains not Africa..this video is insulting.

Do you know who sang this version of the song?

I understand about the passion, but unless one of these young ladies are the chroeographer, they are probably dancing like they were told how to...Yall did beautiful. Jesus is LORD!
