One of the most beautiful songs ever written, and Garth sang it perfectly!
I lost my fiance to Cancer we used to slow dance in the living room to the dance. Twenty years later I still cry my eyes out. We loved all his music.
Sad but true love never dies. May Peace be with you.
, and stay well.
Thanks a lot for all the love and support and I really sorry for your lost💯❤️
I will love to surprise you, at least to put a smile on your face again. How long have you been a fan of mine??
I am nine years in the other side of losing my husband of 22 years. This song has held several meanings over the years, but now? If I'd have known how hard it was going to be to live after his death would I have gone through it? Yes. Because every step of our dance was worth it, even the hard ones. And each step taught me how to keep dancing without him, even if I miss a step or two. Miss you babe, I'm still here.
"And each step taught me how to keep dancing without him"...Oh my God. That line socked me straight in the heart. God bless you and may you continually feel the love and presence of your dearly beloved.
Your story is beautiful ❤️ I'm so sorry for your lose of your husband, glad you found your self. I know it's hard to go on but you do. God bless you 🌹🙏 Even though you took your steps with out him and kept going. In spirit he'll always be with you 🐞🌹🦋🌿🌿Stay strong. I lose my daughter in 10/6/18 @ 27yrs.. She was my world/now she's my Angel from the heavens and as a parent it ripped me apart. There isn't a day that goes bye that I don't feel that my heart is so heavy. Memories is what brings me back. I miss her so much, love you so much Nikki 💕 AMEN 🐞,(babygirl)
Last week I was driving and Garth's song the dance came on and I finally felt the full impact of it too. My husband died in 2011 and I wouldn't have missed all the pain because of all the love came with it.
Omg I'm so sorry for your loss. 😢 And that's so true you'll always have the good times and memories. ❤️
So sorry for your loss. Loving is worth the pain. Godspeed to you.
Kelly, you are (and always have been) so brave in your candor and authenticity- the sheer audacity to be 100% yourself. I admire and respect you beyond words.
Thank you so much I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤️
I will really to surprise you, so how long have you been a fan of mine?
The dance is played at every wedding my family has for my uncle who past away in 1992... it has so many meanings to so many people!!
I know you don’t know me Kelly but honestly I pray for you in my prayers. Prayers for what you are dealing with, for a healing heart and for joy. I pray God wraps his arms around you everyday. I hope when you come in contact with people they bring you all the joy that you give to others 💜 You are a gem. 💎
Shannon I doubt seriously if she is reading anyone comments don't want to bust you bubble but I do believe I'm right
Jenny, It does not matter if Kelly ever reads your comment or not. ( For your sake, I hope she does) God has laid people on my heart to pray for, Famous people, etc. They need our prays , too. You are a good person with a kind heart. Keep on praying for anyone God puts in your heart… I just prayed for you , too…. GOD BLESS….
@@carleenwilson8203 thank you Carleen. Ive been having a hard time lately with my mom and aunt passing. I am thankful for your prayers 💜
I'm three years post divorce and it's been brutal! I'm happy she has a lot of support. Going through it alone is ..... Don't loose yourself in your marriage - maintain your identity.
This is so true. In time you look back and remember the song hitting you in the heart but it doesn’t hurt anymore. Time really does heal relationship wounds.
Garth seems like the most down to earth dude. Love these two so much
Oh my God Kelly when is the album coming out, i can't wait
There are rumors of the first single being released next month. I hope it's true
@Abhra SRoy Have no idea when I read. Probably some KC Fan Club. But it's a rumor anyway. Not a trustable source. Unfortunately
Interesting take on The Dance-usually people associate it with a death, but you grieve major breakups too.
@@sunshine3914 me too. I've never thought of it with death. It always felt like a breakup song to me.
I associated the song in terms of a martyr also.. like an MLK and then they kinda used the song for grieving the Twin Towers..
I’ve always assumed it was about a break up... that said; it’s associated with a death for me. I always thought I was a little odd for feeling that way.
Love this thread! That’s the beauty of a great song-it has layers and can mean different things to each of us.
The Dance and Landslide are my two "trigger" songs. Divorce. The death of my brother and my parents.....this all is in it with these two songs and me. Thanks Kelly! And Thank you Garth and Stevie for putting feelings into words.
Thank you so much I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤️
I will really love to surprise you, so how long have you been a fan of mine??
i love you kelly ❤️ Please continue fighting.
I think music has that impact. It’s timeless. It doesn’t hit us until we needed it. I was listening to You were always on my mind (Fantasia’s cover) and for the the first time I heard it with new ears. I related it to myself.
Thank you for this, Kelly! I just listened to it with new ears and sobbed. Divorce is such a strange thing. ❤
The song The Dance got me through a very hard break-up and allowed me to fully move on to my current relationship with my husband of 28 years.
Nice to see Garth Brooks back on The Kelly Clarkson Show!
I’m so excited for her new album omg 😩
Garth Brooks is a better listener than me.
He seems like such a nice guy. Genuinely nice. Love those southern manners.
I still wish he, my beloved husband, was still here with me and my children. Its been over 7 yrs. and I haven't wanted any man, because my spouse and I said in our marriage vows, til death do you part, we're like 2 geese, they stay together forever, I'm still in love with my loving husband. My Jer-Bear, rest in peace, 10.07.13. I love you!!!
@@ginajones5470 sorry to hear that Gina I hope to keep you accompanied with my songs
"The Dance" was my parents' wedding song nearly 29 years ago.
The dance is my fave Garth Brooks song of all time. That song is just so beautiful. And Kelly did such a beautiful job singing it for Garth recently. I hope she sings it again on her show.
Bless her heart! She talks at the speed of sound! I'm like her when I get wound up and excited about things.
Then I take an anxiety pill and in half an hour I get calm again.
My two favorite people. The song Garth sang If Tomorrow Never Comes just brought gushing tears. I lost my husband December 12, 2016 after fifty years together and He showed me every single day how much he loved me and how much I meant to him. Those memories is what gets me through each day. It was meant for me to hear this dong today. Thank you and Kelly.
Gail Novack
Kelly we love ya girl 💕 Garth is so down to earth...2 great friends sharing a moment ❤
I love how Garth just listened to her
This girl may have gone unnoticed if it wasn't for American Idol. Just think of the talent and that voice may never have happened. One of the most talented singers today.
Kelly is right about " The Dance" . It is still helping me with the lost of my daughter. So thank to you Garth for your song and thank you Kelly for sharing this with your fans. Kelly we have so much in common. I also cry on certain songs on the voice..
Sorry for the lost of your daughter and I’m glad the song touched your soul. I also appreciate all the love and support God bless you💯❤️
I will love to surprise you, how long have you been a fan of mine for mine?
How do you not love Kelly?! She is so relatable❤️
@@gp. in sorry you had that experience. Everyone has a bad day so I hope you don’t base your opinion off of one experience
I’m with her 100%.. that song was a constant for me after the end of a 10 year relationship. Those words comforted me so much
I remember Garth’s music got me through my cancer when I was younger! Love his music!!!! I wish I was able to see him live!!!!!
Kelly, divorce is so many layers of grief and many people don’t realize this. Once YOU go through it, you do. It isn’t easy and you are right, you have to work through all the stages of grief... God bless you Kelly. It will be ok.
TWO BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE INSIDE AND OUT!!!
This interview and her honesty and their connection makes her performance at the Kennedy Center Honours of this song even more impactful ❤️
Looking forward for that new album!! 🙌🏼❤🙌🏼
Mr.Brooks is so knowledgeable about music. This was an enjoyable show
My dad and I danced to The Dance when I was a little girl when I spent the summer with him. We have danced together a few times since then of course but that is one ill never forget :-)
Kelly I love you! And I love your transparency! ❤️❤️❤️
My son died of cancer in his 40's. It was one of his favorite songs til the end. I heard Kelly sing it at the kennedy center honors and just cried.
I am so sorry. These things scare me so much. I have a family, two parents and two brothers
This song does hit you in so many changes we go thru in our lives good n bad
@sharon I will love to surprise you, how long have you been a fan of mine??
My absolute favorite ever song by Mr. Brooks, and damn Kelly... I never looked at the song that way. I just loved the flow and beauty of it. Thank you for making my favorite Garth song just mean oh that much more! 👍👍👍
I’m so glad I’m not the only one who sang my heart out to The Dance as a kid then the meaning and weight of the song finally hit me in adulthood, holy emotions 🥺♥️
😊😊😊
Thanks Jenna I really I appreciate all the love and support GOD bless you abundantly 💯❤️
I will love to surprise you, at least to put a smile on your face. How long have you been a fan of mine??
The power of music and why we must continue to create it.
I love this interview. I love when Blake is on the show too!!!!❤️❤️🙏❤️🙏
Next album will be 🔥
Stay strong kelly
Dont give ur ex a dime!!! Fight girl!!!
We support you Kelly always xxx
You are awesome!!!! God bless you and your family and band as well!!!! Thank you for everything!!!
I will love to surprise you, how long have you been a fan of mine Marie??
Kelly & Garth.. 2 of my all time favourite country artists
You can do it Kelly, I am one of you, I love you, you are beautiful inside out, god bless you with your family love love love and peace 🍷🍷
Wow Kelly so open and honest and real! No one like her in the industry.
The Dance - this song is on my IPod and is one of the many songs that I listened to while trying to honor my son who died while serving our country. This IPod I listened to while training for the Rock N Roll 1/2 Marathon in Savannah, GA in 2005 and every time "The Dance" played I would get a renewed sense of purpose and felt like my boy was closer to me. I have been a fan of Garth Brooks since his early days and love all of his songs but this one has a whole new meaning to me. I would love to meet Garth and Tricia (big fan of Tricia too) one day as well as you Kelly! Love your show!
@@gp. I have learned over the years that if I don't have anything nice to say then I keep my thoughts to myself.
Best song ever. The dance
Who came back here, because Kelly clarified that the song title in her new album she was talking about is actually "Rock Hudson" and not "Raw Cuts". hahaha
I lost my wonderful son in 1991. He was only 20 yrs. old. “ The Dance “ by Garth is unbelievable. I listen to it a lot Garth has been blessed from God. His voice and songs are great. My second Elvis Presley. God bless Garth and Thank you❤❤❤❤❤❤
I was glad to come across this interview because I was going thru exactly the same thing Kelly was going thru after 35 years of marriage. And this song was that turning point for me as well. I was able to consider all the incredible opportunities I'd had that many don't get to experience such as living, working, studying and traveling abroad; taking cruises. And we remain in contact. The song made me realize how truly blessed I'd been. It's difficult to explain, but the it was like a switch light that took me from the darkness of just putting one foot in front of the other to the light of beginning of feeling content and making plans concerning my future. So yeah, I realized the pain of the divorce was much more short lived (though still took about 3 years to get over) than the years of opportunities I had when I was married. I will be forever grateful for The Dance.
I’m glad you came across this for your soul and I happy it made a change too. How long have you been a fan of mine??
The song the dance got me through the death of my boyfriend as well as my mo through the death of my father and we just sob everytime we hear it
I get it. Garth Brooks was my Dad’s absolute favorite growing up. My dad passed at 40 of colon cancer and it wasn’t until I became more of an adult the true meaning of this song. Even with it being played at his wake it still took me years to actually appreciate it for what it’s meant to be
You got this girl you are strong and situations in this world tests your faith, your beliefs but God is on your side. You're such an inspiration to so many.
OMG, I love that song already!!! 😍😍😍😍
Kelly's song The people like us has touched me in a similar way....the damned, lost and forgotten
This next album will definitely be life changing!
That is true Kelly! I totally get what you're saying. You've heard a song sooo many times, but suddenly THAT time made all the difference! My life hasn't been easy, but music feeds my soul! You sang a few lyrics and I was like "No wIt! Don't Stop! Teaser!" Can't Wait!
Thank you so much I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤️
Garth gets me through everything, the dance and shes every woman, come to Vancouver Garth
Wow that was very moving from someone who has gone through divorce and never thought I would have to experience that....
This is literally my most FAVORITE SONG of ALL TIME EVER.....by any one in any genre in and decade. It’s precisely how I feel about my entire life. And every word is true. Had immense pain and even more incredible “dances”. This song has helped me and saved me countless times.
I will really love to surprise you at least to put a smile on your face. So how long have you been a fan of mine??
We really need this piece from your life puzzle, Kelly. When is it coming out?
Love Garth Brooks
Sometimes people are HAPPY with a divorce too, even the children.
That’s so true, Danni. Sometimes the ‘broken home’ is the one that stays together and continues to wound each other. Two separate, happy homes are far better than one mess.
I couldn’t agree with you and Leanne more. My parents stayed together until I was 17, and honestly it was very bad. They argued a lot, my mom was depressed, my dad spent as much time away as he could, and they both ended up cheating. It was not a good example for myself or my sister, and we would have been better off if they both had someone they were actually happy with and loved.
That is very true. Sometimes a marriage doesn’t last and it wasn’t because it was bad. Life changes and people change and grow. With that you realize that the other person you wanted to be with forever really isn’t that person. And then other times it’s because the marriage was not going well. And when it ends it’s a sigh of relief.
Good grief is her publicist posting all this nonsense so people will feel sorry for her? Newsflash Kelly: you're not the first person to get divorced.
@@mrsj1417
Her fans believe they know her AND like her, because we watch her, and listen to her.
Kind of like a 'good friend' is getting a divorce. How would YOU handle a divorce, if it was your best friend?
Hopefully, you wouldn't make such a crass comment to your best friend.
I don't think her fans are 'feeling sorry' for her...we are grieving with her.
Kelly values a husband and family. She has said that was her dream, before she even got married.
She just got scammed by a charming man she thought loved her...most of us have, and that's a double betrayal.
Her best friend and her husband, assuming her husband was her best friend.
And, yes, she's not the first person to get a divorce and she won't be the last.
However, she is our 'celebrity friend' and we want to know hows she's doing...nothing wrong with that.
I doubt her publicist is making her talk 'such nonsense'.
She's most likely letting her fans know what going on because millions of them are writing to her with their condolences. Her marriage has died. It's painful for most couples.
And, "newsflash" mrs. J...you're not the first person to post such a RUDE comment, and sadly, you won't be the last.
The Dance is definitely my life! ❤❤❤❤
This is fun stuff. NEAT stuff. I like that
0:59 my gosh! 😍😍😍😍
I live Garth and Kelly!
The Dance is my Anthem
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE GARTH BROOKS HE IS THE GREATEST ARTIST OF ALL TIME HIM AND TUPAC 1 AND 1 GOD BLESS
I felt the same way about my abusive relationship as well. I have healed and am continuing to work through the trauma. However, I also was gifted a dynamite soulful daughter as a result. And so I change the lyrics a tad in my karaoke version to fit my story specifically, and it has healed me too. Bless this song, Garth and Kelly.
Anyone want a jazz album from Kelly. The little part of a new song she did. Girl, you & Mariah....jazz album from each of you & a duet plz.
The little part she sang was pretty basic. Let's leave proper Jazz to the likes of Sergio Mendes and the like. She knows her lane.
Yes Kelly might be a pop artist but she would do great doing a country album.
Kelly. Carson. I Love. Your. Song,s but. The song from Movie Goss . Was. Fantastic. Just. It’s my best and You sang it Well. Thank You 💜💜💜🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺.
This song got me through the loss of the only person who was a positive male figure in my life. He was en elder I took care and before I knew it he and his two daughters became a family to me.
@valenzuela I’ve been at that state before and I know how it feels but at least am glad the song touched your soul and honestly I appreciate all the love and support💯❤️
I will really love to surprise you, so how long have you been a fan of mine Dear??
My dad told me that he wants The Dance to play at his funeral. He isn't gone but that song just kills me though.
Thank you so much I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤️
I have seen Kelly perform live a few times and have never been disappointed, she is incredibly talented. I can't wait for the new album now! Oh how I wish the day will come that I can see Garth Brooks perform live. I have tried, numerous times but his concerts always sell out so dang fast!
Where’s this song in the new album?😢
I was waiting for it
Yes, I can see that.. it clicked and became personal.. *sigh* life.. can be on the tuff sometimes.
Omg Kelly can TALK!
Keep featherin it Garth
I would like to know about Kelly's sweater on this program. It caught my eye. Does anyone have a clue??? Thx
On my sons last New Year’s Eve with us, he heard “The Dance” come on and he said “don’t be sad Mommy. I’ll dance with you.” He passed away the next month.
I'm sorry for your loss but I'm sure that your son is always there with you . Sending you a hug
She’s so real… and I adore her. And I am sure that meant a lot to Mr. Brooks.
wow❤️🥺
#BasementyardPodcast
Kelly-These fellas love you so much. Please watch their last CZcams video!!!!! They want a signed photo of you to hang on the set 🤩♥️
Who, after being lucky enough to land this gem of a woman, would ever let her go?
I had a song, that I’d listened to for about a decade, all of a sudden hit me like that. I started ugly crying right then and there. 😭 Problem was I was driving at the time. I almost crashed my car because my tears were obscuring my view of the road in front of me. Luckily I made it home safely. Nobody was injured, no property damaged. 👍👍
Most great music is inspired by real life events. And sooner or later a song will come along or come home around. That will express and help explain the emotions we have or are going through. The Dance / Piece by Piece are a couple of these songs .
Amen sista 🙏
Omg I couldn't keep up 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 love her !!
I will love to surprise you, how long have you been a fan of mine Sonya??
@@JohnnyDepp-mz5un you're fake ..I don't understand why people do what you do with these fake accounts.. please explain what you get out of it . The thing is I know Garth Brooks for over 20 yrs he is actually a friend of mine and Trish..
@@sonyadempsey5154 I did set up this channel recently so I can reach out to all my fans that has been supporting me because they’re the ones that brought me this far but no you’re here calling me fake😞
Kelly singing The Dance for Garth at The Kennedy Center was one of my favorite live performances of my life. It was perfect. Just brilliant.
She did so prefectly. Love it
Yes, it was beautiful
Loved it.
I absolutely loved it! And his reaction was even better!!
💯 it was a performance of unabated respect & uninhibited understanding, in the rawest, truest & most blissful, soul altering way……this did more than justice to Garth’s song, it added to it…. we know this because his reaction told us so (as did Trisha’s) 🙏 Kelly Clarkson ❤️
