It's frustrating how judges don't take sibling partners seriously and only look for romantic/sexual chemistry. Not everything is about those things; sometimes the most beautiful moments are between family.
Exactly
yea, especially when this performance was honestly robbed of silver just because they're siblings
If I were a judge, I'd judge on their bond in general, not only in a romantic way.
So that's why this is so original and interesting! I know nothing about ice skating I just enjoy watching performances but I tend to avoid doubles because to my uneducated eye every dance seems the same. Being siblings this just couldn't be the same and it was so refreshing.
@@anavelandrews9373 Thought they gave out an amazing performance I think it's a stretch to say they were robbed of silver, the French couple fully deserved it
they look like 2 friends having fun and i find that very refreshing of the more classical romance narrative
You rarely see siblings compete in the couples division, so it is a nice change of pace :D
exactly, I love that
@@melodyfussell829 I agree . And it's no rule that it has to be representative of a relationship, only that its man and woman Most ice dancers or pairs skaters are just friends anyway! They bring a different dynamic. This is good
They are siblings
Can you imagine how incredible it must feel to have so much trust in someone and be so in sync that you can do a performance like that - I canât BELIEVE they only got bronze, that performance was FLAWLESS.
I agree!!! Not only was that flawless but that was the MOST moving performance!! TEARS!
I don't think they lost because they were bad, but rather that gold and silver were too good
Technically flawless, but lacking some kind of artistry... To me they look like two (extremely talented) kids playing on the ice.
That too on ice !!!
Trueee
i don't know why they got bronze, that was a flawless dance with no mistakes. Even they knew it at the end.
Actually they messed up a few times but they were minor mistakes
WOWsie ! Can you tell me where?
1:17-1:18
music loversaxgirl right?! Their inside outside edge look good at that time stamp, and equidistant
Because.... 0
Their Twizzles is one of the best in the business. That always got me a goosebumps, so beautiful
So agreed. Sheer synchronization while sacrificing not the least bit of intricacy! Exactly why I love watching Shibsibs soooooooo much. (Personally speaking, feel so sad when they end up bronze, they deserve better, but VM and PC are simply marvelous as well ...... Love them all & so much pain hhh)
@@jiawenm.6299 Right! And i really love their chemistry and music choice that really matched with them. They really portrayed the feelings from the song into their moves and deliver those emotion into audience (one of them is me). I think overall they deserve to be in the podium, i want them to win too, but watching VM and PC's performances are remarkable. What they did to me are Perfect! Love them too, those 3 ice dancers are my favorites lol
yess I always get goosebumps too at that part
The fact that theyâre siblings makes this a million times better!
this was one of the most beautiful performances. the amount of emotion in the end :,)
favourite part: her knee-slide on ice and effortless jump with SO much trust and faith. 3:50-3:58
That JUMP THO she didn't even have to look
I can only dream of that amount of trust
Aliyah Higurashi she once said that if she have to trust anyone on a dangerous lift, it will be Alex đ
That's the beauty of the movement. It signifies the trust there was in order to achieve such a beautiful ending.
Aliyah Higurashi me to
This dance holds so much meaning. Look at how Alex always places his hand on his sister's back, supporting her. Look at that move where she "falls" on her knees and he helps her back up again. Look at their mirrored movements, signifying their teamwork. Look at their expressions. Combine that with the song and you really get the emotions of an older brother wanting the world for his sister. You can just feel how much this performance meant to them.
ĐĐ° Ń ŃŃ ŃŃĐŽ гаĐčŃ Đ°ĐŒŃОгŃĐ°Đč
his Sister??
@@mayssounemohamed9810 They're siblings!! Maia Shibutani and Alex Shibutani
I'm kinda envy their relationship as good siblings. While here I am in the middle of fight with my brother.
Same. We beat each other up everyday.
i wonder how they dont fight
Me and my sister have a good relationship we even have siblings necklaces.
Bro me and my brother don't even talk to each other
@@Shirokuruse That's sweet. Hold on to that relationship.
Wow this choreography feels so...pure. so innocent and wholesome yet breathtaking. It's like seeing two children energetically play together in the most elegant way possible. They guide each other like a child pulling their friend along and saying "hey! Look at this!! Isn't it cool!". They feel so curious and full of life. Truly a wonderful performance.
In the Olympics, itâs not hard to find a technically perfect performance, so seeing someone so obviously having fun on the ice is actually rarer on this stage. But the Shibutanis did both without dropping the ball in the slightest. You can just feel all the love and effort coming out, and it makes it a joy to watch.
In my opinion, the Shibsibs were definitely robbed of the silver medal they truly deserved. Their finesse in twizles and step sequences was exceptional. The Shibsibs are sibling goals đđ
They were amazing, but they didn't out skate silver. In fact the score difference between the bronze and silver was over 10 points. The french team beat the world record for free dance and only lost the gold because moir and virtue scored higher in the short dance.
@@live_unafraid47 absolutely and yet people still say that shibs were better
I refuse to forgive the judges for giving them a bronze because they were siblings. They outskated other couples with their chemistry but to see y'all prefer stupid love plotlines over just good skating without a plot is beyond me.
Yeah they absolutely skate so well
Stop lying. They didn't outskate Virtue and Moir.
@@anthyavila9726 They might be referring to silver. (I havenât seen it, but that seems to be the popular opinion)
Lol nobody was going to come close to the Canadian and French teams. it was a fight for Bronze.
@@artsticals Yes I meant for the silver. Virtue and Moir are legends no denying I just hated the fact they got Bronze.
I feel like this was one of the only routines with so much passion and feeling to it. None of the others had that. They took songs from their past best performances (Sochi 2014 I believe...I may be wrong, feel free to correct me), and that made it beautiful and unique. That represented where they came from; it represented how they grew to be such beautiful, graceful, hardworking athletes. They really were robbed of silver and gold tbh. This was one of the most tear-jerking, mindblowing performances that I have ever seen.
I felt the passion in the gold performance, but silver felt really boring to me
@@crescentsky8920 The judges were biased
The judges were biased due to this being a Sibling pairing. Ridiculous how they can ignore such family chemistry just because itâs not the stereotypical love story trope most pairings use... đ
No. Virtue and Moir deserved gold.
@@anthyavila9726 this is ice dancing idiot
You can see the passion through their skating and such natural flow and coordination which is why theyâve come such a long way
Finally it has full version on youtube
still one of the prettiest dances i've ever seen, the shibutani's never disappoint
Imagine, being able to pursue your dream with your sibling, and best friend. They're so lucky, they've been through so many hardships together, and they're going strong and standing by each other. I hope Maia gets better soon! And I know Alex will be there for her through it all. â€ïž
Hey I know them, the ShibSibs they're one of my favourite athletes ever and they have a channel too. They're totally amazing! đđ
What's the channel?? :)
Just Shib Sibs
The REAL 2018 Silver medalists đżđđœ
YESS!!!
It's been four years but this duo, this masterpiece will remain as the best ICE DANCERS and ICE DANCE for međđ„
I miss them so much
i never enjoyed this much a pair program, really. it wasnt about the scores or the figures and movements required by the program itself but just dance. it was (and still is) about them and the music and they fit so well in it. this is the first time i never looked at the scores or paid too much attention on how their blades were on the ice and that kind of stuff. i just watched them. i loved it. they're so talented, but i never experienced such a joy in just watching, without the technical part or without thinking that this is a championship and there are scores and things thwy have to do. i'm repesting myself a little but this is so amazing. i never felt this way for a program. i loved it so much. it didnt even felt like a program, the elements came up just natural, not forced at all. they're amazing
I don't know why, but I love the fact that they are brothers and sisters. I like this, this is cuteđ
They were robbed of silver
Gabrielle Asiegbunam did they get bronze?
@@nou174
Yes they did at least
Sally Vee they should have won silver because the French pair should have won gold. The Canadians didnât belong there and were and are overrated.
@@Jude74 V/M at least skated both their programs clean...
Jude74 theyâll get their chance. Virtue and Moir will retire very soon
1:23 my gosh I canât stop replaying that perfect spin đ ice dancing is so beautiful
I still come back to this performance to remind myself how beautiful it is when you get to share these kinds of special moments with your sibling. The ShibSibs will always have a place in my heart for being one of the best dance teams on ice while overcoming obstacles, and I just love their warm personality! My FAVORITE program they ever did, and one of my top ones of all time!
It honestly made so emotional to see the bond between them, the trust and faith they have in each other is outstanding, how they flowed together like one unit and how passionate they were about the routine , they knew the next move by heart like they were reading each other minds, I didnât see any openings for mistakes they knew precisely what was needed and they delivered ,and I donât think that would have been possible without them being siblings and amazing bond between them .
Oh I've been waiting since the games for this to be uploaded. Thank you for uploading this! God. I'm emotional again. What an incredible routine. Deserving of the silver, not the bronze imo. But. Such glorious glorious skating and choreo and footwork and omg I'm never going to be over this Olympics.
Anindita Bandyopadhyay I literally feel the exact same way!!
Anindita Bandyopadhyay it's sad that they are sometimes underscored for being siblings T^T
@@jingfangzhao3300 agreed! There's beauty in sibling dance teams and the non sibling teams as well, the way they highlight the joy of the dance. Sad that judges don't typically see it that way.
Anindita Bandyopadhyay
Actually they deserved gold. It was flawless and no part of their routine was boring, unlike the others.
@@jesieechon730 i disagree, i think virtue and moir deserved gold
Most emotionally-moving ice dance program this season... I was already crying halfway through. Love them so much. You can see their love for the sport in every single gesture.
2:58 Was absolutely flawless. They were magnificent. It's amazing how much they trust one another.
Their performance is not only lively and elegant, but it's a bubbly type of liveliness and elegance too, I LOVE IT
2:30 and onwards was absolute PERFECTION
2:56 - 3:05 JAWDROPPING
gosh you could really feel the joy and love in their dance
One of the most beautiful ice dance programs for me, second only to Fix You a couple of years earlier.
Huge thanks for uploading the video here, this was a beautiful performance! What a great performance to come back to time and time again.
This has made me realise once again how much I miss them this season!!
Thanks for the reco. I cried during their fix you
This whole performance was absolute perfection. All of it is amazing, but the first part, up to 1:30 specifically makes me gasp. The immaculate timing, seamless flowing movement and profound artistry and storytelling in that section was worth the gold in my mind. Iâve seen the gold winning performance and it is spectacular, but to me, it falls flat in the artistic interpretation of the music - they keep moving so quickly and trying to fit in a thousand complicated and impressive steps even when the music slows down and the piece would have seemed to call for more flowing, graceful movements. Alex and Maia flawlessly interpreted the music here and still performed all the steps perfectly. In my mind, exceptional athletes push themselves to do everything that can physically be done; but exceptional artists know that just because something can be done, doesnât mean it should - they know when and how to move with the music and they BECOME the piece they are performing. Alex and Maia are legendary artists.
If this got bronze I can't imagine how silver and gold were like because this is amazing. REACT channel brought me to this
ncode03 Yeah they definitely deserved silver. But you should watch the gold medal performance. Itâs really amazing and beautiful.
I recommend watching the silver and gold as well. This was a tight competition certainly but the French and the Canadians have consistently been the top 2 teams in the world, each of them getting a world record while here. Ice dance is definitely the hardest to understand the scoring because it all looks so good, and I think Gabrielle and Guillaume were probably a little overscored in the short dance, but their free program was fantastic, as were both programs by Tessa and Scott. That being said, Weaver and Poje of Canada are actually my favorite ice dancers overall.
Also, if you like Maia and Alex, you should check out their programs from 2016-17 season, they were also fantastic.
Yes I watched silver and gold. Gold is definitely deserved yes I agree, I think bronze looks better than silver performance but then again I don't know anything about ice skating haha
Omg Look up Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir (Gold winner) it was gorgeous!!! Sorry...proud Canadian ahaha :)
Tessa ad Scott definitely deserved gold but the Sibs were robbed of silver.
After three years this performance has a deep place in my heart, the fact that this performance made me get into ice skating is just magnificent
It is true art, the expressions in their face and the emotions at the end is just marvelous and mesmerizing
I just can't describe this enough in words
2:57 -3:04 is so amazing omg
I remember watching this live and immediately set it to record to show my wife the next day. Something about this with them made me happy in my mind and I felt that it needed to be shared. Great performance and a great way to get an Olympic medal.
I mean I am a complete sucker for all things Coldplay, so this program from the ShibSibs and Adam Rippon's free skate were basically everything I could ever want ever. "O" is probably my favorite song. Not just Coldplay, favorite song period.
MC Wyman the shibs also did an amazing exhibition performance to âOâ in 2015! Itâs what sparked their new style of ice dance, you should check it out!!
Bell...I agree! It's beautiful. The NBC Sports version got taken down, probably because of copyright. Luckily someone posted a private-video version on here. In my opinion, Adam and the Shibs now "own" O. No one should even try to use this music. Won't compare.
idk if you watch their Fix You free program, imo thats their best performance
Then Untamed...oh yeah...that 2016 World's performance is spectacular and special. When the crowd went crazy after their twizzles...it sent the whole thing to a new level.
Do you know the song name they danced to? The mix?
This literally was phenomenal and its better that theyre family... makes the music that much better
I am shocked to learn that they only got a bronze! I couldnât take my eyes off of that performance! It was so smooth, unique, and the bond was illustrated beautifully. Oh my gosh. Iâm wowed.
Their synchronization is insane & I love their song choicesđ
The thing that really stands out to me is the joy and completeness they radiate. It gives me complete goosebumps watching them fly across that ice, fully trusting each other and letting go of everything while hearing Coldplay chanting paradise in the background. They genuinely showed us their paradise. Thank you for this masterpiece.
The hug at the end...This program will always give me goosebumps, especially the last minute and a half of the performance. I do agree Tessa and Scott deserved the gold, but their program didn't give me goosebumps. It's all down to them, I can *feel * their joy of dancing, like she says. They were silver for me, but at this level it's almost a matter of tiny technical points. The french team had an amazing SP though, but the Shibs definitely owned them on the free dance. Off to watch again because why not. :D Thanks for uploading this one!
A masterpiece. In love with this free dance. So powerful and so emotional â€
Olympic channel delivers! Thank you so much đđđđđ
This brother and sister duo are awesome! Had an opportunity to meet one of the sibs not too long ago. Hope to see both siblings in the next Winter Olympics! Rooting for them!
their footwork is so clean and the chemistry and trust between them is magical.
2:30-2:45 is so incredibly amazing, like wow. And I love how you see Alex be overcome with such emotion after their inspiring performance at 4:19, it's hard not to be moved by that aside from their performance honestly.
Missing the shibsibs during the 2022 winter olympics but I'm wishing the best for them and hope Maia is feeling better.
My jaw is still dropped and my mind is blown at how what i jjst watched is even possible
This is a beautiful sport in a catagory of its own and this duo is absolutely insane
I can't get tired of watching this.. I think this is one of the best..no THIS is is one of the best figure skating i've ever seenđ
I miss them so much
I really love Shibutani siblingsâ€
USA is in love with these two. They are so so charming.
Their twizzle sequences always sends a shiver down my spine.
Iâve rewatched this performance so many times. Itâs beautiful
The joy in their eyes is everything
What I love about this pair the most is they remind me that ice skating isnât just a graceful and difficult sport - itâs fun too! They look like theyâre having so much fun.
the pure emotion on their faces.... theyâre doing this not for the competition but for the their passion ..... still strikes me with awe even two years later. my favorite program in ice dance of all time. so terribly underscored and thatâs such a shame :(
Thank you so much for uploading this! Maia and Alex deserve it â€ïž
Omg finally, Iâve waited so long for this
Thank you!!! Favorite Olympic performance đ. I miss them. I'm impatiently waiting for their return
4 yrs later and I still get chills watching this
The audience be enjoying an experience of a lifetime.
It really was a glimpse of paradise. I miss them this season
uknowilove there not skating this season?
@@maylily820 yeah, sadly
This is the most inspirational thing I have ever seen I watch it once a week :â)
theyâre just so so amazingly peerffecct i canât stop rewatching them !! đąđđđđ
For me it's so amazing to see siblings perform such a beautiful routine that shows how they are to each other because me and my brother would NEVER do something like that ahah
can we talk about how the emotions kept building up towards the end of the song? so beautifulđ
They deserve silver instead of bronze
@F. Santos period
It looks so effortless and elegant ugh I love figure skating
No matter how many times I come back they always give me goosebumps, i love these two
almost four years later and i still get chills watching this video
2:18 my favorite part
I'm emotional while watching the video. I could see the story they're trying to give with their performance. It's a perfection! đ
the smile at the beginning...they energy is so powerful and this video is so deep to me.they face is all the time smiling and Iâm watching this video three times at the day.they are so beautiful đ„șđ
This is by far my favourite performance! I love everything about it! Itâs so joyful and so emotional. This is perfect.
Itâs 2020 and this performance was still the gold medal winner to me. Look at those lifts. Absolutely stunning. Wonderful song choice - so hard and tricky to pick music with lyrics in skating but this was wonderful.
Never. Tessa and Scott deserved the gold!
Still to this day I still think this should have won gold.
This is my favorite program from the shib sibs. Itâs so beautiful and inspiring, I watch it whenever Iâm unmotivated to skate, it helps me pick myself up âžâžâ€ïž
Bruhhh this made me feel things honestly they deserved silver.
Dare I say I still think they have better twizzles than ANYONE in the game, including Scott and Tessa? Theyâre just so clean they give you chills. I just keep coming back to watch this and I get emotional every time.
One of my all time favorite Olympic performances to watch, just makes me happy. I think about Maia and Alex's ice dance when I hear "Paradise". It's a joy to see it again here!
They are by far my favorite ice dancing, especially with this song, it's just so smooth and perfect with their performance. â€ïž
Had to watch this twice in a row, this filled me with joy and was absolutely breathtaking.
Wow, what an absolutely beautiful performance! The song choice and the amount of difficulty that went into this- wow. Mixing Paradise with Fix You is such a wonderful choice!
FINALLY!!!!! This is the best BEST Deepavali gift!!!!
I was just thinking about this.. aww.. I really really wanted to watch this.. I miss the Shibutanis~

Iâve watched this so many times and each time I find some new element to be amazed by. This is one of the most magical performances Iâve seen â€ïž
Thank you thank you thank you!!! I have been waiting forever!!
A friend of mine was like that looks easy to do. I laughed so hard I got kicked out of class.đŹđ
My dad said that too during this performance until he saw their amazingly in sync twizzles during slow motion playback, and said nevermind. LOL
i watch this performance when i am overwhelmed or need motivation, and i have my final graduation exam in two days. i nearly crited at the end, thank you so much shibshibs
its my first time watching them, this performance made me cry
i love the sibling relationship and how it blended in the story they were performing, its beautiful
I was there in the stadium and I was so moved by their performance. The song "Paradise" and their dance synchronized perfectly on the ice. Beautiful.
FINALLY ABOUT TIME THIS WAS POSTED ON YOUTube. Iâve contacted every NBC Olympic channel and network about this. Wrote a letter for each one
Imagine how proud their parents must be of them
This is one of the most beautiful, emotional, and pure performances Iâve seen anywhere.
They were so synchronised and beautiful. The flow of each steps were amazing.
