I hate dancing! Yet, I comment here, not as a judge since I neither dance nor watch dancing or even care, so that is why it means even more that this dance to me is so mesmerizing that I watch it over and over! I don't know why it's attractive to me. Is it magical, hypnotic or concealing weaponized mind control technology from DARPA to perhaps distract enemies? This dance and no other is exclusively attractive to me and watching it I felt so lively and in high spirits that I was questioning if I really hate dancing, so I ever so briefly sampled watching other dancing with a resounding nope -- I do hate dancing! Yet, this dance is amazingly enjoyable. How is this possible! Now, as I type this, I have it in a nonstop loop enjoying it, yet I hate dancing!

Wonderful control and expression at all times. Her hip movements are really wonderful and they make the transitions between dance moves appear seamless.

This routine is amazing in so many ways. 1) The rendition/song by Travis Tritt (which has to be one of the most joyous versions of Honkey Tonk Women) is subtly edited to hit just the highest points....and the undeniable very American country swagger this version brings ...is perfect for the competition and dance. 2) They did this in Blue Jeans.....pause and think about that. 3) He is amazing in control, especially how he mixes latin moves with country-line. It is a testament to what makes something great - a balanced mix - I think he is from the Central Valley in California and studied dance in NYC... Perfect. 4) She hits every note to perfection and is the equal. Oh those amazing HIPS! They seem inseparable. I wish we could learn more about her performances. 5) Their combined look could not be more SEXY-BINGO. 6) The crowd in the background is THE best part - absolute BEST, because their joy is our joy.

The best dance routine that has ever been captured on film, up there with the recording of Eva Cassidy singing somewhere over the rainbow…

My favorite dance ever to watch! I wish I could dance again. I have lymphedema and can barely walk.

Jason's soul lives on through his true talent and love for the dancefloor. He played her like an instrument. RIP Jason.....I know the Angel's are loving you....♥️🌹

Hello 👋 Lorraine. How are you doing? Hope are you fine. I'm Zack Hudson and am from Denver Colorado, where are you from? You seem like a real country girl

This does not get old...I still cannot believe how good it 👏

It's like they were meant to dance together. I miss him so much. Every dance they did was right on time.. I can only imagine what they would have came up with , should he had still been with us

Must have played this 100 times and sorry I do not even know what Jason looks like. I cannot take my eyes off Katie. Sensational in every way!

I highly recommend you taking lessons to experience it yourself. I have been dancing this dance for 25 years. It totally becomes a huge part of your life after you get it grooving. So many magical moments. It helps if you are musical, but I have seen those who are not natural at it eventually become quite good. I was fortunate to see Jason and Katie dance at conventions many times. I remember so many of these moments over the years where you "surf" a huge wave of audience elation and it is such a high, like you see here in the background. Your face will hurt smiling so wide. I cannot remember if I was at this particular competition but I have been to many dance events with this level of enjoyment. This dance is spreading across the globe, catch the wave:)

Not only are the moves incredible, but it's the perfectly in-synch tempo changes that nail it. But that lift to the shoulder...omg, perfect AND original! Never saw that one before!

The first time I saw this I was mesmerized, I felt the same reactions as you had. I have never seen the over the shoulder lift like that. The song itself was interpreted very well with Jason's moves, his choreography and her ability to follow through AS WELL are totally in synch. SHE'S PERFECTLY SUBMISSIVE... with TOTAL TRUST IN HER PARTNER! The lift I think was inspired by the words "I took her upstairs" that's exactly when he lifts her and ....the next part involving the shoulders the are SIDE BY SIDE with linked shoulders NOT facing each other, FACING OPPOSITE WAYS but moving in unison the the music...just lovely ....how they move out of that position to smoothly move into her twirls like the perfect ballerina, so many turns with out panting or getting dizzy! JASON AND KATIE follow the beat and meaning of the song just perfectly! They have complete trust in each other. Katie is such a devoted and cooperative partner. Jason is so skilled and athletic that HE IS JUST THE PERFECT MALE LEAD DANCER here. I could go on but it's really hard to find the right words to do justice in describing the level of excellence viewed here in this CAPTIVATING DANCE ROUTINE. THANK YOU JASON AND KATIE! YOU GAVE YOUR ALL AND THIS DANCE LEAVES LASTING JOY IN ALL OF OUR HEARTS. THE JOY OF EXPRESSION THROUGH DANCE WAS TOTALLY FULFILLED IN YOUR EXQUISITE, RIVETING AND INTERESTING PERFORMANCE! SUPERB HERE MEANS FULFILLING THE BEST OF THE BEST EXPECTATIONS OF DOING JUSTICE TO A PIECE OF MUSIC.

So sad that he passed so early in life. Jason Colacino was born on August 20, 1977, and unfortunately passed away on August 9th, 2009 at just 31 years old. Jason suffered pneumonia and cardiac arrest and later it was discovered he had an enlarged heart.

Wonderful !! The whole thing reeks of hard work and joy. Thank you.

Best couples dance I've ever had the pleasure of enjoying. Their moves are absolutely astounding, and their timing together is impeccable. I can go on and on but I'm going to go back and watch it again
