He was a fine compulsory figure skater (something that is a lost art), and he could do the hardest jumps competed at the time. The short & free skates were longer back then, too - he finished first or second in them. He landed almost every jump on the beat of the music, and I have never seen anyone so in touch with the music. I miss him, terribly.

I think Johnny Weir is a celebrity. I think he deserves the acclaim too. But movie stars work very hard for their money. Acting is not a talent most people possess. Most actors spend years honing their talent. Ask anyone who works on a movie set how hard everyone is working (including the actors). You are just jealous of other people's success. You are right in thinking some actors have messy personal lives but so do lots of average people.

I saw this live and loved it. Still loving this performance 18 years later. This program was perfect. The music suited him and he looked relaxed and sure of himself. His hand placement when finishing the jumps was just exquisite. I love his commentary, but really miss his skating. ❤
Such beautiful lines, he always puts his whole heart into his performance ❤
This is beautiful in every way I can think of. Johnny brings beauty to the world. Such a talented, lovely man. When something gets me down, he makes me smile.

I feel the same way about Scott Hamilton.
I love how so early in his career, he still shows the same style he has now. Or a lot of it. He completely deserved the National Title.
This is one of the most beautiful LP's I've ever seen. It has stuck with me all this time. when i feel kind of down, I come watch it.

Same here!
He had it six years ago and he still has it now. I still can't believe he didn't get on the podium... Sigh! Still love him though, and he skated so beautifully in Vancouver.
Haven't watched skating in forever and came across 2! Sooo flawless and makes it look so effortless...like he invented ice skating. And his jumps!!! Wow!
Johnny, you are exceptionally talented. You are a joy to watch, especially for those of us who feel "different" and may have suffered for it. You are a fine role model with your perseverence, tenacity and superb skating technique. May your skating career continue to widen, although you sadly didn't get the Gold Medal you deserved at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics. There's alot of hate and jealousy, but you have such class; you rise above all the pettiness, You've uceeeded-you've the Gold in my book
Brought tears to my eyes! So beautiful, athletic and so graceful. 😍💙🙆🏻♂️🦋✨
i just kept watching the ending because it is so beautiful! I was so proud of him and i still am. :)
Pure Magic !
Yes only a triple.....I loved this program, the music, the artistry.....the guts you brought to it! Memorable.

wow so weird seeing "10 years ago"
Stunning performance now in 2020! Artistic expression is awesome
He was always one of my favourites. Still as happy today as I was then when he won:))
Johnny Weir, you have a fan in me! Your personality, your zest for life, your candor, your sensitivity, and, of course, your skating ability - all adds up to one terrific fella! Bravo! It was awesome seeing you win first place. Good for you! I miss seeing you skate these days, but I’m sure you still are enjoying life. ❤️🙏
He must have been so young here . kind of makes me sad in a way he still seems so young Super gifted and understands the dance sport completely

Absolutely right. His 2005 Long program at Nationals was stunning too.
Beautiful !!! Thank you !!!After all these you are still one of the best. 🤗
Skating comes so naturally for him. He's so graceful and smooth on the ice. A beautiful performance!
Johnny rocks! That was incredible!
for those who miss the grace and the actual dancing johnny weir is doing here i have 2 words: yuzuru hanyu. his skating is a perfection of grace, fluidity and style (never mind the death-defying jumps and such. they seem more icing on the cake that is the sheer beauty of his performances.)
Eu amava assistir patinaçao no gelo somente por causa do Jhonny weir, que saudade!
I love the way he lands ,
Absolutely beautiful and amazing!
His triple axel was his best and most consistent jump🤩 But that triple loop landing right on the accent of the music is to die for.
Браво, Джонни! Ты был самым артистичным и самым пластичным фигуристом! Ты был лучшим! Смотреть на твое выступление - удовольствие!

Людмила Морозова, почему это был? Джонни и сейчас точно такой же. Он всегда на первом месте, он лучше всех! Никто так не катается как Джонни, всем до него, ох как далеко. Джоник и сейчас катается, у него много выступлений! Он ангел на льду! Самый-самый лучший!!! И всегда будет!!!
Шикарный прокат, Джонни
Wow!! He's the Best skater!! Thank you for sharing!!
I was born the year this BEAUTIFUL program was performed and I’m proud to say that I was inspired by Johnny and other great skaters like him when I was very young and have been skating for 10 years now and Johnny continues to inspire me to this day!!! I just wanted to thank him for that because I want to go to the Olympics one day and if I do he will be responsible(^‿^✿)

Very graceful on the ice. I have always loved watching figure skating competitions for years. He is fantastic!!! Bravo!!! 🤩🤩🤩
Fabulous to watch again. Always gives me happiness to watch
He’s such a beautiful skater; I could watch him all day.
OMG, that was wonderful! Yeah Johnny! :D
Skates so beautiful, and unique best ever Love Johnny!
Gorgeous Absolutely & Beautiful Lasting Sound Track unto infinity^^ Xoxo
Beautiful skater just glides across the ice!
Johnny Weir is a beautiful skater who brings out the full spectrum of the sport. I love that I cannot take my eyes of the smooth coordinated flow he maintains. And now, he is one of the best commentators, reminding us of the jumps, difficulty and fluidity of the skaters! When he speaks, you listen and learn. Not only that, he connects the skaters past performances to allow you to understand the competition better. LOVE YOU JOHNNY!
He is gorgeous! Super elegant! Can’t believe , 15 years ago!
Beautiful job.
Woaooo cada vez me sompredes más que belleza es tu alma hermosa que resalta en una danza dulce, energía, elegante hermoso cisne volador surca los cielos gélidos dibuja notas con con tus esplendorosas alas y baila al son de tu corazón hermoso Ángel 🤗🤗🤗
He is gorgeous and talented.
Absolutely Magical!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Очень нравится этот фигурист. Как он артистичен, его номера это мини спектакли❤
Isn't KZread great! Someone must organize these clips of figure skating so they won't be lost. This just popped up as I scrolled through YT Very very very beautiful skate!!
Джонни бесподобный!!!!!!!!
I have no TV so didn't see any skating for years but because of KZread I fell in love with Yuzuru Hanyu. Now seeing this and a couple of other Johnny Weir videos I feel like Yuzuru must have learned a lot seeing Johnny. Am I wrong in thinking Johnny was a trailblazer in his elegance and expressive dancer like moves? So beautiful.
Great! 👍🏻Very beautiful! ❤️Bravo!!! 👏🌹⛸
Beautiful skating
Marvelous--unlike a lot of other male skaters, he's not a shrimp. That height gives him an extra beauty. Fabulous..
Oh god that made me so emotional he is like magic.
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼💫💫💫🌟🌟🌟🌟❤️❤️❤️Красавчик!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏
Absolutely stunning 😍
I wish Olympians were what we considered celebrities. We let some people get praise and fame just for being famous or sleeping around, and yet Olympians work their butts off all the time. They deserve to be treated as royally as some of our celebrities who have no right to be treated like anything but the trash they are.

I think Johnny Weir is a celebrity. I think he deserves the acclaim too. But movie stars work very hard for their money. Acting is not a talent most people possess. Most actors spend years honing their talent. Ask anyone who works on a movie set how hard everyone is working (including the actors). You are just jealous of other people's success. You are right in thinking some actors have messy personal lives but so do lots of average people.

... AMONG my favorite. He is so much fun.
Johnny really had lovely artistry.
I think John Curry was the one who changed skating for men. His musicality, artistry, combined with technical precision, and the most beautiful line. If he had wanted to do a quad I am sure he could have.
