Lyrics Looking back on the memory of The dance we shared 'neath the stars above For a moment all the world was right How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye? And now I'm glad I didn't know The way it all would end, the way it all would go Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain, but I'd have had to miss the dance Holding you, I held everything For a moment, wasn't I the king? But if I'd only known how the king would fall Hey, who's to say? You know I might have changed it all And now I'm glad I didn't know The way it all would end, the way it all would go Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain, but I'd have had to miss the dance Yes, my life is better left to chance I could have missed the pain, but I'd have had to miss the dance

Martina is the only one aside from Garth who could ever sing this song.

Martina is amazing. Garth wrote this and also gave Martina her chance. Sorry Garth, but Martina nails this like no one else !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I still prefer garth though. I can't imagine any one doing the chair other than George Strait. Or his many others. I always like the original song by the artist who I first heard sing it.

Wouldn't have Missed IT FOR THE WORLD. "THE DANCE" ONE DAY I HOPE WE WILL DO IT ALL AGAIN ❤️

Absolutely beautiful Martina McBride, you nailed it

Those eyes have gotten you into a lot of trouble!!!

She and Sarah Evans look and sound similar. Love this song..

she was singing it because she was honoring the last artist of the decade before George. just like if you see the Keith Urban video from this concert, he did some songs from Marty Robbins. another, artist of the decade

Thank you.

She did great

Thank you for this

What an amazing voice

To honor Garth when he won artist of the decade for the 90's.

I'm like hypnotized when she sings. Did not that song. She is a great singer and I hope to see her in concert one day. But I suppose it is necessary to go to the US for that ... Thanks uploader.

Martina nailed it. Martina's one of my favorite singers have a lot of her CD's. It's usually hard to beat the original, but Martina's right there and I'm proud to say she's from my state of Kansas

She is awesome !!! Nothing she can't sing

Our first dance was the Dance, I couldn't believe my luck....I still love her....

You gotta love Martina - her grace - her voice - perhaps even a bit underrated and for this song in particular - here's hoping that no one underestimates or overlooks the profound, lasting meaning of these lyrics.

Sweet Song Beautiful Martina.

Wow what a voice ...what a woman ...beautiful inside and out ...love her eyes

She sang this because Garth was the artist of the decade the previous decade.

This show was called the George Strait tribute, but they also paid tribute to other artists.

Kelly Clarkson ....next level

Am I the only person who keeps replaying the part of the song when she talks about feeling like a king and how the king would fall because it reminds them of some time in their own life?

Nailed it

Martina, you are an absolutely gorgeous lady with beautiful eyes, beautiful voice & beautiful smile. Just beautiful in every way. No one compares to you. Martina, you’re a doll with the voice of an angel. You are the greatest female singer ever.

Martina is so beautiful with a lovely voice.!!What a performer!!

I've been a recording steel guitarist for 30 years and I will tell you right now. That is OUTSTANDING delivery of emotion in song. That's how you do it...not the shit/crap way you hear in Nashville. Martina....you have it going on Gal. Ricky Davis

Beautiful Lady sings pretty as a Angel ..

Congradulation Martina her voice is so warm.

Has anyone else ever felt like a king just for a moment?

Martina McBride is one of my favorites. I play her CD's while driving almost any place I go. She the greatest in my book.

Bella donna, voce stupenda è il massimo della gioa.

Martina has the voice of an angel s beautiful too

It has been so long since, "All the world was right."

When she sings, she sounds like an angel!

Fist of five did it well but no one covered this better then the blue eyed angel Martina

Second to none👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

She's not a woman, but a "lady" & or a God given earth angel. I'm sure on her worst days; she's beautiful, in her own way.

God Bless you always :)))))))

this was one of the songs that was played at my nieces funeral 10 yrs ago she was stillborn jaiden aunt Gretchen loves and misses u so much baby girl

really superb wow J'adore

Martina, you are goddess!

Massive Martina Fan she did a beautiful version of garths song

for all the hard times we went thru, I would never have missed this dance with you and daddy My forever Love Missy

She should do this with ronan keating💓💓💓

I never thought I would say this, but I think she did this as good or better then Garth! Her conviction is unbelievable. Such a stunning, thrilling voice.

and i thought the garth brooks version of this song brought me to tears.. this version is just AWESOME

Martina is why i started listening to country music again. Her voice is just stunning

what an amazing version of a song that will stand the test of time and always be a gem!

Not only was she a great singer, she is also a very down to earth person. Got a chance to meet her in the early 90's and became a fan since. Love this version of the song!

This song says it all DJ.

One of my favorite songs by one of the best singers around.

And one more❤️

Only Martina could sing this besides Garth!

Justice Jackson...THIS IS A WOMAN!

i agree with you, you make much sense

Man, her eyes are something else

Had a dance, off and on 1986-2014, with frequent breakups and now it's over. This song says it all.

beautiful

Another ❤️

This song more perfectly than any song ever written, reminds all of us that everyone had some moment in his/her life when he/she felt like a king or queen if only for a moment.

You know, you are right, it was. It was awesome

Man Martina Mcbride sings this song better than garth brooks! u go Martina!!

Limitless talent. Funny how God pours so much into one being. It's great that they share it. Long Live Martina McB.

I’m glad I came across this, it's perfect.

Great performance great voice and Great human being martina mcbride is I'm a big fan of her music since the 90's

the look, the eyes, the hair, the voice, just awesome !

Along with Garth, this is a superb rendition of this song. If not the best. Absolutely fabulous !

Pure power!

Miss my friend .... so thankful I did not miss the dance! I will forever hold him in my heart!

I love Martina's Version of the song. Nice

by the look of her expression during the song she wanted to sing this song as did the audience and she didnt disappointed 1 bit wit this cover...very well done martina garth must of been speechless backstage when u sung this

She is singing it in honor of Garth because he was the Artist of the Decade in 2000, and he was about to pass the torch to George.

I haven`t heard it, but I`m not surprised. There are certain singers like her and Carrie Underwood who seem to be able to sing in any genre. Watch the video of Carrie singing with Tony Bennett. I saw Marina on a show singing with Pat Benatar, and she did excellent.

What a beautiful song by a beautiful lady.

She did a good job but nobody can seriously cover "The Dance" it's one of the greatest songs of all time. The instrumental at the end the 1st time I heard Garth was the best I have ever heard this song.

Martina is a very talented and classy lady!!!

GOD! She is a lady in my book of life! Love her makeup- not over kill; so very pretty. Her 'love ring' not overwhelming & bold; but delicate as she is. No gross long fingernails, but feminine & pretty. Her voice, reserve clothing- wow- she's a beautiful "Lady"!

She can sing anything!!! great job

So lovely and beautiful songs TheDance I love that song so MUCH thanks Martina McBride 👍❤

Wow, Martina nailed that song. What a fantastic rendition.

A sweet earth ANGEL.

What a great song!! But it's NOT from George Strait, but Garth Brooks!! :-) However, one of my favorites!

What a Blessed Country Angel Artists. God Bless her and w Family.

Wow Martina McBride wow

How i wish to see her performing live

Always my favorite lady in country music, only she could make this song just as beautiful as Garth's. If this song had been written for a woman, it would have been hers.

It is a beautiful song u singing I have allways love it

Magnifique, Superbe interprétation Félicitations Martina 👍👍🤗🤗🤗🥰🤓🇨🇵

cool song i love it

I don't listen to Martina Mcbride, but the eyes on this baby doll 🤔

BEAUTIFUL JOB MARTINA.....I LIKE GARTH, BUT THIS IS FROM A WOMAN'S POINT OF VIEW....I HAD THIS SONG PLAYED AT MY HUSBAND'S FUNERAL...

Hard to do that song justice, but she sure did.

When you can perform a Garth Brooks song better than him, it says a lot about you as a vocalist. She is so under-rated. She is still the best female vocalist in country music. Her conviction is almost tangible.

Stunning.

this woman is the musician's musician and what a captivating presence

hey martin. this song makes me think of you. wish we never say goodbye.

Beautiful love song sung so nicely by a beautiful country girl !!!

Garth brooks sings this song good but Martina does such a beautiful job at it I love the verson of the dance .
