You know that quote from Black Swan? "Perfection is not just about control. It's also about letting go". I've always found it a perfect summary of why I preferred Davis/White. Virtue and Moir were perfect, but for me they lacked this "letting go" factor.

No real reason to compare. I get you’re just stating what you see but they’re doing what works for them and the ability to “let go” doesn’t determine better quality skating. I know you didn’t explicitly say it’s better but it is definitely an undertone of what you’re trying to say, if it’s not then that’s fine, it is what it is either way

Davis and White even retiring early after Sochi in 2014, were ISU #1 ranked ice dance team 2010-2014. Virtue and Moir weren't #1 until after Davis and White left competitive skating then returned to college to finish new careers. That didn't happen until 2017 for V and M. Also D and W beat V and M in free dance nearly 90% of time during time they competed against each other.

When it comes to ice dance, this is easily one of the best programs ever! Phantom of the Opera is one of the best soundtracks ever and it’s always so interesting to see skaters do their own interpretation of it. Meryl Davis and Charlie White’s will go down in history

Charlie is so fast and frantic in his skating. A perfect foil to the fast and graceful Meryl. They are brilliant.

This routine was perfect for the two of them. It allowed for Charlie's energy, attack, musicality. Meryl, as always, skates her part with delicacy and perfection. I thought they were robbed. I remember how classy they were in receiving the silver - not so with Virtue and Moir when Davis and White took gold four years later. I think the world of both Meryl and Charlie - they were, and always will be excellent ambassadors in the skating world.

Remember the scores are in the hands of 7 judges. For whatever reasons the routine that Tessa/Scott performed resonated more with the judges. And they have the benefit of instant replay. The only difference I can possibly point to is that Tessa/Scott's feet were almost ALWAYS in perfect unison. I also feel that after the second twizzle when they dropped to one knee and glided toward the judges with head bowed-it stole the show. That's when that performance stole my heart. Both teams were amazing.

@@mariezurie2172 Let's not forget home ice advantage is a real thing, and Skate Canada did some heavy campaigning for V&M. Prior to that Olympic season, V&M had only won two gold medals in three years with only ONE of them being a GP event. In my book, there is no way V&M out-skated D&W at those Olympics, especially in the FD. The speed alone at which they skated should have earned them the gold. At that speed, every single element becomes exponentially more difficult.

Watching his hair fly around is like an integral part to all of their routines. It really adds something to their whole dynamic & the passion of their dancing. This was their best performance I've watched it so many times

What I love about Meryl and Charlie is that, when watching couples figure skate (or perform in general) our eye tends to focus on the female performer. But with these two, there is just something so graceful and beautiful about Charlie that my eyes dart back to him just ask much as they do Meryl.

Without a doubt, one of the most powerful ice dancing programs ever. They are phenomenal!

Oh my gawd! That performance was out of control. Just unbelievably powerful. The speed I mean I don't know what else to say. Its magic and perfection.

It's the soundtrack (as well as their amazing acting of course). The phantom of the opera gives me chills every time

One must remember that Charlie White has performed in his skating career with asthma. Yes he takes regulated medication, but to do training and perfected performances consistently with Meryl for 17 years, they are the best in ice dancing. I know they retired at the top of their profession, but innovation, speed on ice, musicality, and signature twizzlers will follow their induction into skating hall of fame. Had they skated for any country I would feel same way. Love you D & W.

No other skating couple performs with such energy, elegance, they are never still.

Today's singles skaters could take a cue from these fabulous ice dancers. From choreography to, music choice, to interpretation, to following tempo, and follow-through on a movement. Artistry seems only to exist in dance.

Are there goosebumps because it's cold in the arena or because the Phantom of the Opera, in general, is just amazing? But yes, their skating gave me chills lol.

There are many moments that I just have to stop and rewatch ‘how on earth did they do that?’

I can't stop watching it. SUCH A GREAT CHOREOGRAPHY and TALENT and they even express the EMOTIONS that go with it. Never seen better.

Give them the Oscar along with a gold medal

The Judges turned a blind eye to this Performance and awarded Canada the Gold medal.... Professional Wrestling is less Fixed than Figure Skating Figure skating a sad truth

A timeless classic. Vancouver olympics introduced me to figure skating and they were the first team I ever rooted for. Will always be a fan.

Wow. Making it look so effortless is what makes them great skaters. They are immersed with the routine, the music, the audience and each other. Plus they are very attractive.

This is beyond words... I'm too moved .. Precision, grace,...a pairing and performance like no other...

i adore this song and i honestly don’t think anyone could have skated to it so well! It’s almost like the song was made for them ❤❤

They took the figure skating performance and the song ‘Phantom of the Opera’ itself to a whole new level. LOVE IT!!!!!!

as a hometown girl from Detroit Michigan of all the programs i have seem them to this is by far is my personal favorite. they were the best in this event. No offense but I felt they were rob of the gold that year. I love Charlie , power and passion and he showcase more emotion in this program , then others I have seen , and Meryl beauty , charm, was the perfect compliment to charlie's power they are the perfect compliment to each other. and I was happy when they final got the gold for the us in ice dancing and from my hometown of Michgan. Most of allI love they chose the music from Phantom one of my all time favorite musical, and now with chock and bates I hope i dancing in the us continues to grow.
