I never understood how the judges saw cocky and arrogant. Danny was an amazing dancer, and I always thought that he was so shy and withdrawn, but when he danced, he was MAGNIFICIENT. In all my years of watching, I always thought he was the absolute best and his technique was flawless. I could never take my eyes off of him. If he seemed confident when he danced, I suspect that's where he felt most comfortable, more like who he was. Aside from dancing, shy and sweet. Shame on the judges for ripping him apart each week. Yeah, clearly they were routing for a female because two men had one the first two years. I loved Sabra, but Danny...yeah, he was amazing.
Because they both love the spotlight, that's what make this dance see beautiful. They both shine in it. They were both independent, and both vulnerable. Magic. Such a perfect match.
Anya shared this dance on Instagram in tribute to Danny following his death 🥺. He really was just magnificent and the best, most versatile dancer ever to grace SYTYCD. Thank you Danny Tidwell, for sharing your gift with the rest of the world.
Danny was far and away the best dancer to ever hit the stage in the 11 seasons of SYTYCD. This routine is amazing and yet the judges slammed it. All of them. I couldn't believe it when I heard how they criticized Danny. IMO this is one of the top five contemporary routines in the history of the show.
Jessica Hightower If you're talking about this dance, I think you're missing the point of it. He's playing someone who's angry at his partner. In general, he had no problems connecting with Lacey, or Lauren, or with Anya in several of their other dances (jive, foxtrot). Actually, the only partner I felt like he didn't connect with was Sabra.
You do realize this dance is about a guy who is angry at his girlfriend. Don't you? BTW, I met Danny when the group was on tour. He was very shy, very gracious and very sweet. (And not nearly as tall as I thought he would be).
Gwenhamara i completely agree with you for me this routine from my favorite and might be from the best contemporary dance i have ever seen in the show by the way i don't like contemporary dance because it is boring for me but i like this because there was creativity in this routine and incredible dance Danny has phenomenal athleticism i have never seen outstanding dancer like him in so you think you can dance across all the seasons
@@maryamali9556 No he didn't he never did. People that met said he was shy and reserved. Dumb or jealous people read it as arrogance. He was a beautiful specimen of a man. His performance made you fall in love with him.
I think Anya did incredible well for a ballroom dancer. She's sharing the stage with DANNY and everyone pales in comparison to that. Plus the way she makes the lifts seem so effortless, like there's no gravity at all... urghf! Beautiful!
he truly was an unforgettable dancer--I will always measure every dancer I see according to Danny, and not one yet have I seen that compares. Possibly Nureyev.
and they had an amazing partenership like dancers..and all of the dancers from season 3 had an amazing personality...and were amazing dancers..without question the best personalities that has ever been on the show were from dancers from season 3..and some of the best dancers..also and some of the best dances also..and some of the best moments also.. like laughing and crying..and some of the best solos also..and the most cool boys and girls and some of the most beautifull inside and out ive seen
Danny Tidwell is one of, if not THE, most beautiful dancers I have ever seen on SYTYCD. EVER. His lines were extraordinary and breath-taking. There was no way in hell that he should have lost to Sabra, but that was Nigel's bloody fault for so blatantly proclaiming just before the final vote that he wanted to see a female win and you knew who he meant. The whole stinking judging panel was at fault because of THEIR lousy attitudes directed at Danny and it was also the viewing audience's fault for falling for their garbage. In short, Danny was majorly screwed.
Danny was THE best to ever be on SYTYCD. I love Benji, Mark and Travis but Danny was in a class by himself. It's a damned shame the way the judges treated him.
I completely agree with you. Danny is one of the most beautiful dancers I've ever watched. No matter who his partner was, I could never take my eyes off him. The judges pissed me off so much because they tried their best to put him down and turn the viewers against him by saying he was arrogant. It was obviously set up for Sabra to win. If it had been based on talent, nobody could touch Danny.
but Sabra really deserve to be the winner i screamed too much when she wins because she was the first girls win in so you think you can dance and about Danny he also incredible dancers 👍👍👍
This season had THE BEST CONTEMPORARY AND JAZZ ROUTINES hands down... this is when the series really hit it's stride and, in my opinion, never really got it back...this was PEAK
I don't understand how Shane Sparks, Nigel and Adam all gave him so much grief for being arrogant, when he was so far from it. How they all misread his presence is beyond me. RIP,Danny.
Still one of the best performances of this entire series of shows from pretty much the best dancer that ever graced the stage. He was Rege Jean Page part 1 of Dance! And that stupid judge said that he danced arrogantly😳 is or was that ever really a thing ? I hope that now he knows he was a hater of the worst kind😒 Had to be jealousy💯
i wanna say somethig i feel i have to..actualy i know it sounds strange but anya was the one who helped dany at the begining of the season becouse the judges and people taought he has a bad atitude..and anya had an amazing personality as well as he but at the begining people didnt saw that..and they were amazing togheter as parteners dancers..people without any offence but do your homework if u dont know and didnt watch season 3 dont talk...anya was an amazing dancer on season 3 and still is..
I know its your own opinion.but danny is no where near cocky. Have u watched the latest travis wall piece which was danced by tucker n robert? It kinda represented danny being afraid to come out from his introvert shell because of his past though he was inspired by Travis's sytycd journey. Him being really inspired showed that he is one humble being. he was actually just shy. To me, cocky guys will never constantly look out for their partner n will try to out dance them (like Blake) unlike danny
Danny was outstanding. But I gotta take my hat off to Anya, her partner really shined here. She was able to move naturally between her own moments and movements with him. Nothing was rushed, it seemed to flow together from one thing to the next
Idk what it is, but the latest seasons of SYTYCD are missing a touch of what these two had. It's not just their incredible talent, but the passion and versatility...idk what it is but SYTYCD has lost it's spirit that was present in the first 3 seasons. After season 3, it really hasn't been the same for me.
rainneyfabray rfcool the judges slammed about being "cocky" and "too confident". They didn't sugar coat it at all. Shane sparks even got mad at the other judges for putting him into the top 20. It wasn't until after his season and when he lost to sabra that they started to praise his dance ability which made absolutely no sense to me.

I think about this dance OFTEN. now to know youve passed makes it that much more memorable. RIP Danny
I didn't know about his death until I came back to this video. So very sad. He was a beautiful man and dancer. RIP Danny.
@@MdnightWnd how did he die?
Jesus how did he die?
@@MdnightWnd car crash :(
@@sagarkulkarniwrites c a r crash:(
Wow he was just one of the most beautiful things I’d ever seen, still can’t believe the world had lost him
Truly tragic loss! 😢😭This is my all-time favorite routine of SYTYCD!
I didn't even know until I read this. 😢
I was just thinking about this performance I didn’t know he passed, what happened?
@@RissAndCoDanny passed away in a car crash driven by his friend in 2020.😭
Thank you for responding, I’ve read up on it. It’s so very sad and tragic 💔😢
This is still the most beautiful, perfection, and passionate dance, I have ever seen.
i agree with you
4 years since your comment and it's still true!!
Still true in 2023
Danny was definitely the BEST dancer ever on So You Think You Can Dance! No competition.
In 2020, this is STILL one of my Top 5 favorite choreographies from the this show
Danny is one of the most beautiful, technical and elegant dancer:) i ever seen

He was way too full of himself. And it inhibited his connection with his partner.
Jessica Hightower HOW SO. i cant see that at all
Jessica Hightower If you're talking about this dance, I think you're missing the point of it. He's playing someone who's angry at his partner.

Everyone line perfect by Danny.I love to watch him dance.
I can't believe Danny is no longer on this earth. It breaks my heart that he died way too young. He was magnificent.
both good but couldn't stop looking at HIM. Gorgeous dancer *.*
True. But he’s also very arrogant . I watched the series,and he always boasts .
@@maryamali9556 No he didn't he never did. People that met said he was shy and reserved. Dumb or jealous people read it as arrogance. He was a beautiful specimen of a man. His performance made you fall in love with him.
I'm heartbroken. My thoughts are with his family and friends. He was one of my favorites on the show. He was a master at what he did.
I think Anya did incredible well for a ballroom dancer. She's sharing the stage with DANNY and everyone pales in comparison to that. Plus the way she makes the lifts seem so effortless, like there's no gravity at all... urghf! Beautiful!
The TRUE reason why "Apologize" was played so much on the radio was this performance... it just MOVED you
Danny is my favorite dancer out of everyone that’s graced the SYTYCD stage. He was perfection to me. 🫶
Anybody else still watching this video TIL DATE? Can't get enough of their ridiculous on-stage presence and chemistry. Wish they'd do more duos!
Even after so many years their performance is still beautiful.
he truly was an unforgettable dancer--I will always measure every dancer I see according to Danny, and not one yet have I seen that compares. Possibly Nureyev.
Danny is such an awesome, manly dancer. He also very attractive. Amazing.
R.I.P DANNY. MAY YOU REST IN PARADISE 🙏🏿🙏🏿
His lines are out of this world.
My favorite dance of all seasons
I'm here for Anya! She did incredible.
and they had an amazing partenership like dancers..and all of the dancers from season 3 had an amazing personality...and were amazing dancers..without question the best personalities that has ever been on the show were from dancers from season 3..and some of the best dancers..also and some of the best dances also..and some of the best moments also.. like laughing and crying..and some of the best solos also..and the most cool boys and girls and some of the most beautifull inside and out ive seen

+Jenny Lake He was a magnificent dancer. Truly the best that SYTYCD has ever seen. Sabra winning was highway robbery.

@@yassinawad3012 Sabra couldn't hold a candle to Danny.

R.I.P Danny Tidwell just found out he passed away so devastating he was talented rest easy Danny and fly high 😥💔👼
and some of the best atitude ..
i wanna say somethig i feel i have to..actualy i know it sounds strange but anya was the one who helped dany at the begining of the season becouse the judges and people taought he has a bad atitude..and anya had an amazing personality as well as he but at the begining people didnt saw that..and they were amazing togheter as parteners dancers..people without any offence but do your homework if u dont know and didnt watch season 3 dont talk...anya was an amazing dancer on season 3 and still is..
Why am I doing this to myself? RIP Danny. So sad.

Danny was outstanding.
But I gotta take my hat off to Anya, her partner really shined here. She was able to move naturally between her own moments and movements with him. Nothing was rushed, it seemed to flow together from one thing to the next
What version of apologize is this. I love this music so much but i can't find it?
you can find it easily but you are silly because in the beginning of every piece the name of the song and artist are written
Idk what it is, but the latest seasons of SYTYCD are missing a touch of what these two had. It's not just their incredible talent, but the passion and versatility...idk what it is but SYTYCD has lost it's spirit that was present in the first 3 seasons. After season 3, it really hasn't been the same for me.
Damn.
How do i get this song ?
Who choreographed this?
Tyce diOrio
I think Danny was one of the most hated contestants by the judges in history.
Why what he do?
rainneyfabray rfcool the judges slammed about being "cocky" and "too confident". They didn't sugar coat it at all. Shane sparks even got mad at the other judges for putting him into the top 20. It wasn't until after his season and when he lost to sabra that they started to praise his dance ability which made absolutely no sense to me.
Reminds me of Blake McGrath when he was on SYTYCD
rainneyfabray rfcool Yepp, precisely!
I don't get why they can't look pased their personality and pay attention to the dancing
way too much ballerina for this song :P
Tadinha dela se ferrou olha c quem ela fez duooo
I keep going back to these years . This show is now diluted with bullcrap
this routine is like an older married woman having an affair with a younger man.
She's not doing any real dancing. I'm not crazy about this piece.
