 Loves It! June 27, 2008
Im a huge Riverdance fan. I have seen it live 3 times when it was on tour here in GA in 2007 and 2008. I hate its goin on a break. I hope it returns soon!

The first thing that I said to myself when I watched it was "What's wrong with the lighting?" Sometimes the dancers are completley in the dark! I really can't see how the lead female singer was put in the show, she has an ok voice but she doesn't blend with the others. I enjoyed watching Shivna and I liked the changes made to Ri Ra. I saw a version very similar to this, with a few costume changes, and it was amazing.
If this is your first time buying a Riverdance dvd I highly recommend The Best of Riverdance or Riverdance - The Show. Over all Riverdance is Riverdance, a show like no other no matter how many changes they make.
 A must pass for true fans. May 28, 2006

I have loved Riverdance since the first time I saw it on PBS. I could wait till I received my Riverdance: Live from New York DVD so many years ago. Recently, I had a chance to see it on tour when it came to Los Angeles. I had been waiting for that moment so long and it was everything I could hope for (with the exception of them having removed the song "Home in the Heartland" which any ture fan knows brought the story full circle). That night, I ordered not only Riverdance: Live from Geneva, but also Jean Butler's Irish Dance DVD (Which I would recommend). To make a long story short, don't waste your time with this version of the show. The main female singer is absolutely horrible (Definitely doesn't hold a candle to Katie MacMahon's original vocals), and the lead female dancer's too short hair drove me crazy. Do yourself a favor and purchase the 1999 DVD Live from New York. I promise you won't be disappointed.
 Great dancing but the lead female singer needs to go! June 12, 2005

I bought this DVD and enjoy it tremendously, the only problem is that the lead female singer? She takes the haunting, dreamy melodies that are beautiful in every other version of the show, and turns them into ear-pierceing, cringe-worthy caricatures of the original. It leads to a terrible experience for the viewer! In contrast, the male lead singer has a gorgeous voice, its just unfortunate that he was paired up with that singer.
