Scotty McCreery first came into the spotlight on the American Idol stage. With his deep baritone voice and modest, friendly demeanor, he quickly won legions of fans. He made many new fans at the Grand Ole Opry back in 2012 when he sang this song. Taking to the stage, he sings one of Garth Brooks’ biggest hits – “The Dance”.
The song is written with a double meaning – it’s both a love song about the end of a passionate relationship, and a story of someone dying because of something he believes in, after a moment of glory.
Watch McCreery’s stirring performance below, and share it if it moved you.
