Well, first off, as this really should be said, MAJOR Props absolutely have to go out to the ever-AMAZING Sharna, who, despite - unarguably - acquiring the most challenging “Switch Up” of all the Season 22 Professionals, once again displayed a level of ability and excellence that has become synonymous with the name, Burgess, on this show!

And now, secondly, (and of course) even GREATER Props go out to the always INCREDIBLE Nyle, who deftly brought this beautifully Choreographed Piece masterfully to life with a purely delightful, flowing combination of Graceful Steps, Wonderful Musicality, and a Brilliantly-Executed, Quietly-Passionate Character Portrayal!
(Can you tell that I loved it?!)

“Wow!” a justly emotional Carrie Ann Inaba remarked simply, following the Performance.
“I mean, you take my breath away …” she continued. “At first I thought [that] maybe, at the beginning of this Competition, you were at a disadvantage [because of your Deafness]; but, when I watch you perform, I realize that you’re [actually] at an advantage, because you’ve been telling stories with your body, and communicating with your body, your whole life! You were born to dance!”

“I’ll tell you what that was,” threw in Head Judge, Len Goodman, “that was like a total Eclipse: It don’t turn up often, but when it does, it’s Fan-tastic!”
“It’s so hard” began Guest Judge, Maksim Chmerkovskiy, “- It’s hard for me to comprehend - I know you, I know you well, [and yet] it’s hard for me to understand how this is possible: It’s the best dance of the Night … it had so much Musicality, so much Musicality - which is mind-boggling how it’s possible - amazing job!”

“… You have to be made of granite not to fall head-over-heels-in-love with that Performance!” added Judge, Bruno Tonioli, in conclusion, right before the gratifying Switch Up Pairing that was Nyle & Sharna went on to receive the highest score awarded so far within this Season, as well as the Season’s very first “10”, a hard-earned and sweet reward that came additionally wrapped within the Glitter Dome’s greatest honor, as this particular “10” was presented by none other than Len himself!
A job so very well done; and, I couldn’t be happier for this well-deserving, Week 05 Couple!!

… That said, and while I don’t necessarily consider myself to be a “granite-born”, hard-@$$, I do feel that, in all fairness, it must be added that, personally, I didn’t think that this Viennese Waltz was Nyle's best dance.
Now, now, before you all go understandably blowing your tops, let me first add that I think that Nyle's dancing has been absolutely incredible during the previous Weeks; and, that he has certainly missed out on MORE than his fair share of “10”s throughout this Season overall ... It’s just that this Week 05 Performance (compared to his others) was just not his best, thus begging the question, how did it, of all his Dances receive a "10"?
Put simply: It cannot be any kind of revelation to viewers of this show that one of the greater challenges that Nyle would eventually find himself facing within the Art of Ballroom Dance is that of Leading within a Routine so, it also cannot be of any small surprise that a staunchly Framed and classically Ballroom display, such as the Viennese Waltz, would bring this very natural dancing-hardship unmercifully to light, as was the case during this Dance, via a Hunched Frame, and some notably Stiff and even Hesitant Movement within an otherwise Fluid Performance.
Still, the above negative notations having been listed in an almost painful effort to be Fair and Honest, I absolutely and 100% loved this Performance, and can even be THRILLED at the Dance’s resulting “10”, as Nyle really has deserved one from the start of the Season!
