What are some good songs for a cheerleading competition routine?
Well it definately has to be a mix of songs (slower for stunting, faster for dancing, etc.) I LOVE it when teams do “themes” to their mixes. Also, judges really like it if you incorporate older classic songs. For example my team did a “la la” theme a few years ago when Ashlee Simpson’s “la la” song came out and we mixed that with Brown Eyed Girl and everyone loved it. Another example is a “magic” theme I saw way back when “magic stick” came out and they mixed that with the classic “do you believe in magic?” and “magic carpet ride” Good luck! P.S. stay away from those songs like hey mickey that others have suggested…judges won’t like it, nor will the squad who has to listen to it for hours everyday!
I’ve tried to come up with a list that many others wouldn’t think of to use so you team will look more creative. Wait A Minute – Pussycat Dolls Beat it – Michal Jackson It’s On – Superchick One Step At a Time – Jordan Sparks Burnin Up – Jonas Brothers (anything in this song would be good) Headlock – Imogen Heap (The refrain could be really cool if placed right) With Love – Hilary Duff Hope this helps you out.
