Choosing Cheerleading Music

Cheerleading music can be a great way to boost the energy level of cheerleaders, and it can also make a routine more entertaining for the crowd. A variety of songs can be used, depending on the cheerleaders’ age, the purpose of the cheer, and the context of the event. For instance, a competition may require a two-minute music mashup, while a pep rally might only need a shorter song. Before choosing music for your cheer squad, be sure to consider the audience’s taste and whether or not they will be able to sing along to the chorus. Songs such as Round by Selena Gomez and Party in the USA by Miley Cyrus are also great, since they are catchy and easy for the audience to sing along to.

Another option is to select themed cheerleading music. In this case, you can choose songs with a sports theme, but it is important to avoid songs with lyrics that are too obscure. It would be difficult for judges to distinguish among these songs, and it would be better to select songs that are well-known to the audience. For example, a group with a “Days of the Week” theme might want to use the Beatles’ “8 Days a Week” or a song from “Happy Days.” This choice is likely to fail to evoke enough energy and excitement for the audience to enjoy the routine.

Thankfully, cheerleading music has come a long way since its early days of DIY mixes and boombox mixes. With the rise of the professional cheer music industry, cheer music compositions became more complex and precise.
