Music is a major part of any performance, especially a majorette performance. Twirling the baton without music would make for a lackluster routine. If you’re looking to compete or just looking to twirl the baton for fun, it helps to have a song or playlist in mind. With so many fun, upbeat songs out there, it can be difficult to choose the perfect one. Here are a few we recommend trying for your next baton twirling act. Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen This epic anthem has just as much relevance today as it did in 1975, even if we’re still not completely sure what all the words mean. It’s a long enough song that you can incorporate as many tricks and dance moves as you’d like into your routine. It also has great variety. Between hard rock, opera, and slow, melodic parts, there’s plenty to work with in terms of creating a baton twirling routine. Walking on Sunshine by Katrina and the Waves For something that’s plenty upbeat but a little less epic, Walking on Sunshine is a perfect fit. This song has a consistent, fast but not-too-fast beat and takes you on a journey from the perspective of someone who’s happy to be in love, waiting to hear from and see their loved one. It’s an optimistic, happy melody that will make the audience happy and may even get them singing along! Eye of the Tiger by Survivor When you’re putting on a performance, you want to capture your audience, and one great way to do that is with this inspirational classic. A favorite of fight scenes, growth montages and everything in between, this song will be sure to capture your audience on its own, so the challenge will be coming up with a routine that lives up to the hype. But you’ve got this — you’ve got the eye of the tiger. Your favorite hype song To find the perfect baton twirling song, don’t feel like you need to dig into the oldies. Pick whatever song gets you moving. Is it Toxic by Brittney Spears? Truth Hurts by Lizzo? If you find a song, and your first thought is “I could twirl to that,” don’t let anything stop you! Come up with a routine that helps you shine alongside your favorite song. While you’re practicing, you’ll have to listen to the song over and over and over, so choose something you love! Baton twirling routines require music, a stage and an audience, as well as practice and training. However, there’s something just as important that you need to twirl — equipment.
