Fun Skating Song List
« on: May 14, 2014, 03:44:58 PM »
Let's build a list.   

I hear alot of potentially fun songs to build an interpretive/fun routine to.  Now that lyrics are becoming more acceptable, this opens up the world.      (I listen to the radio, commuting to the rink and work and kids'  schools.   So many songs, that I'd never get a chance to do a routine to all of them.  So, I'm going to list:

Holding Back the Years - Simply Red (one of us adults has to do this one)
Those Were the Days My Friend - Patti Page (adult program, this one I want to do . . just at 4:52 I would need to be revived!)
Sweet Judy Blue Eyes or Carry On or Southern Cross - Crosby, Stills and Nash
Your Mama Don't Dance - Loggins and Messina (a great ice dance song)
Sailing the Wind - Loggins and Messina
A Love Song - Loggins and Messina (a great pairs song or male)
I Hate Myself for Loving You - Joan Jett (good song for synchro team with a lone male)

Listening to my music this morning, trying to pick some program music myself for the coming year...

Paradise - by Coldplay
Carousel of Life - from the Movie Howl's Moving Castle
Come Undone - Duran Duran
Minnie the Moocher - Cab Calloway as performed by Big Bad Voodoo daddy

And for when I can skate faster..

Think - Aretha Franklin
Troublemaker - Ollie Murrs
Hindi Sad Diamonds - from the Moulin Rouge soundtrack (I know, I know, I'm sorry, I have always loved that song!!)

Minnie the Moocher would be GREAT, as long as the skater didn't have a 'skater's butt'  (Hidi mistaken for hinny, hinny, hinny, ho)

Troublemaker has to be reserved for when Tania Harding is allowed to come back to skating.

Come Undone has always been a favorite of mine too.   But, I'd hate to somehow jinx a program and "come undone" in the middle of it.  Serendipity gone awry.

Whatever you do don't add anything by Frozen to the list. At our last in house competition we had 8 different routines to songs from Frozen. This was a 4 hour competition. I was waiting for the judges to lose their minds...

At my first rink they played this when they groomed the ice.

God, I miss that rink.
