BC4ME Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 I'm a bit brain dead at the moment as my step dad recently passed away and I need to get myself organised as Ekka entries are due shortly so I need your help. As you can guess from my topic I need a new Heelwork to Music routine for Chook. Chook is a clown of a dog and is a typical male border collie who likes to take the lead when we are dancing. The song needs to have a steady beat that you can walk to easily and something that people know and can sing along with any ideas will be greatly appreciated. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleo's Corgwyn Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Depends on what you like? I'm currently working on Chad Kroeger and Santanas 'Into the Night' I've also toyed with the old Mambo number 5, Crazy Little Thing Called Love The Beat Goes On You Spin me Right Round The King of Wishful Thinking Shake a Tail Feather And I have a stack of Belly dance and Arabic Pop, but I'm a belly dancer, so that suits me.

BC4ME Posted May 24, 2011 Author Share Posted May 24, 2011 Thanks for the replies. Because Chook is a funny dog with heaps of personality I was thinking something upbeat and catchy, something everyone can sing along to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ness Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 (edited) I just need to get myself somewhere to a trial :D. I have half a HTM routine planned to it already - just need a sound dog that I can train and trial again . Her new freestyle routine is going to be quite spiffy too .

BC4ME Posted May 25, 2011 Author Share Posted May 25, 2011 You all have some great songs some of them have either been done or are being done at the moment. I'm looking for something different but what I don't know. 500 miles is on the top of my list at the moment though it was a great song and everyone knows it. But keep the ideas coming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Rusty Bucket Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 So you need something a bit more obscure but still good for a sing along.

Alley Oop - I know George Thorogood did this one but not who wrote it Bad to the bone - George Thorogood Eagle Rock - Daddy Cool Crocodile Rock - Elton John My boomerang won't come back - various Tie me Kangaroo down sport - Rolf Harris Aus Folk songs: Queensland Drovers Click go the Shearers Botany Bay Bold Tommy Payne (now there's one with lyrics to crack you up). http://folkstream.com/108.html Women in Uniform - Skyhooks Boys Light Up - Australian Crawl Saturday Night - Cold Chisel Addicted to Love - Robert Palmer That don't impress me much - Shania Twain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Rusty Bucket Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 They played Paul Kelly "Good light in Broome" on the radio this arvo - I reckon that one would be good too along with a whole lot of his songs. But that one has a lot of stuff about dogs in it. And whistling for dogs, which could get interesting in a dog competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
