"Somebody to Love" by Queen
or "It's a hard knock life" from the movie Annie

Do you realize that by starting out with "UMM" you've made yourself sound like an idiot?
I'm sure you're not an idiot, so do yourself a huge favor and don't start sentences out that way.

As far as your question goes......why not dress up as early "Kiss", back when they used the makeup and outfits? "Detroit Rock City" would be a good Kiss song to mime to.

My Boyfriend's Back
It's My Party (and I'll cry if I want to)
Please, Mr. Postman
The Leader of the Pack
Material World (Madonna)
It's Raining Men
Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy
These Boots are Made for Walking

Here is a really good list of singers and songs from the GrOoVy days (60's & 70's) lol! : http://www.groovologist.com/60s70ssongsm...

you should do bohemian rhapsody by queen, and do an interprtive dance to it.

OOOOOOHHHHHHHHH,

Do the offspring's Self Esteem, bet you could do that well.

Kiss! Do I wanna rock & roll all night. They dress like this: http://www.aerosmith-kiss-tickets.com/KI...
And here's the lyrics-
You show us everything you've got
You keep on dancin' and the room gets hot
You drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy
You say you wanna go for a spin
The party's just begun, we'll let you in
You drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy
You keep on shoutin', you keep on shoutin'

I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day


You keep on saying you'll be mine for a while
You're lookin' fancy and I like your style
You drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy
You show us everything you've got
Baby, baby that's quite a lot
And you drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy
You keep on shoutin', you keep on shoutin'


I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll

funny: can't touch this by MC Hammer

woman empowerment: Janet Jackson - Nasty

Nuetral - do madonna songs

good luck

Do an R.E.M. song. If it is a contest like at my school and your peers and teachers both vote, I can give you a 95% guarantee that you will win and they right songs that you can get very creative with. If you do a song by these guys you and your friends will have lots of fun. I recommend "It's the End of the World as We Know It."

ozzy momma im coming home

Try a christmas son by the Carpenters.

You will do terrific.

Good luck!!

When i saw your question it brought back memories.I was a junior in junior high school
we did the same program.( 1950)
HOW ABOUT THE TEMPT IONS,(STOP IN THE NAME OF LOVE) OR ANY DO WHOP GROUP.
DO YOUR SONG AND DO YOUR MOVEMENTS AND SECOND FOLLOW UP WITH THE SONG AGAIN.

any Top 40 song and at least the audience will know it.
Keep it simple.> Any songs from that time you know and like?
That would be a good place to start.
Almost sounds like Karaoke> another place to choose a good song that you can pull off,>as it is a contest!

"Don't Stop Believin'" by Journey. It's amazing! You can listen to it here:
