Looking for Tush Push Song Recommendations


There’s a Whole Lot of Dancin’ Goin’ On to the Tush Push!

Line Dance Cowboy Boots (CC)I posted a request to the World Line Dance Newsletter for people to send me the names of the songs that they use in their area to dance the “Tush Push” line dance.

If you have come here to my blog in response to the notice in Carol’s Newsletter, just put the name and artist of the song down below in the comments section.

Or you can use this contact form if you like:

Thank you for your response. ✨

Either way will get the name of the song to my email inbox.

If you’re a follower of my blog or follow me on Twitter, then I extend the same invitation to you.  Send me your favorite Tush Push song!  Woot!

After all the recommendations stop flooding in, I’ll compile the list and create a list (or two) and post them here on my blog:

Until then, enjoy this video of some folks from France dancing the Tush Push
