Answer first
What Chipmunks dance AI is
Updated : new page.
Chipmunks dance AI is an AI video of you and up to two friends doing the TikTok Chipmunks dance, also called the Alvin and the Chipmunks dance. The routine is for three people in a row, to the Chipmunks' cover of "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)", the 1984 Dead or Alive hit the Chipmunks recorded for the 2009 soundtrack of Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel. TikTok users made up the dance; it is not a scene from the films.
It took off in October 2026. The most watched version we found, three siblings on a deck, had 20.7 million plays on 3 November 2026, and posts tagged #chipmunkdance and #chipmunksdance rose from 9 a day on 29 October to 43 on 1 November in our sample. On this page you add a photo of each dancer, and the video model follows a credited take by three dancers in a studio move by move. You dance in your own clothes, and the song is on the finished clip.
RapVideo.ai has no connection to Alvin and the Chipmunks, its owners, TikTok or CapCut.
What song does Chipmunks dance AI use?
The Chipmunks’ version of "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)", track 4 of the Squeakquel soundtrack released on 1 December 2009; on TikTok it is mostly a remix posted as an "original sound". More in what is the Chipmunks dance song.
Do I need CapCut for the Chipmunks dance trend?
No. TikTok tutorials open a CapCut template link and import photos. Here you do it in the browser: one to three photos in, a Chipmunks dance AI MP4 out, with the song on it.

Inside the clip
What your Chipmunks dance AI clip shows
The strut
The middle dancer walks up to the camera and dances with her back to it.
The swaps
Fingers to the ceiling, then spins as the three of you trade places.
The song
The Chipmunks’ "You Spin Me Round" as heard in the take the effect follows, 15 seconds, on the finished MP4.
The Chipmunks dance AI routine, second by second
We watched the take the effect follows every half second. Your 15 seconds keep its moves and its spots; photo 1 dances the middle part:
| Seconds | What happens |
|---|---|
| 0 to 2 | Three in a row facing the camera, bouncing on the beat, the middle one a step back. |
| 2 to 3.5 | A jump together, hands waving over your heads. |
| 3.5 to 8.5 | The middle one struts up to the camera, dances with her back turned, then steps back in line. |
| 8.5 to 10 | One finger pointed at the ceiling, then both arms up. |
| 10 to 15 | Spins and swapped spots: the right one spins across to the left, the middle one moves right, and the three keep trading places. |
One, two or three dancers
| Photos | Middle part | Right part | Left part |
|---|---|---|---|
| One | Photo 1 | Nobody | Nobody |
| Two | Photo 1 | Photo 2 | Nobody |
| Three | Photo 1 | Photo 2 | Photo 3 |
A part nobody plays is left out, with the studio showing where that dancer stood. It is a trio routine, so it looks most like the TikTok videos with three of you. The price is the same for one, two or three.

Tips for a better Chipmunks dance AI video
- Use full-body photos: the camera sees every dancer head to toe, and the jumps and spins show legs and shoes.
- One clear photo per person, not one group photo; similar framing for all three works best.
- Put the one who should strut up to the camera in photo 1.
- Wear what you want to dance in. Matching colours, like the TikTok trios in red, green and blue, come from your photos, not the effect.
- Your own photos, or friends who said yes. Faces of famous people and of children are not for this.
