A ballad is a song that tells a story. Some example of a ballad that you may know are Scarborough Fair, Hey Jude, Hotel California, and Space Oddity.

Are you sure it has to be a ballad though? What are you auditioning for, exactly?

A ballad is simply a slow song. Most auditions refer to you performing an "up-tempo and a ballad," usually only 16 bars of each.

Open Arms by Journey
Toledo by Elvis Costello
Always OR Bed of Roses---Bon Jovi
Something---Beatles
Wasted Time----Eagles
How Sweet It is (don't know orginal artist, but Joan Osborne covers it)
There's so many---learn popular music history!!!
Good luck!
