Til There was you (on the White Album) is actually a show tune from the Music Man.

Although John was my favorite, Paul definitely sang the more melodic pieces.

Avoid any and all Ringo Songs partcularly the Octopuses garden!

day tripper.

hey jude, all you need is love

day tripper

thats easy.... girl, in my life, yesterday, hey jude, let it be,

Hey Jude
Love Me Do

Let It Be or When I'm 64!

The best songs for an audition are ones from the play and the role you're going for. This let's the director visualise you in the role.
Most of the Beatles songs have a pretty serious vocal range so, if you've got a good range, they can be a good choice but, if not...disaster.

depends on what key you sing.

I like "Let It Be", "Imagine".

I'd probably avoid John & Yoko's "Kiss" with that orgasm thing going... might kinda get dismissed from your audition rather early.

help,she loves you,and cant buy me love

Yesterday--would be nice. I would say listen to the songs and practice, then you will know which ones are within your range/grasp.

Alot depends on your range but I think In My Life or Oh Darling would be fun.
