I'd rather it be a song that is not so well known so I can stand out, but still a very good song. I am a mezzo. Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I am auditioning for Suessical at a local theatre and I need a song. I'd rather it be a song that is not so well known so I can stand out, but still a very good song. I am a mezzo. My Strongest Suit from Aida (if you're belty) Let's Play a Love Scene from Fame Can You Find it in Your Heart from Footloose Astonishing from Little Women As Long as He Needs Me from Oliver hope this helped! As soon as i get home - the wiz sing a song that sounds good on the piano, and that is in your range. how about the chorus of a thousand miles by vanessa carlton http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnkvhi1XO... Do something from a musical that's old, but still good - Guys and Dolls, Sound of Music, etc. Break a leg! Look for songs that were written by the same composer/lyricists, because you'll have their style, but from a different show. (and most of their work has not been done to death at auditions, but it is quite good.) I always recommend "Times Like This" from Lucky Stiff, but you could look for a song from Ragtime or Once on This Island or My Favorite Year. Those shows were all written by Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens, who also did Seussical. http://www.ahrensandflaherty.com/ Forgiveness- Jane Eyre http://www.lyricsondemand.com/soundtrack...
