Hi all,
I know that audition song questions are asked all the time but I need some recommendations for a contemporary tenor audition song. Preferably more pop but I am open to other options.

Kinda Altar Boyz esq. but again I'm open to other suggestions.
thanks so much!

there are seriously 1,000 contemporary tenor songs, upbeat and ballad. And honestly, the best ones will not be told because everyone has their "favorites" to use and will not release them easily. My suggestion is buying the Musical Theatre anthology song books because most of those songs are contemporary, especially in the newest ones.

Also, don't do anything within the past 5 years. Look up specific up and coming composers (ie William Finn, Andrew Lippa) and branch off from them.
