i'm a belter with low to middle range and can sing things like Fame, On my Own, I dreamed a Dream, Don't cry for me Argentina but they've been done so many times in my voice and it doesn't feel new or exciting anymore so i can't put 150% into it. I need a good song, was looking at If I can't have you from Saturday Night Fever but can't find sheet music for it and am not sure if youre supposed to sing something like that, are you???? desperate for help, please help me!

These threads are getting really, really REALLY old. What are you even auditioning for?

Sing something you know if the audition is soon. Never try to wing a new song for an "important" audition.

Number 1 priority should always be to sing an appropriate song for the show based on period and style. When time is an issue though, sings whatever shows you off the best.

Yeah, so if youre asking us for help why haven't you told us the show youre auditioning for?

JRB Actor makes a good point. If the audition is that important, it's not the time to try out a new piece. Stick to something you know like the back of your hand and which shows off your range best.

Not sure if this is going to help, but here are some songs:

"Gimme Gimme" - Thoroughly Modern Millie
"When You Got It, Flaunt It" - The Producers
"Once Upon a Time" - Brooklyn
