Male Pop Audition Songs

I searched and I saw that there is a thread on female pop auditions songs but I am a male and I have an audition coming up that requires a pop/pop inspired tune. So if anyone has any ideas for a male pop song that would be great. Also, if it helps its for a performance of "Bare" in concert and I'm a tenor if that helps to narrow it down for you. Any help at this point would be great cause I have no idea where to go with this one.

You could look at some of Scott Alan's music particularly Kiss the Air, a song that is on that site performed by Danny Calvert; you can pop it up.
There's also some music by Pasek & Paul that is good for a pop tenor; particularly "I Once Knew", however I believe that it was cut from Edges and is probably pretty hard to come by; check out their website and contact them if need be.
One last suggestion would be "Run Away With Me" from "The Unauthorized Biography of Samantha Brown" which is written by Kerrigan & Lowdermilk. There is a clip of the very talented Josh Young performing it on their site.

Best of luck!! If you have any questions or anything don't hesitate to PM me.

Cheers,

Christopher

This is probably waaaaaaaaaay too late for whatever you were auditioning for ...

but if the situation ever comes up again, and provided you have an alright range - check out "Epiphany" from Altar Boyz.

and maybe "Highway Miles" from "The Flood" (You can find the sheet music online for free)
