Hi, I know that a lot of songs are associated with the people that sing them, and I know that this is one of them so I have just a few questions. 1) Is this song definitley a bad choice for auditions? And 2) Is the song mainly to be sung by an alto since it is lower and deeper? Thanks

1) Yes. You'll automatically be associated with Judy Garland. Unless you can blow her out of the water, I'd say don't try.

2) You can always transpose music.

Thats what I figured. But, I know that some where over the rainbow is an alto song and I don't know if it would song good with a soprano doing it?

To me, "Somewhere" is a song that can go either way. I've heard a Korean singer (male) do it and it was just gorgeous. I've heard Judy's and it was gorgeous. I've heard a sopranist do it, and it was gorgeous. That's the situation for any song. Do it well, and it doesn't matter if you're a alto, soprano, tenor, baritone, whatever.

somewhere is one word. I don't think you should sing it if you can't spell it. it's not a good sign...

Technically, it's spelled correctly. It's just spaced incorrectly.

CATSNYrevival- Well excuse me, I forgot the space, as you did in your name, Cats and NY don't go together.
