I am producing a play which I would like to add a couple songs to. It is a play about death and a man who murders several of his friends. The songs will be sung by the people who are killed. I am looking for suggestions on songs (that are fairly recognizable for a moderately theatre savvy audience) that can be sung by or adapted to an ensemble setting such as:
The New World: Songs for a New World
Hear My Song: Songs for a New World
Tomorrow Belongs to Me: Cabaret
Somewhere: West Side Story
Purple Summer: Spring Awakening
Those You've Known: Spring Awakening
Love Heals: Rent film
Light: Next to Normal
Any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated!
Thanks!

Cast albums are NOT "soundtracks."
Live theatre does not use a "soundtrack." If it did, it wouldn't be live theatre!
I host a weekly one-hour radio program featuring cast album selections as well as songs by cabaret, jazz and theatre artists. The program, FRONT ROW CENTRE is heard Sundays 9 to 10 am and also Saturdays from 8 to 9 am (eastern times) on www.proudfm.com
