Sweeney Todd audition

Still tryin to figure out - last minute - what song I'm going to sing for my audition today. Tobias is the goal. Any help would be great! I'm having a hard time deciding.

re: Sweeney Todd audition

do you have it narrowed down? I would think something that shows you to be vulnerable but with passion, sweet and very "exposed" - that would be the kind of thing Tobias would sing.
"I don't really get the ending,all i can go with is when after several months,Judith saw Pat sang,and later she kissed him on the toilet,after that the story back to where Pat went down from the stage after he'd sung,and he went to the italian lady.I just don't get it,what Judith exatcly meant when he kissed Pat that she had seen,and did Pat end up together with The Italian Lady?Please help me,thank u very much!" Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!

yeah i know! it isn't easy!! And if it were to be all of those, it seems tough. it's either something with that edge or my best 16...

if you have no time - I say give them your best 16 and let them decide if they want to hear more - but in that case - do you have something vulnerable - thats what the character is all about.

its so hard to define - there's a song called "Here I am" but I can't remember what show it's from - but its very vunlerable. Actually you can put that slant on just about anything you sing.
I'm blanking here this morning so probably won't be much help - I'm thinking "Night Song" from Golden Boy, or even something like "Somewhere" from West side story - something simple and sweet and straightforward. Wish I could think but I'm running on empty at the moment...

it's cool, thanks a lot! i've been thinking about just taking a song, lyrically vague and putting that spin on it. it totally can work..i just dont wanna sing something too obviously contemporary. Even if I sang "At The Fountain" or "I'm Martin Guerre", they both are/can be vulnerable/insecure.

We shall see..its in an hour :) - gonna take off soon!
