Song Recommendations · 1:43am Mar 18th, 2016
Hey, everyone! I just found out about this opportunity to sing competitively at my university on the 14th of next month. However, I have to register tomorrow, and I must provide four songs to sing at each level of the competition as well as the order. I don't know if there are prizes, but I'd like to do my best, you know?
Anyway, there will be a DJ providing karaoke tracks, so it's not a really formal singing event, but this limits my song choices to what they have. You guys are probably the best judges I have for this if you've heard my audio readings and singing. Here are the songs I wrote down I felt I could pick up by then and have a decent chance with. I'll link the songs to the titles and artists. Keep in mind this is a judged event, not an audience choice deal. You'll notice there's a lot of Johnny Cash songs here. He's what I and the DJ seem to have the most in common with, so, y'know, I'd pick different songs if I wasn't limited to these.
I do have a list already prepared, so I'll still be entering tomorrow even if I don't hear from you guys, but I really would appreciate your insight.
"Ghost Riders in the Sky" by Johnny Cash
"Get Rhythm" by Johnny Cash
"Hurt" by Johnny Cash
"So Doggone Lonesome" by Johnny Cash
"Poisoning Pigeons in the Park" by Tom Lehrer
"No One Knows Who I Am" from Jekyll and Hyde the musical
"Martha" by Tom Waits
"I Heard That Lonesome Whistle Blow" by Johnny Cash
Thanks in advance for your recommendations!

Hey, that's okay! Maybe next year I'll give the Jekyll and Hyde a spin!
