Picture of theater is love <3

Please vote, to help an upcoming audition of mine, and other future audtioners! Thank you VERY much!

Question:
On an audition, would it be better to sing a song you know and sing really well that is overdone, or a song that is hard and not overdone?

Choices:
Sing an overdone song, that you sing well!
Sing a hard song that isn't overdone!
Sing any song that sounds very good on you overdone or not.
Sing a hard song that shows off your voice, but is iffy when you sing it.

 


this could be the start, of something new<3

For the record, never sing a hard song that sounds iffy when you sing it. If you're going to sing a hard song, know that you can sing it well otherwise don't do it at all. It's much better to do a song you know and showcases your talents, preferrably not overdone.

It is always safer to sing something you know very well. You should try learning songs that AREN'T overdone, and be able to do those well. But in the end, you should do the song you feel best about, and are able to act well. Hope this helps!

Don't forget- connecting to the song is also extremely important (probably understood but not spelled out).


I'm snarky.
