ABCs, twinkle twinkle little star, row row row your boat, B-I-N-G-O, ok I'm done. sorry. go to a music or CD store, ask where the accompaniement tracks are and find a CD that has a only music track, a music and backup vocals track, and a full voice track so you can practice. also find one in your range, they let you listen to them in most stores. you can also ask what the sales person recommends for you. break a leg!

The play is probably Aladdin, not Alladin. If it's based on the Disney movie, use a disney song with a similar range. Perhaps 'Someday my prince will come' or 'A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes'.
It's usually good to stick with the same genre when picking music - but it's very very frowned upon to sing something from the actual show.

I am going to assume this is the Disney version of Aladdin, which requires a very contemporary musical theatre style. You could look for music from any Disney show...Beauty and the Beast ("Home"), Mulan ("Reflection"), or Anastastia (not Disney, but "Jouney to the Past" is an easy song). Otherwise look at contemporary musical theatre songs at a local music store or online. Sheetmusicdirect.com and Sunhawk.com are two sights that let you purchase music online and print it out. Even better, they will let you change the key to whatever you want and automatically transpose it for you. Plus, the site will play the song after you purchase it so you can sing along with it to learn the music. I think most songs are $3.95 to $5.95. If you google "Sheet Music" or "Transpose Sheet Music", you can find even more sites with more songs to purchase online. Whatever you do, though, I would NOT sing something from the radio as someone else suggested...this is theatre, not American Idol. Break a leg!! :-)

Um, if it doesn't have to be a song from that play, I have always thought "The Farmer and the Cowman Should Be Friends" from "Oklahoma!" had an extremely singable melody - in a major key - and anyone can sing it since it seems to be gender-neutral, if I remember right. I don't know if the music from your play is in a minor key. If so, you might want to find a song in a minor key instead, like "Sunrise, Sunset" from "Fiddler on the Roof."

Easy. One of the biggest romantic songs of the disney movie. "A Whole New World." Find an opposite sex partner to sing the other parts, and act out the song together as you are performing. This will give you an opportunity to show your acting ability while singing.

First you should know what vocal part you can sing.
Then you can narrow it down to what type of song you need (e.g. ballad, up-tempo, love song, choral, etc.)
Then just start listening and researching!
Best of luck!

all i can say is pick a song that you know all the words to, that is on the radio. well ok you don't have to know all the words. but if you know most of them then you can look on the internet for the rest. but one that is recent and on the radio, and of course that u know
