A good musical song for a male 13 year-old.?

Question

My school has a music festival with different events you can enter. I am in my second musical right now at my school and would like to enter the musical category in the music festival. I am having a difficult time finding and choosing a song. My voice hasn't really changed yet either. If someone can point me in the right direction and give a few ideas I'd very much appreciate it.

BONUS: If you could find the sheet music.

Answer 1

If you like musicals, some of the songs from "Oliver" are great for a boy of your age. "Consider yourself, at home., consider yourself, one of the family.." sung by the artful dodger was good. Also "Where is love" by Oliver. You can probably find the songbook for Oliver at the library or music store.

Answer 2

There are Giants in the Sky from Into the Woods would be good.
So would Round-Shouldered Man from the Secret Garden.
Little People out of Les Miserables is short and sweet.
Grow For Me from Little Shop of Horrors could work. It's usually sung by an adult, but whoever plays Seymour usually has a higher voice.
Oliver's already been mentioned, but there are a lot of songs out of it that would work.
Sorry, sheet music isn't an easy thing to come by, and it's near impossible to get it off of the Internet. But break a leg with whichever song you choose!

Answer 3

ANything sung by Jojo in Suessical the Musical. His character is a young boy so the range should fit well. For sheet music, got to sheetmusicplus.com and click on broadway. There will be a huge list of broadway shows and suessical is on there. The book is $20, but, I'm sure well worth the money. Good luck, and have fun singing!!

Answer 4

Old Man River is a nice one.
I like that. You can do whatever you want with it.

Sheet music i do not have.

Lyrics i do.
Here we all work 'long the Mississippi
Here we all work while the white folk play
Pullin' them boats from the dawn till sunset
Gettin' no rest till the judgment day

Don't look up and don't look down
Ya don't dast make the white boss frown
Bend your knees and bow your head
And pull that rope until you're dead

Let me go 'way from the Mississippi
Let me go 'way from the white man boss
Show me that stream called the River Jordan
That's the old stream that I long to cross
(End of intro)

Ol' Man River, that Ol' Man River
He must know somepin', but he don't say nothin'
He just keeps rollin', he keeps on rollin' along

He don't plant taters, and he don't plant cotton
And them what plants 'em is soon forgotten
But Ol' Man River, jest keeps rollin' along

You and me, we sweat and strain
Bodies all achin' and wracked with pain
Tote that barge and lift that bale
Ya get a little drunk and ya lands in ja-ail

I gets weary and so sick of tryin'
I'm tired of livin', but I'm feared of dyin'
And Ol' Man River, he just keeps rollin' along

Answer 5

A beautiful and haunting song from Sweeney Todd, which would sound great with a boy tenor voice is "Nothing's Gonna Harm You," sung by the character Tobey. Should be available at your town central library.
