Okay, so my friend and I are singing Girl Next Door by Saving Jane.

Does any one know where, hopefully on the internet or itunes, we can get it with out the lyrics? Or a way to edit the lyrics out. Or what to type in on itunes or google to find it. But I would really apprectiate it if you were to tell me a place where we could get it.

I bought that CD to sing that song too and just a warning...the backup vocals sound really different but if you can get past that then it's an awesome cd. good luck!

Hey, I'm the person who posted the question about triplets and quarter notes in the song "Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again" from the Phantom of the Opera. My friend listened to me sing the song, and she said it sounded too uptight and exact. She said that I should swing it a little to sound more natural. What is swinging and should I do it for this song?

I love that song! Swinging would be like instead of 2 eight notes, it would be a dotted eight note and a sixteenth note. But dont swing it. Try to make the notes flow together more. The song is a love song, you're singing about the one you love, so you'd want it to flow together and looser. Be creative with it and change it to make it sound better.

I'm 13 and about to audition for a musical. We're supposed to prepare a song and a monologue. I've gone through an array of broadway songs. Finally, I listened to "Wishing You Were Somehow Hear Again" from the Phantom of the Opera. It's beautiful! But before I get the sheet music, I need to know; is it a difficult piece? Vocally demanding? I'm in a very advanced chorus, which means that I can sing a lot, but there's no real way of telling whether this song is too overreaching or not just by listening, you know? If anyone has had any experience with this piece, could I have a few tips?

And PLEASE do not say "go see a vocal teacher/go take a voice lesson/idk lol hope i helped." Even though I'm in an advanced chorus, I can't afford a voice lesson. I know that puts me at a disadvantage, but that's JUST LIFE.

I have the sheet music and it's really easy. But you need to be able to sing really high notes and have a good range. I've only had two years of choir and I was able to sing that song in my first year. Good luck!
