Good A Capella Solo
I want to enter a contest that requires me to send in a tape of me singing a song. It doesn't specify if you're supposed to use an accompaniment or not, so i want to do it A Cappella to make sure they hear my voice. I want to do a soft rock song, like Pieces of Me by Ashlee Simpson, which I'd like to do but I'm not sure if it would sound good a cappella. Does anyone have any ideas?

Maybe give some free advice about: Music?
Well if your that good of a singer that you can be in a contest, im sure you'd sound great doing anything accapello. I would actually reccomend something less famous like from a broadway musical. This way the judges might not know the song and you wouldn't be comparred to a famous singer

Breakaway would be better, I think. I would prob. do a cappella then do one with an accompaniment like 30 seconds later on the tape, that way if they leave the tape on longer to see if there is more they will hear it w/ one.

Wow.. a cappella?? You'Re a bRave soldieR!! And, honestly... I definitely would not suggest singing an Ashlee Simpson song, soRRie. And I say if you'Re consideRing Kelly ClaRkson, the only song you SHOULD be consideRing is "A Moment Like This". Why not tRy "Amazing GRace"?? "Amazing GRace" is an incRedible song!! OR betteR yet.. JEWEL'S "FOOLISH GAMES", "I'M SENSITIVE", "NEAR YOU ALWAYS" and "HANDS" [which is found on the 'SpiRit' album] would ALLL be EXCELLENT choices!!!!!!! Now, Jewel has a VERY distinctive voice, but I specifically went thRough some of heR music tRying to find a suitable song that can be done by anyone. If you don't have heR C.D., get you can go to [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) and heaR FREE 30 second sound clips.
*Hopefully this has been of at least *SOME* help to you!! And whateveR song you decide to peRfoRm, I wish you the VERY BEST of luck!!

pieces of me is a no-go. i was in a competition and i sang ashlee and it was one of my worst performances vocally. i would try something like "seasons of love" from rent or "for good" from wicked (musicals) they really show off your voice. umm any other song by kelly clarkson is good. i recommend "beautiful disaster". "breathe" is really good....i see someone already said that. good luck n hope i helped! <3

More Anna Nalick Lyrics HERE
Artist: Anna Nalick
Album : "Wreck Of The Day" (2005)
Song: Breathe (2 AM)
Lyrics :
2 AM and she calls me 'cause I'm still awake,
can you help me unravel my latest mistake,
I don't love him, winter just wasn't my season
Yeah we walk through the doors, so accusing their eyes
Like they have any right at all to critisize,
hypocrites, you're all here for the very same reason
'Cause you can't jump the track,we're like cars on a cable
and life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button girl,
So cradle your head in you hands
And breathe, just breathe,
Woah breathe, just breathe
May he turn 21 on the base at Fort Bliss
Just today he sat down to the flask in his fist,
Ain't been sober, since maybe October of last year.
Here in town you can tell he's been down for a while,
But my God it's so beautiful when the boy smiles,
Wanna hold him, maybe I'll just sing about it.
Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable,
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table.
No one can find the rewind button boys,
So cradle your head in your hands,
And breathe, just breathe,
Woah breathe, just breathe
There's a light at each end of this tunnel, you shout
'Cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
These mistakes you've made, you'll just make them again
If you only try turning around.
2 AM and I'm still awake, writing a song
If I get it all down on paper, its no longer
inside of me, threatening the life they belong to
And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
Cause these words are my diary, screaming out loud
And I know that you'll use them, however you want to
Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable,
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button now
Sing it if you understand.
and breathe, just breathe
woah breathe, just breathe,
oh breathe, just breathe.

Hmm....Well, first off, a cappella rules! Anyway, I think that song would sound pretty decent a capella. Good Luck!!
