Maybe give some free advice about: Theater?
NEAR mezzo-soprano? Do you mean you're closer to a low soprano or a high alto? Well, I'll give you easy songs for both of them since I'm not sure.
Low Soprano:
"For Good" from "Wicked"
"I Wish It So" from "Juno" (the sheet music is currently unavailable---you can get the soundtrack of "Juno" on fynsworthalley.com. Don't frown this off!!! It's a really great song, getting the CD is worth every penny and Fynsworth Alley is a really good record company---they only sell online)
"Memory" from "Cats"
"Corner of the Sky" from "Pippin"
"Un Moto Di Gioia" from "The Marriage of Figaro"
High Alto:
"Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again" from "The Phantom of the Opera"
"Buenos Aires" from "Evita"
"Don't Cry for me Argentina" from "Evita"
"And All that Jazz" from "Chicago"
Hope this helped! Drop a word in my inbox if it's not enough

what i did is sign up for voice lessons somewhere. The person should be able to give you songs for you to practice.

try starting out with sightsinging its like singing and reading notes and stuff. it really helps in the long run not matter what you sing. its like reading instrument music with your voice

i sing! lol well depending on your style of music, you could sing to kelly clarkson or leann rimes. even jojo or mariah carey. You could also try singing to christina aguilera or martina mcbride.
Those are the ones i usually practice to. It trains your voice pretty good.

I'm a soprano but I can try to help you. You could practice on songs that are slow. I would suggest buying the American Idol CD and singing some of those songs. But you can try Mariah Carey's We belong together. You could also try D.H.T's Listen to your Heart.

from child like plays!! i do this at camp! "i wont grow up" form peter pan, "castle on a cloud" from les miserables "alone in the universe" from suessical....take the plays and look for some other songs too!! have fun!!!!

well i know a lot of excercises you can do...see how high/low you can go etc, but for songs try simple things... and i know it sounds stupid, but things like "Mary Had a Little Lamb" just to test your voice. and then try things that are more complex... Colors of the Wind... God Help the Outcasts... Disney stuff is actually really good practice for a voice... and then finally to Broadway with Dont Rain on My Parade, When Youre Good to MaMa, All That Jazz...

"near" mezzo-soprano? On the high or low side?
I've never sang in a "formal" sense - singing just sort of got thrust on me because no one else would in the band I was in. Then it was just something I did in the car for many years until recently we tried playing in a band-like situation again.
Really, as far as particular songs? Pick anything that you have interest in singing and seems to fit your range decently - no need to go after something that's an octave too high unless you feel like taking it all down an octave.
Anyway, there's about a billion songs out there to choose from - perhaps pick a genre, like showtunes, folk, classic rock, modern pop, death metal, jazz, etc... and just try a few things. No harm in trying, and especially no harm in listening.
