Solo Excerpts

If you are interested in auditioning for a solo, here are the different excerpts you can sing for me (remember, this is totally optional!):

4th grade - Stayin' Alive by the Bee Gees

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk,

I'm a woman's man: no time to talk.

Music loud and women warm, I've been kicked around

Since I was born.

And now it's all right. It's OK.

And you may look the other way.

We can try to understand

The New York Times' effect on man.

Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother,

You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.

Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin',

And we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.

Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive.

Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive.

3rd Grade - Blame it on the Boogie by The Jackson 5

My baby's always dancin' and it wouldn't be a bad thing

But I don't get no lovin' and that's no lie

We spent the night in Frisco at every kinda disco

From that night I kissed our love goodbye

Don't blame it on the sunshine

Don't blame it on the moonlight

Don't blame it on the good times

Blame it on the boogie

2nd Grade - Signed, Sealed, Delivered by Stevie Wonder

Like a fool I went and stayed too long

Now I'm wondering if your love's still strong

Oo baby, here I am,

Signed, sealed delivered, I'm yours

Then that time I went and said goodbye

Now I'm back and not ashamed to cry

Oo baby, here I am,

Signed, sealed delivered, I'm yours

Here I am baby

Oh, signed, sealed delivered, I'm yours

1st Grade - Dancing Queen by ABBA

You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life

See that girl, watch that scene, digging the Dancing Queen

Friday night and the lights are low

Looking out for the place to go

Where they play the right music, getting in the swing

You come in to look for a king

K5 - ABC by The Jackson 5

*There are a couple options for K5, pick one of the following verses

You went to school to learn girl

Things you never, never knew before

Like "I" before "E" except after "C"

And why 2 plus 2 makes 4

Now, now, now

I'm gonna teach you

(Teach you, teach you)

All about love girl

(All about love)

Sit yourself down, take a seat

All you gotta do is repeat after me

Reading, writing, arithmetic

Are the branches of the learning tree

But without the roots of love everyday girl

Your education ain't complete

Tea-Tea-Teacher's gonna show you

(She's gonna show you)

How to get an "A" (na-na-na-naaaaaa)

How to spell "me", "you", add the two

Listen to me, baby

That's all you got to do
