Suggestions for songs to sing
I am going to sing accapella at my friends coffee house. So I need music that will sound OK with just vocals, no music. Any suggestions? Old jazzy stuff, newer stuff whatever!

Re: Suggestions for songs to sing
what about that alanis morisette song...the secret one on her first album?
i..went to your room..put on your robe...etc
i forgot the lyrics
Alanis Morissette
Forgive Me Love (Secret Song)
I, went to your house
Walked up the stairs
Opened the door without ringing the bell
Walked down the hall
Into your room
Where I could smell you
And I, I shouldn’t be here
Without permission
I shouldn’t be here…
Would you forgive me love?
If I dance in your shower
Would you forgive me love?
If I laid in your bed
Would you forgive me love?
If I stayed all afternoon oh
I took off my clothes
Put on your robe
Went through your drawers
And I found your cologne
Went down to the den
Found your cd’s
And I played your Joni
And I shouldn’t stay long
You might be home soon
I shouldn’t stay long
Would you forgive me love?
If I dance in your shower
Would you forgive me love?
If I laid in your bed
Would you forgive me love?
If I stayed all afternoon
I burned your incense
I ran a bath
I notice a letter that sat on your desk
It said “hello love”
“I love you so love”
“Meet me at midnight”
And no, it wasn’t my writing,
I better go soon
It wasn’t my writing
So forgive me love
If I cry in your shower
So forgive me love
For the salt in your bed
So forgive me love
If I cry all afternoon oh…

Re: Suggestions for songs to sing
I like Landslide by Fleetwod Mac (Stevie Nicks) the Dixie chicks did a remake:
I took my love and I took it down
Climbed a mountain and turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow-covered hills
'Til the landslide brought it down
Oh, mirror in the sky
-What is love?
-Can the child within my heart rise above?
-Can I sail through the changin' ocean tides
-Can I handle the seasons of my life?
I don't know
Well I've been afraid of changin'
Because I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder, even children get older
And I'm getting older too
So, take my love, take it down
Climb a mountain and turn around
And if you see my reflection in the snow-covered hills
Well the landslide will bring it down
And if you see my reflection in the snow-covered hills
Well the landslide will bring it down
The landslide will bring it down

Re: Suggestions for songs to sing
Can't help lovin' dat Man from Showboat
LOVE LOVE LOVE that song and its absolutely incredible a capella.
And be sure to post when you'll be there to sing (you're talking about the brown dog, right?)- I'm literally RIGHT THERE!
P.S. - you can tell your friend she makes great coffee 
Can't Help Lovin' Dat Man
Oh listen sister,
I love my mister man,
And I can't tell you' why
Dere ain't no reason
Why I should love dat man,
It mus' be sumpin dat de angels done plan.
Fish got to swim, birds got to fly,
I got to love one man till I die.
Can't help lovin' dat man of mine.
Tell me he's lazy, tell me he's slow,
Tell me I'm crazy, (maybe I know).
Can't help lovin' dat man of mine.
When he goes away,
Dat's a rainy day,
And when he comes back dat day is fine,
De sun will shine!
He kin come home as late as can be,
Home without him ain't no home to me,
Can't help lovin' dat man of mine.
De chimney's smokin'
De roof is leakin' in,
But he don't seem to care.
Dere ain't no reason why I should love dat man.
And why do you love that man?
It mus' be sumpin' dat de angels done plan.
Fish got to swim, While de birds fly,
Birds got to fly, Till the world dies
I got to love My gal loves me;
One man till I die. Dat's why she's
Can't help lovin' True gal of mine.
Dat man of mine. She may be lazy
Tell me he's lazy, and slow as cold
Tell me he's slow, Molasses, I know,
Tell me I'm crazy, Can't help lovin'
(maybe I know). Dat gal of mine.
Can't help lovin' When I goes away
Dat man of mine. Dat's lovin
When he goes away, All de rainy days,
Dat's a rainy day, Dat's loving.
And when he comes back An' when I comes
Dat day is fine, Back' dat day is fine,
De sun will shine!
