Help picking a song..

[milkabum]

Okay. I've gained up the confidence to actually try out for the school talent show, but have no idea which song to choose. It will only be my vocals, no music, because the whole point is for people to hear ME sing and not someone else. I've narrowed it down to a few songs, but I'm completely open for suggestions. Here they are:

• A Moment Like This (Kelly Clarkson)
• Breakaway (Kelly Clarkson)
• I Wanna Know You Like That (Nikki Flores)
• I Got You (Nikki Flores)
• This Girl (Nikki Flores)

A friend told me Nikki Flores sounds a lot like me, so I'll probably choose one of her songs. I really like "I Wanna Know You Like That". I could probably listen to it forever and never get tired of it. I can really relate to "This Girl" though.. Nikki Flores is one of my all time favorite singers, so yeah.. well it's up to you guys to choose now! Please give suggestions as well, but nothing too strong. I choose Kelly Clarkson and Nikki Flores because they're both young, so I can pull their songs off myself. Nothing too strong and remember, only my vocals! The talent show is in may, auditions in April but I really want to get a head start so I don't mess up in the audition. If I can, I'll also try to get the kareoke version so I can sing with music - but not with the artist's voice. Please listen to the songs, I really need help!

Thanks peoples,
Emily

I am a singer myself. It's always good to sing a song you enjoy and can relate to so you can sing it with emotion and not get bored of it.
I've sung 'a moment like this' and it's a good talent show-y song.
But if you can relate to one of the other's better then pick that.
This may not have been much of a help but if you need a singer's opinion drop me a PM or something!

Well, I LOVE Kelly Clarkson....so I picked her -- and 1 of my favorite songs by her is "Breakaway." But then again my favorite song is "Walk away" from Kelly Clarkson .

If you dont know the song (I just feel like posting this ), here it is!

You've got your mother and your brother
Every other undercover
Tellin' you what to say
You think I'm stupid
But the truth is
That it's cupid, baby
Lovin' you has made me this way
So before you point your finger
Get your hands off of my trigger
Oh yeah
You need to know this situation's getting old
And now the more you talk
The less I can say, oh

I'm looking for attention
Not another question
Should you stay or should you go?
Well, if you don't have the answer
Why you still standin' here?
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Just walk away
Just walk away
Just walk away

I waited here for you
Like a kid waiting after school
So tell me how come you never showed?
I gave you everything
And never asked for anything
And look at me
I'm all alone
So, before you start defendin'
Baby, stop all your pretendin'
I know you know I know
So what's the point in being slow
Let's get the show on the road today
Hey

I'm looking for attention
Not another question
Should you stay or should you go?
Well, if you don't have the answer
Why you still standin' here?
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Just walk away
Just walk away
Just walk away

I wanna love
I want a fire
To feel the burn
My desires
I wanna man by my side
Not a boy who runs and hides
Are you gonna fight for me?
Die for me?
Live and breathe for me?
Do you care for me?
'Cause if you don't then just leave

I'm looking for attention
Not another question
Should you stay or should you go?
Well, if you don't have the answer
Why you still standin' here?
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Just walk away

If you don't have the answer
Walk away
Just walk away
Then just leave
Yeah yeah
Walk away
Walk away
Walk away....

Walk Away isn't good without music. It'll only be my vocals.
