January 27, 200719 yr I'm a college baseball/football player. My buddy that lives right next to me (met him through baseball), I discovered is an amazing singer. Anywho, he came over, I jammed on the piano for a bit, and he sang along. I left my door open (my place smells that of rotten eggs), and we actually had a couple people poke their heads in and tell us we were really good. So we put our heads together, and decided we should start up a little band, just us two for now. However, we need a list of songs that can be performed with just a piano and vocals Currently we have: 100 Years - Foo Fighters Right Here Waiting - Richard Marx I can't make you Love me - ??????? So Sick - Ne-yo I'll Be - Edward McCain We need more songs tho. I honestly feel if we get 15 or so songs that we can work on, we can get a record deal somewhere. I'll record some songs and upload them when I get the chance to, so in the meantime, my fellow tip.iters can help me out by giving me some piano/vocal songs! VID Here is my singer a couple years ago (he's been professionally trained for a couple years since this) http://download.yousendit.com/33FCB65833043513 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4qCQgD7XoM It's the only vid I have of him.. just to give you a general idea Keep the song lists coming people! - Only character in Runescape History maxed out in RSC and RS2
January 27, 200719 yr it all depends how the singers voice can range try elton john or billy joel OT: Luring is sooo easy to avoid. That's what those nice signposts are for.
January 27, 200719 yr Author He is a tenor. His range stretches up to 9 notes above middle C (to D) - Only character in Runescape History maxed out in RSC and RS2
January 27, 200719 yr Sounds cool man, best of luck. Try and write some originals as well. Getting a record deal isn't all about what you can play, it's what you can write (assuming your not going down the whole superficial 'i'll write your songs for you' pop culture).
January 27, 200719 yr Try busking somehow with a piano, that's always fun and interesting to see what kind of interest you can generate. :) As for piano songs, look at David Gray stuff, Coldplay or Beatles classics. Try doing some covers of songs you like for piano and voice. Experiment, don't just repeat oldies. "Da mihi castitatem et continentam, sed noli modo"
January 27, 200719 yr Hey Jude!! :shock: With so many trees in the city you could see the spring coming each day until a night of warm wind would bring it suddenly in one morning. Sometimes the heavy cold rains would beat it back so that it would seem that it would never come and that you were losing a season out of your life. But you knew that there would always be the spring as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person had died for no reason. In those days though the spring always came finally but it was frightening that it had nearly failed.
January 27, 200719 yr If you could do Ordinary People by John Legend and not butcher it, I would love you forever. SHH HUT YUH MUH. DERKHED.

January 28, 200719 yr You could try the Scissor Sisters' cover of Take Me Out by Franz Ferdinand. It sounds great on piano :) This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you.
February 5, 200719 yr Yeah, basically what others have said. He's pretty good, actually. I bet you guys will do well.
February 7, 200719 yr I believe Stairway To Heaven would be possible with just a piano and vocals, wouldn't really capture the true essence of the song, but meh.. 99 Slayer since August 2007.
February 8, 200719 yr Author try transcribe some jack johnson over to piano or dave mathews? Doing such a thing is very difficult. I managed to learn the accoustic version of "Thug Mansion" on the piano, but it took aaaagggggeessss. Thanks very much for all the songs people :) You've been very helpful! keep em coming =D - Only character in Runescape History maxed out in RSC and RS2
February 12, 200719 yr i know a lot of people dont like them, but fall out boy's new cd has a pretty decent piano/vocal song called "golden"
February 13, 200719 yr Can't go wrong with Jamie Cullum. That's basically what you'll probably sound like.
February 13, 200719 yr Author Can't go wrong with Jamie Cullum. That's basically what you'll probably sound like. We were actually looking at perfecting "these are the days". His voice is almost identical and I am a jazz pianist when solo - Only character in Runescape History maxed out in RSC and RS2

His voice is almost identical and I am a jazz pianist when solo told ya ;) I would actually love it if you covered 'Frontin'' even though it's a cover already, it just sounds so cool.
