For some reason the song: "Fame" from uh.. "Fame" was the first idea that came to me. I don't know how good a choice that is, though.
The songs from "Fame" make me thing of "Grease" to some extent. "In L.A." also might be a good audition song, I guess.

There are a ton of songs in Cy Coleman's "The Life" that would be great. I've also always thought "cooties" from hairspray was a good parallel song to "Sandra Dee."

Thank you both.
But I was wonder if you know of any parallel songs to "There are worse Things I could do"
That seems to be the song they are worrieing about more. But i think about Cooties.
And I will look up "The Life" thank you so much!

Mazie La Bird kinda seems like a Rizzo, maybe you could look up some
songs she sings! or you could think of a bad girl charater from a musical
that you know well and see what solos she sings!

If you want a good parallel to 'Worse Things' do "I Know the Truth" from Aida. If you want a good parallel to "Sandra Dee" you could do a mean "Turn Back O Man" from Godspell, it's very sexy and belty and like "Sandra Dee" its a commentary on society at the present time.
