VoiceMale Song Selection

Alright, so here's how this works:

For each of your top 4-6 songs, send me (Jordan) an .mp3, and fill in one of your spots. You can copy/paste additional templates to add more songs, or delete ones that you don't need.

For each song you see listed, edit this page to reflect whether you're in favor of it (+), neutral (/), or against it (-). Until you do so, there will just be a (?). Add the names of additional potential soloists/arrangers, and any notes/feelings about it.

Just to make sure everyone can access/edit this page, please vote on fallin':

Sample:

Falling Over You - Rockapella [mp3] Suggested Soloists: Noah/Shuster Potential Arrangers: transcription Adam: + Ben: +  Zippy: +  Noah: +  Jordan: + Shuster: + Aaron: + NOTES: Adam says, "I'm being misquoted--this is a wonderful song, we really ought to sing it." Jordan says, "Listen to the section at 4:43, it's got some really great blah blah blah". Zippy says, "We're not singing this song". Adam's misquoted response to Jordan, "There is no 4:43." Aaron sez: I can't access the file... how will we know whether to sing it or not??

Adam's suggestions:

Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic - The Police [mp3] ''Suggested Soloists: Zippy Potential Arrangers: Adam: + Ben: ? Zippy: ? Noah: ? Jordan: + Shuster: ? Aaron: ? Notes: Adam says, "Love this bell in the beginning. I think this song would be absolutely     fantastic. Total crowd pleaser, with very interesting background potential." Ben says, " ". Zippy says, " ". Noah says, " ". Jordan says, "A solid song that's worth doing,    upbeat/lively. A nice replacement for some of our old faster stuff.". Shuster says, " ". Aaron says, " ".

Holiday in Spain - Counting Crows [mp3] Suggested Soloists: Shuster, Adam Potential Arrangers: Names Adam: + Ben: ? Zippy: / Noah: ? Jordan: ? Shuster: ? Aaron: ? Notes: Adam says, "It starts soft, and I think it builds very well. It is a strong ballad, which     is actually very well known, Zippy.  Regardless, like I said with the previous song, I think it     has a lot of choral potential, maybe like ANGER." Ben says, " ". Zippy says, "It's a little slow, with not that much going on. I guess a good arranger could do something   interesting with it. But it's not really a known song, and it's not overly interesting. It doesn't    really scream "DO IT" to me." Noah says, " ". Jordan says, " ". Shuster says, " ". Aaron says, " ".

I Need Some Sleep - Eels [mp3] Suggested Soloists: Noah Potential Arrangers: Jordan Adam: + Ben: ? Zippy: ? Noah: ? Jordan: + Shuster: ? Aaron: ? Notes: Adam says, "Lots of interesting chords. Probably not the hardest arrangement to make (not     easy, but not hard).  I just like it." Ben says, " ". Zippy says, " ". Noah says, " ". Jordan says, "I like it. It's a tough call on this    one, as the song is so laid back and sleep that I'm not sure what function this song would serve,     but I like it nonetheless, and can hear us singing it. I'm not sure if it would put people to     sleep". Shuster says, " ". Aaron says, " ".

Water Runs Dry - Boyz II Men [mp3] Suggested Soloists: Shuster, Adam, Ben Potential Arrangers: Jordan Adam: + Ben: +  Zippy: ? Noah: ? Jordan: + Shuster: ? Aaron: ? Notes: Adam says, "I really like the sound of Boyz II Men for us. Even though we are white     guys, this group could pull off their music really well.  They blend particularly well, and     translate to a cappella even better, probably because much of their music already is a     cappella.  This would need a very good arrangement, but definitely a crowd pleaser, and     certainly a different kind of sound to add to the set." Ben says, "I've been in favor of    this song for a long time, and I'd love to sing the first verse, which is well within my     range.  I think this would be good as a split solo, similar to Fallin'.". Zippy says, " ". Noah says, " ". Jordan says, "I would very much like to see us sing either this song, or "I will get there" next semester. I've been leaning toward I will get there, which I'd heavily    prefer, but this is certainly worth consideration.". Shuster says, " ". Aaron says, " ".

Jimmy Gets High - Daniel Powter [mp3] Suggested Soloists: Adam Potential Arrangers: Adam, others...   Adam: +  Ben: ? Zippy: ? Noah: ? Jordan: Shuster: ? Aaron: ? Notes: Adam says, "I love the backgrounds. I feel like I have a strong falsetto, and I can really     hit the part.  But certainly others should listen to this, and try out for the solo if they feel     good about it.  Again, the backgrounds grow, and I hear a lot of things I would like to do with     this." Ben says, " ". Zippy says, " ". Noah says, " ". Jordan says, " ". Shuster says, " ". Aaron says, " ".
