Performance tip

Before performing Taking Over Me, keep the recurring hook rhythmically identical so listeners can recognize its return. It will give Taking Over Me a clearer arc from the first section to the last.

Recommendation

Should you sing it?

Taking Over Me rewards a singer who knows the lyric well enough to focus on the lyric’s point of view. Its structure offers a clearly recurring hook, while the words have room to shape the lines without cramming them. Plan to carry the verses yourself; this is not rated as a dependable full-room singalong.
