Performance tip

For You Could Be Happy, map the verse order carefully because the lyric gives you relatively few repeated lines as landmarks. For You Could Be Happy, that detail will matter more than adding extra volume.

Recommendation

Should you sing it?

With You Could Be Happy, do not count on the room to do the work; it is better for a singer ready to own the lyric’s point of view. The song has more changing verse text than repeated hook material and room to shape the lines without cramming them. Plan to carry the verses yourself; this is not rated as a dependable full-room singalong.
