Recommendation

Should you sing it?

Use “A Song for You” when you can make a slow, exposed ballad feel personal from the first line. The melody is open and unforgiving, with nowhere to hide weak phrasing. It is a weaker choice if you rely on crowd energy or are not ready for a serious vocal centerpiece.
