Solitaire

Clay Aiken

Solitaire works as a pop selection rather than an automatic party anthem. It is more likely to land with people who already know Clay Aiken. Treat it as a performance piece, not a guaranteed group singalong.

Useful detail

Performance tip

Solitaire will land more clearly if you use the short lines deliberately; clean releases will keep them from sounding disconnected. It will give Solitaire a clearer arc from the first section to the last.

Recommendation

Should you sing it?

With Solitaire, 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 some repeated lines to anchor the arrangement 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.
