Performance tip

When rehearsing Welcome to Paradise, plan a breath within the longest line, which is about 14 words. That preparation will keep Welcome to Paradise from flattening into one dynamic level.

Recommendation

Should you sing it?

Welcome to Paradise makes sense for a singer who can handle room to shape the lines without cramming them and sell the lyric’s point of view. It has some repeated lines to anchor the arrangement. Plan to carry the verses yourself; this is not rated as a dependable full-room singalong.
