I'm looking for a tenor/alto/belter duet for two high school students. Comedic or dramatic, off the beaten path would be great. Fire away!

"I Turned the Corner" from Thoroughly Modern Millie
"Unworthy of Your Love" from Assasssins
"Sue Me" from Guys and Dolls (if that counts as a duet)
"The Last Night of the World" or "Sun and Moon" from Miss Saigon
"All The Wasted Time" from Parade (might be soprano-y, I dunno)
"Our Children" from Ragtime (might be soprano-y, I dunno)
Anything from RENT pretty much, haha.
"You are My Home" from The Scarlet Pimpernel
"The Next Ten Minutes" from The Last Five Years
"Wick" from The Secret Garden
"As Long as You're Mine" from Wicked
Jimmy, what are you doing here in the middle of the night? It's almost 9 PM!

Here are a list of duets for you to consider. Since I don't really know the exact ranges of the kids involved some of these songs may not work. However, without actually looking at the music I am pretty sure they could:

-- "Salzburg" from Bells are Ringing (comic)
-- "People Will Say We're in Love" from Oklahoma!
-- "There Once Was a Man" from The Pajama Game (uptempo)
-- "They Were You" from The Fantasticks
-- "An Old Fashioned Wedding" and "Anything You Can Do" from Annie Get Your Gun (both comic)
-- "Sue Me" from Guys and Dolls (comic)
-- "You're Just in Love" from Call Me Madam
-- "The Sweetest Sounds" from No Strings
-- "I'll Never Fall in Love Again" from Promises, Promises
-- "Small World" from Gypsy

When I think of others I will post them...
"You pile up enough tomorrows, and you'll find you are left with nothing but a lot of empty yesterdays. I don't know about you, but I'd like to make today worth remembering." --Harold Hill from The Music Man
