Select one of the songs listed below, find a recording of it online that you like, then listen for phrasing. Locate the lyrics and create a lyric sheet that you can mark up, either on a device or on a paper printout. With the lyric sheet at hand, place checkmarks at the places where the singer took a breath.

Instructions:

Locate the lyrics for your chosen song, either by getting the sheet music or searching online. (Whenever you search online to find lyrics, be sure to check the lyrics against a reputable recording of the song to make sure the lyrics are correct. Copyrighted sheet music will almost always be correct, but free online lyric sites are not always correct...)
Find a recording of the song that you like, and mark up the lyrics, adding a checkmark at each place the singer took a breath.
You do not need to post your markup, but post any questions or thoughts, or to share any recordings that you particularly like, in the Discussions area.
