Good jukebox musical songs for...?

Hello! In my musical theatre class we need a song from multiple musical styles, including jukebox musicals. I've never really been a big fan of jukebox musicals so I don't know much about it. Additionally, I'm not really a powerhouse voice. I specialize more in mixing so not a legit belt or legit head voice. Mixing is my strong suit. I can easily chest to about an E or F4 (pretty low haha I'm not really a belter) but I can take my mix up to about a D#5. I'm having trouble finding a song. I was wondering if anyone know of some songs that may fit that description? Only one problem: they can't be from All Shook Up. :( I'm not sure why; probably because it's a popular one... Anyways, thanks!! Help is greatly appreciated!!

    You need to take voice lessons to learn how to use ALL your voice. If you can't use more than one register, that will extremely limit you in MOST musicals (not just "jukebox" ones).

    Just sayin'.

    But here is an answer to your query:

    If any sounds interesting to you, you'll need to investigate further to find out if which songs suit you. Go to YouTube if you need to hear a full performance, or locate some sheet music from a LEGAL source like Musicnotes.com where you can preview the vocal range in the song (you might have to download the software to get fully preview and even change keys, but you only pay if you want to download and print music). Many songs can be found in anthology series, or songbooks, which may be borrowed from a library.
