The RoseBette Midler

The Rose

The Rose is calm and soothing, and it’s a song that really shines when performed, so it should feel great to sing! When you sing it, breath control is key—you’ll want to let it flow as if you’re speaking throughout.

Try not to break it up too much; aim to sing one phrase at a time so it doesn’t sound choppy and keeps a soft, gentle vibe.

Take a deep breath and try connecting the lines smoothly, as if you’re drawing a large circle forward in front of you.

By the way, The Rose is often chosen for karaoke scoring as well.

The melody is easy to remember, so definitely give it a try!
