Depends what you're auditioning for. If it's some kind of musical theatre production, pick a song from a musical, but not a song from the specific musical you are auditioning for. The directors don't like it, because they want to put their stamp on how you sing it. If you're auditioning for a band, then sing something that speaks to their style. If you're auditioning for a school, pick something with some range and depth. Avoid picking songs that everybody else will do - (no Titanic or the big hit singles of the last year). Most important, pick something that really showcases your strengths and boosts your confidence. If you are allowed two songs, choose two contrasting styles.

That completely depends on your voice. I would suggest doing a song you love and can put expression into. Something from an actual musical would be fine.

It also depends on what kind of musical it is. Your best bet would to be to find out who wrote it, find out the kind of piece you would be singing, and find a similar piece from another of their plays and sing that. Again make sure it fits your voice and shows the best quality of your singing. And know it well, ahead of time. Good luck.
