If I Can't Have you, from Saturday Night Fever (at least the way Orfeh sang it)


Paciencia y fe, from In the heights.


And Simple Joys from Pippin too.


Hope I was able to help!

When I think of songs with belts at the end, I think of Shirley Bassey.  (Don't try and mimic her performances though, no one can do Shirley)


I am what I am - La Cage


What I did for love - Chorus Line


Where do I begin? - From the show Love Story (doesn't end in a belt, but has some spectacular moments that are made to impress)


 


Ultimately these songs may not work very well for your age/personality/performing style, but I would suggest looking at some of the great belters for inspiration - (in no particular order) Patti Lupone, Barbara Streisand, Linda Eder Idina Menzel etc. etc.


I would suggest not doing anything well known, it's so unforgiving trying to put your performance against something widely known.  Trying something a little more obscure...


If you can do comedy:
Nobody Does It Like Me - SeeSaw


Dont want to be here - ordinary days


Serious:
If I Could've Been - Working


Stamina:
Man of La Mancha (I, Don Quizote) - Man of La Mancha


All the acting:
Time Heals Everything - Mack and Mabel
