Here is a memorization tip for singers.
Learn your song lyrics as a spoken acting monologue. Be able to recite the lyrics from memory in natural speech. This will help you to communicate the meaning of the words when you sing and make your phrasing more meaningful. It also helps prevent memory slips!
If you can only remember your song lyrics when thinking of the tune as well, you don't know your song well enough to perform it.
Why should you put in this extra work? Amateurs practice until they get it right, professionals practice until they can't get it wrong!
