What are some songs to sing to find your range? And also practice with!

I’m a complete novice at singing, so I’m sorry for my lack of technical terms. I want to strengthen my voice and figured the best way to do that is actually sing! But what is the best way to choose a song to work on? I feel like I shouldn’t immediately jump to Whitney Houston and start with something less challenging haha. Are there any songs you really enjoy practicing with? Are there any songs that give you a good ‘vocal workout’ ?
