I know it would be strange but for a blade singer would the best Weapon to use be a Quarter staff or club? If you get Shillelagh from something then you can Attack at 17 you would do 2d6+int first attack and turestrike for 2d6+int+3d6.
Does this make the best weapon for a blade singer as it would be a 1 hanned weapon and you can get Shillelagh with out multiclassing?

That does sound pretty good, though keep in mind Shillelagh and Bladesong each need a bonus action to activate, so you will be less effective on the first turn of a fight unless you were able to activate one or the other of them before the fight started.

The easiest way to get Shillelagh without multiclassing is probably the Magic Initiate feat (with the Druid option). You can take one of the backgrounds that provides it (Guide, Moonwell Pilgrim) or play a Human and take it as your extra Origin Feat.

I would argue that you can make this even better by getting weapon masteries and a fighting style (through feats or by taking a Fighter dip) so you can benefit from the Nick weapon mastery. At level 17, you could carry a Club and a Scimitar. After getting Shillelagh going you would run up to the enemy to get two attacks with your Club, then another attack with your Scimitar thanks to Nick. If your bonus action is free, you would be able to make one more club attack with your bonus action thanks to Song of Victory (the True Strike you cast during your Attack action is a spell with a casting time of one action). Couple this with an upcast Conjure Minor Elementals on round 1 for some truly obscene damage. Your combat would look like this:
As a level 17 wizard, wouldn’t you rather cast meteor swarm? Or horrid wilting, or prismatic spray? Heck, at a total of 7d6+(intx2), assuming you hit both times, you’re probably better off going with a fireball that catches at least 2 targets.
