Me Singing

« on: 07/27/10 at 10:57 PM »

So I used to be huge into singing when I was a teenager, and sang in competitions and stuff and got compliments all the time and blah blah blah.

Then I stopped because it's kind of a cutthroat bitchy atmosphere and I was... a rebellious teen.

And I lost my voice pretty much completely, and it's been a sort of weight on my shoulders ever since. A big regret, and also so so sad that I can't sing anymore. It's so bad that if someone compliments a female singer, I get angry and jealous and struggle to hide it.

Very immature of me, I know, and totally uncalled for. And maybe I wasn't even that good! I don't have any recordings of myself back then, I'm just going by the awards I won and such.

------

BUT ANYWAY.
Today I was just singing and trying to sound OK and this is an excerpt from that.

I'm wondering what you think and if I have that capability to maybe improve again with practice?
I guess what I really want is compliments, but I don't want fake compliments, so I'm asking for honest opinions instead and HOPING people think its good.

I think it's very nice, just the words are a bit unclear (maybe the mic though). But I like it!

I like your voice, that's for sure! Cheesy

I used to sing during family parties back when I was a little girl. I stopped because I felt that it was too childish. How I miss those carefree days *heart*

I like it! I think the song suits your voice really well, or what I've heard of it, at least.

I really like your voice a lot! I think it would be completely worth it for you to potentially take lessons or train or something. I love it because it's sweet, but different. You don't sound like every other singer out there.

You definitely have good tone. I think what you need to work on is the same thing *I* need to work on, actually, which is supporting it a bit more from the diaphragm to produce a richer, more lasting sound.
