Do you have a nice singing voice?

[micki76]

I recently discovered that we have a VERY vocally talented member here at PT (I've heard her recordings and WOW!) and wondered if anyone else sings?

I'm totally jealous of anyone who can sing well. I sing often and loud (usually in the car, so I'm sure I look moronic), but I sound like I'm in pain. But I love to do it, so I'll continue.

So do you sing? Are you good or do you just enjoy it, like me?

I used to sing not too bad when I was much younger. Actually my ex-husband and me in the mid of the seventies used to sing at parties, all that Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen stuff plus French chansons. He played the guitar and I was singing

My voice is no longer very good but I still like to sing

[pitc9]

Yes, I sing!
I sang all through high school.
I just sang When You Say Nothing at All, by Alison Krause at my friend's wedding in July. She had it copied on to a DVD for me!

I sing kareokee (that word may be spelled wrong, I am sorry) at bars all the time. I have everyone telling me I should be doing something with my voice. But I just don't have the "image" or the confidence. I sing to myself in the car all the time. I don't listen to the radio or anything... I just sing!

I sing to my hubby when ever we are slow dancing... he loves it!

HECK NO - I'm awful at singing! But I still belt it out in my car.

I've always said, if I could be anyone for a day, I'd be either Martina McBride or Alison Krauss. I'm so jealous.

I love to sing. I was in chorus all through school, and auditioned for (and was accepted into) a select singing group in high school called The Madrigals. My voice isn't as strong as I'd like but I've been told it is pretty...

I have a horrible voice. And I am not just saying it to be modest. When I sing to my son, he says "Mommy, please stop, you're ruining the song!" One time, I was singing to my old roomate's cat, and it put it's ears back and started yowling and hissing at me. My roomate had tears in her eyes she was laughing so hard.

I love to sing. I used to sing with my guitar at church but haven't for a long time. Mostly, because I can't play my guitar because of arthritis. I'm not sure I was all that good but no one ran from the room screaming.

I love to sing sometimes I talk to all my friends in song. I wish I could try out for American Idol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My voice is pretty awful, lol. But that doesn't stop me from belting out a song whenever I want.

I LOVE to sing, and I'm a good singer but only with country music. Of course I do sing other kinds of songs besides country, but I have a nasal country voice.

I sing lots of kareoke (my grandpa owns a kereoke machine), so I have quite alot of fun. I've always wanted to record myself singing on the internet.

[Uabassoon]

I'm a horrible singer, but that doesn't stop me from singing karaokee! No matter how bad I am, I know there are lots of people worse than me!

[RobiLee]

I can not sing at all. I love to sing though and wish that I could sing AND dance...hehehe.

I love to sing in my car when I am all alone and can really belt it out and I don't care who sees me or how weird I look...lol.

LOL LOL I think so when I'm driving and all the windows are rolled up.
I tried singing at home once.....the cats hid!!

Well - I sing - with a couple of local bands here in the Columbus area - and people pay me for it! I went to school and ended up with a degree in Musical/Theater. The bands I sing with are a Big Band - old standards, really great to 'swing dance', a two-some that is part recorded music part live male/female songs, and a cover band with another girl singer. It is fun with the cover band - we sing alike and family members cannot always tell by the recording who is singing lead vs back up. I love to sing so much that I am also singing with a church group for Christmas, a local singing group for the area of town I live in and other Christmas type events. I used to sing at nursing homes as well, but I started to get really depressed with that one.

If you want - check out www.radiosurfers.net to hear/see the cover band.

I sing. As does pretty much anyone to whom I am genetically connected! My family is all musicians, we always sang the blessing, in parts, in many generations, at Thanksgiving when I was a kid. My mother taught piano and woodwinds, as does my sister now, and my sister was kind enough to marry a tenor in so we can sing 4-part stuff without having to torture a bass or arm-twist an alto. I sing in church every week either in the choir or as a soloist, and have since I was 9, pretty much. I can sing soprano or alto and even tenor in a stretch, depending how low it goes. I sing whenever I get the chance, and sing quietly to my little bunny, too.

When I was a kid, I thought everyone could sing if they just tried, but I now know that, sadly, is not true.
