How good are you at singing?

[Offworlder_v1legacy]

I've been singing for 9 years. My best styles to sing are croning (Sinatra, Crosbey), Jazz, and rock, kinda good at screaming.

Apparently quite good, but far from brilliant and no chance of making a career from it. People are confused if they see an ugly person singing well. It doesn't look good, but it's making a nice sound!? That's why SuBo was so popular.
I sang in one of my performances, but the other person singing was a soprano so I felt awful. The singing teacher did say I had a "very unique voice with a sweet tone to it."
I'm not recording myself, recordings sound awful :|

EDIT:
I found this which is an embarrassment but the only thing I have where I don't sound like a strangled cat. Forgot the lyrics and got some of them wrong, so I wouldn't listen to the whole thing.

I can sing pretty good. So I always get stuck with vocals on Guitar Hero and the like. But I don't like singing in front of others really, I just sing when I'm home alone. I leave the singing to those who can't sing, but choose to anyway.

 

[zombiesinc]

My talent for singing ranges between horrid and meh.

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Very good.

I am not good at many things in life, but singing is one of the few I've gotten great at.

 

[Fraught]

No please no...

I am just utterly TERRIBLE.... I make small children cry with my singing

I'm pretty much this. Well, my voice may not be that horrible, but I can't sing in tune for shit. Well, actually, I can on some easier songs, but overall, I'm not that good a singer.

 

[Malkavian]

I'm not a pro, and I would never be. But I am told that I sing alright, to the point where people can, sometimes, enjoy to listen.

I'd say decent.

I usually do the vocals when playing Rock Band with friends (although thats mostly because i know most lyrics) and they told me i'm kinda good (wich may be a lie). And i know that it's not worth much, but i can reach 100% on Medium and Hard on a bunch of songs (not Rap ones, mind), so i guess i can at least hold a tone.

That said, i have pretty much no vocal range at all, anything that is sung too high or two low for me will end in disaster.

I'm about at this level myself, though I could 100% some songs on Expert back when I was in America. (No Rock Band in Japan, grrr!) Apparently my voice is pretty good, but I'm not a very good showman when I sing. I worry so much about hitting the right note that I don't put much feeling into it, which seems unusual because I've been known for being a very good public speaker and pretty good actor. I just can't translate what I do speaking or acting into music and feel comfortable that I'm still singing right. But if I'm just standing in front of the audience without doing anything, I sound great!

But... but.... your avatar: it filled me with such shining hope!

As for me, I'm an adequate singer, but an excellent vocal mimic; on my own, I've been the sort that could fill out a choir, IF you really needed a warm body that wasn't going to set off a cat. However, I've noticed that I'm capable of sounding a great deal like OTHER singers.

I do a relatively good Johnny Cash impression, for instance, and I can do the whole 'country twang' rather well. Mind you, I can do impressions of most of South Park, and a host of other cartoon characters.

 

[TriggerHappyAngel]

I am always the singer when me and my friends play Guitar Hero ... they never complain and i never get low scores so i certainly don't fail at singing

 

[FieryTrainwreck]

I can sing anything by Elliot Smith. Other stuff... less so...

 

[Zhukov]

I'm flat-out tone deaf. Couldn't hold a tune to save my life.

 

[PayneTrayne]

I'm decent and have the balls to do it infront of people. Also, I throw mad hammers with my rappin' skillz....aka I can talk really really fast.

 

[Hordji]

I sing Murder Intentions songs well but that's about it. I've tried recording me singing some annotations of an autopsy once and it was not good.

 

[Renegade723]

expert on rock band 2. so not that good.

 

[DSK-]

I used to be a pretty good singer at primary, doing all the hymns and what not. Then puberty came knocking and from there it's been extremely hard to sing along to something and keep in tune. Like strangling a cat (Not Kitten mind <3)

 

[Devious Boomer]

I can sing pretty well. Several people keep telling me to join the Talent Quest, but I keep declining since I don't like those types of things.
It's one of my only strengths but unfortunately it's mostly gone underappreciated and yet, the people who sound like cats being dragged across the floor get the wide-sweeping accolades.
I could probably double as a voice actor bar the frequent colds and the stupid whistling sound my teeth sometimes make when I speak.

 

[SideburnsPuppy]

I'm tuneful, but my voice is horrible. What I mean by that is that I know almost perfectly what I should be singing, and it pains me to hear people singing out of tune, but I can't sing well myself.

This. My voice isn't terrible, but nothing special. If I try to sing while playing an instrument, then it's terrible.

 

[DemonicVixen]

What it says. How good are you at singing? Myself, I can sing so well I sound like a pro. Not a pro that's very nice to listen to, mind you, but nevertheless a pro.

love your modesty but where is the proof hun... lol

As for me, i cant say i can sing but i have been told that with the right type of song and the right boost of self confidence, i can actually stay in tune and sing quite well. Im not planning to blow my own horn as the above has done, instead i say only that i can sing but i know im not as good as many and it all depends on the songs. Not too high, not too low.
