View Full Version : My Singing Voice

As a soft spoken nerdy type, one would never think that I have a good singing voice, but somehow, I do. And I'm not just being an egomainiac here, I've gotten good feedback from people, including my mock trial coach, who encouraged me to sing a few stanzas from "Royals-Lorde" as a way to bust my nervousness. I kind of like singing actually, so I have some questions for you.
On a scale of 1-10, how good is your singing voice?
Is there anyway to eliminate voice cracks when singing?
And Should I pursue my "talent?

I don't think you can control the cracks in your voice as they may come up unexpectedly (that's part of puberty), but I say you should stay hydrated and drink loads of water, make sure you do warmups using simple exercises (you can search them up on YouTube, or you can have a vocal coach teach you) before you sing. Avoid dairy products and sugary drinks.
If you have a passion for it, go for it!!

Pursue it if you're into it!
As for me, I'm meh. I'd give myself a 5. I can sing Riptide by Vance Joy but my voice does crack a lot.

I think I sing fairly well. I have been part of my schools choir and elite acapella group and I have perfect pitch. Eliminate cracks by warming up the vocal chords before singing and lubricating the trachea by drinking something like lemon and honey, and once you think you're good enough, just go for it.

I'd rate myself like a solid 4 but a lot of people think I'm pretty good?

I give it an 9 just because I'm not fully trained on things.

I'd give myself a 9. Professionally trained vocal major but I still have plenty I can learn. When it comes to cracks, you just need to work through them. Train your voice to work around them. My voice cracked a lot when I was expanding my range, which is now three octaves.
If you love it, pursue it. It's worth it.
Also, your singing voice does not mature until you're at least in your 30s so your voice will shift and change long into your 20s. Where you may crack now, you won't in five years but you may crack somewhere else. It's just constant practice and training.
