Do You Like (Or Hate) Your Voice?

[analogdrone]

if i am not particularly strong in one style i like the ability to sing different genres and to create different vocals fairly easy

[Pterofractyl]

i used to hate my voice. after going to a voice instructor for two years and playing to my strengths i've grown to really like my voice. there is always room for improvement, but it feels like a worthwhile usable instrument now. i'm all for getting training so you don't throw your voice out all the time. that being said, you have to get a teacher that works well with you and makes you feel excited about getting better.

I've gotten better. It's weird how well you can sing when playing acoustic guitar.

I wish I could vote twice: once for my 'clean' vocals and another for my 'gutural'/'harsh' (death metal) vocals, hahah.

I love my gutural singing. Wasn't for my love for guitar and lack of time I'd certainly be in a few band right now (definitely no running short on invitations, haha!)

Now my clean voice... well, I just seem not to get much along with it. It's not actually bad, but I don't know, just doesn't look like me hahah. Or maybe I just wanted my clean pitch was as low as mu gutural singing. Probably that.

i used to really hate my vocal voice when i was growing up, but the older i get, the more i embrace the "flaws" that it has. plus for my style of music, there is no "singing"..... i play metal and always have, so i lucked out on not needing "proper technique" and "pitch" and whatnots. hahah for my style, if it sounds punchy, thats the main thing.... but i've developed a weird high scream over the years, based on my flaws, and well, it works for me and i'm finally comfortable with it.... but that didn't happen until like the past few years. i personally say, embrace the voice you have, no one else has one like it. work with what you got and play to your strong points. you can hear "confidence" in a vocal track, and for me, thats what makes it sound good. if you're not confident, people will hear that.... but once again, this is just my opnion and like i said, i lucked out cause i don't really have to "sing"..... just be loud and crazy. hahahaha

hope its ok to leave this here, but this is what i mean about my voice. shrug, it is, what it is.... and i embrace it.

I hope to post my videos up here in the near future for you guys to critique and comment

I used to think mine was okay but then people told be I suck so I lost hope

[sciencebase]

I'm getting used to hearing my own singing voice now. Took a while...

[KeriShaw]

Yup, I often listen to my recordings and hate what I'm hearing, although I get good feedback mostly I'm on Reverbnation if you want to take a listen - under Keri Shaw

For what I've being doing, my voice is good enough, although there are some things that I can't do, or that require much effort to be done, and I wish I could do easily (reach some low or high notes, for example). So everyday I practice and listen to my own recordings to see if I'm improving.
