I love music but music doesn't love me...

The trick is recording yourself, then playing it back so you can hear where you went wrong. I don't have a great voice, but I can always tell if I'm going off-key or not. That's because listing to my own voice playing back to me helped me recognize what I was doing wrong. I'd listen first; then, when it got to the problem-parts, I'd stop the playback, and sing the parts so I'd know how it made everything feel (my vocal chords, the vibrations in my throat, the amount of air I use to get the note out). I'd also pay attention to how it sounded, both while I sang, and on the recording, because your voice sounds much different to you while you're using it than when you're just hearing it. Then, I would try to adjust the note to bring it to where it should be, and record myself again. After a few times of doing that, you start to recognise what isn't right. I know that, now, I can go for maybe a month or two without many problems. After that, though, if I go for a while without listening to what I'm singing, my notes start going bad, and I need to start recording for myself again as soon as possible to get back on track.

Same here... Im there to accompany u. Infact, i always try to catch up with the tune and try to sing in a similar way, but it always turns out so bad. :( But do remember, practice make perfect... Im infact thinkin of joining music classes. I will reach out to be better one day! :)

I love music. I listen to it almost constantly when I have a chance, and even if no music is playing outside, I hear music in my head all the time. I have certain songs I associate with certain moods, and I have half my hard drive filled up with music, all arranged into playlists for mood and occasion. I can't sing. Or rather, I can sing if I have someone to sing along with, like in a group. However, on my own, I completely destroy the tunes of songs, and I can't keep in the right key without someone to follow. I haven't really improved, but I haven't had anyone willing to work with me on it either. Instead I confine my singing to singing along with my music on the computer (so I can follow the singer) or with groups of people. Or I sing where no one can hear me. :P

I love music too and I guess I am a decently good singer. It is good to hear that you are now better able to enjoy music after the voice training. Way to go! :)
