Learning to sing?

Unread post by Quick » Sat Sep 13, 2003 2:03 pm

I have a question for all you non-natural born singers who sing now, what did you do? Did you take lessons? Did you find a website online? Did you just practice on your own?

Let me know.. :)

Just start with rock type songs. green day etc. then move up the ladder to harder stuff. don't try to start with any thing like zepellin, you'll die trying. haha.

I can't sing worth crap...Maybe I'm not too terrible, but my voice is definately not for lead.

Wonderwall by Oasis is pretty easy to sing to
