I Have A Dream...........

Jul 29, 2008 21:17

Sorta.

I would love to be a singer but I don't think I have the talent to do it. My RL friends, on the other hand, think I do. I figured that what I need is to get an honest opinion from someone who hasn't known me my whole life (or near enough). But I have a problem - I refuse to sing if I know people can hear me.

Any suggestions?

Also - Hub - looks ( Read more... )

random, rl

is there anyway you could record your voice and then give it to someone to listen to? That way you wouldn't have to sing in front of the person.

If I were to keep a recording long enough then I have no idea who I would send it too.

Plus I couldn't record myself because I'd just delete straight after and I don't think I could stop arguing mwith my friends long enough for one of them to do it.

is there someone online you have been speaking to a while that might listen?
Sometimes its easier to you know share things... if that makes sense.
I used to be so nervous at college about singing classes, I was fine in the acting and dancing stuff, but for some reason singing in front of other people I'd just be terrified.

I had just thought of asking one of my mates to just film me and put it on youtube.

But then I realised I might not have the bottle to actually let myself be recorded.

I can't stand even having my picture taken - I run away from people recording me! Seriously - I did it in Newport.

Take a leaf out of James' book... youtube it.

I have mates who have done that.. and you get a lot of honesty on there... although some people can be plain rude even to good people so you'd might have to take some with a pinch of salt.

I might actually. I'm seeing a lot of my friends tomorrow so I'll see what they think.

I'm not worried about people being rude - I have pretty low expectations of myself really so whatever people say. I can always come up with something worse about myself.

Doesnt even need to be youtube... you can do an audio file.. or if you are worried about deleting it you can do it over an audio convo with someone. My mate did that before with me.

If I were to do it I would rather it be YouTube cos then there could be no question that it is me and not someone else.
