Can i?

I know the mic goes all clippy as I'm loud and some of the bits run out of breath and go a bit off-pitch but can i sing?

The song btw is "Invincible" by Carola Haggkvist, not in the original key.

With thanks to Gavin's windshield as well for making it plosive-free.

I'm going to say you're better than I could ever be, and thats very very good, but I'm not sure your chart material... that said, what do I know. Odly enough, I prefered your Steven Cole song, I think that sort of jazz/paino/live style works better with your voice than "pop" (thats the only word I can think of, but I don't mean it like Steps or SClub pop..)

Go you for posting it, most people, myself included wouldn't dream of singing infront of anyone, let along a bunch of people you don't know.

I'm not sure that made any sence...

My God! That sounds a better key for that song than Carola's original vocal! I like!

(but then, I sing like a girl even at the age of 24, and just terrify people!)

"That's what people do when i sing" lol...

James H you've a better singing voice than me but you're too syruppy!

It's kinda amusing for me when I'm out in a Tesco van, singing my heart out, and people in cars around me suddenly realise I AM actually singing along with the woman on the radio

I blame the fact I grew up only really listening to female singers - I trained my voice too well

If you sound like Kate Bush you got a problem

My formative years were spent with my mother rehearsing soprano leads in Gilbert and Sullivan operettas whilst doing the housework.

You can, therefore, imagine how strange my singing repertoire became over time.

Well let's just say I can hit almost any note she can, and despite having a fairly deep speaking voice, my singing voice cuts out altogether if I try to sing lower than soprano

And why a problem? I call it unique 8)

James - Everything (Acoustic)

Ok, a slightly different song. It's another eurovision number (purely 'cos i thought there were a few good songs this year) and I've taken some of your advice, let me know what you think!
