I have the same problem as you Scoville - I hear my recordings played back - and it don't sound like me.

On the plus side, I try to avoid any recordings taken, if they are happening I don't want to know, then I relax into the song more - which sounds better than when I counsciously know I'm being recorded.

Either way - I hate the way I sing.

Others don't hate the way I sing (or so they say)

I don't even know if I'm good or not - or if people are just being kind......

Wow what a whirl of thoughts.
