And Skipy who says you can't, look at guys like Dylan. His voice is his voice it is unique and moving. Compare him to a Frank Sinatra and those people would say Dylan can't sing. I could listen to Dylan until my ear fell off, it is all emotion. Dollars to donuts when he first took the stage he did it for himself because something said inside that he had to do this or would not feel complete. I am sure you have a great voice, it is YOUR voice, as unique as you are. You can make that voice into something that will move people. You don't have to be a Sinatra to do that. Listen to the great blues guys. Their voice is theirs alone, completely unique and nothing like a big band singer. You can do this I know you can and it will be wonderful when you do.
