I've mentioned that I'm a member of the CC Strummers uke group out of the Culver City, California Senior Center. I never considered myself a very good singer, but thought I could at least stay in tune while singing along, and even try a little low end harmony.
The last few weeks I've been recording each song as we sing to help me learn to play the bass. Yesterday our leader, Cali Rose, asked me if I could share the recordings online to help the group practice for our upcoming Senior Center Holiday show.
I put them on my web site and while listening back to the recordings, I could hear myself, and holy moly, I STINK! It was so bad, I immediately decided that from now on I'm just going to lip-sync, so as not to subject anyone to my voice again.
It's really disappointing because if there's anything I would wish for, it's to be able to sing well, but now that reality has set in, I have to let go of that.
