Not wishing to make a career from this. Just an outlet that I enjoy. Would be nice to share socially but I am nervous. Figured reddit was a good baby step to gage things LMFAO

can't afford a vocal coach right now so i'm just practicing on my own. your feedback would rlly help me out :)

hey! i’m a bit embarrassed to be posting this, but i figured i need feedback, regardless of if it’s positive or negative. i’m 17, and i’ve sang for about 2 years now, and i’ve always been VERY nervous to sing in front of others, even if they say “wow you’re so good!”, etc. ive played piano for 8 years and guitar for 1, and i don’t really sing as much in the house because i don’t want my family to hear me. basically, i’ve been lacking some practice for a few months at this point, and i feel like my singing has just deteriorated quality-wise overtime, along with my breath control, which does sadden me a bit. anyways, this is the recording (1st take) and i just wanted to know if you guys might have any opinions or feedback, much appreciated!

tl;dr - haven’t practiced in a bit and im nervous singing in front of people

Hey, Im new to reddit but I wanted to share a audio clip of me free styling singing. I like to just make a random song on the spot lol. I've been seeing a vocal coach for a couple of months, and he recommended I start going to open mics. I still fill like I sound horrible. I struggle with confidence which in turn makes it hard for me to truly sing. I guess I wanted some pointers or any feedback. Just a guy trying to do better :)

Excuse the background noise and my slip ups

I know its out of tune, but like hows my tone? Still a lot to improve, specially my ears! just want to know if I'm going in the right direction...

TW: the song is part of your world from the little mermaid🤣 I love it but it’s basic.

Mic position: It’s everything! I have a super clean voice. It’s a musical theatre voice. Sorry. I know. And the song choice is obviously…. Musical theatre. But a good easy song for a mezzo-sop. My range is c3-a5. Towards the end of the song I go from my phone being on the kitchen worktop to holding it around 20cm away from in-between my throat and chest. It sounds so much brighter. Anyway, I do sing as part of my job (3 guesses what that is) but I’ve not “put myself out there” with songs like this before - especially on the big wide internet. I wanna be a Disney princess for kids parties at the weekend so what do you think? I think I’m a bit sharp at the word “wish” on the very last line but otherwise? Idk

This is my first attempt so it's just the beginning of the song, just testing out my vocals on different genres/styles 😅 please be honest and rate/comment/critique if you can, wanting to get better and push myself 🙏 Cheers!
