Truly what worked for me was to sing along with girls singing (on cd of course) and please do it when nobody is around.  i used to do it in my car, would sing with whatever I could and expanded my range about 4 notes in about 2 months.  (also remember to take zinc... helps the vocal chords repair)

I say drop the extended echo from the microphone. If you listen to Jennifer Knapp's music, her voice is crystal clear in many songs, and even the imperfections can be heard, which makes it sounds even more sincere and personal.\n\nAlso, I'd say be more selective in which notes you extend.\n\nI think you have a good voice, and your lyrics aren't bad. I'll add you as a friend on myspace if you're willing. I'd like to see where your career goes.

How young are you?  Will your parents help you by letting you take voice lessons?  A vocal coach can help you with strengthening your current talent and abilities and help you with your weaker areas.  Even those who are famous and great singers have/had a voice coach...There's always room for improvement!  :)\n\nIf they can't or aren't willing to right now, try joining the school chorus or church chorus and auditioning for solo parts.  You can also try talent competitions in your area.\n\nDo you have a Playstation 2?  If so, get Karaoke Revolution I, II & III.  I have them.. not only are they fun.. but you can practice a lot of songs and get graded on your performance... and see where you need improvement or where you're excelling.

Drinking milk before I sing makes it a little scratchy, but what does it for me is screaming and gettin anger out in my music - do this a lot. It's not healthy for you voice, but it gives it a scratchy sound.\n\nAlso, I know this might sound stupid, but try singing with a scratchy voice. Just learn what it feels like and if you like what you hear continue to do it. \n\nYou might have some luck contacting some local punk/emo/metal bands and see what the singer does to enhance his/her voice.

steroids is always an option.  other hormones such as testosterone would also do the trick.  \n\nhowever, if you don't want to inflict permanent damage on your vital organs, you may want to try regularly practicing hitting low notes when doing voice training, and eventually your range will expand a bit.  but if you have a naturally high voice, go with it.  nobody actually cares what your voice sounds like, so long as ur a cool person.

Get a friend (or just do it yourself) to lead a sing-along on a train, subway car, or bus and see what happens. This is something I've wanted to do for a long time, but never have as I don't want to get beaten up by people who think I'm annoying. Several reasons why this might/might not be worthwile:\n-It definately breaks the social norm. Not many people like to be heard loud and clear when they're using public transportation.\n-Very few people actually will sing in public. Most people will only mutter or completely ignore you when you ask them to sing.\n\nGood luck :)

This depends on the size of the room, or outdoors,  how many people you are speaking to, and how well your voice projects without screeching or yelling.  I have a friend who is an opera singer and she can fill a concert hall with out a mike because she has a beautifully trained voice.

not bad, but i think it still needs a little more work!  \n\nare you a professional singer or still an amateur?

I have some advice, if you have a good voice don't sing in that style it will probably ruin it if you've never done it before.  Screaming is very, very hard on a female voice.  Work into it slowly.  I almost ruined my classically trained voice by singing in a garage band.  Don't try to sound like anyone else, find your own unique groove.

There are a few karaoke sites that may be able to help you. I heard that if you have certain keys on the equipment you can seperate the voice from the instrumental on a regular c/d or track.

You got to have the talent to sing first. Then, practice every day for at least 15 minutes to start, then, as your voice gets stronger, start lenthening your practice time till you get to an hour a day. Have plenty of water available, as you will expell a lot of water while singing. Do not drink any dairy products before singing, as this coats your throat and makes singing very difficult. If you could join a chorus or choir, you could get a lot of practice from the director. I started in high school and now I own a karaoke and sing to trax tapes at church. If you want to do this professionally, such as be famous, you'll need bigger connections. But, it all starts with talent. If you don't have it, practicing will only make you sing louder, but not necessarily better. If you have people telling you that you've got a good voice, check with a professional, maybe the chorus teacher at your local school. See if he'll listen to you after school and give you his opinion. If you watch American Idol, I'm sure you've seen what those people go through to get to the top. It takes lots of hard work, and talent. Without talent, all you have is hard work and no one wants to watch someone work hard. It's hard on the ears. <*)))><

It depends on how you're screaming.  To not lose your voice, you have to scream/project more from your chest.  However, breathing too much air past vocal chords can wear out/damage them as well.  It's a delicate balance, see below for more information.

Don't be too hard on yourself... reaching high notes requires you to naturally have them as part of your range, combined with good breathing technique and vocal placement.  Because it is a combination of things, the best thing for you to do is seek a private teacher who is trained classically to show you the safest way of singing high notes.  Then you can apply your technique to any style without putting strain on your cords.  Don't ever try to force them.  Have some lessons, and as you become more relaxed you can practice at home.  I don't know what you are classing as high notes but make sure they are in your range and don't feel bad if you can't sing them.  Chances are you have a really great middle to lower register - and this is a much rarer voice type, so take care.

You have to work at it. Ask you director for some note exercises. you just build up to it. And NO you DON'T push it into your lips as hard as possible...WRONG that will just damage your sound all together. Just build up to it, it may take time but it is possible i got mine out my freshmen year (sophmore now). Just ask you director if they have or no of any note range exercises.

Attempt to not overblow and don't change your amboture (sp?) when it comes to not losing your intonation. Lip up if you are flat, and relax your jaw and lip down if you are sharp.  Grab a tuner and set it to 440hz and do "longtones."  Go from your low D (F Concert) to your middle D, 12 counts each note and start Piano (soft) as you can and cressiendo 6 counts go to Forte and the next 6 counts decressiendo  back to Piano-do this with a tuner.  For breathing techniques, without your horn, tsss sound in the longtones pattern  (6 counts cressiendo/6 counts decressiend).  Do this blowing in the palm of your hands and make sure you are blowing warm air.  As you get better at it, increase the number of counts.  Good Luck.

Try blowing through your throat while opening and closing your vocal chords and raising and lowering the tip of your tounge.

if you know what a scale is then this is what you can do, it helps. start from any medium pitched note and sing it straight, as straight as possible and for as long as possible, then sing the next LOWER note the same way, then the next LOWER and the next and the next till you voice cant go any lower. then go back up to the note from where you started. So it will be like singing do ti la so fa mi... and then back up. do it for a month and see the difference. this works like hell.
