Ok, well my choir instructor told us that we needed to record ourselves singing. So I did. For a while, I thought I was a good singer (soprano, especially since I got myself in an advanced choir a lot of people have told me I have a good voice. So I recorded myself passionately singing The Witches Chorus from Verdi's "Macbeth" and the recording sounded terrible! Awful! I've never heard myself on a recording before and I don't feel very good. Does this mean I have been a terrible singer all along, or does everyone think their voice sounds bad on a recording?

A lot depends on the quality of the recording. If you're using a regular recorder, chances are it's distorting your voice. I would ask your choir instructor for her honest opinion.

Hey lovely,
Don't stress about it!!
Everyone thinks that they sound like they have a REALLY bad cold when they hear themselves on tape!!!
I've been singing since I was 9! (Forcedley!), and everytime I hear a recording of myself think "oh my GOD! I sound terrible!!"
It's not the case - as long as you can hold a note and people are telling yu that you sound good don't worry!
Take care and don't give up - if people tell you that you are good than than you are!

Of course it doesn't. I have the same problem. Everyone always sounds worse on recording, believe me. You wouldn't get accepted into a prestegious choir if you sound horrible

Don't worry. ive gotten complements about my singing voice too. then when i went to my friends house and we recorded our voices on cassette and we lost complete confidence about singing! somehow it sounds completely different on casette then you really are so dont worry!

Dont worry about it. You will always sound different over a recorder. Because of the way it is you will always sound different over the recorder, phone etc. Everyone sounds different from like over the phone from in person. Dont worry about it. You probally have a great voice in person just not sucha a great voice over a recorder. hope I helped <3

Sometimes recording can make you sound a little different then you normally do. I'm sure you're a wonderful singer. Try recording it again, maybe have someone in your family listen to it over. You could just be paranoid...

If people have told you that you have a good voice, you have a good voice. Recordings always distort your voice and make it sound a lot worse than it actually was. I used to have a radio show, and once my friend taped it for me.. and I was shocked about how terrible I sounded! But a lot of it is probably that you're being too hard on yourself at the same time. If someone else heard the recording, I bet they wouldn't share your point of view. My friends always thought I sounded great on radio, even though I thought I sounded terrible. So a lot is really about how confident you are with your ability.
Get someone else to listen to it (someone neutral if you like, doesn't have to be a friend) and see what they say. I almost guarantee they'll think you sound good!
