Haha I know what you mean...uhhhh Yeah but you have to remember he doesn't have the perfect voice either! Maybe you should do it in a really low molester type voice.

Summer....heerrrrrrrrrrrrreee kidddds bwhahahahahaah.

If there's a note I can't sing, I either try it in another octave (rarely), or I sit there and practice it until it doesn't sound all shithy.

I would suggest a voice teacher/coach if its in your price range.  When I first did my Italian training (Cause I'm weird like that and sing opera and arias, etc.)  My range was that of a rather low bass.... but the teacher that I liked best was himself a fairly high ranged tenor- the reason I went with him was because he pushed me, as he knew more about the upper ranges- but he knew how to work slowly.  I ended up with a higher and lower range than most people I have sang with (Who are male, that is).

The other thing- I would caution you with finding techniques on the intraweb unless you know they come from a good source- it's suprising easy to fuck up your voice something fierce if you strain it to much.  And yes, anyone can learn to sing- there is a certain place you can't pass if you have absolutely no talent, but it sounds like you have some talent- so go for it.

Also- learning vocal styles that you normally wouldn't be interested in, just to learn the songs and techniques, are allot of help, imho.

Thats bout it from me.

Hmmmm i'm a classically trained vocalist too (alot of italian opera music and the sterotypical show tunes) and I'd say even just go for a few lessons with a teacher to improve your technique (learning correct posture, breathing and scales) and just keep practicing/ trying a variety of styles till you find one that works with your voice ... the other thing i always found that really helped was gtting a tape recorder and recording yourself whilst singing and then playing it back to critically analyse it cause sometimes its hard to really 'hear' yourself when singing and having it played back makes it easier to pick up faults

See, the tape recorder is a great idea... but the problem with it for me is that I really hate hearing my voice recorded for some reason- gives me the heebie geebies.  I will admit it is a great tool for learning, though.

And there is nothing wrong with learning show tunes.

Right?
