What would you do if you have the talent, and you'd love to improve it, but...?

...you don't have the resources and support to do so?

Since I was a kid, I realize that I can sing. But I have one weakness..I can't quite hit the high notes. Every time I sing songs like "Hurt" Christina Aguilera, I had to adjust it to a lower note. In church, instead of singing those high notes like the other girls, I harmonize.

I would really love to improve my talent because I'm tired of adjusting the song all the time..however, I don't have the means to attend vocal classes. I'm in college now, and in a city far away from my home town and I need to save up for more important things.

My boyfriend enjoys my singing but he's always afraid of me improving myself in singing because he's afraid that I'd get famous and forget him. It's ridiculous, I know. I just wanted to improve myself for my own satisfaction. I love him but I feel hurt when he's always trying to stop me from improving myself in something that I love to do.

I always wonder - what's the use of having this talent but I can't do anything much with it? It's frustrating. Can someone help me?

    I can't sing at all and am jealous of all singers as a result of that, there isn't really much you can do with it apart from enjoy yourself. singing is proven to make you happy, makes me happy, can't imagine how happy you'd be if you were actually good at it.

    My singer shapi use to have this problem, she just practised every day going semi tones higher in different voul sounds (its that simple), also she use to get really disheartened by how steep the learning curve was but she can hit the high notes now so it is possible

    that was my question a while back,but now i have found the answer so......

    he doesn't love you because he doesn't want you to get famous he is jealous because he cannot sing like you he doesn't want to see you happy,see the movie aashiqui 2 you'll understand

    as far as your singing is concerned,PRACTICE PRACTICE and finally PRACTICE,you'll be surprised how far you can go,take vocal lessons on youtube,you alone can teach yourself if you don't have any resources

    to sing higher notes,sing louder !!!!!!,but be careful not to hurt your precious vocal chords you'll need them to get famous.

    ''to get the high notes,SING THE LOW ONES,try getting the lowest note possible and you will be amazed what your voice can do with the higher notes(p.s do the vibrato,ligato,stacatto,statacissmo,and other vocal harmonies)

    if this answer help's you to get as famous as christina aguilera,dont forget me atleast !!!!!! :P

    take care and good luck,

    i wish you have a very bright singing career !!!!!!

    now go AND SING :)

    forget about your boyfriend for now and start taking thing's seriously

    I thought i'd spice it up a bit from the usually random facts.

    - 25% of women think money makes a man sexier.
