I play with a rock band and I sometimes sing lead but most of
the time just back up. People say that I sound
good when I sing lead, but I'm thinking that it's just because the instruments are loud enough to mask my voice and make me sound good because when I record myself at home I have a really bad voice. But enough about that, basically my question is, can you still become a good singer even if you don't have talent or a good voice?.
