Is it in the Microphone?

Do you sing? On the microphone?

I do sing. But not on the microphone.

When I became a member of the children’s choir in the church I grew up with, the most common feedback I get from the other members is: Lakasan mo kasi ang boses mo. (Sing louder.)

Do you get conscious when you sing? I do. I get very very conscious that I feel I am always out of tune. That is the reason why I do not sing on the microphone. The more I hear my voice, the more conscious I become. So I just sing when someone else is singing. LOL.

It makes me wonder though if there is a kind of microphone that will make your voice nicer to the ears. Perhaps an exciting shure specialty microphones at guitar center can do the trick. You think?
