This is just my way of looking at it, but regardless of my ability to sing, I would find it impossible to continue practicing if I wasn't interested in the music.

You may be overthinking this. Just jump into what turns you on. The site has something for every genre.

Good luck with your studies


This year the diet is definitely gonna stick!

There was a time when it was thought Dylan couldn't sing. And my fav too, Kristofferson.

Just sayin'.

I can't sing either but I play anything I like. I have been strumming a lot of songs lately that usually go with lyrics but I just play it without and I think it still sounds good, especially if you play a song that is somewhat recognizable.
