And indeed, when I sing or speak, it sounds TOTALLY different to me (of course) after I record it and listen to it. The human voice is weird...

I sing a lot and I love to sing. I am ok but no Diamanda Galas for sure. Some tips:
- Practice your singing along disparate stuff, from crooning to whatever other style you fancy practising along to. This will get your voice aquainted to different vocal approaches that might not even be what you're aiming at, plus it will boost your confidence. Record everything that you sing along to and don't be put off if you listen back to it and think that you sound like shite. The point is to find out what your vocal range is capable of and feels comfortable with, so it becomes all good experience.
- Stretch your vocal cords before you actually sing. This exercise helps relaxing you both physically and mentally and it also makes you less prone to just mess around with your singing. Focusing on what you are singing is just as important, whatever the style.
- Get a soul and off you go!
