Do you feel comfortable singing in front of others?

[Lady Diana 412]

 singing is my passion but  I've sang in front of a whole crowd before   I was so nervouscited   

[frecklesareblooming 225]

No. A particularly bad idea on my part to perform in a talent show when I was younger stomped on any chance of me singing in front of people in the future. Picture the CMC from the episode Show Stoppers and you'd be accurate about what it looked like.

[Mouse 302]

Ehh. I like going to karaoke, but I usually get pretty nervous. At home with just family members around I have no problem with it. I tend to be louder then...

[Catpone Cerberus 23,648]

I don't sing if somebody sees, but if somebody hears I don't care.

[Intenzifier 1,103]

Not in front of people I don't like to, but with a small group of friends sure especially when they join in too.

[BabylonSister 218]

I am fine singing in front of people I dont know. Because I generally dont care what strangers think of me. But if im with people I know, whom I respect and whom I like being respected by, the pressure is on. Big time. Im confident in my abilities and perform semi regularly, but I also fear the smallest slip up would tarnish their feeling about me.

[gamecubeguy214 2,512]

Definitely not. In front of others, speak normally, unless you have some sort of special needs that makes it hard to talk. Just talk as normal as you can.

[redshell 195]

Yes and no. I will sing if I am asked to but I get tend to get nervous and start to mumble.

[WhiteShadow 18]

Personally I love singing in front of others, it lets me know how well I can sing, and is also just generally fun.

[VinylWubs 1,257]

Well that's what I basically do for a competition! Sing in front of an audience is my Hobby/Talent so I don't really care what they think, All I need is that I did fantastic..

[IronM17 5,399]

I can't sing. And I don't want to sing in front of a crowd. I also have stagefright and my singing voice is terrible. So, I never would sing in front of others. 

[Alphys Hedge 671]

I usually do, but If I sing a japanese song, I feel more comfortable because I'm not really singing in my own language, (and therefore non-japanese people can't tell if I'm singing badly or not X3)

[Lil'Cinnamon 1,587]

I don't really like singing in front of others, I definitely CAN'T do it if a song is playing. But if there is a song playing and I know the lyrics to it at the same time I am a lot more comfortable singing in front of others. But other then that I get really nervous and just can't do it. I have always been that way. xD

[BlueBrony 388]

I can sing in front of people if I'm performing. I've had a lot of experience in amateur and school theatre, which is where I developed my stage presence. I still get a little stagefright, but I've learned ways to cope with it.  I'm also fine if I am singing in a choir- previous church choir experience helped with that. If I am practicing, I become a lot more self-conscious, especially If I notice somebody else.

 

If I am driving a long distance alone in my car, I will often sing to help break the monotony. That's usually when I belt it and don't care at all

[Raritas 6,820]

I've never done anything like that seriously, like in front of a crowd. If I had to I know wouldn't even get on the stage. In front of friends messing around? Yeah sure!

[Saccharine 18]

Oh gosh, I'm terrible at singing XD I'm very insecure about my voice so I very rarely sing at all. Singing in front of a judging audience sounds like a nightmare... I'm ok with singing sometimes if I'm just messing around with my friends, though.

[Wyzecat 350]

Hell no.  I rarely ever sing in front of anybody.

[Envy 6,191]

Pft... I am not even comfortable singing with no one around. No one should ever have to hear that, not even myself. xD

[Hashi 323]

Lucky for me, singing is one of my few natural talents.

Inherited the voice from a line of musicians and all that.

 

So initially, yes, when I was starting out singing. As a matter of fact this problem persisted all the way until I took the grade 8! But as I sang more I got more confident with singing. So I can happily do a concert now.

As long as I have enough preparation before hand.

 

For yall who are nervous about it, don't worry. Just remember singing is for your enjoyment, and passion, and the people you are performing in front of are random people just enjoying what you can do.

As long as I have an instrument with me, sure.

[MLPFanatic34 3,234]

I would love to sing in front of others, but I would feel quite nervous.

[PROJECT: Simon 3,955]

I mean, if there's only one person then yes~!     

[-Octavia- 1,176]

I whistle MLP songs all the time in public. Singing? Well, sometimes. It isn't boisterous, though. It's usually at a volume where only those next to me can hear it. And then they are typically not MLP songs.
