Singing on Youtube?

Hi Eveeryone

May sound weird making a thread about this but I really not sure if I can and if I should sing on youtube.

I currently sing on my own with lyrics (mostly private) for fun and maybe a laugh. Also when driving around, I listen to music and sometimes sing along with it.

But the thing is, I can't tell if I am a good singer or not. I researched on google and they say sing on youtube to find if good singer and I don't want sing in front of family and friends (nerves), also I ignored it but now later in future I been getting bugged in my head if I should actually sing. To be honest I been trying do this thread for ages but keep closing it and saying nah but it come to this point where I might as well ask if I should sing on youtube for mainly fun and to see how my singing is.

Note: currently I also own a gaming channel and called it Offlimitgames which cool name for gaming channel but be awkward putting singing on there, I was thinking then put it over game videos but would not think what to call the title due to I don't want it too long and would want people to recognise both.

So start new channel with just music. I thought do Offlimitmusic but wasn't sure if it worth it or not.
Note: What puts me down as well is I created other channels in past but dislike them, people were idiots on them and got new ideas, etc. I thought I going stick with offlimitgames and I like gaming videos but only do them now and then due to I got admit people will watch much better gamers then me but will still properly do gaming videos with the music on different channel if created like offlimitmusic but the main question is what to do.

Should I go for it and give it a shot or not? If give it a shot, how shall I give it a shot?

Edit Also will singing popular songs/songs, etc without the actual song in background be against copyright still? Due to I know if put the actual song up it will be against copyright. I predict not but thought I ask incase it does and don't want copyright claims if it goes well.

Thanks for reading.
Kind Regards

P.S If got anything else to say, feel free to say it. Also I don't mind whatever you say about it, I will take it due to it will help.
 
If you're worried you could disable comments/ratings but then how would you know if you have a natural talent or not?
Remember, you can always delete the video if all else fails :)
 
You can set the video's in hide (only accessible trough links) and post it somewhere here on the forum for a week or something. After that see what people think about it and let them give feedback. Then set them to either public or private.

Yea I guess there nothing wrong with it.

Yea Justin Bieber did start off on youtube and strangly I was reading online newpapers about shocking and bad news about justin bieber haha but I also don't see me doing a justin bieber and I studying computers + graphics but never know what the future holds.


Also I like update which I put in first post just now, will singing popular songs/songs, etc without the actual song in background be against copyright still? Due to I know if put the actual song up it will be against copyright. I predict not but thought I ask incase it does and don't want copyright claims if it goes well.

Yea, I would want to see what people think and if it horrible and bad opinions and loads dislikes then I will properly remove video and maybe channel.

ooh good idea :D
 
I'm pretty sure you can sing a song without the actual music being there, and be fine as its changed enough to be yours (I'd double check with a few other people here).

Otherwise if you want to sing on YouTube, go for it. There are loads of people who do it and loads of people who have got noticed because of it. You will get a few people who comment negatively, but ignore them and do what you enjoy :)

Edit* Don't delete the channel due to people being negative, learn from them and improve. Don't let them get to you ;)
