My friend practiced for a few months, said he sucked horribly at first, and I was wondering If I can get better like he did.

Take voice lessons and you would definitely be better than him.

Take voice lessons and join the choir and ask the choir director to help you here's some pointers I got from Rick that will help you:
1 Always remember to raise your eyebrows
2 Always remember to sing from your diaphram
3 Always remember to take a deep breath and carry over the notes until you get to rests
4 Always remember to sit up and have good posture
5 always remember to pronouce the words right and pronouce the words vertically like open your mouth when you say like love above and words like that
Does that help you?
Any more advice or something then just e-mail me at

There are many websites where you can find information to help you improve your vocals, try searching the phrase "vocal lessons", for now here's an exercise that may help you.
Vocal Exercises should be done twice in a row, two times per day. They should be produced as softly as is possible with an easy onset (initiation of sound) and forward placement of the tone (avoid a swallowed or dark vocal sound).
1.Sustain the vowel sound "eee" for as long as possible on the musical note F above middle C for women, below middle C for men. The tone should be produced as softly as possible, but without breathiness. A good supported breath should proceed voice. The "eee" should be produced with an extreme "forward" tone focus; almost, but not quite nasal. The goal is to sustain the sound without breaks for as long as possible. Sustain an "eee" as long as possible.
2.Glide from your lowest to your highest note on the word "knoll" or on a lip or tongue trill. Voice should be soft, and a forward focus used. If breaks occur, continue to glide without hesitating.
3.Glide from a comfortable high note to your lowest note on the word "knoll" or on a lip or tongue trill. Voice should be soft, and a forward focus used. If breaks occur, continue to glide without hesitating.
4.Sustain the musical notes C-D-E-F-G, each as long as possible on the word "ol" ("old" without the "d"). Lips should be rounded; a sympathetic vibration should be felt on the lips.

Yeah, I think practice will do it. What I do sometimes is I record myself and then listen to it so I can see what I'm doing wrong. I'm getting better and better, but you have to remember that it will take a lot of time so BE PATIENT =)

You could search around your hometown for someone to give you lessons. Private lessons work wonders on any sort of art. I play French horn and since I started private lessons, I've gotten so much better.
