Like any instrument, you do need to practice singing, but it's more than just hitting the notes.
You need to know how to breathe properly, support your tone and listen to your pitch; these are all skills you can learn, no matter how tone-deaf you might be, but they won't guarantee that you'll go from sounding like Alfalfa from "The Little Rascals" to sounding like a well-trained singer such as operatic tenor Luciano Pavarotti or even hip-hip/pop songstress Alicia Keyes.
Taking voice lessons, or using vocal training techniques from books, the Internet or even software may help you find your voice.
Also, when you try notes beyond your range, they will sound tinny, hollow, unsupported and very weak. In your terms, well, "crappy". How do you find your range? Sit at a keyboard and sing scales; the lowest note you can comfortably sing is probably at the bottom of your range, while the highest is certainly the topmost note you have now. Training and practice may increase your range slightly, but singing out of your range will always, always, always sound bad.
At the risk of sounding cruel, if you're truly tone-deaf, on the other hand, the only thing that'll make you sound decent is a studio pitch manipulator, like they use for Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan.

You're on the right track so far. Singing does take practice and you have to practice all the time. One thing you can do is when you have the radio on or a CD on, is try and match your voice to a woman's voice. Or if you know someone who has a piano (and can play it) see if they will help you out. What you do with the piano is for every note played on the piano you match with your voice. That is really the best bet in practicing and singing, but keep up the practice b/c it takes a lot of it.

If you take singing lessons a teacher can help you breathe correctly for singing which is breathing from your diaphram. that always strengthens your voice.. as for those high notes, it all depends on what your range is. The bad thing is that people rate good voices as if you can hit high notes ... that's not true, Mariah, yes can hit those notes, but they have to fix how they sound in a studio, so really, what good is that .. it's all about how to use the voice you've got. I sing and love singing. I don't know what I'd do without it.. so I wish you good luck!

Well, it depends on what you are singing. If you are trying to increase the depth in your voice but naturally are not meant to sing high notes...then you have to practice accordingly. You have to learn your limits. There are warm ups that help you reach higher octaves. You may want to consider a voice coach if it is something you really want to do. Yes, your voice can get better...but it does have to do with natural talent. Singing is not for everyone, but you can work with what you have and practice to make it better. Best of luck and if you love to sing...never stop, even if you are only singing in your car!

Only with a vocal coach, and then some people never improve even with one. And besides, good singing is not composed of whether or not you can hit a high note. You should practice singing within your range first.

practice makes perfect... sometimes... if you have a good voice to start with, singing lessons can help to train your voice to hit those high notes without hurting someone and to resonate. you can also gradually increase your vocal range, but you can't teach someone to not be tone deaf! try recording your own voice and playing it back because what you hear when you're actually singing can be deceiving if you don't know what to listen for. sort of like a dancer dancing in front of a mirror to know what the audience sees, you want to listen to yourself on tape to hear what your audience hears. good luck!

Send me an email if you want some advice. Besides being a superhero, I'm also a pretty accomplished singer IRL. I'm pretty good at the coaching thing. I just need to understand your voice a little bit better.
Let me know exactly what the problem you're facing is.

If you get singing lessons they can train your voice how to control itself when it goes to hit high notes like that. Also, someone told me that driving a lot of water and joice will help mellow your voice out. Stay away from cofee and sodas of any kind.

you need professional training on how to improve your sound. Practicing the wrong techniques over adn over aren't going to help you get better. See if you can find a vocal coach. YES, there are techniques to singing.
