Once you keep doing it, there will be a day that you cannot even believe that you have been shy once. Shyness passes away - More you sing, better. One day you will wake up and find 'Gosh, I am wonderful. I have no shyness in public settings whatsoever.' Most of us has been shy once. It won't stay. You will grow out of it. Be positive and follow the dreams. Don't dwell much on the shyness. Carry on despite how you feel. Then you will gradually forget your shyness and enjoy your performances more and more.

I had the same problem a couple years ago, but then my amazing choir teacher started picking me for all the solos in our choir. I was forced to do it, so I got used to it. When you have to sing in front of people, don't look directly at anyone until you're comfortable doing it. Just look around the entire audience, or, if it's dark, pretend there's no one their. You're just singing for you own enjoyment. The last way (no one in the room) is probably the best, because then you really PERFORM. Everyone will think you were great.

Start singing in front of audiences. Start out with a trusted friend and then groups of friends. join a choir or a some other vocal group. Sing in church, if you go. Practice independently so you can be sure you know your material, and continue performing for audiences. The more you do it the easier it will get. Take it slow and work at a pace you're comfortable with and don't stray so far out of your comfort zone that it puts you off to performing. The more positive feedback you get from audiences you get the better. Plenty of performers get butterflies, with practice you will learn to harness that nervous energy. Good Luck

Start by building up your confidence by singing in front of family & friends.You could always go to a karaoke as they are great practice & also loads of fun. When I first started, I was very nervous & shy but the key is to find somewhere in a room to focus on,use that to start your song,then when you feel a bit relaxed you will soon forget about the audience & the rest will come naturally.You can't go wrong.It's the best way to overcome your shyness. You just get up there & belt it out girl! Always worked for me! Good luck.

You should sing in front of a mirror or a pet first. Then sing at church. Church is one of the best places to sing because they don't care how well you do, but just that you are being apart of the church family. Maybe even start out by singing in front of a friend. Remember not all people are like Simon Cowl, but their are a lot of Paula's!

Hey, take this steps:
1. What do you think of your voice?
2. Ask friends of parents on their opinion about your voice.
3. Join small competition of singing to get your confident.
4. Practice everyday in front of the mirror (make sure u lock the doors)

For i'm sure if u gained experience in stage, you can join big competition like Malaysian Idol or One in a Million next year.

Good luck =p

Shyness can be a problem. A good way to start out is to be in a choir with a group of people your own age. Eventually you'll be able to overcome your shyness if you reach out of your bubble and let people hear you. Also it may help to take a few vocal lesson either with a group or private. I encourage a group setting so that you can learn to sing better in front of people.

i love singing too but my voice is going

i think what you need to do is just break free and sing, forget about what other people think out in society, maybe you can start by singing softly to yourself and then after you have built up your confidence sing louder and louder.

nearly everyday when i'm driving my car i see 40yr olds singing away not giving a crap about what anyone else think's.

I think shyness can come from this place inside of you where your just embrassed about doing it and thats ok but the more you do it the more you'll get use to it and do it when ever you like regardless of what people think
SING SING AWAY!!!!

Best advice I was ever given about getting comfortable performing in front of others is to do it as much as possible. Start out with people that you feel really comfortable around (best friends, siblings, parents, etc...) and give them mini-recitals of songs that you know really well (not having to worry about messing up a song helps A LOT). Ask them for imput on your performance. Eventually, when you feel comfortable with that, start doing it in front of people you don't know as well and get their opinions. Add more people on at one time. The point is to get you so used to having people around when you sing so that it's not as big a deal when you actually have to do it in a public setting. Also realise that the people listening to you are there to support you, so don't be worried about too much critisism at this stage. You'll do fine, just get out there, and do it as much as possible!

Join a choir or choral group or glee club at church, school, or a community center. Take vocal classes in a continuing education setting. Sing along with the radio or CD at home. If you can afford it, take singing lessons.

You can start overcoming your shyness by singing at karaoke events in bars or parties.

Enjoy! Sing your heart out!
