If you can afford it, I would say you should take private lessons. Also, sing as often as you can. Join the church choir, a local chorale, anything that will keep you singing. An important thing to remember is that you should do vocal warm-ups before you sing, a good 20 minutes worth of scales and exercises. Like a previous answer said, push you voice a little outside your comfort zone to extend your range, but not so much that you're straining your voice. You don't want to permanently injure your instrument.

Also, when you sing think about the lyrics and what they mean. It may sound better if the words have meaning behind them... if it's coming from somewhere deeper than your throat, know what I mean?

As far as changing your voice, I think that once you develop your voice you'll find your own personal style and that may be the change you're looking for. You certainly don't want to sound like someone else, just be the best 'you'! You may end up having one of those voices that is so unique that you'll be instantly recognizable on the radio :-)

Good luck!!!!

There are lots of ways to improve your voice- although perhaps not change it completely. Singing is like playing any instrument- the most important thing is practice. First, you want to keep singing, and force yourself to sing things just outside your comfort zone so you get used to pushing your range. Don't try to imitate someone elses style, figure out how you sing and build on that (the easiest way to spot an amateur singer is someone trying to sound like their favorite pop star). Also, you will want to get with a good vocal teacher who emphasizes healthy singing technique. If you are tone deaf, this will all be a little harder, but you can improve your ear by trying to match pitch w/ a keyboard or even one of your favorite songs. If worse comes to worse, remember "How quiet the woods would be if only the best birds sang" and don't let it get you down. Playing an instrument like the guitar is a huge accomplishment in and of itself. Keep singing, good luck!
