just try it may be you are just a lil scared that all who knows you be good at what you do so don't gave up!!!=)

Don't worry-You'll get used to singing in front of crowds.

I used to be the very same but when I sang infront of my friends cuz they think im a good singer I don't know why but when I did I sang infront of them with my eyes closed alright I felt like a complete TWAT but still it worked or just try practicing infront of a mirror if when your singing to your reflection but imagine it as like say a fan you build up your confidence and it helps with singing in crowds hope this is any bit helpfull

once you start to sing youll forgot anyone is there!!!

well not really but there was no masybe option lol!! basically that fear will never go away ive sang infront of audiences loads but i still get really badly nervous before but you have to do is beleive you can sing, you may not be able to please everyone but that doesnt matter just breathe or maybe have some alcohol before you go on not drunk just to make you happier and more confident i tell u that helps me! lol

Try singing in frount of someone you know well and soon you'll get used to singing to people. At least that's what I do I don't know if that will work.
:S

dont be nervous because if you do u might mess up!!
OR
just look at one person that you feel comfortable to look at!!

thanks guys for your help but keep commenting the answers plz

Sing it in front of people,
Then u will be confident,
Ans start with some1 close,
Then every1

Just close your eyes, or focus on a point in the wall, and think you're alone in your bedroom, or in a big stage!

well, I do not have that problem. what you should do, is start singing in the mirror. after that your family and friends. if you sing in curch, it makes thing easyer cause no one ca hear you. then just sing everything everywhere

Start to sing quietly in front of friends and family and then sing louder and louder and that should help! Well at least it helped 4 me!!!!

practice in the mirror, then blast your ipod so you know no one can hear you. Or turn your tv on so you don't feel embarresed about singing. Have fun with it!

God. I have the same problem. But i guess if you want to sing in front of people start with your friends. Or family. turn your back and close your eyes and just sing.

I have the same problem.

I had the same problem,but now i dont!You just have 2 be strong & sing the best you can!
P.S.Imagine that you`re alone!

If your singing in front of a lot of people then just pick out your friend and look at them, it makes it a TON easier.

Don't focus your eyes on the audience. When you see all the peeps watching you, it makes you even MORE nervous and your singing can go all wonky. Believe me, I didn't follow this advice and looked at the audience and then I was so nervous that I couldn't sing and lost because it was a talent show audition. :(

I used to get horrible stage fright, even to think about singing in front of my friends! Then my voice teacher gave me this awesome trick to calm my nerves. It's called EFT, and there's a longer way to do it and a shorter way. Both work well. The short way is:
As you say to yourself something along the lines of 'It will be fine, I'll sound great', etc., tap the side of your pinky finger about ten times. Still talking to yourself, tap the side of your ring-finger, followed by the side of your index finger, followed by the side of your thumb. Then tap the side of your hand (like where you would karate-chop something). This should really calm you down. It might also help if you close your eyes while you do this.
If you do this a couple minutes before you sing, you should be fine. If you want to know the long way, you can google EFT.

Good Luck!

I agree with Hil_fan!

totally happend 2 me. it's ok. your not alone. don't b afraid. just b yourself and b comfortable with yourself and just have fun! talk to me if you need anymore help w/anything i'm hear for you.

everybody gets scared infront of big crowds. even i do. EVERYONE does. its acculy good to get scared before you go and perform. cause then you know that everone does and your not the only one.but in other words..... "nothin to it but to do it!" it cant be any easier than that. thats the only thing you need to do. and i garentee to you, that you will be amzing!

Just close your eyes and imagine your alone, no one is infront of you and if there is some noise that disturbs you fotget about it imagine yourself with whatever makes you feel better and start singing

ok i have advice start out with your back to the addience then as you sing keep saying in your head im trong i can do this then slowly turn around and tart singing

me have same problem so i kinda just gave myself advice...weird

Well it depends. Is singing your hobby or your passion? If it's your hobby then it's normal to be uncomfortable singing in front of people. But if singing is your passion and it's something you love then it shouldn't matter who you're singing in front of. It's your passion and you want to let the whole world know what you can do. Hope this helps! :)

If you have two crazy older brothers I can help. Tell them to watch you while they are in thier boxers then you'll think ok, it's not that bad. If you are an only child or you can't do it close your door, pull down your pants, go in front of a mirror then sing your heart out!

It worked for me and both of my brothers, it's simple but odd...

Try not to think of the reactions of the crowd.
Just sing as you would other times.
I usually not stare at anyone in the crowd. That helps me.

i dont have any advice coz im probs just as bad
had a concert at my school went to sing a solo and forgot my words
soo embaresing and upseting

Im scared too dont worry everybody get scared at something but time pass and you will not feel it anymore, maybe many celebs wen they were little were scared too but look at them now

Just sing, don't care about what people think.

when i sing front of others im always nervous at the start but after 2 seconds its gone. i agree with Bluefire just sing.

I have the same problem.I can't even sing in front of my parents.
Damn,why am I so shy!!!

People always say, "picture the audience in their underwear", I tryed that, my grandpa was in the audience... that wasn't pretty. I don't know how I can get up on stage, I just have tons of confidence

Just think about the music. Get lost in whatever song you're singing and don't even think about the audience. hope this helps! :D

I used to be like you.But then I got a star role in my drama play And I had loads of solo's Just let yourself get lost in your music and if all else fails Close your eyes and imagine you'r bye yourself!Then all fear goes away!

i am still scared to but once i get up there on that stage it just goes away just get up there and have fun that is all that matters hope my advice works i really do

Don't worry be happy

dont worry. Just be your self..... pretend like theyre not there and youll do fine!

I don't know if it says this above, I didn't read it all.
What I do is imagine the audience in their underwear.
No. I don't do that.
I pretend to be confident. The trick is: if you look like you know what you're doing and are having fun. Mostly, people won't even notice if you do make a mistake. It's easier to make a mistake when you are worrying about it.
I don't get as nervous much anymore. I just get excited. When I started singing in front of audiences I would just stand there really still and not move. As I got more confident I started to move and smile, etc. It really has improved my performance.
Hope that helps.

I will comment it on your wall.

sing infront of anything.
(Ex: pets, stuffed animals, little kids who don't understand yet, etc.)
then lead up 2 family and friends. ;)

i have a big problem of scarce i hate singing in front of people but i love singing.i have one friend i can sing to i can sing in front of my sister but nobody else i feel to weird i do.i have sang in public by myself one time people thought i was amazing but that was like three years ago or more.other than that i have just sang in groups./:(

Whenever I sing, I imagine whatever the emotions relate to. When a love song is on, I think of my crush or boyfriend, when a dancing song is on, imagine you dancing in your room! That's how I do it!

I have been singing for a really long time. It has never been super hard for me but I've always thought that was because of the people I know. I've been singing in groups since kindergarten and I love nothing more than being onstage. I think the best advice I have for you is to try and find a group to sing with. Once you get more confident all you have to do is remember that there are people who sang with you that believe in you. I found that for most of my friends that worked really well. My best friend used to not go near a stage and now she loves it almost as much as me.
