I've been watching vocal covers on YouTube and suddenly felt envious of them because I wanna sing really well too! But my voice is terrible! Is it too late for me now to take voice lessons? :(

I don't think that it is too late to take voice (singing?) lessong. I was a professional musician and I was given voice training lessons when I was 25 years old by a professional singer. After about 6 months my singing voice was good enough to sing solo and harmony on stage. It was all a matter of learning to breath properly and how to project my voice correctly. So if I were you, I would find myself a singing teacher, or someone who know how to teach you to sing better, and go for it. _Derek

Hi there, you have nothing to worry about at all, 21 is the perfect age, as you're voice isn't at its full potential until you're in your 30s so you have a lot of time to develop and train it. Good luck! :)

I wouldn't say that it's too late for you. I don't think that we're ever to old to learn something new.

it is never too late, but if your voice is terrible, what's the point?

Why would you think you were too old. You are never too old to learn anything new, and age will have no bearing on voal traniing to help you improve your voice. If this is something you really want to do then go out there and do it. If you don't try it you will regret it for the rest of your life. If after training your voice is still terrible at least you know you have tried.
