I'm not musically educated, I don't know what note is what, and I'm too autistic to do scales or trills, so I have my own strategy. I'd read somewhere that you can learn to sing by singing a wide variety of songs.

I was already in my 50's when I started singing, my father was supposedly a good singer and met my mother and they eloped after she became infatuated with his singing. He met all his future wives and GF that way. So maybe love of singing is in my DNA. Unfortunately, my father was a murderer, he and my mom were both drunks and he punched my mother in the belly while pregnant with me. I got a lazy eye from that, but the baby a year later only lived 4 days. Probably punched harder...

So, I never persued singing when young, but then started singing Karaoke in the Philippines when I went to get married there. They use cabinets like video game machines for Karaoke there and will deliver anywhere when you rent them. My goal is to become a better singer than dear ol' dad, but I'll never know when/if I'll get there so I intend to keep improving. Heh
