Update october 2008
Haven't updated this profile for half a year now, so thought I'd give a little update...
I know I haven't been too communicative lately, but I'm actually not looking for new "friends". I've actually been neglecting my personal friends a little by singing every day here on singsnap. I've got a pretty busy life, I've got an IT consultancy firm, and every spare time I had, I've spent singing over the last year. Had some tough times during that period and singing helped me cope with that a lot.
Don't think I'm an egocentric person or anything, it just takes a long time before I call someone "friend". If you send me a personal message with a question or some remark, I will always answer sincere and honest, but I'm not into chitchatting about silly things. I do not believe in god and never will, although I think I live more by the rules of christians than most christians do. Just don't need a set of rules to know what's right or wrong, this should be self-evident...
I've been on the internet for over 15 years now and I've been part of communities like this before, so I know it's addicting, but I've also experienced the pitfalls of virtual communities and identities. I just like to sing, and that's what I do... :-)
And of course I appreciate the comments and views of my recordings, but don't expect anything in return, since I do not expect anything from anyone, just live and let live...
Update
About Me
Hi, I am Frank, aged 37 from the netherlands.
Well, I think it's time to update my profile. I didn't update the song list below for a few months now, since I had some 500 extra recordings added :-) Too much time needed to update it. There is still a lot of crap in my recordings, but I know I've also done some really good ones, which don't have any views yes, so just browse my recordings for songs you like and see how I did. I like to try everything, from soul to reggae to blues to rock to evergreens. I'll try anything...
I actually started recording my voice since the summer of 2006, just for myself, and been letting people listen to me on the internet since summer 2007, before that nobody ever heard me sing. Now I'm in the process to overcome my stagefright. Tried karaoke night twice, but couldn't get my breath to put out anything decent :-)
So since a few weeks I started singing in a rockband, which is pretty cool, and you don't have to mind the quality of your voice that much. Still rehearsing, and our first gig is planned in a few months, so let's see what happens...

My old profile
Just here to have some fun with singing. I don't really practice songs, just try to sing, and find out my vocal capabilities. Still exploring my style for singing. This means that in a lot of cases I try to copy the original artist on songs, just to see how they got a certain sound. Not practing also means that there is also a lot of crap in my recordings. I've setup some songs here for you that should be worth to listen to :
