I just don't have the sort of range to sing a lot of these songs. It also happens that the majority of songs I like are sung by women. It's hard finding slow-ish songs sung.

I wish we could alter pitch = (

It is hard finding good songs, but sometimes with enough practice you can push your voice to do things you never thought possible!
Hmm, I could be misunderstanding, but from what Providence and basket said, would that mean that we can't actually sing something in a different octave? I'd like to know the official position of kcl822 on this since, while I'm going to be singing something without changing the octave, two friends of mine are planning on singing songs in lower octaves than the original.
