Scott,
I sympathise completely.
To alter slightly a wonderful quote by Billy Connolly, my singing voice
sounds like "a goose with gas in the fog".
But with a but of luck, "Minute By Minute" or "Dependin' On You" might be a
little kinder on my limited range than many other Doobie songs, so I might
just get away with singing them without making a complete fool of myself.
Cheers,
Mark (Australia)
