I used to have a voice, kind of comparable to Ann Wilson or Amy Lee. Not trying to brag, just that I had a pretty good voice. But, age and multiple respiratory infections (I have pretty bad asthma) have made my voice croaky bad.

My favorite to sing was Bohemian Rhapsody, and it makes me sad I can't sing it anymore.
