Answer 1

The beginning was a bit shaky like you said. But overall it was okay. You definitely need to work on your diction and breath support but keep at it.

Answer 2

It sounds quite good.  You are in tune and have a nice voice.  It just needs a bit more 'grunt'!  I think it would really help if you work on supporting the sound from your breath.  Take deep breaths and feel your ribs slowly squeeze the air out as you sing.  Also try laughing and feel what muscles in your tummy you use.  These should be engaged when you sing.  Sounding good though!

Answer 3

Sounds really good, needs a bit more power but very good and great song choice.
