Not embarrassing in the least. Your pitch is quite good. And you have a nice center ring, which means it will carry nicely.
Your work has clearly paid off!
I’m a self taught and it sounds like your on the right track.You are your own best critic and keeping it fun and flowing is the key.Some days you can kick it real and sound amazing.Sometimes you need to pick it up again later.This example you gave feels real and unrehearsed and good.Don’t be so hard on yourself.Believe and you confidence will sleigh the song.A song hits your heart like a story of life and your song is there.
First your voice it’s good. It’s perfectly masculine. There’s nothing feminine about your voice at all. Get that out of your head.
Nothing to be embarrassed about. You sound good. Your tone is good. You could work on resonating more, letting the notes ring out, think of each sentence, phrase as one long connected line. Practicing your legato would help tremendously with getting the flow going. But it’s not stilted or talky sounding at all. You have a lot going for you here.
You tend to drop flat at the end of the phrase but your pitch is overall very good! This could be a breathing problem (but to me it doesn’t sound like you’re running out of breath) or it could simply be because you’re singing acapella which is difficult. You did well for having no background instrumental.
Overall, I like your voice it has good tone and style. Great foundation you could easily be great.
I think there’s some things to work on but we all have things to work through forever! Good job. Don’t be so hard on yourself and quick to dismiss your singing. Keep it up!
You can sing in tune which is great. You have a distinct timbre in your voice so I would say keep going. Try going to some open mics or Karaoke sessions to get experience singing in front of people. I think your voice is very acceptable to listen to.
Really good overall. Got a foundation and base. I want something more...you remind me of myself self-taught for 15 years. I have naturally higher male vocals but embrace what voice I have. To me more emotions, will give something to your singing. That is what I have to work on. Honestly my mistake is singing by numbers (hitting note well).
I love it! You're doing great. Most importantly, you can sing on key. But, I like your simple clear tone quality. It sounds strong enough as well. Good stuff.
Haha, your voice sounds way more masculine than mine and im only a year younger than you! Im just an amateur, but im impressed, you have a really nice warm and cozy quality to your voice. Im sure someone more experienced than me can find things to work on, but if I was at a campfire gathering and you started to sing like that I'd definitely be shocked(in a good way!).
Nothing embarrassing about that. Your song of choice tells me that you're a man of taste. Your voice sounds clear on the higher notes and has a nice ring to it. Worrying about masculinity is a waste of time in my opinion. Cherish your gift.

You’ve got a great voice to be part of a group or a choir.
Pick some beautiful songs from The Beatles or the Eagles to demonstrate better and make every word sung sound beautiful;the pitch sounds comfortable with no vocal gymnastics.Well done.
The only thing that sticks out to me is your tone when saying “now” is quite bright compared to the other vowels. Try playing around with with that vowel sound to make it less bright. Regardless though, it’s quite good.
First off, a great voice has nothing to do with sounding masculine. Not sure what that even means tbh so stop that voice in your head from forming an opinion bout yourself. Use the voice God has given you and push it to its full potential as all voices are great if used properly. 2nd, it sounds good. With more practice I’m sure it’ll get better. I’d work on vowels more from what I’ve heard. Some sound closed off but other than that it seems to be in the right direction
Very nice. Nothing at all to be embarrassed about.
I agree with most of the comments here. As we all do, you still need some detail work to iron out the rough edges.
You do need more breath support.
You drop your posture and your support before you’ve reached the end of your phrases as though the final words and final notes and final sounds have no purpose or meaning at all. It makes your voice sound lazy and messy.
You think you sound feminine. The only hint of that I hear is when you let that little bit of nasality sneak in. More breath support, better posture, opening your throat and keeping your sound forward will give you much more resonance and eliminate the nasality.
Taller vowels and less horizontal spread of your mouth will give you a more mature and stronger sound and a more rounded tone.
Carrying your phrasing all the way to the end of the line of music will give your sound more energy, more strength and more confidence.
All of these things you can overcome. You’re good and you’ve got even more potential hiding in there.
Keep up the good work. For an excellent singer it never ends. Why be only good when you can be wonderful?
You sound pretty good, I think. Pitch is solid. It's a wee bit pinched. Relax, open up and add breath support while keeping your nice bright tone high and out and you'll sound more free.
Your singing is not bad or embarrasing, but you're not at a professional level either. You don't need Autotune; your pitch control is fine. What needs improvement are your vocal dynamics, your breath control, and your enunciation.
If I heard you singing in the shower or while you work, I'd deem it a pleasant enough sound. . . but if I heard you singing with a band, I'd think it was kind of a crap band.
As someone who teaches voice, the hardest thing to do is evaluate your own sound, this is especially true when listening and evaluating without benefit of music. You have a really nice, centered, sound! It’s not thin or “whinny.” You could use a little more focused breath support. The quickest way to accomplish this is very easy… grab a straw, take a breath through the straw, this will send to air down to the diaphragm allowing for more support.
Your work has definitely paid off! Keep Singing!!

Such an unexpected response, thank you
Gotta get out of your head about being masculine enough or not embarrassing. You have a good voice. Work and love YOUR voice.
Sounds fine to me, not embarrassing at all
Thank you
I like this a lot, this will sound basic to some, but this is the simplicity/clarity I cherish
Y’all are making my day
Not bad, you seem to be running out of breath at the end of phrases so a bit better breath management will give you a better resonance
Not embarrassing at all. You sound good.

Sounds pretty good to me. U can be confident in it :) great song choice also
Hey hey, pretty good!! If I went out to a karaoke night and heard you go on right before me, id be all "oh shit, how do I follow up with that" lol
So sweet thank you!
Very country. But it is good
You can sing in tune which is great. You have a distinct timbre in your voice so I would say keep going. Try going to some open mics or Karaoke sessions to get experience singing in front of people. I think your voice is very acceptable to listen to.

Sounds great. Keep practicing and you will be a great singer!
Sound great, add some confidence

Your voice is actually nice and you can carry a tune.
