How true! Some years ago I used to perform a safety program in elementary schools, and I'd always put a puppet into one of the sketches. One year I wrote a song for the puppet character, and ironically the only way I could sing it in the correct key was in the character's voice. If I try to sing it as myself I absolutely cannot hit the notes! But I put on "Buster's" voice and I could sing it very easily. Quite an amazing thing, the human voice!
Also an amazing thing, puppetry is! I've always marveled at the power puppets can hold over an audience. It's a mystery!

So here is an answer to not being able to sing. Neither me the (robot) or my puppeteer partner(humanoid) can really sing. We are not tone deaf but we don't have broadway voices either so here is a way you can solve your singing problems.
