In fact, with a little practice you could be the next "American Idol" platinum-selling recording artist, or stage sensation. It's time for Pavarotti to step down and for you to step up as monarch of songdom. Whether you're a beginning vocalist or a seasoned songster, "Singing for Dummies" makes it easy for you to achieve your songbird dreams.
