Keep in mind that your voice will sound differently than what you're used to and that's normal, but can you pick up anything else? If you can and you believe it's a concern, it may be time to broach the parents about it.
The only recording device I have is on my 3DS, and it only records ten second snippets, but I made do.

I tried recording myself singing, because it requires you to vary pitch and inflection. But it sounded fairly flat when played back. The same thing happened with spoken sentences. I can't record anything long enough to see what I sound like in real conversation, but it seems like if your singing is flat, then you're either tone-deaf (I'm not), or something's wrong.
