ZarSullen

this bit is from ed sheeran and passenger heart's on fire


this is frome Hozier from eden

someone told that in both I'm shouting but I don't really know, does it sound bad? and if I'm shouting how can I control that to be loudly and sound better?

I would agree there is shouting going on there. The way to sing louder without shouting has to do with growing resonance. You need to start from the beginning and work on technique. Specifically support and air management. Check out Kens YouTube for tips.

even so, would you say it sounds bad? I think it sounds pretty cool but again that's me

Not bad, but there is alot that can be done to make it sound better. Your pitch was much better in the first sample, except for the top notes where you yodeled a bit, that is an area you can strengthen to get the note spot on.
