I agree that there's room for doubt with that D6, but asserting that they simply would like the note to be Ivan isn't exactly a productive counterpoint. That was a general statement about fans and notewatching, I wasn't claiming that specifically about the poster. A large number of sites claim A5 as his highest note, so the Bb5 from a video is an interesting find. If he was capable of singing D6 in a studio, then why didn't he go higher in that show ? A C6 would have been more worthy of his obvious pose as an operatic soprano. |

Why didn't the eagles fly the ring into Mount Doom? |

Why didn't the eagles fly the ring into Mount Doom? Because it would have made the story boring ? Or maybe the talking eagle would have been overcome by the ring faster than a hobbit would have been ? Gwaihir, now terrible eagle lord of middle earth. Even Galadriel wouldn't handle the ring when Frodo requested her to do so. |

Ivan rebroff not hitting a D6 in that show would have made the story boring.

Another huge find. I don't think anyone can argue that this isn't Ivan, the timber is the same and it doesnt sound like a woman. I don't deny that there could be some pitching up or something, but no one can know. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_Lop2ROuMIEdit: It is entirely possible that Ivan knew of the whistle register, and could do it that way. Cause if this is not pitched up, he's definitely not using regular falsetto How would we know that that is Ivan Rebroff ? The Bb5 is from a video, your new D6 from some old record could be literally anyone. The fact that some people would like it to be Ivan Rebroff doesn't mean that it is. Ive been trying to listen to all of his albums in chronological order. When there are other singers, he makes it obvious in a way that I cant explain. This song is only him. Try listening again to all the 5th octave stuff and then what I send. Ive gotten used to him, the timber and the color is the same up there. Also, I can imagine ill be able to find more stuff in the 6th octave as I listen to more albums We can keep denying everything, but like I said in another comment here, this guy has made like a billion songs, some that arent even on the internet. An example is an English version of kalinka hes done, which I wish I could find . But in general theres not a lot of video content of him online. I mean just like with the songs, hes done a gazzilion live shows and online we have like 3-4. And lastly, again this is on another comment ive made here, he has stated in an interview that he can do 5 octaves sometimes, and in the same comment he has said he doesnt go above 3,5-4 in concerts. So who the hell knows what he can do in studio. |

I'm not denying that it could be him, but it would be helpful if you could find a source that confirms that it is, or that he sang that high commercially. I can shriek my way up to Bb5 in falsetto but my useful range is substantially lower. Maybe Ivan Rebroff could put up Eb1-Eb6 making his max range 5 octaves, but that doesn't mean that he was able to sing Eb6 or anywhere near that to commercial standards. But again, like I said, there's not a whole lot about him out there. We cant be sure about anything. And if every note on this site had to be confirmed then every singer would have minus 1-2 octaves lol. And why are you agreeing with the a#5? What's confirming it? It could all be pre recorded and lip synced. I mean even me, the guy you said is wishing he reached the 6th octave denied that the a#5 was done live. And what do you mean if he sang that high commercially? Live? Cause then even the A5 thats here in the original post is not countable in that sense. And all the videos of him online where he is actually in them moving and singing are mostly staged little sketches or shows where its even obvious most of the times its lip synced. The only truly confirmed live of him where hes actually singing online is the concert he did in Sydney www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzAGb4w6YJg&t=4212s |

I don’t think that’s enough of a similarity to warrant a comparison though quite frankly. Even in that silly moment Ivan is watching his technique for the most part. Frank’s singing there sounded however like a drunken clown. It is enjoyable in its own way but technically kinda silly comparison to me. You were the one who wanted Frank Sinatra's high C to be included in his range. lol It counting does not mean it isn’t a bad note. |

Mate, that's a G4, not a D6. There's a faint d6 on the back, raise the volume |

The D6 doesn't really sound like him and also it might be an overtone.
Edit: and also why is the D6 clip a 360 video of a picture?

Here's a clip that isn't on the list : Here he sings beautifully all the way from a chest E2 to a falsetto E5. The B1s in the background are sung by an oktavist. Its funny actually, he uses the same ending in a lot of his songs. Like this one: www.youtube.com/watch?v=PtuX1xs2yKA (amazing vocal range show off btw you should listen to the whole thing) |

Also, yes, there have been female singers in his songs, but its always just background vocals, and never, again, NEVER in the intro of a song. |
