Idk if it’s just me, but the upper end of his “range” sounds SUPER fake

So I'm about to put out the Adam Lambert thread, and I haven't found any notes under A2, except for this E2. I'm really on the fence cuz it's solid but it's quite a distance away and it's not as high quality as the rest of his range is. I'd count it as an italic note. Yes it's slightly underwhelming, but I don't think we would be questioning its inclusion if he had more notes in the F2-G♯2 range to fill the gap between it and his next-lowest. Actually kinda surprised he still hasn't done anything else below A2 after all these years though :surprised:

Alright, at long last, we've got a note with some controversy around it again {Note}
This E♭5 at the start here. When I originally posted my Chris Stapleton thread it seemed like the majority consensus was that it was Chris, though Gilad was arguing that it may have been Ed. Now with the new Bruno Mars thread up, it's being brought into question again, as kaji has brought up the possibility of it being Bruno. He and I seem to be more or less torn between Chris and Bruno, since it does sound very similar tonally to some notes from both singers around the same area. With all this considered, I thought this thread would be a good place to discuss it.

If contributors could post evidence (links) showing why they think it's their suggested singer, it is likely a consensus could be reached more quickly. The Ed Sheeran Hanover live recording of BLOW would indicate it's not him (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DmbH1W2m5tE). See also the Prague gig: www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLPUdqTMLo4. I'm not into Bruno Mars, but if someone can come up with a convincing example of a constricted bellow, from Bruno? :), at D5-E5, that might be persuasive. FWIW, I wasn't be persuaded by this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRwU4huYj-UChris has this in his arsenal: www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCFhhtlliKo - the holler at 16 secs in doesn't sound too far away tonally from the Eb5 in BLOW, more constriction in the BLOW note as it's higher. But consider this: Bruno probably knows his way around a desk, it wouldn't be too much of a stretch that he has processed both Chris's and Ed's vocals (maybe all 3 of 'em!), perhaps mixed them in some way, and that's why it's proving tough to decide which guy it is... Not sure how you'd then go about attributing the note to one of the singers, mind.

Sorry, meant to come back to this sooner, but I've got some clips I can offer. kaji offered these clips in a conversation in the Discord that we had the other night: {Team Bruno}
According to him, this clip has less distortion but a similar tone:
And these are some of the bold high notes from the Chris Stapleton thread that have a similar sound. I don't quite have anything from around the E♭5 area, but they're close enough, I think: {Team Chris} This one sounds the closest in my opinion:
I don't have any clips for Ed, and I'm less inclined to think it's him anyway with everything that's been brought up here and elsewhere. At this point, I'm almost more convinced that it's Bruno, but I could really go either way.

Thank you for the clips, Gatr and Kaji. Based on these clips, it would seem that the BLOW Eb5 is indeed more likely Bruno, and that is something I did not expect to write!
I hear Chris singing further back in his throat than Bruno does in these clips (Chris has more of an "ah" tone than Bruno's "or") which is what leads me to think it's more likely Bruno for the BLOW note.
Live and learn, thank you :smiley:

Alright, here's another couple of notes to fight about: There are screams at this timestamp and at 3:39 that we've been hearing differently on Discord. themriron2, Seb and Platypus seem to be hearing them as F♯5s, while Baronessa and I are hearing C♯5s with illusions up to F♯5 from the guitar. What say ye, TRP hivemind?

{Spoiler}Alright, here's another couple of notes to fight about: There are screams at this timestamp and at 3:39 that we've been hearing differently on Discord. themriron2 , Seb and Platypus seem to be hearing them as F♯5s, while Baronessa and I are hearing C♯5s with illusions up to F♯5 from the guitar. What say ye, TRP hivemind? I can tell why people would say both, but im inclined to say that its an F#5. It has a pretty clear note at the end of the scream which is definitely F#, before the guitar properly kicks in and reaches that higher register which would definitely create illusions if it were to play at the same time.

I can sort of hear it both ways between C♯ and F♯. If I had to pick one I'd probably be more inclined to say F♯ at the moment, but I'm not entirely sold on that tbh.

Sounds like a Questionable Note to me. On the timestamped scream, I was tempted to say C#4 and every note from there on up. I ran it through an online spectrum analyser (https://academo.org/demos/spectrum-analyzer/) and it confirmed what my ears heard, a wash of frequencies in which you could legitimately hear any of the suggested pitches. Screenshot enclosed for reference, you can see the wash of frequencies that appears for the scream.
