TRPers have never been known for their perceptions of time

I think the bolded "No Stranger to Love" D6 is actually a C#6.
Also, going through the other bolded notes, I think some marked as blue should be put as black instead. The G#5 in "Atmosphere", the A5 in "Push!", the Bb5 in "Kings and Queens", the B5s in "Coast to Coast" and "Medusa", and maybe even the C6 in "How Do You Feel?" sound connected enough to be marked as black.

It sounds pretty inbetween to me. Sharp C♯6 or flat D6 the eternal mystery of life.

We like to argue over which notes sound 'connected' and stuff I suppose, but I'm not sure what that really means. He's certainly not connecting those notes to his chest register on any of those passages. The "Medusa" B5 and the "How Do You Feel?" C6 don't sound very black at all to me. The "Atmosphere" G♯5 sounds the blackest of those notes, I suppose. The other ones seem a bit more up-for-debate, but functionally they're much lighter than "The Innocence" G♯5 for example and that's really what makes or breaks it on the OP at the moment.

If I decided to mark all notes that sound like that black his falsetto notes would decrease significantly. It's really just about the information you want to convey on a thread like this where the singer basically sounds the same throughout his high range. I might change how I mark falsetto on this thread in the future, who knows.

I don't see much difference between those notes and stuff like Ian Gillan's B5s in "Fighting Man" that are listed as black.

tbf Ian Gillan's thread literally had no blue notes until I started adding the notes from the last two albums

But I'd probably still color those B5s black regardless

Personally, I would have labelled every single non-distorted Gillan scream blue, but that's just how I would have conveyed the information there. The point being that I don't think note colour is an objective concept. What we're really conveying with these colours is tone and not much else.
