Questionable notes are any notes with a questionable significance. in short, this spoiler acknowledges notes that I am aware exist, but do not want to contribute to the singer's range. These involve (but are not limited to) weak vocal fry, uncontrolled slides, very short notes, notes hit at an ambiguous pitch and notes where it is unclear who is singing.

D3s, E3s, A4s, and B4s from a live rendition of "Catch the Rainbow", from Cardiff 1983.

[Hennessy Macklemore III]

What about the spoken passage from "I'll Remember You"? Vilhja originally had that pitched as getting down to C2, but I'm only hearing D2. Still, worth an inclusion either way I think.


Also, I've had some doubts about this before, but now I'm actually hearing the ending of "Let the Music Do the Talking" get up to C♯6! I remember Vilhja had it pitched as that for his range video, and weirdly enough at the time I couldn't hear it getting that high, but now I totally do, so whatever. Probably worth listing that one as a green note though? Regardless of what its pitch is.

[Baronessa]

I want to get some more opinions on that "Let the Music Do the Talking" note, because I can not hear anything near C♯6 for the life of me there.

[Smitty.]

That is definitely not C#6
I hear it top at F#5

[Zedd Squared]

Sounds it like peaks at G5 to me.

[Hennessy Macklemore III]

I'm hearing it start on C♯6, with the first few staccato screams all being on that pitch before going lower for the more sustained one. If no one else agrees I'll concede, but can we at least agree that it should be listed as a green note?

Also, thoughts on the "I'll Remember You" lows?

[Baronessa]

Green af yeah. He has a few of those too, so some re-colouring might be in order.

I'm hearing pure breath a breathy C2 at around 3:26 in "I'll Remember You", but I agree that D2 is the countable note from that passage.

[Hennessy Macklemore III]

Found a B5 here, along with an E3 at 0:45, A4s at 1:05, a D5 at 1:39, maybe an E5 at 2:43 (though I'm having a really hard time telling if this note gets higher or if it's overtones or what), a B4 at 3:08, and a G♯5 at 3:48 (which he kinda cracks into, but still sounds fairly controlled once he hits it). Having a hard time pitching a few of those screams though, so they could use more review.
There's also what sounds like maybe a spoken B1 at 1:35, but I'm not quite sure if it's Joe. According to Discogs, Billy Sheehan and Pat Torpey did backing vocals on this track, so it seems plausible that it's Sheehan doing it, like on the original.


Sustained G5 here, lots of B♭4s at 0:42, D5s at 1:26, C5 at 1:45, a short E♭5 at 2:06, and an F5 at 3:34.

I'm not clocking those brief screams getting any higher than B5, so I feel like we can safely sidestep them in favour of the more clearly controlled notes in that performance.

But yeah the diction on that B1 sounds nothing like JLT lol.

[Hennessy Macklemore III]

Several D5s right off the bat here at 0:10, A4 at 0:44, B4 at 1:20, backing D3s at 1:25, E5 at 2:08, and probably the best B5 I've heard by him to date at 4:32, at fucking age 70 no less! Then a C5 at 5:13, and another crazy sustained scream at 6:05, this time on A5! I think this dude just went and pulled a Glenn Hughes in his old age or something. :eek:

[Zedd Squared]

I listened to the last two Sunstorm albums JLT sang on in the last few years and yeah I gotta agree, his voice has aged tremendously well.

[surfnsnipe]

I’ve always considered those b4’s in Can’t Let You Go to be memorizing

Several D5s right off the bat here at 0:10, A4 at 0:44, B4 at 1:20, backing D3s at 1:25, E5 at 2:08, and probably the best B5 I've heard by him to date at 4:32, at fucking age 70 no less! Then a C5 at 5:13, and another crazy sustained scream at 6:05, this time on A5! I think this dude just went and pulled a Glenn Hughes in his old age or something. :eek:

Can we please get this B5 added though

Wasn't this Will Shaw? It sounds much more like Will. And he's credited for "vocalizations", those lyric-less high screams are definitely him. 
For reference

That B5 does seem incredibly unbelievable considering how broken up and shrill JLT sounds in that register these days. He's still got a great belting voice, but Glenn Hughes he isn't.

You...might be on to something here. I didn't know he did any additional vocals on the album besides the disc 2 version of "Prescient", but I see where he's credited for vocals on this track now on MetalArchives. Given the level of control those screams have, I would probably agree that it makes more sense for them to be him rather than JLT. 

Baronessa do you think we could get the other notes from that song added anyway? Still a pretty good D3-E5 without the B5 and A5.

Brief sung A2 at 1:03... lmao

Joe Lynn Turner is a strange case because everything from his vocal timbre to his speaking voice implies a slightly lower voice than how he constantly sings yet his lower range is ridiculously underutilised. Perhaps it's morning voice going on in the many interview clips where he sounds quite deep (he sounds like he could spontaneously bust out an E2 in the video linked above) but even then, his voice seems very averagely placed so it's strange that he hasn't utilised that part of his voice more. Either way, a crazy talented singer and an interesting person based on the interviews!
