There's nothing really musical about that G#5.
I'd count the G#2

Did you hear the second G#5 too?
I think it sounds worse than the previous one but at least it gives the notes a bit of context as it is the start of APFMH.

Maybe count with italics?

[1999]

Could be an option too! However, I do see Gilad's point of view, it is not the "best of notes" let's put it that way.

[1999]

I'll keep the G#5 in the spoiler box as of now, as I'm not sure. If others would like the note to be added to the main thread we can discuss it.
I'd like more opinions on that G#2 too.

Has anyone heard this possible Bb2?

Also, what do you guys think of this A5?

Can't figure out if there's an actual A2 underneath or is just an A3 - With You

Found another G#5, thoughts?

[1999]

So I've counted the G#2 from Walking Dead and the G#5 from Bleed it Out as of now, let me know what you guys think.
Also, any more opinion on the above post?

EDIT

Took the notes out, still too unsure lol

Bb2 from the official version of The Walking Dead, thoughts?
Still on the official version, there's a low back vox on the left channel, when he sings blistering pain: link - sounds fairly low, a bit skeptical tbh.

[Osmosis]

- "Walking Dead" Bb2 - I think he does get down to a G#2 in the backing vox on the word 'will' in the phrase you've linked which would take priority over the Bb2. It is more noticible in the 'pre-final mix' version you linked before. Sounds like a lot of Sam Fender's lows that are also buried way down in the mix.

- "With You" A2? - I think that's an A2.

- The latest G#5 you linked (Bleed It Out) - reminds me of the "Here Comes the Sun" E5 you currently have spoilered for Chris Martin. Just a little naff really. Maybe one for the spoiler box?

- As far as the A5 is concerned, has he done that in other performances of that song? It sounds intentional to me?

[Gilad]

Here's a cool thing I found looking for clip-off clips: Chester doing a 16-17 second scream in this performance of Faint!

[Bink]

hey uhh... what happened to the bold A2 on "System"?

[1999]

I guess I didn't find it as good as I used to remember lol

Let me know if you guys want it back!

[Gilad]

I think I'm hearing an F#2 on "when all I know"

[senatorsenpai]

I'm hearing it too, that's a good catch.

[1999]

Okay, heard the note 10 times, EQed as well and I'm fairly certain you're correct! amazing catch

[crack]

[1999]

Found another pretty cool E5 from Faint: link

[christianvta]

Question, is the screamed c#5 for My Own Summer (shove it) the whistles in this version? First one is at 1:00 youtu.be/wixN4-5WIGU

[1999]

That's the F#6 yes!

I'd like to make an argument for this B2 from Breaking the Habit, I think it might be worth counting.

Also, I can't figure out if there's an actual A2 here or is just an A3: With You

It could perhaps use some boldface (?)

[Macca]

The A2 you linked is in fact a A2.

[1999]

Is Chester going up to an Eb5 in the studio version of APFMH as well?: link (Acapella 1) - link (Acapella 2)

'Try to take the BEST of me'

[Gilad]

I hear APFMH get up to D5.
And With You is just an A3 with grit, similar to how the C2 in the spoiler is produced.

[1999]

That APFMH note's a tough call...
Thought so about With You.

Am I going crazy or Points of Authority background falsetto never actually goes up to an Eb5? I think highest I can hear is a C#5

[Gilad]

I can hear the very first "you love" get up to an Eb5 at least. If you slow down the video it's easier to hear.

[senatorsenpai]

It sounds to me like the first line of each verse starts on E♭5 and the second starts on C♯5.

Yes, I hear that too !


The hesitation between C♯5 and E♭5 comes from the fact the fact that the "You love" starts at C♯5 for a tiny bit and then slips to E♭5, like it doesn't start at E♭5 immediately on the first line of each verse

[1999]

Thanks for the help guys!

D5 here?: link

On another note, here's the whole screaming section of By Myself, Chester only: link - the note that comes in at 1:18 sounds definitely higher than C#5, I'd say around F#5, however, it might just be overtones... thoughts?
