Hey, how much chupa could a chimmychupa chimmy if a chimmychupa could chimmy chupa? My guess is about 40 pounds per hour.

Chimmy Chupa bought some Chupa, but the Chupa, it was Chipa. If she put it in her Chupa, it would make her Chimmy Chipa, but a bit of Chupa Chimmy, that would make her Chupa Chimmy.

I'm a he

What?!? No way. I thought you were a ChimmyChupa and that's what the C2 stood for. Aw, shucks. I gotta read up on your species, chimmy. I'm sorry.

While we're on the subject, here's the C2 that chimmy mentioned from the song "Employee of the Month":




And here's a C♯5 from the episode "Employee of the Month":




And here's a B4 followed by a brief E♭5 from the video game Employee of the Month:




And for good measure, I also tried calling up my buddy Greg, who was employee of the month once at Burger King, to see if he has any significant notes to offer, but he won't return my calls. I'll let you know if he gets back to me.

[Smitty.]

man none of those notes got zero musical context

Yeah but in the tongue twister its a she so I kept it

[Anacrusis]

Trust me. For Gilad's sake, I wouldn't have wanted him to encode all these tedious variations of the phrase "Employee of the Month" anyway. I was just taking advantage of the fact that there happens to be a SpongeBob episode, song, and video game all with the title that chimmychupa mentioned earlier.

But I do feel bad for spamming a thread without offering something potentially countable, so here's some notes from a show Tom did in 1992 with a rock 'n' roll cover band called Tom Kenny and the Pushballs (similar to the Hi Seas, which Gilad has notewatched):

• youtu.be/VFxPbXkgheo?t=330 Here, Tom sings almost an entire verse on F4, with some dips above that as well. Yet another testament to his vocal stamina. The song is called "Moose on the Loose" by Roddy Jackson.
• youtu.be/VFxPbXkgheo?t=429 Here's an A4 that I thought was kinda cool, as it's one of the highest belts I've seen him sustain with his regular voice. I can't identify the song through Google, but if we had to name it, it might be "Congratulations to Me" because of the refrain.
• youtu.be/VFxPbXkgheo?t=94 A5 during the sax solo. There's a chance it's not him since he's out of frame at that point, but I believe it could be him due to how the A5 cuts through all other noise in the recording. The song is called "Lover's Curse" by Bracey Everett.
• youtu.be/VFxPbXkgheo?t=828 B♭5 that I know is him, though the pitch/quality might be disputable. The song is "Heeby-Jeebies" by Little Richard.

Those are just a few notes that stood out to me. There's a lot more if anyone ever wants to check out the show.

And as I promised, I will let you all know if Greg gets back to me. There's still a chance that the Burger King whose number I spammed might want a sponsorship deal with Range Planet. If so, I have no clue how Whoppers, the King, and notewatching would all mix, but that's what's taking us to the next level, I'm tellin' ya.

youtu.be/M-lum5ZjniY?t=203 - this might already be in the thread and I'm just illiterate but here's an A4 from him singing the word girl theme song as Dr Two-Brains

[Macca]

This doesn't appear to be in here.
Starting at 0:35 G4, G♯4, B♭4 then at 0:42 F3

[Macca]

Some low singing from Kenny as SpongeBob in Help Wanted

static.wikia.nocookie.net/spongebob/images/9/9f/BargnmartReprise.mp4/revision/latest?cb=20230506211542
Edit: Some more SpongeBob singing from Kenny

0:05-0:10 F3, B♭4

[Macca]

Some of the songs have different names.
"Attitude of Gratitude" is "Gratitude"
"The Very First Christmas to Me" is "The Very First Christmas"
& "The Most Important Meal" is "Gary's Way"

[BAZanine]

Tom hits the E2 proper in the Distant Lands tease of "Remember You":

[Macca]

Some singing from Kenny in Battle for Bikini Bottom

21:08 B♭4 47:11 G2 54:02 F3
I'll edit this post as i go along
Actually i'm not wanting to go through almost 6 and a half hours of gameplay footage to find notes. Maybe someone else has enough time to go through it all

[Macca]

D3, A4, & D5 here


F♯4 Here

[Macca]

The Very First Christmas has a B2 & My Tighty Whitey's has a B♭2.

[Macca]

Here's something pretty interesting.

C5

[TheCMRecluse]

One of the first VAs who made me realize that even voice actors can sing as well.

[funnypun]

He voiced a hammer and a person in "Handy Manny", and sang a bunch of stuff as them. Here are the notable notes I heard from it:
youtu.be/ego2FVcd9Kk?si=TE8vokq4GsNLpnqu&t=118 B4?
youtu.be/_tPfCmg5kR8?si=Mj9hGk8nKNu5MAjq&t=52 C♯3, Bb2
youtu.be/O2WdfdYD9JQ?si=NcoyQ_ImIU-zoO25&t=8 C3
youtu.be/2upoylBYYIw?si=kxeWSZ5SnBumQViG&t=4 B2? that might dip lower, and also an f5 woo that might not be him.
youtu.be/u1nFFVf1FkM?si=-P2riQiLl60Nc4I6&t=32 A2, there's a bunch of them throughout the song.
youtu.be/ZW26y-5w9hg?si=AMgh4Gu2yjNeFcNG&t=14 G2?
youtu.be/u1nFFVf1FkM?si=ZtLKDCDvWRv61JxC&t=28 F♯2? from the same song as the A2

SPOILER: Click to show

{A bunch of other slightly less cool but still significant notes from it condensed in here so it doesn't take up too much space} youtu.be/5osxd_yMa_Q?si=ASnP4dXNualmr1zy&t=9 Bb4
youtu.be/A5vvgzi_Kyc?si=y2BWdEUjPxn3oPnC&t=78 G4
youtu.be/ZW26y-5w9hg?si=qSJA24qOeMbLYUBu&t=3 G4
youtu.be/u1nFFVf1FkM?si=a1OOTIUkwZZLgFlw&t=83 F4 sustained with one of the goofiest tones I've ever heard
youtu.be/QKVSwAYXGGo?si=DKTiCZI0lm0rWgfZ&t=51 F3
youtu.be/8gjAlYYv7t4?si=LBHCg9k-rj4bklGT&t=7 F3?
youtu.be/jUj8RJwoaf0?si=FR1yipJzujLoDYh1&t=11 E3
youtu.be/ego2FVcd9Kk?si=AmI-9Az1yBct4NrR&t=67 E3
youtu.be/p7RNg_Ij3HU?si=bpkXh7rYUm5hRbmH&t=5 D3?
youtu.be/NGc9kFrZNYo?si=X9MEvyk4I1p3kPYg&t=55 E3 and also a short C♯3?

Also, in terms of SpongeBob stuff, I think this is him singing a pretty long F♯5
youtu.be/MSws3Sk9oxs?si=AuT2hxUGjGyT3IaQ&t=94
Here he hits a d3 in the beginning and an E5 at the end but the musicality of it is a bit questionable
