{Questionable Notes}B♭5 ("Motor City Boy"^[1a])
G5 ("Everything's Gonna Be Cool This Christmas"^[2a])
..................................................
[1] Questionable quality
a. Short, non-melodic scream

[2] Questionable representativeness
a. Short falsetto exclamations

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.

..................................................
• Blue denotes falsetto passages.
• Bold denotes outstanding passages.
• Italics denote non-melodic passages.
• Underlines denote obscured passages.

The Canadian 'Metal Queen', but also so much more than that. Along with Manowar-esque heavy metal, Lee has lent her fantastic, chameleonic tone to projects ranging from glam metal and hard rock to post-grunge, blues and literally vocal jazz, and I am personally convinced she can do no wrong at this point. On the most random whim I decided to get into her music, and listening to her voice and what she can do with it has been one of the most rewarding musical experiences in a while.
