{One Octave or Less - Jack Black}
(1:45 - 3:40) JB and Jimmy Fallon's famous duet of the classic "More Than Words". Jack takes the tenor role, spanning Bb3 to Bb4 in this portion of the clip. He manages to keep things entertaining with the help of a great song and his usual vocal silliness.

{Two Octaves or More - Serj Tankian}
(1:29 - 2:19, 2:45 - 3:33) One of my favorite Tankian vocal performances. Starting off the clip is a nice duet verse with Serj singing in his mid range. The chorus shows off his G4s, which many would consider his money note. And I'll leave the best part as a surprise. Serj spans a dark F2 in the backing vocals to a C5, practically taking his chest voice to its limits.

Sorry for being late. Was too busy turning 21.

One Octave or Less: Trisha Paytas. 2:21 to end. She actually sounds quite nice here I think, ranges D4 - D5.


Two Octaves or More: The Monster. The whole damn thing. Yeah I was waiting to use this clip. It slaps pretty hard ngl. Ranges E♭3 - G5.
