{Best Vocal Climax - Jerry Lee Lewis}2:20 to 3:47. Jerry flirts with the crowd a little bit, y'know, starts off all dopey and shit before getting into the wailing. Really good performance.

{Best Soft Singing - Bob Weir}0:53 to 2:23. I was gonna use Bobby Darin because he's a bit safer of a pick but this one is cooler. Actual use of dynamics whilst remaining nice and tender.

{Best Vocal Climax - So Chan-whee}2:58–4:29. BUILDUP. EAGLEVOIS. SLIDES. SUSTAINS. Yes. All the things. Girl you have done it again, constantly raising the bar for us all, and doing it flawlessly.

{Best Soft Singing - Carnie Wilson}1:18–3:20. Some cute and soft cooing with the gals. Carnie sings the lead vocal, as well as the low harmonies and some of the middle harmonies, spanning two octaves in the process. Of course after over twenty years of harmony she blends flawlessly with Wendy and Chynna. I especially appreciate how she subtly softens her sound in the lead approaching the end of the clip.
