{Best Vocal Climax: Taylor Momsen - "Why'd You Bring a Shotgun to the Party?"}

1:29 - 3:18. Taylor builds up from angsty lows to catty screams in the first half and continues that climactic feeling until the last F♯5.

{Best Soft Singing: D'Angelo - "Me and Those Dreaming Eyes of Mine"}

2:04 - 3:50. This is D'Angelo's whole thing. Pretty versatile tones all in a pretty soft and sensual delivery. He does all the harmonies too.
