{Questionable Notes}
D5 ("Stripling" Unknown Live PerformanceLive2, 4)
C♯5 ("The City in the Sea" Live Hong Kong 20114)
[1] marks yelps and short trills in high range or anacrusis and short dips in low range.
[2] marks notes of questionable identity that cannot be confirmed to be the singer in question.
[3] marks non-melodic notes that don't have a significant enough pitch to warrant inclusion.
[4] marks notes that possess uncertain pitch or have been pitch-shifted.
[5] marks notes that do not fit the previous criteria but are not of a substantial enough quality to warrant counting towards the singer's range.
Both screams are hard to pitch due their qualities (overtones and unclear fundamentals). Both Loïc and Louis Jucker scream at the same time (albeit in different pitches) in "Stripling", making it difficult to tell them apart
