Where exactly do you hear the bold A6 in that link? Those tiny slides up in the choruses seem to me like they always land somewhere in the A5-C6 area at the most. And I wouldn't consider them bold notes.

[dankapple]

yeah I do hear them in the slides in the chorus, to me most of them are 6th-octave notes. and it's bolded because it's comparative to her performances, but we can consider that

[Electric Mami]

I hear the A6's as non-countable G♯6's, I gotta say. They're more squeaks than melodic and aimed notes to me. While she may have been aiming to squeak, I really don't think it justifies the range gap nor makes it controlled and part of her vocal range; it's about as questionable as Ado's B♭6's in “Chocolat Cadabra”, for a comparison

[dankapple]

well thanks for the feedback guys, i'll get to moving it to the spoilers and relinking the highest notes
