You do realise those terms do not apply for pop singers right? And especially not singers like Michael.

[sophiam122]

Yep.

He was just a lower light tenor or a smaller lyric tenor.

He’s also a bigger Tenore Lirico-Leggero or a smaller Tenore Lirico. But he modified his voice a lot. Just not singing classical music and not being a Opera singer

[kaji]

You just translated these terms into English now lol. They still don't apply for pop singers. Especially pop singers like Michael. If he was trained classically or used his voice in any way even resembling classical it'd be more realistic.

Ok you can stop now

[sophiam122]

His passaggi were D4 and G4.

[kaji]

If you truly knew what these terms meant you wouldn't be posting them under a Michael Jackson thread lol. This isn't the place for it regardless. This is a vocal range noting forum. Not a 'classify this singer's voice type' forum.

[sophiam122]

I mean His average passaggio was D4 and G4, but passaggio aren’t set in stone.

Ok but like, it doesn’t matter

[sophiam122]

Ok, I agree with you guys.

Naturally his voice was a smaller lyric voice. He was overbrightening.

kaji is pretty much spot-on here in my opinion, but I also want to ask that you please stop posting multiple times in a row over the course of a few minutes. It clogs up the discussion. Just edit your original post to include what else you have to say.

[sophiam122]

I’m trying to write new information.

[BAZanine]

Yes, new information that you can add to your already existent, already very recent post by clicking 'Edit'.

[sophiam122]

Can you add Thriller 40 material to the vocal analysis?

Vote to remove the repetitions found within this comment chain plus my own comment calling for it? 

[sophiam122]

Michael Jackson was a middle to high tenor. His real passaggi were D4 and G4. His singing was amazing!

Can you add the previously unreleased songs from Thriller 40 to his vocal profile?

[BAZanine]

Once again, please stop posting multiple times in a row over the course of a couple minutes.

Stop doing that and I'll  post new material.

I got it. OK

[BAZanine]

I don't think you do considering I just had to merge two series of double-posts. Just edit your original post with what else you want to say.

Why are you so obsessed with voice types?

Because I want to learn about them. Voice types are based on biology, not techniques.

There's nothing wrong with being interested in voice types, but just going into threads and announcing what you perceive to be a singer's passagi isn't particularly conducive to a productive discourse about the singer. Not to mention that you're being especially inflammatory with all the double-posts I've had to merge.

I'm finally agree with you that I have to add something else!

Anyway…

I feel like the A4 section could probably be removed. A4 isn’t terribly high for him and the section itself is surprisingly small.
