Don't know if anyone has ever done this before, but here's a video I found of Chris's vocal range. This person basically put his low and high notes in order. I thought it was interesting.

I'm particularly fond of his low register... :wacky:

Nice video!!

Very interesting!

Nice video. Should have put the line from Proof where he goes really high though!

Love it! What is the name of the song at 5:30? Thanks!

Rainy Day

It's quite amazing! :D

 

I wish I know music. haha

Amazing! :D

Interesting! thanks a lot :nice:

I can't see the video (at work) but I've always thought Chris has a very versatile voice--he can sing anything, in my opinion.

Wow.. how time consuming must that have been. So interesting though. :D

Really interesting video!

 

Except for the fact the Rainy Day sample is not Chris' vocals :D

Awesome job! :stunned: :nice:

 

 

...I just love his voice in its entirety :heart:

Really interesting video!

I was just about to post this, well done. You get a cyber cookie! :thumbsup:

Awesome job! :stunned: :nice:

Nice video! His voice sounds so good in every key. :kiss:

Hi guys, I'm the maker of this video :P thanks for all the nice comments!

 

Really interesting video!

Actually I concluded that, after listening to it several times, it is Chris's vocals blended with Emily Bart-Smith's. But I could be wrong, please, feel free to correct me if I am, haha.

 

I'd also like to add - I did leave out a few notable songs because I suck. There is another E5 in Lovers In Japan (Osaka Sun Mix) in the "whoooooo"s after the first chorus, and there are some really low notes in Christmas Lights. I forgot to put LIJ in, and I didn't include CL because I had a lot of trouble figure out just what note it was. I read that it was an E2 on another site, and if that's true, that's his lowest note to date -- but as I'm a girl (and a mezzo soprano) I can't go anywhere near that low.

 

ed - the high note in Proof is a B4 I believe, so it was high enough to make it into the video but I already had three examples of a B4 that he's sung and I tried not to exceed three because I thought people might get bored, lol.

^Oh hi! :)

Don't worry about things you forgot, the video is great!

 

It seems like Chris has a pretty big range, but I don't know much about singing theory. Is three octaves a lot for a singer?

Hi! And thank you, I really appreciate that.

 

Yes, I would say that he does have a big range. While there are some crazy 5-octave-range singers out there, 3 octaves is very impressive -- but it's really not the range that matters as much as the singing itself.

Also, technically he's got a two octave, two note range because unfortunately, most people don't count falsetto as being actually part of a singer's range -- that's why the (-G5) is in parentheses.

I still think it's great. He's got three usable octaves that he can sing in, doesn't matter whether it's falsetto or not. Good falsetto is more important than crappy full voice, and he's good with both!

Very interesting, I've been trying to figure out Chris' range for a while now :P Thank you very much for posting this (and thank you, Majorsminus, for creating it!)

Great video, thanks

That's great. I'm so impressed :) Thank you..

Nifty

Ah I see, thanks for clearing that up. I agree.

Very interesting stuff. Also thanks for the explanations, I think I've learned something today :D

Interesting indeed!
