Thanks!

So I was a whole tone under the original note...but it's not that bad...

That's probably a good thing. If you had stretched your way up just to hit the pitch, it would've likely sounded strained and weak. I can barely get any of my G#s to sound strong, and there not in the same stratosphere as Barlow's

Anyway

At 2:30, the top note of the phrase? Then the top notes in the following phrase? And the first phrase repeated at 3:07?

There's no way I'll ever be able to pitch anything like that...but it was amazing! :shock:

Thanks for the comment, I'm pretty satisfied if can make my wails sound good up to F#5! It did sound good, right? :lol:

How low does the part at 3:14 go? Doesn't sound like George Michael but he is portrayed singing it and the albu mcredits have nobody else in the song singing it. :freak:

This is from my favourite female singer, Katie Noonan. Just wondering what's the high note held for about 10 seconds starting from roughly 2:40 here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdqhy2sDL5w

Cheers :cheers:

Finally found the song where Thom Yorke is supposed to hit an F#6:

I think it's somewhere after the 3 minute mark.

Try this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HeTUP6Rb8ww

2:28 is the point where low passage starts: he slides to brief lows at some point, any idea what they are?

Edit: Ok, it's George, he does it live too:

Sir, is this correct? I kinda thought she may be singing it a bit lower, but I can't figure out the harmonies.

Starting at 4:50 there is some background mixed voice belting. What's the highest note there?
