Honey made a very clear point.
It is total fallacy for any singer's PR (not just Mariah's)
to claim having an 8 octave vocal range..... that is total horse shit!
I don't know how exact honey's details are but the specifics vary from website to website. Articles say different things too.
The lowest possible note Mariah could hit is a C3 or a B2. Check out the lowest note in My All, and Your So Cold.
The Highest note Mariah hits in full Voice is a C6. Refer to Loverboy (the highest "I-ay" enjoy!) and My Saving Grace (when she Pulls "I" found my saving grace) up. In unreleased records, she hits the c6 in Outside (Butteryfly album)
Only one singer is recognized to hit higher than that... Patti La Belle was said to be able to hit a D6 in full voice.
Regine can hit a C6 too. that is her highest too. Her live rendition of I Have Nothing hits that same level of vocal height when she pulled the word "arms" (stay in my arms if you dare) to c6. whitney cant reach that. She can hit B5 the highest in full voice.
The difference now is Mariah's ability to use the borrowed notes.... or what we popularly know as the whistle register. Mariah may have hit live a G7 not a sharp though..... Rick Dees even mistakenly noted that Mariah hit a B7 in Someday.
Mariah definitely can go a fet or half higher than an F7.
And I saw in an article by boy abunda... that Lani reached an F7# in loving you.... I beg to disagree though.... I feel it falls flat of that note..... and I wouldn't believe that she can hit those notes in Emotions.
Just a thought.
