Yes Cissy worked and worked her until she knew every aspect of her voice inside out. Her training given by her mother was outstanding combined with her talent produced something spectacular.

@@Jdman5000 I agree 100%.

@@Sttephy30 Yes, she knew this. But Whitney was also very proud of her low notes. Her Arista 25 Years performance was more of a showcase of her low notes than anything.

The problem comes with the hit song I'm Every Woman. Those G5s arent as easy for her to access live as they were recorded. She always lipped the last one(s).

@@Sttephy30 It is. If I were her though, I would use that part in the bridge as an opportunity for maybe one of her background vocalists, preferably the soprano, to take it and demonstrate that she too is "every woman." Corny, I know, but given that she always sang that song to close out the show, I think that we as an audience would have had more patience for it than the blatant fraud of a lip sync...which she clearly didn't enjoy or was good at.

Yeah, I thought I was a Baritone for a long time because I couldn't breathe out G4s and A4s lol.

@@deyoncew3311 💀😭

@@deyoncew3311 On an even more weird situation, I used to thought I was a baritone with some issue since I couldn’t be hitting G#4-A4 with ease 🤡

I'm a baritone that could scream G5 days and days (in head voice) without any fatigue, for years ^^

A lot of people on the Internet think if you cannot sing a B4-C5 consistently, you are a baritone and not a tenor. Seriously, those notes are the extremes for most male tenors, and vocal classification is measured by their tessitura, not one's total range or the notes they can hit.

Same

As it should. It's a bop.

She tore this song up!! My favorite from her plus its from the movie "Blank Check" lol

Thank you for checking in. I have a few videos that are essentially done that, I'm wrapping up. Once they're up, I hope to return to consistently posting sooner rather than later!

I think it's gonna be an interview with her qs well...he taken a pic with her a month or so ago.

Her voice is interesting and nice! She sounds funky

Why did I thought you were talking about Taylor Swift? 🤦🏿‍♀️

@@TooOldForThis 🥴

@@TooOldForThis hell naww! Since you said it, I'm intrigued by what makes Taylor [Swift] sings that way (flat)

yeah, donna has the best tessitura range voice i dont know why she never included in this video about tessitura range its clearly this video about analyzed taylor dayne's range

She use her as an example it's not like he explained her entire life in this,he still explained how tessitura's work🤦

That’s what I was thinking. The Taylor Dayne example is her chest voice range. And it sounds like a mezzo soprano chest voice. She has at least 5 more notes in head voice or even mixed voice above that.

@@Vishnu6 Dayne's entire singing range is: D3-A5. Dayne's highest note in chest voice is A5. Her highest note in head voice is also an A5 as heard in, "Dance With A Stranger," which she reaches through a vibrato-less slide. A developed voice will have options on the same note. She can sing A5 in either her chest or head voice, but no matter what register she uses, A5 is her limit. A limit is a limit, and a change in registration will not change that.

@@BlackMusicArchive i was wondering about this. Thanks for explaining!

@@BlackMusicArchive The registration would only lead to less muscle overcharge (too much TA makes stress), but as a limit, always will be.

good question...

I wonder if Ms Patti Labelle has a video coming?

What about the men? Ray Charles Stevie Wonder maybe David Ruffin. Thank you.

If it sounds good and its easy to hit then yes

I would say yes. As you are at most comfortable in head voice.

@@danielng7795 You see, I would think so. So now returning to Taylor Dane: hitting that G5 in her mix voice may be a challenge, but in her falsetto it may have been easier- we'll never know...🤷🏽‍♂️ Do you now see why I am confused about this tessitura topic?

Tessitura includes all registers. Her range is D3-A5 period. She has an A5 in chest voice in, “There Is No Heart That Won’t Heal.” She has an A5 in head voice in, “Dance With A Stranger.” A developed voice will have options on the same note. She can and has sung the upper fourth of her range in both her head or chest voice, but the notes are all sang similarly through a run or a slide with no vibrato. Her limits are her limits, and singing in a different register will not change that. She’s going to feel pressed regardless because G5-A5 is the end of her range. I hope this helps.

@@BlackMusicArchive So what about (former) singers like me who had no vibrato no matter what part of their range or tessitura they're in? The ONLY time I had vibrato was SOMETIMES on mid-range notes, and it would only kick in right when I was 3 or to seconds from ending the note. I used get frustrated that I naturally didn't have vibrato & I would sometimes try to force it, but my voice teacher told me it could be damaging to my voice. It was very disheartening given she was trained in the opera houses in Turkey 🇹🇷, so she was the "REAL Deal," & being a professional opera singer 😲🎵🍷, she, of course, had vibrato for DAYZ!! I NATURALLY was born with a very STRONG, LOUD, RESONANT voice & COULD HOLD notes, especially my mid-range notes 🎶 for about 15 seconds b4 I started feeling like I might need a breath. I had the power of a gospel singer, but in my younger days kind of had a "straight" voice --- meaning it didn't have that gospel affectation, meaning, you really couldn't tell I was a black singer just by listening to me. It made me self-conscious growing up in a black church ⛪️, so I had to kind of add that element to my voice in the beginning. It was probably cuz I spent my formative years attending a predominantly whyte, private Christian ✝️ school. But that's a story for another day 🙄! Anyhow, given I had that "indistinguishable" voice originally, combined with the natiral power, you would think I would have naturally had or developed the vibrato in time, but it never came 🤷🏾‍♂️. By the time I was 17, I had worked my way up to having 5 octaves --- I know it sounds unbelievable, but it was true. I sat down at the piano 🎹 everyday for 5yrs. and went up the scale & practiced. Naturally, I has about 2/2 1/4 on a good day & just had to work for the other 3. I sang tenor in the choir, though I think by the end I was more of a counter tenor. My ultimate range was C below middle C 🎼, and roughly five octaves above that in chest, then started going into mix about the last fourth of my 3rd octave. My tessitura (though I didn't know what that was back then) was a lil' below middle C 🎼 and maybe 2.5/3 octaves above that. My head voice/falsetto was always 💩 😬🤦🏾‍♂️. I never learned how to growl either, which also made me feel incompetent as a black singer raised in the church ⛪️. Also, my voice teacher told me it would damage my voice so I never tried back then, & when I got older & wanted to, I never could. I said all that to say, is it normal for someone to have the voice I was born with NATURALLY, combined with the training I receive not to ever develop any vibrato?? Was there something I wasn't doing (or was and shouldn't have been doing in my technique) that could have caused me not 2 develop any vibrato? It's hard for me to understand the concept of vibrato indicating a voice is relaxed if it's constantly fluctuating pitch (if that's the correct term) to produce the vibrato. Perhaps, I pushed my range too far out of its tessitura trying to develop it b4 it was ready? Maybe it's just me & the way my voice is naturally designed. I always wanted a vibrato like Whitney, Tevin, or Stephanie Mills. Oh well 🤷🏾‍♂️!! My voice is a shadow of its former self now (and that's being kind). My voice started acting wonky the latter part of my senior year in high school 🏫 even though I took excellent care of my voice, and for the most part always did a day on of practicing for 2 or 3hours, then would rest a whole day in between. Well, as far as at home practice went. I still had to sing for maybe 15 or 20 minutes in chorus class ea. day, & if I had choir practice @ church, then I didn't practice at home that day. I don't know if it was some unknown medical issue like a thyroid issue or something but ever since then my voice became extremely temperamental. Someday it might come out decent & others I can barely get to the top of my second octave. My power is reduced to 25% less --- at least --- of what it used to be. So vibrato is TORALLY out-of-the-question now 🤦🏾‍♂️. I just infuriates me that singers like Aretha, Pink, Whitney, & many others smoked 🚬, or did drugs or drank a lot & still for the most part their voices suffered negligibly OR it took years for the damage to become evident, & I lost everything I worked for with mine in less than a year after getting my full range & I took care of my voice like it was my "baby 👶🏿." Such is life 🤷🏾‍♂️.

Exactly... She really has a hard time with that note

Are you trying to call Patti a Baboon with that “Lupone” comment?

@BMW Jourdan Dunn Goddess! This is the most American comment I've ever seen in my life. Ma'am, there are 2 different Pattis in this video, Patti Labelle (the first clip in the video) and Patti LuPone, the woman singing in what looks like a musical towards the end of the video.

Just listened to it and its a bop. She sustained that note for her life

Thanks for the introduction to that song

@Sophisitcated 1 Glad U "met" the song's acquaintance ☺️! All I got to say is the clubs betta be glad I wasn't up in them when it came out cuz my 2 left 🦶🏾 non-able 2 dance 🕺🏾🎶 a$$ would've have tore everything UP 👏🏾 in there & shut it DOWN 👇🏾 !!

@@dominiquedevereux7205 😂😂😂😂😂😂 ikr!!! Period!!! I know you woulda been on it in them clubs. It seemed like we missed out on the golden era our parents experienced in the 80s and 90s.

@Sophisitcated 1 Oh. I didn't miss out, Honey . . . I AM an 80s baby 👶🏾!! They just never played this sonf in the clubs I went to. The album this came out on was released in '99. I saw Taylor live when she came to a town near where I live to promote it. Though she didn't sing this sing. She mostly sung her old hits. The only song I remember her performing off this album --- titled "Naked Without You" --- was "Unstoppable." But the whole album was good. It was very eclectic--- had some alternative, R&B, dinner club torch songs 🎵 & of course House songs like "Whatever You Want Remix." The original version is also on the album. Fun fact: Taylor wrote "Whatever You Want" & Tina Turner 💃🏾 recorded & released it 1st. Taylor re-recorded it herself dor this album & sounds basically like Tina's. Or I shoukd say Tina's sounds like Taylors since I'm sure she based her version of Taylor's demo. Then Taylor has the remix at the end of her album. Here's Tina's version 👇🏾. I LOVE the choreography. One of the dancers looks like she could be Tina's daughter 🤯!! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rpqSnK-Vubaqo5c.html

**BLACK music archives

Taylor isn’t black, so this question stands.

I think that he will, but it´s take a lot of time and effort.

Tessitura is individual to the singer, and there are different tessituras within a singular voice type.

@@BlackMusicArchive Sure but a soprano tessitura will be different than that of a contralto (for example)

see where your range is in 10 years and you'll get an approximate gauge as where your adult range will be. then again range changes throughout a persons life but by then you should see where youll be heading.

But it's sometimes "Fun" tho HAHAHHA for like example the lowest note of a song is a G3 i can sing it in a G2 so it's like transposing it 1 octave lower and the highest note is a Eb5 i can hit it with an Eb4 you get the point but yes it does exactly sound boring and low and not so "Impressive" when hitting those notes.

And i do have a not so reliable falsetto i do sound like a girl when using it actually but a lot of air is released and my voice is very agile when using it but it cuts off when i go up higher so there's no really good at that

I do have some operatic voice and my vibrato really sounds good because I'm shouting C5 above but with that thin operatic notes above

Of course your voice was determined by your tessitura most idiot delusional stan will not take this into their account.for them if a singer sound light and thin even if they struggle and tense above E5 then they are soprano.which is something funny and doesn't make sense

​@@justinbraylock757 she is not

Agreed

Same. But it´s a shame that the music got written in her vocal range extremes. The dynamism of chorus is a perfect fourth leap, in the moddification would be a sixth leap to E5 or a fifth for the F5, to recreate the dynamism.
