That's still more than those kids could do.
 
That was painful.
 
I had no idea that is was possible for a teenage boy to sing that high. I think he skipped puberty.
 
The female presenter was hot though...
 
That passes as a song?

Haaaaaaaaaa-aaaaaaaaa-haaaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh...:rolleyes:
 
Now, this is singing

:biggrin:

She has a piccolo for a throat.

I'm not sure why people think the video in the first post has very high notes! It's just barely above the octave-and-a-half range in which a sorprano should be most comfortable. Most of those notes are in range of my falsetto... and I'm a baritone. :-p

I haven't heard too many male (adult) sopranos...or maybe even any! And I thought those that were, were usually castrati.

PS: Haven't watched the videos yet...still at work.

I have a range of about a half octave; all flats.

You just have to find a nice piece in Ab minor, then. :wink:

All that you need for a good rock tune are three notes anyway. :biggrin:

It wasn't just the higher notes that made the piece beautiful, it was the softness of tone , clarity, and the fact that they seemed to do it so effortlessly. Adult falsetto doesn't even come close in vocal quality.

To be heard above the sound of the background music an adult soprano would put out enough volume to blast the ears off of a jackrabbit.

Wow. I love the 2 clips in the middle. The girl surely has an amazing voice: strong, and moving. :cool: What's contest is it? America's Audition?

Love the last clip also. :!) Young children nowadays are so talented. Here's a clip from a super young Korean girl, who can play the piece "Recuerdos dela Alhambra", a tough piece for tremolo in guitar, pretty well. Click me.

The best version of it is Xuefei Yang's one.
