High Notes (Don't have glass around)
Posted: 2008-01-19 02:50pm
Found this clip of the woman with the largest vocal range on the planet, and who has reached the highest note for a human voice ever.

My question is, what the hell is the point of displaying this kind of range when A) it is never called for in music and B) even if it was, the singer would normally need to use syllables instead of simply shrieking as she appears to be doing in the clip? I mean, great, she has the range, but is there any real use for it?
EDIT: At least Tim Storms can articulate syllables in his extreme low range (to great effect): http://youtube.com/watch?v=LFbjtmubBFQ
