not entirely in falsetto but fuck it.

the temptations were blessed, weren't they.

 

[discokermit]

not falsetto but i'll chuck it in anyway. jimmy scott's voice is partially a beautiful by product of kallmann syndrome,

There's quite a lot of falsetto singing in metal (heavy or not so heavy), but not usually entire songs. One singer who does it more than most is King Diamond:

There's also serious (as opposed to pop) music.

Castrati, boy sopranos and countertenors were often loved for the unreal quality of their voices. It seemed every moody televsion programme of the 1980s had a boy soprano theme tune

This is countertenor Andreas Scholl

Who, it is important to remember, is neither a boy soprano nor a castrato. He's a countertenor. A bloody good one

 

[Kaka Tim]

He's not singing in falsetto

true. but at least its not fucking Queen -

Always struggle to embed videos. I'm a massive loser.

If I could, I would post Canned Heat - on the road again.
