Kelly Clarkson Vocal Range (Studio Vs. Live)

[ryan0549]

Can we have a Kelly and Christina duet now please?!?!

[officialstephengarza]

@ryan0549 I know, that would be epic!

[xelfect]

what's that song when she hit f#6? can anybody tell me please

[Fabiuguz]

@xelfect Natural Woman @ American Idol

[ViolaXZ]

Kelly is amazing singer with strong vocal and very touching songs plus she doesn't scream like Aguilera or Beyonce. She sings

[Fabiuguz]

@ursus15g a woman range is obviously wide, so i'm sure she can go higher... and MAYBE also lower

[ZacGladiator]

don't forget about song called "Cry"

there is i thing the highest sound that i heard!

[BladeAndSoul]

You cant fucking say what her octave is when she hasnt even prooven how high or low she can go.

She belted a C6 and tons of low notes on all i ever wanted as well so sorry her octave isnt 3.1 it may be way higher than you think.

You cant fucking decide until she has prooven it completely. Until she dies you can decide it.

[aboo00oode992]

she hit a C6 earlier this year .

she is the first and best american idol EVER !!

[UnleashTheVoice]

@aboo00oode992

she has never belted an C6.....im sorry...

but she strains on A5 how can you expect her to sustain a C6 ???

she is awesome nonetheless

[aboo00oode992]

@UnleashTheVoice she did and you can find it here in youtube !!

[UnleashTheVoice]

@aboo00oode992

really!! where???

[aboo00oode992]

@UnleashTheVoice just post kelly clarkson hit C6 or something like this

[UnleashTheVoice]

@aboo00oode992

yea i searched it and it was only a C5 im sorry but its the guitar at the C6... its really obvious...

[aboo00oode992]

@UnleashTheVoice  well i dont think so .

anyway , kelly is the best :)

[brianlongrox]

@UnleashTheVoice

What!!? thats the stupidest thing I ever heard haha

[happyactor6]

@UnleashTheVoice it is actually a C6. It's really in tune so the vibration encompasses the C5 as well. If you listen to Renee Fleming's Dis Moi Que Je Suis Belle, there are similar moments when you hear the high note as well as it's lower octave buddy.

[americanidolfan55]

@happyactor6 look at her facial expression though, compare it to the last note in other performances of home. also, the c6 ends right when she ends her note, but the guitar still goes.  all signs point to it being her.

[BrickByBoringBrick7]

wow! she is amazing1 i think she is better live than in the studio and thats really rare. but all my idols are like that (kelly clarkson, demi lovato, and hayley williams of paramore)!

[lalahahajkjklol]

She hits an F#3 in All I Ever Wanted on "Save You"

[Fabiuguz]

@lalahahajkjklol she hit Eb3 Harmonized in the chorus

[teamcalz]

yeah. she has a 3.1 octave not 2.

[BishoujoShoutan]

Kellys octave range is higher then 3.1 :/

[CFNumeroUno]

3.1 is very good, though. They say anything above 2 is fantastic.

[bavery00]

no she dont she can sing more than 3.1 octaves

[classicalgal14]

She has a 3.1 octave this is stupid!

[markjowell72]

still the best

[agators212]

kelly clarkson sang a C6 recently at the end of a performance of "home" mardi gras in florida. its hard to hear on a lot of the video because the audience goes wild but there is one video where you can hear the note and she actually adds vabrato. she never stops to amaze me

[raphee13]

how many octave range kelly has now?

[agators212]

she still has shown F#6 to be her highest note. i believe she could probably go higher but just unwilling to try because thats not her. she's not going to act like mariah when she's found her own style of singing. so we will never really know what her true vocal range is. so she can still be labelled as having 3.1 octaves.

[BladeAndSoul]

when you go above 5 it's gona be dangerous for your voice it's a risk if you keep whistling to much like that. kelly only done it like 3 times i hope she stops now :/. She done e6 c6 and F#6 woop.

Kelly is amazing she could go 7 to but it would ruin her voice just like everyone elses. It's really bad for your voice to go above 5 even 5 is bad but not that bad.

KELLY STOP IT NOW I WANT YOU're beautiful voice to stay.

Oh and her voice is dark in my december because she's singing with.

[highnote32]

She sung in the Mezzo-Soprano territory there. She was a Soprano. She sung classically when she was younger also.

[highnote32]

Kelly's voice has gotten a little darker. Listen to her stuff on her new album.

[BladeAndSoul]

she sings with emotion that's why and her voice is still amazing you should hear her sing because of you today.

[ktluvaxx]

I happen to think that "My December" is a lot darker than "All I Ever Wanted"

[gchunni]

When did she hit that A5? I want to hear the whole song

[dearstrangers]

She. Is. So. TALENTED! How come no one notices it?!

[xxmodernloverxx]

i hate when people complain about kelly clarkson when she does have talent.

and if you didn't want her to win..then why didn't you vote? i mean american decided, and they picked kelly clarkson.

people are seriously..just dumb.

i don't know how else to put it.

i love you kelly <3 :D

[KellyFan4Lyfe08]

your a moron kellys got 3.1 octaves so get it right dipshit rangevocal knows what he/she is talking about,noone gives a shit about christina this isnt her video

[felinou310]

Christina C3-C#7 51 notes 4,5 octaves

long note 20 secondes

voix alto and spinto soprano

kelly E3-F#6 15 notes 3 octaves

long note 7 secondes !!!

voix spinto sorpano

[9musiclover9]

Kelly rules

[highnote32]

Kelly Clarkson is definitely not a Mezzo.

[Radioslmfao]

Isn't Kelly a Spinto? shes got the same range and tone as Mary J Blige.

[lalahahajkjklol]

Question. Is this a Leona vs. Kelly video? No. I didn't think so. Why Are we bringing up Leona? If you want to debate who is better then make a Kelly vs. Leona video to debate, but don't debate here. This is KELLY CLARKSON! Who is freaking fantastic, by the way. Haha, thanks for makin' this vid!

[chasechunt]

actually it now sounds like an old Miss Independent

[chasechunt]

so does anyone know what performance the A5 was from?? It sounds like a Trouble With Love Is.. but i wanna hear the whole thing..

[musiclover872008]

hell yea she could still do it,shes better now then she was back then,shes always been amazing

[lolurfunny10]

i wonder if she could still do the f#6 today?

[elu24991]

i hope she still can

[shelby55]

i was 10 when she was on idol and i remeber hearing the f#6 note and i started laughing cuz i thought she was screaming and my mom was like, are you okay?

haha

[diddypiddy44]

omg thats so weird! haha SAME HERE! i was laughing histerically. that was damn hell.

[calvin999999999]

also, wouldnt live

cos if:

E3-E6 = 3 octaves

E3-F6 = 3 octaves, 1 note

E3-F#6= 3 ocatves and a half note/semitone?

[calvin999999999]

hey if it is G3-G#5 wouldnt that be 2 octaves and a semitone/half note? as G3-G5 iwould be exactly 2 octaves.

[calvin999999999]

does kelly have a falsetto/whistle register of say B5/Bb5 and above studio?

[highnote32]

Kelly ios Not a Mezzo!!!!!!

[jokc7179]

In her Pope performance of Ave Maria , she hits some notes at the end , can someone tell me how high they are ..?

[jwobble44]

there not as high as natural woman as some say.

[abcsweet]

Leona clearly has more range than kelly. kelly is still a good singer i wasn't impressed by this because they are both of the same vocal classification and leona can sing lower just as high and everything inbetween that kelly so far hasn't done. on top of that leona is much easier on the eyes.

[jwobble44]

i agree totally

[KCfan3]

wow kelly can really belt out things! GO KELLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that whistle note was hot lol. anyways everybody stop hating kelly. her vocals are unique! unlike mariah carey and leona. they both sound the same in my opinion.

[saxysaxist]

Yeah, I think Leona is a huge Mariah- wannabe. Their tone is so similar it's kind of freaky.

[diddypiddy44]

And if you're comparing leona lewis to mariah carey as a bad thing... you obviously have no musical background from the last 20 years.

[saxysaxist]

Leona should quit trying to be other artists. We already have a Mariah Carey and we have no need for a Mariah-wannabe.

The day I hear Leona hit whistle notes in the end of multiple songs, is the day I will cease to respect her existence.

[calvin999999999]

omg she cant help how she sings! leona is leona, mariah is mariah

[jaymejean28]

Leona is too whiney. Plus all she can sing are ballads.

[calvin999999999]

wot about all the falsetto notes and other whistle notes below F#6??? exactly there arent any, it doesnt make her have 3.1 octaves cos she can hit that note (even tho it was completly off) cos there are no notes in between

[calvin999999999]

that A5 was soooo strained!!!!!

mariah's sounds amazing

[kellyclarksonfankc]

i thought that every note of that was freakinn'' awesome.!!!!

especially the whistle.!!

[calvin999999999]

that "whislte" was shit.

leona's F#6 is falsetto and she has complete control

[kellyclarksonfankc]

Lets just remember who won American Idol

"THE FIRST SERIES"

KELLY FREAKINN''CLARKSON .!

so... idk.. maybe we are all crazy in thinkin that the WHISTLE was great... or maybe we could look at the fewer people who think it was bad..... i'm sorry.. but i think that you would get over ruled here.!!

we dorks know good music..

and this dude... IS IT XD XD =] =] =]

[calvin999999999]

WELL, THE FACT THAT SIMON COWELL SAID TO LEONA LEWIS ON THE X FACTOR THAT LEONA IS THE BEST VOCALIST AND SINGER ACROSS ANY SINGING CONTEST FROM POP IDOL, AMERICAN IDOL, X FACTOR ETC. THAT HE HAS EVER SEEN, I THINK OVERRULES YOU!

this is it....DUDE!

[kellyclarksonfankc]

Well...

i think that now that Simon Cowell has no control over getting Kelly Clarkson's money,

whereas Leona lewis is his freshest money bag out right no.. and by the next AI or x-factor, you will be hearing the same old commenst like "your the best I've ever seen on this show" and stuff like that.. he is just in it for the money.. and i like Leona too, shes great but i still like Kelly Clarkson more and she has great pipes, and she uses them well.. so lets just see who agrees DUDE.!!!

KC*=<3

[calvin999999999]

simon cowell doesnt overal like a lot of the contestents on x factor, but i do agree with him, leona is the best to come out of a singing contest, she really uses her falsetto and belting well with hr8 control

[ninfan92]

And yet he still praises Kelly Clarkson in every interview with every chance he gets? He praised her again back in about April or so and called her the best thing to come out of AI, not just because of her talent because she proved that the winner could be successful.

Vocally, I can't pretend I know Leona's limits, but I think Kelly's versatility makes her the better vocalist. Kelly can sing ANY genre she wants and make it sound like its her own. She's sung pop, pop/rock, country, soul, etc.

[calvin999999999]

i agree kelly is probs the best to come out of American Idol, even though i really like Jordin Sparks, but Leona Lewis tops anyone that has ever been produced from basically a singing compitition, she is vocally better than kelly clarkson, alicia keys and jojo, and celine dion in terms of vocal range.

[repentyourselff]

leona is better than alicia and jojo, but no where near celine.

she is also not as good as kelly, VOCALLY.

if you really don't like kelly why do you keep watching her videos?

[calvin999999999]

leona is, in terms of vocal range i said, better than celine, only by 1 note. and kelly also, in terms of vocal range, again only by one note, but leona is capable of a lot more.

i do like kelly!!!!! lol

[repentyourselff]

ok, i'm glad that we've settled our kind of old fight, but i just have to bring this up.

leona can go only a half note lower than kelly, but kelly can go 1 note higher than leona in belting, and has gone a note and a half higher in whistle.

if you don't believe me watch rangevocal's leona's range video.

sorry, haha i just had to get that out.

[calvin999999999]

well, me and him have the same notes so....

Leona:

Studio: D3-F#6 = 3 octaves, 2 notes and a semitone.

Live: D3-E6 = 3 octaves, 1 note

Kelly:

Studio: G3-G#5 = 2 octaves and a semitone

Live: E3-F#6 = 3 octaves, 1 note and a semitone.

leona can go lower, but can do the same whistle note.

[repentyourselff]

but that F#6 is in studio, it's nothing if you can't do it live.

[Radioslmfao]

Kelly can go a note and a half above Leona in belting, She's betled Bb5.

[repentyourselff]

yeah, i don't think i knew about that when i posted that comment.

[calvin999999999]

Half a not below a Bb5 is A5, Leona's highest G#5.

[Radioslmfao]

Dude i already knew that -.- Kellys highest is Bb5 and Leonas is G#5 and I said Kelly get go higher than leona in belting by a note (my mistake note a note and a half) stop pointing out things that I know already.

[calvin999999999]

as you got it wrong i thought you didnt know, if u didnt make mistakes first time then i would of had to correct you.

[lucasode]

leona is bettter singer then her and look how much suces leona is haveing  she is taking ovr kelly

[bro0klyn0riginal]

taking over ha that funnys, its because kelly wasnt in the spot light during leonas shine, kelly was on tour , kellys new album is the most talked about album yet, there calling it breakaway on steroids, so u will all see wat happens wen kellys back in the game...and ryan tedder himself who worked with lenoa said kellys new stuff is better then anything hes ever done even bleeding love

[lucasode]

who gives man kelly is shit ok i have  not even herd her since idol also leona is way better and can sing and most probal will take over kellys sales kelly is old and shit

[bro0klyn0riginal]

lmao are u serious , havnt heard of her since idol, shes sold 20 million albums so far, her 4th album is coming out, she was just on tour with reba which one the most sucessful tour of the year, she won another ascap award for her writting. and i can go on and on, for someone who made leona sucessful with the song bleeding love to admit that kellys new album will be better then obvioulsy leona isnt going to tke over kelly

[bro0klyn0riginal]

and im hoping ur tlking about wen she performed on idol because if your tlking about wen she won then ur are out of it, get ready march "breakaway on steroids", also everyone watch out for kellys new single my life would suck(without you) hitting airwves this january said to be bigger then bleeding love, and since u been gone.

[lucasode]

hey dick fuck how the hell can u no is going to be biggen the someything thats all ready been relesed dich fuck kelly is a fat mole that cant shing ok what you make me feel like a woman you think that s vocalish that screaming if u want vocla u want fame u want big u want sale u want every thing talk abiout celine dion she the best

[bro0klyn0riginal]

listen dont bring celine dion in this cause i hve nthing against her she is an amazing aritst, now see i hve serious problems with people like you cause this is a video about kelly and only kelly so obviously when u come to a video and make childsish remarks bout lenoa being better when this video has nothing to do with her im gunna say something and , there is no way u can say that kelly cant sing cause then obviously ur tone deaf,

[bro0klyn0riginal]

20 million sales, 2 grammys, most downloaded songs, multiple #1, 4 ascap awards, many mtv, vh1, 11 top billboard awards,... so if u wanna say lenoa better then someone or that and artist cant sing go with rhianna , or miley cyrus but leave the miss idepenedebnt herself alone, cause theirs no denying her talent

[lucasode]

well celine dion is the b3est seeeling femal artist selling over 220 million albums 6 grammy millions of awards like 1.700 awards

[bro0klyn0riginal]

well she has noothing to do with this ,

[lucasode]

welll leona is a better singwer then her buy mile kelly cant sing no where near as good as leona thats it

[bro0klyn0riginal]

u are truley dilusional, kelly won a competetion based on singing, how r u gunna say she cant sing, please maybe u hvnt watched her peformences, up to the mountain, ave maria, all her singles

her tours are amazing she is a true singer im done arguing my case because i kno im right kelly is true talent , while the man leona isnt shes a good singer but kelly is deff a true and unique talent

[IllegalAlien]

They both won competitions based on singing.

However, I do think when it comes to versatility, power, and singing/songwriting, kelly takes the cake hands down. They are both great talents, it just comes down to preference. And I prefer kelly.

[loveukelly024]

@IllegalAlien..i agree w/ you i prefer kelly...she is the best for me

[purljam1]

omg that whistle was bad u have to admit.

[RangeVocal]

bad? bad where? she hitt a F#6 easily and clearly in a autentic whistle register. where's bad?

[ipw9njames]

wtf. it was horrible?!? it was screechy and she nearly cracked and she had to slide up to it. she still an amazing singer even if she cant whistle that good.

[RangeVocal]

nearly cracked? can't whistle? ohh, seriously, u need new ears.

[ipw9njames]

no seriously you need new ears. you obv really like kelly and want every1 to like her too but that whistle was defo not good.

[RangeVocal]

I'm not a kid. If u don't like her, great. That's ur opinion. But that's MY opinion. That's a great whistle.

[ipw9njames]

this is pathetic. i do like kelly but she still cant whistle. but enyway i think we shud agree to disagree. ok?? :)

[calvin999999999]

listen to xxForeverLambsxx mariah voceal range vid, and listen to her whistles, now they are what u called great

kelly only has 2 octaves, mariah has 5

[kellyclarksonfankc]

YUP...

i gotta agree with you...

gotta <3 that whistle..

dnt know anybody else who could pull that one off..

- - -

KC* = <3

[calvin999999999]

i tell ya who can do it so much better:

leona lewis ( so much better than kelly)

mariah carey (the best)

whitney houston

christina aquilera

and thats it in present day

[calvin999999999]

i agree, it was pretty bad, not even a whistle i have to say. leona's F#6 is falsetto, and that is amazing. they are 4/5 notes which are both falsetto and whistle, depending on which gradient if note it is.

she has only 2.0 octaves, so i boubt she could whistle, maybe just about falsetto.

leona has 3.2 live and falsettos great.

[RangeVocal]

pretty bad? haha, new ears to you too. Do better then. And she has 3.1 octaves, not 2.

[calvin999999999]

haha, on ur "Leona Lewis Vocal Range (Studio Vs. Live)" it says that studio is 3.2 and live is 3, ON A VID THAT U MADE, so correction haa.

sorry but yes kelly can sing and 2 octaves is better thatn most singers 1/2 or 1 octave, but leona, x-tina, beyonce, mariah are SO much better, they have not crumbled apart.

[RangeVocal]

U said Kelly has 2.0 octaves, and I correction, sayin she has 3.1, u know to read?

[calvin999999999]

yes kelly has two octaves, that what it says at the end of this vid, made by you.

also, the leona studio vs live vid, that u also made, it says studio is 3.2, not 3.1 and live is 3.0

[RangeVocal]

In STUDIO, live she has 3.1

I'm talking about Kelly, where you read i'm talking about leona? You NEED to learn how to read.

[calvin999999999]

i know, but u were the one that said about leona having 3.1, BUT ON THE VID IT SAYS 3.2!!!!!!!!! LOL

[9musiclover9]

She sounds great live

[roxminie]

so what? i dont care

[Drich18]

Ok, I don't know about vocal notes. So, is A5 higher than G5, and if not, how much lower is it then G5?

[grondalicious]

A5 is one note above G5 :)

[Drich18]

ok, thank u.

[jokc7179]

When did she sing that A5 at 00:37 ?

[Maryara87]

There's nothing wrong with her F#6, really, I do like it, and don't think is flat. For me the A5 really, really sound head voice, but, you know, it's my imporession, no one needs to kill me for that.

[repentyourselff]

this voodoo guy needs to STFU

he acts like the high notes he's heard are the only ones she's ever hit

she has hit F#5 & above way over 100 times in tours and everything

watch 'trouble with love is live' on seacrest if you're so skeptical of her A5

thanks!

[pietersite26]

he is like a plague...he is everywhere...such a weeping fungus...he hates Celine,kelly,Mariah,Jojo,Fergi­e,Christina,etcetcetcetcetc...­he think Carrie is the greatest singer in the world...and he s a Whitney fan to...at least he likes Whitney...

[ilovekelly75]

I thought she hit a lower note in addicted.

[RangeVocal]

All the notes in JWAWC sucked?! Are u crazy? Anyway, talk alone, coz after that, honestly...

[voodooman123]

No I said BESIDES JWAWC.

[RangeVocal]

No, the A5 is in Full Voice, her voice break in the end of the note. Kelly is not a mid range singer, she hitt F, F# and G all the time in Full and Mix Voice. And her F#6 is impressive yes! She hitt very easily, with sure, she can hitt C7 and maybe above.

[voodooman123]

Yea I know about the A5 I don't think it was a belted and it sounded scratchy, almost like a yell. I would love to see these F and G5 live because the ones I've heard were all pretty much yells as you could hear her crack when she attempted to add vibratto which shows no control=not notes in her range. Her vh1 BTHE F#5 was the only one I heard sustained and again, that was hv as she you could hear her break chest resonance and slid into it.

[RangeVocal]

Hm... Watch all the performance of Breakaway, she ever hitt a F5. After her performance of Never Again in American Idol 6, she ever hitt F#5 with vibrato. In Jesus What a Wonderful Child she hitt a G sustained with vibrato, and much more.

[voodooman123]

All the ones beside JWAWC sucked. That G5 in JWAWC was in head voice. It had the same intensity as her vh1 F#5 in BTHE and THAT was clearly hv. If you don't believe me compare it to ANY LIVE C r D5 by her and you'll HEAR the difference between them.

[SurferBoy8708]

voodooman just the hell up your such a dumbass,actually the f6 was AMAZING LIKE IT OR NOT,your just jealous because your a carrie fan and well she just cant do that hahaha,kelly is AMAZING,yea mimi might sound better in the studio but kelly doesnt,kelly always takes it up a notch when she sings it live,unlike carrie,stop hatin and get over it kelly rules and ur just a loser kid :)

[voodooman123]

That F6 is flat and whistles aren't really impessive unless you can really do them like Mimi. She sounds alot better in the studio and that A5 didn't sound like a mixed belt, more in head vocie and it was kinda scratchy, almost a yelp. She's kinda like Christina where her middle C/D5 are her best belts.

[CareemBrownMusic]

Yeah, she actually hit another A5 on the 'Ryan Seacrest show' during a performance of 'The Trouble with Love is' she hits it like 4 times LOL where did you get this A5 from? I love your videos by the way :)

[drxclassic]

LIVE LIVE LIVE. unless, it's an uptempo dance song, which she has like none.

[ilovekelly75]

Miss Independent? Since You Been Gone? Walk Away? Those are just the singles that are uptempo.

[drxclassic]

ok, I forgot about those. But yeah, they sound better live to me. I really like walk away.

[mellowboy]

I'm not like a die hard Kelly fan, I'm leaning more towards Carrie, but the girl can really sing. And when she's on vocally, she's on.

[1991keith]

are u sayign she has a 3 octave range??? im sure its much larger mabye 3.6 or more

[shacks30]

When her lowest note is E3 and her highest is F#6 then yes her Vocal range is 3 Octaves and 1 Note so what´s wrong with that?

It´s a pretty good range especially to hit above sopranos C that is impressive!

Oh and to hit a A5 in chest voice live is bloddy awesome.I doubt Xtina or Beyonce can do that live!

btw.Thanx for the video!
