David Cook Vocal Range (F#2 - Eb5) NEW!

David Cook's Vocal Range. From F#2 to Eb5.

(I made this video on Sony Vegas 8.0)

According to Idolranges.com, Dave's lowest note was A2 which is from the song "Music of the Night" and his highest note was C#5 which is from their Group Performance of the Christian Song "Shout to the Lord" -- but those note information are only for the American Idol Performances.

From the American Idol 7 Summer Tour (2008), We found a note higher than C#5, which is D5 from his performance of "I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing". Although he sang it during AI Season 7, he didn't hit that D5 because he did a higher and more powerful version on their concert tour. He also hit D5 on the songs "Hunger Strike" last 2008 and "Paradise City" during his teenage years.

Last February 2009, his Declaration Tour Concert finally began where David sang "Hot For Teacher" (he always sang it actually in every tour stop) and on that performance, we found a note which is higher than D5, and that was an Eb5 belted note (half-note higher)

And now, I have the time to update his vocal range, search and look for videos which I haven't watched yet beacuse I was actually sent to a school where I need to stay and can't go out there .(Last June 2009 up to March 2010).Social Networking Sites and even YouTube was blocked and it really sucks.LOL! That's why I don't have the chance to update the Vocal Range Video which I have uploaded last March 2009 (If my memory serves me well). The account I used there was "DavidCookRange" but sad to say, I forgot it's password and even the E-mail address that I used to register that account. So I'm not able to DELETE that unupdated video.

As I said awhile ago, We (me and my friend) discovered his new LOWER NOTES (lower than A2) which makes David's Range wider.

And those notes are: G#2, G2, and the lowest, F#2.

G#2 - From the song "Anodyne" (this is half-note lower than A2)
G2 - From "Breathe Tonight" (a note lower than A2)
F#2 - From "Light On" which he performed on Disney Idol blah blah (February 2009)

David Cook has the most versatile, powerful, full ranged voice of any singer IMO! This shows proof! He puts his heart and soul into his fine instrument! He becomes his voice! Thank you for this :)

It is Not The Vocal Range the Low and High Register but for me the Quality of the Note

[PickleJarr]

@Goblonaut I'm also working on getting a C6 in mixed too. I can reach it on a good day though. But there really is a lack of material that requires belting C6. C6 is head voice is also easy for me. As I said, I'm a solid tenor. If you dont believe me, I could record my range for you to prove it. :)

[PickleJarr]

@Goblonaut And no, it is wrong to say if a singer can't detect if he is in falsetto. You just need more training if you can't sense whether you are connected or not. Glissando is not easy. You will just know that it's in falsetto when your chords are pretty much contracting.

[PickleJarr]

@Goblonaut i am fortunately a tenor :). I hit F5, G5 and A5 all the time even consecutively. If a singer knows how to mix and trained, it is all possible, even baritones. They can pop out of their natural range and extend it. There are males who can hit a solid C6 in full voice, it is not impossible.

[matthewharrismusic]

What two songs are the ones at 6:03 - 6:25 (B4 and C5)? Does anyone know?

[Goblonaut]

@PickleJarr I certainly doubt that you can hit a mixed A5 when just waking up. I have not yet heard a male go past Bb5, and all who have hit that note are almost all high tenors. A singer him/herself can't really always tell when they tend to go to falsetto. I can for example do a scale without breaks to about G#5, and I can feel that I am connected, but when I listen to it later on, I can tell that I have switched to falsetto at some point.

[PickleJarr]

@BabySteve47 Good technique will really help. No matter if you're a tenor or baritone, if you have no technique, you'll strain anyway. I'm a tenor, I have a decent/good mix, A5 is just a regular waking up note for me. When I'm on top shape, B5 and C6 mixed is just right around the corner, not just hitting it once, but a lot of times consecutively. It doesnt matter which notes are belted, as mentioned, many baritones can hit that note because they are just masters of their voices FIRST. ;)

[mrowenwriting]

what's the song at 6:15?

[GoodGuitarSolos]

@PickleJarr Well said, I agree with this.

Lambert is kinda between standard tenor and high tenor: his tessitura is of high tenor's but his timbre is purely tenorish. I'd say standard tenor for him.

Timbre-wise Cook sounds REALLY much like baritone but he seems to be pretty uncomfortable down there (judging by those few clips) and all. I'd say either really high baritone or low tenor.
