Um, no. The otional high notes in Wicked can be up to a G6, and I do not think that's what Cheno is hitting here, it's at least an F6 though. Hilty does not hit that. So if you want to say it's the "Hilty high note" you need to go a bit lower, because she does NOT reach the quality F that Cheno hits in this piece. Damn idiots.

@JessicaVictification Notice the phrase "so-called." I'm aware that it's technically a different note, but the point of uploading this in the first place was to prove to some people that Cheno did the high note at the end of this song long before Hilty was ever in the role. The exact note she hits is entirely beside the point. The title of the video is "Cheno Note" for that reason.

@flickchick85 I was addressing you, BUT the damn idiots wasn't for you, just so you know. It was for everyone who believes Hilty is better, I like her, and respect her, but she's not. Anyways, I misinterpreted what YOU were saying. I'm sorry :)

[flickchick85]

@JessicaVictification Haha, thanks, I gotcha. No worries. :)

Great video, sweetie! Just one teeny thing. That's not the Hilty High Note. That's the Cheno Note. Always has been, always will be.

@secondhandrose1995 Look at the title of the video. That was the entire point I was trying to make (to people suggesting Hilty was the "ultimate G(a)linda" because of the "Hilty High Note") by uploading this - that Cheno did it first. And yeah, I realize it's a different (higher) note, but that's kind of beside the point.

I just wanted to say it was the Cheno note before the Hilty High Note....

And she is an amazing soprano!

[PernilleBorup]

OMG! That was amazing. If I had tried that, I'd been jailed for making people cringe and scream in pain.

@theshowtunesguy Megan never sang it, she sings a sharp E6, not an F6 as Kristin does.

[pedrofribeiro]

A great F6! OMG, that high with no effort, I wonder what's her top register note is..

[LuAikawa]

OMG how is it even possible to hit that note? She is so amazing. I'm pretty sure most people I know couldn't hit that note with years and years of vocal training.

[ProudSpeakerofWhale]

I just love it that she has an entire note named after her... :D

[DefyingGravityOz]

She has a lovely voice!

@JessicaVictification I'ts an F6 here. What song is the optional G6 in, I haven't noticed that one

[TheBroadwaywannabe]

@JessicaVictification I kinda sorta loved your comment. Way to read my mind. And it's an F6 here.

HOLY MOTHER OF ALL THAT'S MUSICAL! How is anyone able to hit that note?!
