So Geddy are you a tenor, an alto or a soprano? Geddy: yes (Edit: this is just a joke lol)

prefer noto I don’t think he’s a tenor at all. Not all men fit into the male categories. Some men sit higher than tenors (myself included) and don’t sound like tenors (myself and Geddy included). Even in classical world some men call themselves contraltos, mezzos and sopranos.

Considering how his voice could go easily above C5 with no falsetto, I think he wouldn't be in the tenor range. It's a very uncommon voice.

don't be a liar, any soprano with a monotonous voice is B4 with a two-octave common range, it's B3 B5 if a monotonous voice outside of C5 would be its two-octave common range, it would be C4 C6 if it expands like Geedy Lee be a C3 B6

That ending of Cygnus X-1 is honestly among the fucking wildest vocal pitches I've ever heard in a song
I can't get enough of the C#5 in Marathon. How it is used in the song is perfectly triumphant, even if it isn't one of his highest notes.

Great bassist and vocalist!
Brian Johnson, Robert Plant and Geddy Lee are true masters of the highest notes ever.
Amazing video dude!
cedric bixler-zavala's tonality is quite similar to lee's. and they are both very acquired tastes - geddy lee even more so than cedric imho
The first C6 is a synth effect and the second one is around Bb5-B5 because of the tape speed being a semitone too fast...

What about the studio version of Cygnus X1? The final high note
On hemispheres chapter 2 he says “fire” super high that or the the end of part 1 I think
He cranks the highs on Something for Nothing

use Head voice/Falsetto, Look up Geoff Tate from Queensryche, the warning album, he is a deep Baritone. or look at Michael Kiske from Helloween he is a high Baritone. or look at Warrel Dane in the 80s or Matt Barlow from Iced Earth, 2 bass baritone singing that high. Tenors just have an easier time getting into the head voice but lower voices have a stronger/thicker head voice. if you train it you can do it better than a tenor, like David Coverdale.

Sleep 8 hrs no booze or cigarettes and experiment how far you can take your voice and last learn when to breath in between .
What about the note in BU2B when Geddy sings "heaven's justice will prevail" ?? That's pretty low
Geddy Lee's high register is very similar-sounding to Robert Plant's high register.

Name of songs???
Geddy never had the best technique, same as Plant, but this concert (kzread.info/dash/bejne/q3lmucyMnbjJgqQ.html) is evidence that Geddy just chooses not to do the highest notes often becuase of touring and lost of stamina as one gets older, i think it was probably more like an artistic choice and simply to make it more practical for him to be able to sing entire tours because he never actually lost his voice, they just require a lot of energy, he'll always be a very light tenor anyway.
the C2 is spoken and dosen't count, how do you pitch a spoken note man?? IMO his range is A2-B5

Felken that's almost 3 octaves. An octave is the range of one pitch to the other, so 1(A2 - A3) + 1(A3 - A4) + 0.875(A4 - G5) = 2.875 octaves (A2 - G5)
