[edit] Vocal range

I removed the statistic about Geoff's vocal range. It was originally written as 4 octaves by User:RandyRhoadsRonnieDio, but was later "changed" to 3.25 by 68.58.191.155. That's probably wrong, since — after it was reverted — they started changing it to more ridiculous values like 5.25, 2.5, and 100. Such a specific fact should probably have a citation anyway, so if someone has one, please restore it. ×Meegs 21:59, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Range Geoff tate

This is a very representative Song when it comes about Range display

http://www.youtube.com/player.swf?video_id=CoINxEWhYKI&l=279

I´d estimate 3.5 Octaves

Highest Note: Before The STorm -1st refrain

Lowest Note : Eyes of The STranger (I see your face looking back at me)

user:komodo123, http://youtube.com/watch?v=jFI63qTzlBY, and http://youtube.com/watch?v=VqWeBteIV9s&watch_response

both show how geoff tate's range is at least 4 octaves, especially the second

that's citation there. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Komodo123 (talk • contribs) 18:45, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

Well, maybe he can go lower. But from what I remember he sings an E2 in Silent Lucidity (I'm using scientific notation): It's the HUSH part in "Hush, now don't you cry". So E2 (from what I remember, he didn't go that low in Before The Storm, I'll check if I can find my CD back). The highest recorded note I've ever heard him sing is an A5 in Blinded. It's the final part where he sings BLIN-DED!!! Which is BLIN=A5 DED=G5. E2-A5 = 3 octaves and five semitones. --Manolito Mystiq 15:20, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hear N Aid?

Perhaps a link and reference to Hear N Aid since he was one of the featured vocalists?
