[edit] Whistle register

He has been known to sing high in the soprano range easily and people who search for samples of whistle register singing have found clips of him live.

  • This man can hit notes some FEMALE singers can't even hit.

On the BET Awards from like 2003 or 2004, Phillip hit an F6 note in a live version of "Reasons" (and this is no lie.)

I can't seem to find that on youtube or anywhere. But If you listen to the live recorded version of Devotion he does hit E6 and C6 about 2 other times.Myke 07:22, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
Here it is: Philip Bailey F6 Yeah he hits it twice and Eb6 also. Myke 11:39, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Which note is it?

There is a song that Phillip recorded with EWF entitled "Mighty Mighty". Towards the end of the song, Phillip hits a very high note, but I can't tell if it is Eb6 or Eb7 though it really sounds like the latter. Can anyone help me? TamYum

It's Eb6. Philip Bailey is a singer like Al Green who have sharp falsettos and so they make the pitch souind an octave higher. I was confused about Al Green's D6 in I Can't Get Next To You because I thought it was D7. Myke 07:22, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
