Default What is Meat's Highest note?

I've been listening to try and find Meat's highest recorded and live note. He has a high C which is very impressive. Does he go higher in any song? any clue? I'm sure Meat would know his highest note, i am just curious!

A high F, (which when transposed during the live shows is either D sharp or E) on Paradise "Lord I was crazed", sometimes he shouts it but when he sings it is definitely the highest note.

It's a big note but it's not a high note.

My guess would be the "you're" at the beginning of Living On The Outside, which if it isn't a top C it's a D (haven't got a keyboard to hand so will go with the answer of anyone that does! )

FFS A question was asked and I answered it what's your problem? Incase you haven't noticed other people had different answers aswell. I don't hear you calling them out though.

That High C is a High note for a male vocalist for sure.

The way its sustained makes it big.

what is his highest falsetto and full voice?

Would it not be the high notes he hit in California, and the one he always hit in Life Is A Lemon?

Yeah if it rains is a very high note. I was speaking to my Wife who knows quite a bit about music and she reckons that's a G. But it's a genuine G not a falsetto. The California ones are falsetto G's.

Do non-word ad lib "WAAAAAHHHH's" count in a hitting the note discussion? There are several WAAAAAAHHH's Meat does that are up there in sound but I don't know if it is a "note".
