Really? No wonder I have a sore throat!

Don't know if it's highest, but the last line, and particularly the last word (waste), in "A Kiss Is A Terrible Thing To Waste" is insanely high too

Like to bring the end of "A Kiss..." into play.

The highest notes on HCTB are on California - those falsetto notes on the last two "I don't make promises any more" are the high Es. You could argue that he probably gets a higher note in the screams before "I can barely fit..." but these are screams and don't really count, impressive as they are.

Of the other songs mentioned, the next highest are the high notes at the end of Elvis In Vegas; which are C sharps. Then Living On The Outside where the highest notes are Cs. The highest notes in If It Rains are Bs so they are the lowest of all the above.

These notes are impressive for a singer of 30 let alone one over 60.

I agree, very impressive - and those sound more likely notes. Also, I'm sure I've read that there aren't many male singers whose range includes high Cs. I saw Barry Manilow live at Proms in the Park once and he said he doesn't do one song live because it has G in it (not high G either!) He did it, and just made it

I can do quite a good high B, but not quite nailed the C yet. Just a little bit out of my range. Working on it though.

On the "In Search of Paradise" DVD as he was warming up before a show with Mark Alexander, and he hit one very very high note if I remember correctly.

dont recall that....

but i do recall Gimme Shelter arrangement was far superior then 3 Bats Live and he hit a very low note.

The note Steve mentioned at the very end of Bat is a B below high C. It's a high one, but not his highest.

The "baaaack" from the YouTube Life is a Lemon that was posted is an A above high C. It might be the winner.

In the studio "I'm Gonna Love Her For Both of Us", he hits a C# on "There ain't no holding..." at the end of the bridge.
