Pretty sure Roger's on the low 3rd and Mike goes from 5 up to the high tonic. That's for sure how they do it on the album recording

1351 :) barítone singing the third, the lead is singing the fifth and the tonic is being sung by the bass and tenor

1-5-1-3. Tenor on 3 above baritone. Lead goes down to 5 on “time”

yeah, I think you're right. you can hear him shifting into subharmonic range just before the last chord

+spotlessmcpartland He is an international gold medal winning tenor. You don't get much better than him.

I think he's got three gold medals by now :)

@@UniqueActive Main Street was Roger's 2nd gold. First with Keepsake in 1992

ditto! Was thinking the very same thing!

Hi. Nobody ever replied. Yes, juicy undertone.

And in fact, that one is there, goes away as they change chords and then comes back just as strong!!! One of the strongest recorded undertones I've ever heard and there were a few more in the early part of the song!!!

@@SkragaRooRoo Apologies but Myron isn’t using any sub-harmonic singing there. Voices to be perfectly tuned like that go off unequal temperament, which is a fancy way of saying not the exact pitch. For example the fifth needs to be around 14 cents sharp, and the 3rd needs to be a tiny flat. Doing all that makes that “synth” like sound that happens at the end, as well as multiple times during the song. Resonance also matters, with all the 4 sings matching each others resonance as well as their vowel choices. Hell, we call it “undertones” but they aren’t even technically undertones but since we use the word overtones a lot, it’s easier to understand the concept if we say undertone.
