[@paulco4145]

Great compilation, thanks! I wonder what note he hit on the 2nd verse of "My Radio (sure sounds good to me)." Had to be down there among the F1 area or so, I would guess.

That one is an F#1, I maybe should've included it. :p

@Aaron Anderson Technically yes, but I think it's hard to achieve... Hitting the 0th octave with the first subharmonics is very hard.

So eb1 is his lowest I thought he could hit c#1 at least people had said he could

[@conrar1320]

In his prime, he probably could have. A singer's recorded lowest note and actual capable lowest note won't always be the same.
