[edit] Vocal Range
I know this can't be listed because it's personal research, but I think it could be an interesting discussion. I'm pretty bad at classifying singers, but I'm pretty sure he's a tenor? His range, from what I've heard and attempted to measure, is C2 (in "Goodbye" - it's probably not really that low, though) up to Eb6 (in "Dedication").
Also, this article mentions his soprano voice. I'm pretty sure his high notes are in falsetto (just listen to Onepa #1 Asian version and compare it to the European voice. It's the exact same, but you can clearly hear that one sounds like the 'uglyness' was just edited out of the flasetto), correct me if I'm wrong, but if you're using your falsetto, wouldn't you be a countertenor or falsettist? 69.160.116.44 07:07, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
You can't call someone a falsetto, someone can be "singing falsetto" but it would be a soprano voice.
Vitas' range is clearly above tenor, so countertenor/male alto is a better term to use. I would not say "soprano voice" is wrong, but it's quite easy to cause confusion.
[edit] Wording
"In March 2003 he also gave 264 solo concerts including in Russia, Australia, USA..." Should this be reworded? It kind of seems that it's saying he did 264 concerts in the month of March. That would be almost 9 shows a night. 69.160.116.44 07:07, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Whistle register
Vitas used to be listed in the "Whistle register singers" category but was removed.
Would this be proof that he can sing that high (C# above soprano C): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xlEZ1udpT0&search=vitas
Or is that not high enough to count as "Whistle register"?
- That note is not in the whistle register, as far as I can tell. Highconclave 03:37, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
In that video he is up to a C#6 and someone above said in one of his songs he reaches an Eb6. That's still a semi-tone away from the bottom of the whistle register range; according to the article, the bottom of the range is an E6. Also, even if he did sing an E6 I'd think he'd have to sing more than a couple whistle register notes for him to be a fully-fledged whistle register singer, no? 02:16, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
Is this the Eb6? http://youtube.com/watch?v=8T-GGr1NtXc (circa 2:49)?
[edit] Vitas
Hi! I am wondering why does it say in the beginning of the article about Vitas that he is an Ukrainian-born and then that he is a porno star. He is definitly not a porno star and he is born in Latvia. If this is an error why it has not been corrected because i think it should. The readors who does not who Vitas is may think he is really a porno star because the article says so.
