'I'm recording Danny Boy in "C". Nice and easy.'

Do you have a range of an octave plus a fifth? Because that's what it takes.

I've never liked the song, even before I knew the words. I've pecked it out on the keyboard, and the first phrase moves up to the sixth of the key. (In D, the high note on 'THE pipes are calling...' is a B.)

I have never liked the sixth. I'm beginning to suspect that on keyboards, the sixth is out of tune (even temperament and all that.)

Try minimizing that note, singing it very softly, almost skipping it. How important is 'the' anyway?
