      You don't know what an octave is so stop using the word. You mean she sings in her upper range or she sings higher notes.

      I agree with you. Her voice is different to the point I can't recognize it is her. As I look at the show, she don't look happy. She is more happy singing Gospel.

    Thats so funny I am listening to it right now. I Think it is the same key but you are right Coko most definitely is hitting higher notes in chest . When Yo went high she went into head voice. Coko is going nuts on this at 3:31 & 3:46 that is really high, (I'm not sure how pleasing it was) and 4:45 - 6 she spiked something really high, I hope anyone with a tuner will reply to let me know what that note was.

      True....CoCo can hit high notes in full voice better than any singer I know....but Yolanda Adams is much better in terms of transitions and control. CoCo got off key at 1:20 and a few times actually. CoCo has an AMAZING upper register, but Yolanda Adams is a better vocalist "over all."

    Yeah, I am sure she can go quite a bit higher, in exclamation I am sure she could do Eb6. I can even hit C6 LOL (not truly sustained but more than an exclamation) Example I can hit the same note at the very end of Mariah Carey's song "Making it Last All Night" which is a C6 but not her C6 at the beginning of "It's A Wrap" Coko probably could go into an F#6

    Sounds like the same key to me. Coko's voice is lighter and higher than Yo's, Yo's voice is fuller and richer. Compared to Yo's performance on Sunday Best they pretty much hit the same notes in their chest voice. Coko probably a bit higher. I would have to really listen to both again to be 100% sure

    If she took take care of her voice 5 world tours, x amount of CDs, yelling at her kid(s), tv appearences, etc wouldn't have messed it up. Drug abuse, cigs, making yourself vomiting (I doubt she did that on purpose but I'm just putting it in the list to make a point), will ruin a voice.
