He is NOT a Soprano. Yes, he may be able to belt F5 and G5 but that doesn't make him a Soprano. His natural and comfortable range is Tenor. Don't get me wrong, he is indeed amazing!!!!!
Ulisses Oliveira You didn't understand the point I was making. The thing is that he sounds more natural when he sings Tenor....There is a lot of warmth. His really high notes are great and has a great range but should keep most of it in Tenor where he is most comfortable. Also, Countertenors don't belt. They sing in a falsetto or head voice which is more suitable for classical music. He is just a high Tenor with extension. I know because I have the same problem. I'm a high Tenor and can reach the high notes of a Mezzo-Soprano!!!!
Chad Guindon Alex doesn't have a problem (not one at all), when it comes to his vocals. You can label all day and night, it means nothing. I haven't heard any one sing like that, low to high, from soft to bellowing, but not losing any effect,since Whitney in her best years. Alex has a one of a kind voice, a one in a trillion trillion trillion. It can't be defined. It just is and it's the best out there. Period.
Oh boy! I am so floored watching & hearing this beautiful person sing. Wish I could have a duet with Alex Newell. All things are possible and I claim it! :)
There's a light in the darkness Though the night black as my skin There's a light burning bright showing me the way But I know where I've been There's a cry in distance It's a voice that comes from deep within There's a cry asking why I pray the answer's up ahead yeah 'Cause I know where I've been There's a road we've been travellin' Lost so many on the way But the riches will be plenty With the price, the price we had to pay There's a dream in the future There's a struggle that we have yet to win And there's pride in my heart 'Cause I know where I'm going, yes I do And I know where I've been, yeah There's a road that we must travel There's a promise that we must make Oh the riches will be plenty Oh the dream in the future Oh the struggle we must win Use that pride in our heart To lift us up Lord knows i know Where I've been
I meant no disrespect! Alex plays a Transgender character on Glee who identifies as 'She'. Whatever pronouns Alex prefers personally; A huge talent and a great representative for the LGBTQ Community. You go, Alex!!
That woman behind Alex is getting her life
ikr
he should be world famous .....beautifull
she is already known. i love her from TURKEY :)
enes doğan he* I believe you're using female pronouns because of his character on Glee, but he's not trans in real life.
He is just amazing
Now THAT'S singing!!!!
No darling THAT is SANGIN !!! :-)
Alex inspires me so much!!! He should be in Broadway.
Check him out in “Once On This Island.”
Thank you, Alex, for the gift of your amazing voice.
One of the few male sopranos

Counter Tenor*
Chad Guindon No tenor is able to hit G5 in modal register!
Alex Newell sings in the same tessitura of a mezzo-soprano
He's a countertenor.

Love his voice
There's a light in the darkness
Though the night black as my skin
There's a light burning bright showing me the way
But I know where I've been
There's a cry in distance
It's a voice that comes from deep within
There's a cry asking why
I pray the answer's up ahead yeah
'Cause I know where I've been
There's a road we've been travellin'
Lost so many on the way
But the riches will be plenty
With the price, the price we had to pay
There's a dream in the future
There's a struggle that we have yet to win
And there's pride in my heart
'Cause I know where I'm going, yes I do
And I know where I've been, yeah
There's a road that we must travel
There's a promise that we must make
Oh the riches will be plenty
Oh the dream in the future
Oh the struggle we must win
Use that pride in our heart
To lift us up
Lord knows i know
Where I've been
Toujours autant de frissons
Damn!!! He can sang!!!!
MEU DEUS! Como ele é INCRÍVEL! :""""D
