What the voice is asked to do

A bright, running eighth-note melody that barely pauses for breath — the difficulty is the treadmill tempo and the airy, forward tone, not the notes. The chorus taps A4 lightly rather than sitting on it, so the song rewards agility and breath planning over power.

Figures are the commonly cited range and published key for the studio version (Musicnotes original-key arrangement, written E4–A5, sounding E3–A4 in A major), not lab measurements. No lyrics or melody are reproduced here — this page is about what the song demands of a voice.
