What the voice is asked to do
Two octaves exactly, from a muttered low B up to the falsetto-or-full B4 wail before the last chorus. The verses ask for almost nothing technically, which is the trap — the dynamic explosion has to arrive out of that stillness, and the top can be taken in falsetto or full voice depending on what the singer has.
Figures are the cited key and lead-vocal range (Musicnotes original-key arrangement, sounding B2–B4 in G major), not lab measurements. No lyrics or melody are reproduced here — this page is about what the song demands of a voice.
