What the voice is asked to do

A slow gospel-blues build that lives in the baritone's strongest octave, then leans on a sustained, full-voiced B4 in the choruses — comfortable territory for a high baritone, a strain for anyone who reaches it from below. The difficulty is stamina, not acrobatics: the chorus top repeats over and over at full volume.

Figures are the commonly cited range and published key for the studio version (Musicnotes original-key arrangement, sounding C3–B4 in E minor; some range sites cite a low growl near E2), not lab measurements. No lyrics or melody are reproduced here — this page is about what the song demands of a voice.
