    I think I'm a tenor, but I don't know for sure. Diane tells me I am and since she has such a fantastic ear I am inclined to trust her.

    That said, I can't sing for toffee. I would have a good singing voice were it not for the fact that EVERYTHING I sing comes out completely flat.

    I'm a baritone, and my range has gotten slowly lower and narrower the older I get. I can't do the "Why why why why why" in "Runaway" any more, but I can sing Mark Knopfler songs better now!

    Since I was in high school I have been a bass-baritone (leaning more towards baritone), though I can on occasion bring it up a notch -- but I'm more comfortable in the lower range

    I have sung baritone and tenor (occasionally dipping into bass but it's not easy)but generally fall into the baritone range.

    It kinda depends on how hard I get a "groin injury". I have reached "ultrasonic" range a couple times.
