This would be my answer as well, but honestly I don't think I believe you. Mike Patton has sung in an opera. Can you sing in an opera? I'm convinced that he can do just about anything.

Okay, none of the yelps, screams, growls or opera. I also don't quite have his range. I have a lot of power, but I'm sure he could outstrip me there too.
The point is, trying to equal Mike Patton is my aim as a vocalist and what helps me get better at it. Something to aim for.

i find it fairly easy to mimic the two melodic styles he used in FNM (the sorta nasal style on The Real Thing, and the thicker, deeper tone he uses on Angel Dust onwards), but his screams and yelps kill my throat almost immediately (although i've never been good at screaming). i find, in terms of range, his ridiculous lows (like the verses of "Ashes to Ashes") are harder to reach than his highs.
but hell, how fun is it to throw on "Everything's Ruined" and sing along, eh!?

Matt Barlow
look out! Ninjas!:
Tom Waits on Kentucky Avenue. That shit could make me cry sometimes.
Freddie Mercury. There's such a huge range there, and he can get them all perfect every time.
Oh, and Colonel Klink, when he does the opening bit of Ride of the Valkyries on that episode of Hogan's Heroes. Undiluted awesome.

I think 'Land Of Sunshine' has one of his wider ranges. I use that song as my vocal warm-up because it's so all over the place.
I can hit the low notes on 'Ashes To Ashes,' it's 'Stripsearch' that freaks me the fuck out.
