What are some songs with boy sopranos anywhere in them?

Question

For instance, this song:

It doesn't have to be slow like that though, it can be a metal song like the beginning of this one:

or:

Thanks.

Answer 1

I'm not sure there is such a thing as Boy Sopranos - There are Boy Choirs and Altos.

( no offense !! - I may well be Wrong !! :)

Jon Anderson of Yes is an Alto ( higher than a Tenor )

Anyway - The only Genre of R&P-related music using Boy Choirs is Instumental or Electronic music.

David Bedford's "The Odyssey" makes good use of this Atmospheric technique -- I think it may also be on his "Instructions for Angels" but, I am not sure.

As far as a Single Boy Soloist ( with High voice )

The Soundtrack to "The Cook, The Thief, His Wife, and Her Lover" have a Beautiful Vocal - But that is Soundtrack Music.

I AM Looking forward to Others' Answers, here - to find out -- It's a great affect !!

What about Jimmy Somerville ( how old was he ?? ) LOL

EDIT --

Oh, Good Piont "ROBIN" on Klaus Nomi.!!

This Guy was New Wave Experimental and He's like listening to CABARET on ACID !!

...and as Robin said - He has an extraordinary Octavenal(word?) Range - though I believe his Higher Parts were actually "Falsetto" not "Soprano" - but that's my opinion.

Okay - I just looked him up - for it's Wiki-Worth - they call him a "countertenor" - but either way - his Avant-Gardeness is LEGENDARY !!

Answer 2

I didn't click any of your links...but "Under The Bridge" by Red Hot Chili Peppers has a boy choir, and i'm pretty sure they have some sopranos. Also check out some Queen songs.

Answer 3

If you're looking for male sopranos, try Klaus Nomi. He can sing everything from soprano to bass. You can find his CD's at used CD stores.
