Singing Catch My Breath: what your voice is in for
The researched range on this 2012 Kelly Clarkson single runs F#3 to F#5, a 24 semitone span, and the architecture is a long escalator: verses pace the middle at 124 bpm, the pre chorus tightens, and the deciding moment is the final chorus, where the melody stops visiting the top octave and simply lives there on sustained fifth octave notes. That last stretch demands supported belt with real endurance, not a single money note but a plateau you hold with steady breath and loose shoulders.
Mezzos are the closest casting, and even they get squeezed: the top sits one semitone above the mezzo ceiling while the low F#3 dips three below the mezzo floor. The page's key math offers mezzos a one semitone lift to A# major, favoring the bottom and trusting the belt up top. Altos face four semitones over the ceiling and can take the offered two semitone drop to G major. Sopranos have three semitones of headroom on the top notes but sit six below their floor at the bottom; the key math points them to a four semitone lift to C# major. Two full octaves means somebody always pays at one end. If this register suits you, Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You) works the same muscles.
Practice cue: sing the last chorus on a lip trill, twice through. If the trill cuts out on the sustains, the breath is the problem, not the notes.
