Singing Sweet but Psycho: what your voice is in for
The hook does the damage here: a chorus that plants itself high and returns relentlessly at 133 bpm with an energy score of 84. The researched range runs G#3 to C#5, a 17 semitone span, and the deciding moment is the back half of each chorus, where the line refuses to come down and mixed-voice endurance matters more than any single peak.
Altos fit the whole range, 1 semitone of headroom at the top and 3 in reserve below, and the page's key math offers them a 1 semitone drop from the stored C# major to C major as extra insurance. Mezzos are only 1 short at the bottom, and the suggested 2 semitone lift lands them in D# major with the entire map inside their band. Tenors sit 4 over the ceiling; the math offers a 6 semitone drop to G major, a big move that turns the hook from a fight into a stroll. Ava Max built this chorus for repetition, so whatever key you choose, choose it for the tenth pass, not the first.
Practice cue: sing the chorus three times in a row on nn, then once on words. If the third pass feels worse than the first, lighten up; this song rewards spin, not muscle.
Written from this song's researched range on file, G#3 to C#5 (17 semitones), original key C# major. July 2026.
