Not so much. I've been with 60 years old who had a much better range than I used to have, and they are the reason why I can sing up to the 5th and even the beginning of the 6th octave as a male. Once you master the technique there is no reason to lose it when you play all the time. At all. Simply most people try to "hit the note", which is exactly the opposite of what you should do, period. If you look at how opera singers do it, you can use the same principle in any style... you open that throat wide as much as you can and sing from the belly up. Actually takes much less efforts to sing head voice than to sing belting voice, Freddy Mercury style. Chest and head voices ain't hard at all once you get your belt voice together. Now THAT'S hard. Most singers don't really have a belt voice at all, when all of you vocal folds are required. It's super intense. That's why almost no one can sing Queen's songs to original pitch with Freddy's intensity.

I watched this thinking about how beautifully the keyboard player harmonized. Such a perfect blend with Cheryl’s voice, spot on. I looked in the notes to learn she is Jen Gunderman, not only a professional musician, but a professor of music! I’m definitely going to look for her music!

The Chemistry that occurs when at the Beginning if It Makes You Happy when she starts with her going a little off meter and the calls out 2 3 4 as she looks at the drummer and his eyes seem to say "right I got it" is a very precious moment

Sheryl is 57 now... wow. My childhood... covering songs with Dad, and just jamming out to all of the albums of hers that Mom had. Awesome. Like everyone else, I miss the 90s.

That is pure artistic quality on every level, seen so rare on these days!! Her voice, the songs, the lyrics, the musicians and the whole energy from that performance!! Wow!!
