No woman on earth can sing as low as Joy Chapman.

The Surrey-based singer is now a world-record holder after hitting a very deep 33.57-hertz C1 note.

香蕉视频直播淚t香蕉视频直播檚 all official, ,香蕉视频直播� Chapman said of her 香蕉视频直播淟owest vocal note by a female香蕉视频直播� world record, achieved Feb. 21 and recorded for a video posted to her Youtube channel.

香蕉视频直播淚t香蕉视频直播檚 not even my lowest note, so I香蕉视频直播檓 going to do another attempt to smash the record,香蕉视频直播� she promised.

In the minute-long video, Chapman introduces herself as a 52-year-old Surrey resident who works as a singer, songwriter and tribute artist. As a 香蕉视频直播渞etro-modern country香蕉视频直播� musician, she has a 15-song album coming out called .

Her world record is one way for Chapman to get noticed in the music world.

香蕉视频直播淎bout a year ago, I was just doing scales and vocal training, and through the years I noticed different vocal coaches kind of freaking out as I香蕉视频直播檓 going down the vocal scale, that it was creeping them out,香蕉视频直播� Chapman recalled with a laugh.

Her niece did some research and discovered that the female record for low-note singing was well above how low Chapman was able to go. 香蕉视频直播淭hat kind of started this,香蕉视频直播� said Chapman, who lives in the Clayton area, on the Surrey-Langley border.

Turns out, the record attempt was a long, nerve-wracking ordeal over the past year.

香蕉视频直播淓verything had gone wrong with all the tries before this one,香蕉视频直播� Chapman said. 香蕉视频直播淚t was ridiculous, the number of things that went wrong.香蕉视频直播�

First, there were problems with a low-end limiter on the mic. Days later, Joy香蕉视频直播檚 mother slipped into a coma and died, resulting in a sad delay. Later, studio noise aborted another session, and yet more camera issues caused problems.

Understandably, Chapman said she was nervous in the moments before she finally hit the record low note in February. 香蕉视频直播淪o uptight with everything,香蕉视频直播� she said her vocals tightened up, so she wasn香蕉视频直播檛 able to go as low as she typically can.

香蕉视频直播淲hat I can sing is at the end of the sonogram, apparently,香蕉视频直播� Chapman explained. 香蕉视频直播淚香蕉视频直播檓 being lined up with a specialist to scope my vocals to see what香蕉视频直播檚 actually happening, for science, that allows me to go that low. It香蕉视频直播檚 hypothesized that because I have a condition called hyper-mobility syndrome in my body, that I香蕉视频直播檓 able to lower my larynx than most humans. We香蕉视频直播檇 like to get some universities involved because we need more forensic equipment.

香蕉视频直播淭he sonograms and mics have trouble picking up the notes,香蕉视频直播� Chapman added, 香蕉视频直播渂ecause when you香蕉视频直播檙e going as low as I am it becomes difficult to hear the notes. It香蕉视频直播檚 almost not notes, it香蕉视频直播檚 vibrations at that point.香蕉视频直播�
