Most Difficult Songs to in history to Sing?
What would be the most difficult songs in history to sing (as a cover) ?
I am not a technical singing expert by any means. I would imagine Kate Bush's Wuthering Heights would be up there Heart's Alone is also considered quite a difficult song to sing |

The grammar and capitalization in the header is giving me a zetz :(
Anyway, aside from the melisma-afflicted pop du jour, try tackling MmmBop at karaoke. Or better yet, don't! |

In sixth grade, our class was singing various songs from around the world for a school show and we had to sing something called "Lady of Spain," which had a prologue with a note progression in it that none of us could master. It was this verse:
Night in Madrid, blue and tender Spanish moon makes silver splendor Music throbbing, plaintive sobbing notes of a guitar While ardent caballeros serenade I had occasion to bring this up recently with two classmates from that era (this show happened 50 years ago) and neither one could remember what the hell I was talking about. |

One more. Credeasi, Misera! without resorting to falsetto. Probably only couple handfuls have been able to sing this over the last two hundred years or so.

Anything sung by Freddie Mercury or Roy Orbison, both had incredible range - deep to high and back again without breaking.

(Maybe not exactly what the OP had in mind).
Trying to sing and play guitar at the same time, where the singing is not written entirely in sync with the guitar lines, and/or the guitar lines are extremely technical. Examples of the former is stuff like: Journey - Separate Ways (World Apart), Only The Young, etc ... Guns 'N Roses - Welcome To The Jungle Duran Duran - The Reflex Def Leppard - Hysteria ie. The singer isn't also playing a guitar. |

I would imagine many of Mariah Carey's songs would apply here.

I've always been proud of myself for being able to nail "Semi-Charmed Life" by Third Eye Blind in karaoke a few times. I know all the words and can hit the high notes haha.
