See, the dumbest thing about high notes is that if you have got a fantastic belt you always use it. A friend of mine ended every f***ing song the same way....BOOORING! As a high Tenor I can belt a Bb, but I can also sing Christine in Phantom in my head"Opera Diva" voice (well everything appart from the last bit of the title song)...

Technically M. O'Haughey recorded "A Little Bit of Good" in a higher key than D. Sabella, so I think he would win. He hit some serious uber-high B flats (I think). Having played Mary Sunshine, let me just say that is one bear of a song to sing (especially in heels!)

Michael Ball hits a B flat at the end of "Love Changes Everything." I don't know how he sustained that every night on stage!
Theater anywhere, anytime and with anyone. It's my passion.

Well Titus is singing High G's...above high B Flat. But y'all should know it's not chest. It's what we call a chest/head mix. Much like how many women can make their mixes sound like a belt (sort of). If he sang all of that in his chest, it'd explode...or his voice would blow out.

If we are limited to just a soundtrack, I would have to go with either Titus or Neeley from JCSS. Both I believe are going up to High G. But for theater song recordings in general or live, I would have to go with Danny Zolli doing Gethsemene from JCSS. Zolli easily nails that High G and then goes above it ( a High B, I think during a riff note) during his version of "Gethsemene". I've seen him do this a couple of times live, and frankly it's just sick. It has a piercing real blood and guts tone to it, and it's just sick.

That DING DONG note in Sweeney Todd by Beadle is RIDICULOUS.

Songs For a New World, that note in Flying Home.

I mean- whoever it was that said about Jonothon Groff on the SA soundtrack- I do agree, it is quite high, but it's just there, he doesnt so the note any justice- dont get me wrong I LOVE the show, but sometimes live- that note is just way too pitchy...

I will have to agree about JCSS though- that's pretty sick.

Steve Balsamo takes the crown in terms of "Gethsemane".
And also, Ty Taylor's high F on "LOOOOOOOOOOORD" on "On the Deck" from SFANW is absolutely amazing.

But I'd say the winner is Tituss Burgess, not just on "Under the Sea," but on "Oh What a Night" as well. He hits that same note.
