  1. sorry if I resume this thread, but Billie Joe Amrstrong is not a baritone at all, he's a low tenor which sounds close to a light baritone but he still has tenor cords, he can pull off a very good full A4 without mixing so much which is a note that not all the baritones have. Judging by your words you haven't seen many recent green day concerts have you? Billie once hit a C#5, he learned to do a gritty mixed voice and often goes higher than a A4 with that, he's been covering some AC/DC and led zeppelin songs also, even though he tends to make a mockery of them when he does. Believe me, I'm a light baritone and I was forced into a green day tribute but after 3 years I had to give up cause it was hard, and believe me it's hard, Billie doesn't have a very good vocal technique, he just tends to push the chest voice and often sings in very unconfortable ranges (he's often around E4 G4 for entire songs). So he might sound like a baritone, especially in their golden age, but if you hear the new albums he always sings in the tenor range, so he's either a great singer (which I think not) or he's just a versatile tenor (most likely), I think he's a well gifted low tenor with a characteristic timbre which works great in punk rock songs and even pop.
