Just stumbled on this one. It is in my range for most of it. Will be using it this evening to see how I pair up with the target resonance.

Do you have more such (in the lower female range) to share? It is likely all the matter of following the singers that are in that range.

As low as possible whilst still sounding female.
In some recordings I was amazed to hear some tones from cis females that actually sound male. One won't notice them because of all the rest of the song, but if isolated.

The lowest pitched voice I heard so far that still is clearly female is in this video (german):

Its pretty crazy. My speech therapist let me once read a text and then slowly lower my pitch while she looked the other way - she tried to determine the pitch where her perception of my gender in the voice flips. and it was amazingly low - around the C3

Tracy Chapman has a low range in some songs. Try listening to her,might not be low enough though. I don't know

This one is entirely in my range:

At short chunks from 1m15s and from 2m19s etc., the base (singer's) voice is more male than anything else.
This one is also in my range:

So, I do have the range. Must be that the resonance needs workout.
