Expression in vocals is not very hard if you can find a way to relate to the lyrics. That is why you sit down with the lyrics if you didn't write them and analyze. What was the writer going for? What does he want us to feel? If you can decipher that, emotion and how well you create moods is not that hard if you've been singing for a while. The choir I was in was known for great emotion, and we didn't even try that hard after analyzation.
Right on, sometimes the most important thing about singing is the way you express the lyrics. And this is what I meant by tonal expression. You could be singing a dark song but perhaps if you don't menace your voice, then perhaps you've lost a key connection with the audience and with the art.

and no, Adam Lopez owns the world record. Go to the guinness site and look up "highest vocal note" (I can't post URLs yet I guess).

It says "by a male," but it's actually by human being
Just looked it up buddy, it's Georgia Brown. Adam holds it for a male, correct.
