That's why, as I've mentioned earlier in more than one post, it is imperative that you find the applicable speech. My teacher and I call if "sing/speech", which refers to the type of speech which translates into singing. Once you find it, your entire range is rooted on that speech and has no breaks. And it is slightly different than just plain speech. For those lucky few are "naturals", my belief is that they happen to speak on this "sing/speech" just by "accident", and so the leap to singing and singing well is eliminated. They can just do it.
