I'm not entirely convinced of this, mostly because there's an F instead of an F# in the chord.

To my uneducated ear, the Fm7b5 is functioning more like an altered B chord that it resolves into a less-altered B chord..

Since the chord is mostly minor thirds, the B-D# interval sticks out because my ear wants a strong interval.

Just my 2 cents.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
