I was listening to Gnarlz Barkley ("Crazy"), and was thinking how C-Lo sang in falsetto, but then I was, well, maybe he is just a tenor? Same with Phillip Bailey (earth wind and fire), who says he sings in Falsetto, but is Smokey Robinson a tenor or singing in falsetto?
What's the difference?

When singing or speaking in falsetto, only the edges of the vocal cords vibrate. This allows a singer to reach notes higher than his normal range. I don't know about the other singers, but I'm pretty sure Smokey just has a high singing voice.

Heres a fun way to look at it. You know that character that Mike Mcdonald plays on Mad TV called "Stuart"? THAT's falsetto! LOL! and Smokey sings naturally in his range.

um tenor is when you sing in a low voice that men (maybe a few woman) sing in
a falsetto is typically when a man sings in his fake upper ranged voice
