Not sure, but I'd also like to know.  His voice was pretty impressive on Rhiad.

Yeah but it goes from as low as we've heard it on tracks like back off bitch to as high as we've heard it on the blues...not that those serve as a floor and ceiling, but just for point of reference.

I would say a three at best.  Four octave range is pretty rare.  At my most vocally in shape, I'm in the 2.5 to 3 range.

I?d say about 3. No way 4.

Of course, just out of my ass...

Anyway, I read that Freddie Mercury?s was about 3.5, and there?s no way Axl is over Freddie, at least when it comes to range.

'Absolutely'

basically its 4... maybe slightly less. The highest note he's ever hit is a high high F (last note perfect crime, and the highest note in TWAT). And off the top of my head I can't think of the lowest note i've heard him hit but its probably a or g below middle c. So not quite 4 octaves but pretty damn close.

God, when he sang Sailing at the acoustic I though it couldn't get any higher than that...

It's pretty high, I have no idea how you measure it but I can tell you for sure that it's pretty high...

Just for a point of reference, as far as octave ranges go, singers like Maria Carey and Cyndi Lauper , boith have 4 octave ranges, thats tremedous, Id say axl is between 2.5- 3.. And you also have to look at whee the bottom starts, for each.

omg... 8 octave is rediculous!

I have created a small mp3 file containing notes to make up 8 octaves...

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DTRRTO5N

listen to that... do you REALLY still think he can do 8?

Im not sure why people  have a hard time thinking axl has a high octave range.
Listen to its so easy then riyadh or move to the city. He is up there

I don't really understand why you keep on posting those high numbers when you've posted the article about mariah carey as well (
http://popdirt.com/print31997.html). Remember: it said she used to be in the guinness book of world records with 5 octaves, but isn't any more. Thus, logically speaking Axl can't have an 8 octave range, he can't even have a 5 octave range.

Quote from: D? on October 02, 2004, 05:16:33 PM
now counting falsetto it is possible to have a many octave range, but regular voice its not

Falsetto isn't supposed to be counted. Other than that, most singers using their head voice don't actually produce higher pitched notes, the frequency remains the same, the voicing is just 'finer'.
