Other big names with a 5-octave range are Shanice, Prince and Kyo, plus jazz singer Rachelle Ferrell. Can anyone sing 5 octaves? Can anyone sing all octaves? This is Tim Storms, a singer in possession of an incredible 10 octaves!!!
Watch this astounding video to see what he can do. Mariah Carey With her 5-octave vocal range and her ability to reach notes in the 7th octave vocal range as well just go back, it should come as no surprise that Mariah is the top.
As you have probably already noticed there are only two singers which are definitely 6-octave range singers, Dimash Kudaibergen and Mike Patton. Now Mike Patton tops the list with his massive, six-octave range. The Faith No More, Mr.
Bungle, Tomahawk, etc. There are two singers with a 6-octave range in the world currently, Dimash Kudaibergen and Mike Patton. Some people claim that Axl Rose also has a 6-octave range although the truth is that his octave range is only 5. And it sounds sung because she does a bit of a trill on it. It's right near the end, they put a "A6-G 6" caption up before it. Just wondering if I could grab your thoughts, DD x.
It sounded like her voice was fraying, almost as if she was congested. She was sick, and was just kind of squeaking. There's a couple incidents of Whitney being sick and "hitting" notes in the 6th octave. I don't know. I get where you're coming from, but I can do that with my voice, and I just know its not the proper technique.
She seems to control it, like I said, with a bit of a trill on it, so I get the feeling its intentional. Correction again, Whitney Houston is a Falcon. It lacks the high notes of a true soprano and the lower notes of a Mezzo.
Gosh this is very interesting. I dont know much of voice types but now i know. I have more power in my head voice rather in chest. I have to admit that her head voice is much thicker than mine. So what is my range if you can answer my question? Oh and my longest note in chest voice is about secs and in head voice secs. Plz help me guys. Around her voice began to change from drugs but it wasn't until when you could tell.
Example: Her live performance of Why does it Hurt so bad. The later 90's lowered her voice even more. She was always a Mezzo with a very pure and misleading head voice. I love her so much. Whitney never was shrill, even when she was belting F5 or G5. She almost doesn't thinned out, her voice was as rich and ringing in high belts as it was in medium notes.
Oh, Whitney was shrill. Heartbreak Hotel. Listen to the part where she goes "Why'd you do it. You can't just judge talent like that.
Provide proof. Back your claims. Definitely a mezzo. She might have still been a passable soprano on the very first album as her voice hadn't matured yet but her voice was thicker and weighty in later albums, chest belts were extremely powerful and her peak resonance was also in the chest register.
Mezzo hallmarks. She has such magnificent F5s and E5s in her good days before smoking took effect. She even hit a G5 at the New Hope Baptist. When she sings, her strongest part of her voice would be the belting voice or chest voice. I have never heard her head voice, which is weird considering Whitney's abilities. More like a mezzo-soprano and unusually very bright chest voice with lots of emotion. Dark and almost hoarse under voice below the chest voice and her low notes are very dark, and emotional.
Voice has quality and such characteristics that you can identify it as her own in any recording. Maybe one of the best voices standing next to Whitney and the other great singers. She is very under-rated and believe me if you watch this, you'll see her brilliance shine! Whitney is a coloratura mezzo-soprano with a big voice. Her voice is very unique and I've never heard another singer with a tone quality as similar to hers. This voice was indeed a worldwide treasure.
In my opinion, she was so much better than all of them. Although they influenced her, she proved herself to be a beautiful voice. There will never be another Whitney Houston. We all love you Whitney. My family all the time say that I am killing my time here at net, however I know I am getting experience everyday by reading such fastidious content. My page : www. My web page shopping online. I for all time emailed this blog post page to all my friends, since if like to read it then my contacts will too.
Feel free to surf my webpage After checking out a few of the blog posts on your blog, I honestly like your way of writing a blog. I saved as a favorite it to my bookmark website list and will be checking back in the near future. Please visit my website as well and tell me your opinion. My page : burntorange. I am sure this paragraph has touched all the internet visitors, its really really good piece of writing on building up new weblog.
Have a look at my blog :: abercrombie clothing. Thank you for the good writeup. It in fact was a amusement account it. Look advanced to more added agreeable from you! However, how can we communicate? Ahaa, its fastidious conversation concerning this post at this place at this website, I have read all that, so now me also commenting at this place. My website - quit smoking effects. Whitney has a thick, plush, and spicy tone to her voice. This entire website is bullshit.
Listen to her cover of "The Greatest Love of Alive" Live in at the Arista Anniversary, her longest note definitely goes beyond 9 seconds you idiot.
Foolish people writing articles that know nothing about music! What a joke! Well then, bye bye. Best of luck setting up your own site. You are going to need it if your comment is anything to go by.
You couldn't even tell us how long it IS. All your incredible knowlege manages to produce is ''deinitely goes beyond 9 seonds'. Hope you'll also use a bit more imaginative language when writing articles than in above comment. And I agree that what your saying is highly possible. Lol maybe both Celine and Whitney were inspired by the same people?
I know Celine mentioned Aretha and Streisand as influences. I would definitely put money on Whitney also having been influenced by Aretha. I'm sure during their simultanuous careers they took note of eachother. But personally I don't hear anything in Celine's style which would have come from Whitney in particular rather than from a shared influence.
I know Celine said she was influenced by Whitney but frankly I don't put much stock in obit statements. She only named Whitney in an obituary moment. Streisand she named early on and when working with her. And like I said, I hear nothing particular to Whitney and nobody else in Celine.
I would disaggree, I honestly believe whitney influenced maybe not a great deal but some. And I have always thought celine was Barbra-esque. There's a difference between being able to imitate someone,showing someone respect and being influenced by someone.
I simply do not hear anything of Whitney in Celine's style. Because seriously? That video really makes my point And personally I say ''thank heavens''. But hey I'm fine with that. And her voice was unmistakeably Whitney. She still had it, even though it was compromised.
She made the best of it and sounded great. God rest her soul. Why don't you try and find some compassion in that black hole in your chest?
Whitney was only human and she made a poor choice. She only hurt herself with her drug habit; she never encouraged anyone else to do drugs.
She gave more good to the world than she gave to herself. If you can't register that, you have no soul. Or a sister. Or a daughter. Way to gloss over reality dude! Just go on pretending she didn't hurt anyone but herself. Yes, I think we are looking at influence two different ways you are looking for technique wise I am talking more mannerism wise.
Erm, no. The only singer I can think of whose voice sounds any similar to Whitney's in the mid-range anyway is Jennifer Hudson. That's mainly because her vocal decline was in full-force. She could belt well up to about F5 up until about The Preacher's Wife, but being more of a mezzo it was understandable that her belts wouldn't be as powerful. Vocal negative: While her belts were rich and full, they were sung with a high larynx and this poor technique aided her decline after The Bodyguard Tour, along with the development of her nodules.
She was also shrill closer to her debut as well. The notes sound very forced and shrill. I have, in the past, described them as sounding like squeals. Guess you in all your cynicism don't know how to mind your own business. The tone of your post tells me that you are trying to assuage your own demons.
I've never had a drug addicted family member, thankfully. Have you? Is that how you know for sure what it's like to have one? All I know is that Whitney gave her daughter love while she made bad personal choices. Logically, she should not have had children given her propensity to abuse substances, but a heavy religious background will fill your head with the compulsion to do so. In any event, her personal life was hers, yours is yours, and mine is mine.
All that concerns me is the good she gave to the world while she could do it. You are not God and you have no right to judge, or to criticize those who actually have compassion. Methinks you doth protest too much. First off Anything posted is everybody's ''business'. Second off I find it quite hilarious how you are accusing other people , who's comment btw by your own standards was not only ''not your business'' but also almost a year old, of ''lack of compassion'' yet now here you are.
Posting a comment suggesting that the only reason I am able to understand the reality of what drug addiction does to relationships of any kind would be having family members who had such an addiction. And with a 'tone'' which suggests I should somehow be ashamed of that.
Well, truth is But I have seen people talk who had, I've seen documentaries on drug addiction, I read and I have a working brain.
I have also seen junkies. Clearly you have not. Or you would know how exactly how much ''love'' and care they are capable of. Fact is dear, you are being a big hypocrite. No doubt because you are a Stan for Whitney. And I guess I am speaking to that ''god'' you claim is the only one allowed to judge? Excuse me while I go inform the deluded religious masses their ''god'' has spoken Rejoice all ye sheep!!!
Opie, your rudeness is the weak person's imitation of strength. It speaks more about your own character than mine. Your post has degenerated into an ad hominem attack, which is the last refuge of someone lacking any logic or argument. You attacked me personally instead of addressing the issue at hand. Nobody gets as defensive as you are unless they are hiding from something of which they are vaguely aware. Just who do you think you are to question my grasp on reality when your own perception of reality is so tainted with hatred and judgment?
This may be an open blog, but we are subject to basic rules of decency and courtesy. That is what I was pointing out to the first poster. Why should the fact that I was responding to a year-old post bother you? You think I have nothing better to do with my life than to visit this site whenever I feel like it? As I said, mind your own business about Whitney's personal life that is what I was referring to with the "mind your business" reference.
She was an imperfect human being who made poor choices and was unable to overcome them. The past is past and no amount of judgment on your part will undo it. What can be done is for us and everyone else to learn from the past so it is not repeated.
Have you no heart? That's the only explanation as to why you weren't touched by the uplifting emotions she expressed.
She also inspired a lot of people vocally, myself included. Fact is, I've never seen firsthand what damage a junkie can do to their family. I have seen what cigarette addiction can do, having lost several relatives to smoking-related cancers. Frankly, if I don't know the person, as I did not personally know Whitney, then it's none of my business. All that concerns me here is the fact that Whitney gave so much good to the world with her gift. You act as though junkies have nothing redeemable whatsoever.
Were you living in a cave for the last twenty-eight years? Now who's being judgmental and hypocritical? Try practicing some compassion. You'd be surprised at how much lighter you will feel. If you weren't so afraid of your own life, you might be a lot happier. Right now, you're being hysterical and self-righteously sanctimonious. You're attacking me because you fear what's inside yourself: hypocrisy. Hey Opie, I resent the 'sheep' comment.
I'm a lamb, remember? That's not a vocal negative so much as a technical negative. And the 'high larynx superstition has become highly disputed. Lol stan, you are a joke. This whole thing started because you responded to a blindingly obvious almost a year old troll comment with a utterly personal attack.
You really are determined to go for that title of Hypocrite of the Year it seems. Trying to, equally obviously, turn reality upside down isn't going to disqualify you for the title. I am far from hysterical. I am being rational about what heavy drug use does to an addict and her relationships with the people around them.
You however are trying to deny real facts. Because really dude? As for your question who now is judgemental and hypocritical? The answer is still ''You are!
Hahaha I remember. But I also remember you are agnostic about that 'god'' stuff. I wouldn't think you to be a sheep who thinks Hypocritespirit here is actually "god''?
Nopie, Opie. You are the hypocrite. You're judging me for pointing out a person's lack of compassion and then you're calling me names.
And the fact that you are so obsessed with the word "hypocrite" tells me that you doth protest too much. Like I said, you're attacking me because I remind you of your own demons.
Your argument is nothing but an ad hominem attack with nothing meaningful. Right now, you are indeed being hysterical; heaping hysteria upon hysteria, as it appears. You're taking this way too seriously. I was trying to remind people to show compassion to another human being.
And what are you doing? Name calling and personally attacking me. You're not part of the solution; you're part of the problem. Whitney never hurt any of her fans and none of us knew her personally. What she did in her personal life is none of my business. What matters to me is the gifts she gave to the world with her exceptional talent and compassion.
She treated us better than she treated herself, which is unfortunate, but it is what it is. And since she is no longer with us, that's the best way to remember her by. So let her rest in peace. Your nihilistic cynicism is quite disturbing. Are you really that miserable? And incidentally, my name is not Stan. Stan I know that is likely not your name. It's descriptive , your entire reply is in fact what you accuse me of doing.
An personal attack, ignoring the issue and any argument brought forth. As have been all your replies. That is why I use the word hypocrite as well. Not 'calling you names'' but describing your comments. But you are obviously as blind to the reality of what you are doing in your own comments as you are to the realities of what drug addiction does.
So, guess I will just leave you to both delusions. You have a nice day now. Can we please take off the pre-drugs snide remark? I find that to be incredibly insulting to her legacy, considering the fact that none of us can pinpoint when it 'truly' started.
With new admission from her brother, she was doing drugs in the 80's, the same time her voice was considered at its ultimate. So, in that case, there is no pre-drugs, and that remark is just an attack on her legacy.
Hey, this was written before whitney's untimely passing, but I kept the title as I planned to do an "after drugs" profile. However, I've gone off the idea, so will be rectifying the title today.
I think that is good because most of your profiles show the voice as it has changed over the years perhaps you could include it in this profile. Then you need to get some ears. There's nothing "shrill" about it. Her voice had tons of treble.
That's what you're hearing. Not shrillness. The vocal profiles on this site are dreadfully inaccurate. Does the person or people who make these actually study voice? You need some lessons in etiquette. What does shrill mean? A quick search on google comes up with a "high and piercing sound" and a "thin and whiny sound". Both of these can work as descriptors for Whitney's uppermost belts. Another male pop singer with a great range 4 octaves whose name you may not instantly recognise is Brendan Urie, the lead singer of Panic!
At the Disco. Her range deepened some while she was pregnant. The French Canadian diva Celine Dion has a beautiful resonant belt across 3-octaves with a lovely lower range.
A lyric soprano, she has excellent skills in modulation changing and adjusting your voice — like jumping a key, or dropping to a whisper. This helps create a dramatic sound that suits her Las Vegas residency. So you have plenty of room for development. Over time you should be able to gain at least another octave. Focus on quality not quantity though.
Some of the singers mentioned in this article can vocalise twice as many notes than are usually available in the vocal register. But of course, famous and professional singers can cover more octaves. The voice is flexible and vocal range increases with practice — something these guys are doing constantly. Ask your singing teacher what your vocal range is, or do a vocal range test. Or you can play through a scale to find out where your voice is comfortable, noting as you go.
You can also use tech to help you. There are apps to measure your pitch and range. For more information on discovering and improving your vocal range, check out this article.
If during these tests you discover you have a range of four octaves or more, make sure to find songs that showcase all the notes you can sing. Producers, songwriters and labels are always keen to find singers with this kind of capability, so provided you have good tone, technique and performance style, you may be a step ahead of the rest.
And by writing your own music you can ensure you sing notes that really suit you and show off your vocal ability. Having a huge vocal range is a bit like being super fit, or flexible. You have to keep doing it to retain it.
Three and above is considered good. Add some falsetto, whistle and vocal fry to your technique and you should be able to add an octave to your range, whatever your starting point. The singer with the best vocal range is Tim Storms from Tulsa, Oklahoma. He hits notes so low only animals the size of elephants can hear them. As a professional singer, you may be asked what your range is.
