In Reply to: Three octaves? LOL posted by budget fi on September 7, 2014 at 06:30:59:
Being able to sing octaves doesn't mean you're a better singer. Mariah Carey has 5+ octaves but I'd personally much rather listen to Madonna even though arguably Carey is the better all around singer. There's an X factor there which is why Madonna sells more than anyone else and she's done it for 30+ years.E Stat - Yes she had vocal training before and probably during Evita - although I actually preferred her voice Pre-Evita where she had a rawer lighter breezier sound. For example "This Used to be My Playground" one of my favorites from Madonna (and five years before Auto Tune was invented).

Gaga has been classically trained although it would be interesting to see if Bennett makes some improvements. She did say she has learned a lot from him.
Budget fi - this site analyzes many of today's female singers and their vocal range with strengths and weaknesses. It appears Madonna does indeed have a solid 3 octave range (a bigger range in fact than Adele).Gaga's range is 4 octaves and 1 note according to the link below (how accurate it is - well they show the youtubes of the parts in various songs noting the notes). You have to scroll down for the update because the top says 2.7 octaves http://www.divadevotee.com/2010/10/lady-gaga-vocal-profile.html
I think a lot of the judgements come from whether people "like" the person behind the microphone or not and whether the type of music they sing is their cup of tea or not.
Everyone was in love with the Dixie Chicks and they made a few political comments and CD's were in bonfires. A view of an artist can change in a New York Minute (Thanks Mr. Henley).
Here is Madonn'a vocal range
