So the pop queen is getting away from the "fans who brung her" and is coming out with a Duets album with Tony Bennett called "Cheek to Cheek" as Tony was impressed by her vocals and interpretive ability. She also took noted that there will be "No autotune. No tricks. Pure jazz." Some pretty high praise from Tony here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47R_yoirN84 What I would like to see regardless of your bent on Lady Gaga is an uptick in the era's music brought back to the mainstream. |

Omigod.., it looks like she's crying..., posted on September 7, 2014 at 10:49:46 | |
... a heart-wrenching performance! Somehow she reminds me of Barbara Streisand. Maybe it's the size of her nose? |

although I actually preferred her voice Pre-Evita where she had a rawer lighter breezier sound. To each his own. As for me, I prefer her latter work from Ray of Light On the other hand, singers like Carey haven't tried to mimic Madonna's formula. Gaga's range is 4 octaves Not according to the same source you used for Madonna found here. I'll edit to your edit. Note the qualifying in that comment. That supposition is not supported elsewhere either. As for serious range and control, one of my favorites from high school days is Annie Haslam from the British band Renaissance who has a five octave voice. She can hold a stratospheric note forever...
