The King of Pop has a tenor voice. His octaves went from F2 to F6. While Jackson’s voice was light and airy, his vocal intricacy was undeniable, especially in songs like “They Don’t Care About Us.” His voice had richness thanks to his distinctive grunts and exclamations, and his falsetto was warm and resonant.
Freddie Mercury, who could sing anywhere from a bass’ F2 to a soprano’s F6, will be remembered for the rest of his life. In a matter of seconds, Mercury could switch from a deep, resonant growl to a dazzling coloratura. It takes a great deal of technical prowess to sing “Bohemian Rhapsody.”
The vocalist of “Emotions” is well-known for her mastery of whistle notes. She can sing in five octaves, which is incredible. She can strike the F2 note at her lowest end on “Sweetheart,” and a G7 on “Emotions,” which is her highest recorded note. On Carey’s vocal characteristics, the jury is still out. Despite the fact that her lower register is just as amazing as her whistle notes, many vocal trainers believe she is a soprano.
