I'm not a huge fan of her's, but I gotta hand it to her - the woman can sing the hell out of a song. I can respect that.

Singers from earlier times with unusual abilities or sounds. Not really fitting, but heck I shouldn't even really be here.


Mado Robin sings Bb over high C!!! - YouTube - High voice


Yma Sumac - Tumpa - YouTube - Goes from a Satchmo to Soprano type sound.


FREDDY, BESAME MUCHO..wmv - YouTube - One of the lowest female voices I've heard, besides maybe Lisa Gerrard, I believe she died before even the phase vocoder was invented.

One of The Queens of Gospel. Gospel based music and singers tend to have the most powerful singing voices.
