The top ten:

Christina Aguilera - 4 octaves, 1/2 note
David Bowie - 4 octaves, 1/2 note
Paul McCartney - 4 octaves
Thom Yorke - 4 octaves

The complete list http://www.concerthotels.com/worlds-greatest-vocal-ranges

The problem with that list is that it only takes into account singers mentioned on Rolling Stone's Top 100 singers list. Vintage Vinyl retested this with a greater pool of singers and determined Axl Rose was only 5th. The other 4 were

4) David Lee Roth: 5 Octaves 3 Notes
3) Diamanda Galas: 5 Octaves 4-1/2 Notes
2) Corey Taylor: 5 Octaves 5-1/2 Notes
1) Mike Patton: 6 Octaves 1/2 Note

Floor Jansen hands down is the most versatile there is.

Opera, Power Metal, Blues, Growls...Which do you want??? Dramatic Soprano FTW!
The only problem that sucks is until the Nightwish DVD all quality of her in videos was crap. CD is decent. Even when it's good Dramatics are a lot more powerful than what average speakers and headphones are made to handle and it leads to a crap tone of vocal fading even on many expensive pairs. Because they are advertised as quality, but really made for pop vocals and to emphasize bass.

.....OF course...I cant post links...lovely.........

Look up ReVamp Misery's no crime live @ mezz breda.

ReVamp Wild Card live at bibelot

Check out the 2013 live Romanticide from the Nightwish DVD. Those live belts after being on stage for an hour are so powerful and incredible.

And an outstanding classic. Search for After Forever Dreamflight. "dreamflight live.mp4" uploaded by darkangels6sic6.

Roger Waters, especially on The Wall.

Damon Albarn. Distinct, but very versatile.

PJ Harvey. Maybe it's just changed a lot throughout her career, but it suits everything.

Karin Dreijer Andersson. Oh my goodness, is this even a question. Sometimes it's impish, sometimes it's aggressive, sometimes it's androgynous, or sometimes it's some combination of any mood.

Win Butler. He's lost a lot of fire it seems, but his voice goes all over the place.

This one was unexpected. Glad you like Zero 7 😄

Antony Hegarty is my favorite singer of all time. He can sing songs about his loneliness, then sing about fist, SM and transsexualism and right after that songs about his love for his family, and sound awesome and sincere in every single one of them. Also, he can sing disco.

1. Jack White. While listening to Elephant, I was surprised at how Jack could sing country, blues, rock, punk, and more, and sound great every time.
2. Chris Cornell. Sometimes his voice is low pitched, sometimes high pitched, sometimes old, sometimes young.
3. Robert Plant. I think this goes without saying.
4. Sia. Sia Furler of Zero 7 and her solo career have proven time and again to be amazing. Sometimes her voice can be beautiful like in Lentil, or just rockin' in many Zero 7 songs. I gotta get to their albums.
