Seven? I don't think so.
Freddie Mercury had a range of 4 octaves. If Axl Rose had any more than a 2 octave range, I'll eat my shoe.

I know Cedric Bixler-Zavala has a 4 octave vocal range (o.k., some say 3 1/2) but he's amazing.
Freddie Mercury should probably fit in there somewhere.

7 octaves is pretty impossible. I don't think there's anyone who can. The most I know of is 5 octaves. The late Minnie Riperton could do 5 I know. You often hear of just 3 octave ranges though that people do.

I've heard rumors that singers like Axl Rose, Mariah Carey, and Yma Sumac have it.

Axel Rose is never in his Drug-Addicted-Life is going to sing a bit close to real singers and real musicians like Rik Emmett or Geddy Lee, that Rolling Stone magazine is just publicity, that's as much as you can expect from a US magazine, and even from American singers

Toni Tennille (of famed 'Captain & Tennille') has a 6 octave range and is also a 'contralto' (she does the deepest voice a woman can do and can reach the highest octave; as well as the one's in-between). Though you couldn't tell by her work on songs like 'Love Will Keep Us Together' or 'Muskrat Love' (LOL) you CAN hear her range all over Pink Floyd's The Wall album (she does ALL the female vocals and voices) and does the 'operatic voice' on a track from 'Dark Side Of The Moon'. Her husband, Captain (Daryll Dragon, ex-Beach Boys keyboardist) has a 4 octave range himself. Toni was the only female to ever be considered a 'Beach Boy' and is now doing operatic shows across the planet. :)

Mariah Carey self-identifies as "an alto with a five-octave range," Carey has "a range wide enough to cover all the octaves between an alto and a soprano and the agility to move between those roles with swiftness and aplomb", and her vocal trademark is her ability to sing in the whistle register.
Axl Rose is listed as a Baritone (B1-A5). If that's true that's an almost 4 octave range.
Yma Sumac was a coloratura soprano which means she had a range of approximately middle C (C4) to "high F" (F6).
Freddie Mercury was a Legiero Tenor F2-F5 (3 octaves); up to E6 in falsetto (which makes 3 7/8 in falsetto).
Michael (Milijenko) Matijevic is a High Tenor (E♭2-B5) which is 3 5/12 octaves full voice, without falsetto. He is from Steelheart and he is amazing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tR-5ZStR8r4
Geoff Tate from Queensryche has a pretty awesome range as well - High Baritone (A1-A5).

2 Octave vocal range is good. Professional singers such as Christina Aguila cover 3 Octaves. However with practice you can improve on your vocal range as well as singing techniques. Keep up the practise and you'll end up with an even better voice!

Seven octaves! Dang. Mariah Carey's is probably more like 5-6. (I know that's Whitney Houston's range) I don't know, sorry. I'd like to know though for the others. By the way, 7-8 octaves is a piano. So, wow if true.
