Aguilera, a spinto soprano, known for her prominent singing style, strong vocals, powerful voice and ability to sing in the whistle register, has rivaled many of her other contemporaries and has been referred to as the "voice of her generation." In the MTV special All Eyes on Christina, John Norris said that Aguilera "has a four-octave vocal range." Aguilera also topped COVE's list of the 100 Best Pop Vocalists with a score of 50 and came fifth in MTV's 22 Greatest Voices in Music. A review in an Entertainment Weekly article mentions her "tackling that dog-whistle high note" at the 3:20 mark in the song "Soar" from her album Stripped. Additionally, Axl Rose (of Guns N' Roses fame) has described Aguilera as "one of the greatest vocalists of our time."
