Lisa is a vocal genius and a beautiful person! She did bgv for Luther and The Rolling Stones. And she is still singing gigs and touring. I recommended her. Same with Glennis Grace.

This is a valuable comment. I gravitated towards The Stones on that list because they're my favourite band, and I also know nothing by Luther Vandross, not one song! Guess I need to rectify that? If you can recommend a performance of his with a good Lisa vocal, I'll happily check it out!
@@bridgethegapreactionsnot sure which ones she did with him, but A House is Not a Home, Evergreen, The impossible Dream and Endless Love with Mariah Carey are all incredible
@@bridgethegapreactions "Give Me The Reason" by Luther is a fine example of his use of Lisa's special whistle note talents. Luther also had the great Ava Cherry alongside Lisa as his back up singer. Other great songs by the velvet smooth Luther are "The Glow Of Love", "Dance With My Father", "Never Too Much", "Here And Now", his live version of "A House Is Not A Home", and his version of "Superstar", all big hits for him.
She's underrated because she had a very brief solo career and after only one solo album, she decided she'd rather go back to being a backup singer which makes no sense with her talent.
She is one of the BEST singers ever in life. She sang backup for Luther Vandross and released only 1 album. After she went on to sing backup for Tina Turner, the rolling stones, chaka khan and Prince
This came out in the 90’s I believe, she was a back up singer for Luther Vandross, The Rolling Stones and many more. She won a Grammy for this song. I love this performance have seen it many times❤️
She did backup singing for the Rolling Stones, Sting, Luther Vandross, Tina Turner, ect before going on her own solo. Lisa Fisher is a BEAST. OMG, she bad azzed to the bone!!!
This is the short version where she left out the second verse. So in this clip, it’s verse 1 and she went right into the bridge. If you want the whole thing, you gotta check her album version.
She’s a brilliant vocalist. She one of the featured artist in a 2013 documentary about background singers called “20 feet from stardom” she also had a follow up single called “save me” which is an uptempo number that is also great. You also must check out the video & studio version of “how can I ease the pain” goose bumps!!
@@bridgethegapreactions ....get ready for the documentary....20 FEET FROM STARDOM...it's very powerful....the culture and subtext of black women....mostly from a gospel singing background....singing background for mostly white men....who were...and still are trying to sound....black....or at least....soulful and hip...and the white run music industry pulling the strings of it all....LISA is the jewel of the documentary because everyone in the industry and culture knows who and what she is....and what she can do...and while everyone in the business is selling their souls to be a STAR....she gets everything that anyone could ask out of the business...to be ultimately content....just being a STAR....in the background....and everyone knows...she is the BEST....to ever open up her mouth to sing....
Ms. Lisa is absolutely fabulous. She won a Grammy for this album. She is still performing. Her background singers are top level - Phil Perry is one. Phil should also be explored. If you check him out, "Is It You " is the song to start with.
I can’t watch this right now because I’m DJing, but I’m so happy that you’ve chosen this respond to because it is an absolute masterclass of vocals, stage presence, technique.. the lot basically. She is so so so underrated. Did BVs for Luther for years before and after this and you know he didn’t stand for anyone not exceptional. This performance is just exceptionally insanely good x
You need to hear "Lean On Me", by Melba Moore. Full of surprises. Listen from start to finish. Amazing! Trust me. 👍🏻 I first heard Lisa Fischer on Star Search, in the late 80s. I went out and looked for her album. I've had it ever since.
Such a phenomenal singer. Luther wrote this for her. She also sang with Luther on a iconic iconic song, called 'Searching' back in the day!! She's blessed indeed.
What an incredible fantastic singer. The EMOTION she puts into this song, OMG. WOW. That tear drop in her vocal cord, AMAZING. She makes you feel the pain that a relationship can bring. 😢😮🙏
Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 They are a WORLD favorite. Mick has rocked that mic and stage in his amazingly unique way for decades now with the exact same energy!!! My mom played Rolling Stones music throughout my childhood! The Rolling Stones also did one of the top 3 Superbowl halftime EVER!!!!!!
You need to check out Betty Wright singing "No Pain No Gain" (Live version) and check out her high whistle notes along with the late Phyllis Hyman singing "Living All Alone" (Best female singer in last 55 years)
For some reason they decided to edit this performance. I haven't looked very hard but at least on the surface it seems the whole performance isn't listed anywhere. The video cuts the actual second verse and first chorus and it goes from the first verse to the second chorus directly, then bridge, last chorus, and outro. It's an amazing song. If only Lisa hadn't decided she didn't want the spotlight like she did, she'd probably have been one of the most well known artists in the 90s. She was nominated for two Grammys and won one of them with this song, and it was her debut. She could've done anything she wanted with her career, but she simply didn't want to go solo and decided to continue with her career as it had been until then. Huge loss for us listeners but I do have great respect for her for making a difficult choice and sticking to it still even though there were probably a ton of people tryna get her to do one thing or another.
Lisa Ficher ainda esta viva ,porque ninguém faz uma homenagem aos bons cantores que ainda vivem ,adoro a voz dela ,seja lá como esta agora ,uma entrevista com ela já valeu ok ? ☝😘❤
She is on that level❤️ vocally she can rival Mariah Carey unfortunately or by choice her career went the opposite track of Whitney, Mariah, Celine🔥👋 credentials indeed this woman got that divine vocal❤️
Lisa was the one who decided that she didn't want to record another solo album because of her fondness for backing vocalist rather than a solo artist. Sounds like insecurities. Some people are just more comfortable being in the background rather in the lead. Which makes no sense to me. Most singers would die for that opportunity and blessing.
@@ChrisC709 She made the right decision. The industry, especially Hollywood, is actually cruel to the people inside it. They are literally 'the slave" (referring to Prince's famous tattoo)..
vocally they are different because they are diiferent voice type lisa is a soprano same with patti labelle...whitney,mariah and celine are all mezzos...listen to this song especially the recording version and lisa another performance of this song...this song sits at the soprano tessitura especially at the bridge lisa sing at the E5,F5 and G5 and she is not coming down... and from the G5 she she does an octave leap to G6 with pure headvoice...she can do them easily because she is a soprano this is where her voice shines more and sound the best
I wondered what happened to Lisa Fischer, until she stumbled on her in the excellent documentary about backing/session singers 'Twenty Feet from Stardom'.
omg i have this grammy album such a great song 1 album only she was background for The Rollinstones and Tina Turner and Luther Vandross another video was up beat " Save Me " Thank u ❤❤❤❤❤
She is brilliant. Check out the stuff she is doing now. She is using her voice even more as an instrument. The live tribute to Nina Simone is a great live show to see. I got to see her a couple months ago ❤
Had this cd when it first came out!She is an absolutely brilliant singer!!This debut CD has amazing songs!!I still and will always listen to her regularly
My god in heaven what or who did I just listen to???? My parents sheltered me way too much..❤ Does she have other songs similar to this one? I would love to hear Mariah Carey remake this.....
Oh yes. The killer high note.. but I love the video as its seductive and mesmerising her eyes and expressions omg. Different sound and sounds amazing she can break glass with her voice ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ahhh Lisa Fischer is juuust incredible and so underrated. She was a backing vocalist for years and still is i think? Her solo stuff didnt take off accept for this track but there are some great tracks on that album. I love Save Me. Also she sings the solo feature on gimme shelter by the stones. Some of the live performances of that are legendary. Oh wait you are now reacting to this as im typing this hahaha. So epic! That track is 🔥🔥
"...her solo stuff didn't take off..."? She won a Grammy for this song! She intentionally chose to sing bgv for many famous artists instead of being a solo artist. She currently performs regulalry with Grand Baton, Taylor Eigsti and is currently touring w/ Ranky Tanky.
No she won a Grammy for this she didn't want to be a solo singer Luther Vandross basically convinced her to do an album which gave us this master piece then she went back to back up singing by choice for the rolling stones, Luther Vandross Patti labell and many many more groups she is one of the highest held regarded back up singers and she still singing at concerts today and has a group she sings with. Watch 20ft from stardom she wasn't comfortable front and center on stage as a solo artist I don't Blame her with the hell the music industry gives black female vocalist pitting them against each other plus she persevere her voice and still reaches up hitting high tones at 63 which is crazy
I mean this young lady's voice is almost like a Picasso being painted I mean every stroke every paint color the mixture I mean this young lady when she get through I promise you it's just a remarkable how one person could be blessed with such gifts against me on our imagination and this is not Auto tone or whatever that is this is natural
You have to listen to the Peruvian singer Yma Sumac (1922-2008) 5 octaves without falsetto) Mi2-Mi7. The most popular songs are: Taita Inti, Chuncho (triple coloratura), Tumpa and the harmonization with a flute.
ok so i commented earlier when i hadn't listened to your review, and first of all i'm so glad you got it and loved it, it's really otherworldly! and you also need to react to the studio version, as it has an whole extra verse, and is more - hard to think of the word - sensual? the video is brilliant as well, so much charisma coming out of the screen. She really only had one album, which this track was on, and was a number one hit on the r&b chart, and its a good album, but this is far and away better than anything else on it. Sorry for rambling! Hope this helps anyway
She's very well known in the industry as a backing vocalist; since the 80s. She's only released one album. It's a shame she's never got fame, not even a real one hot wonder, because she's phenomenal. Her one and single album is great!! Interesting fact: when she was young she didn't have any lows, even her mid notes (a3- d4) were very weak, and now she has phenomenal resonance and power on a2 live!!!! While keeping all her highs!!! She's a vocal miracle who has the longevity!!! I love her to no end!!!❤❤❤ She's fantastic!!!👏 👏👏❤❤❤❤❤
She chose to remain a one hit wonder and didn’t want a big career. She won a Grammy for this song and then went back to being one of the top background singers in the industy
I have not seen you do any groups at all on your podcast it always be a solo artist is that all you do is solo artist or do you do all music cuz I would like for you to do a reaction on the group Ray Goodman and Brown
I would like for you to do a reaction of Angela Winbush I don't care if it's smile or Angel and see which one of them have the best control then I'll be listening for it on your reaction
I think I requested you to listen to some Angela Winbush it can either leave Smiles or one of her upbeat but if there was a concert and she and Angela Winbush was the headliners would you come 1:14
She could have been ultra famous if she wanted to, but she was uncomfortable with the spotlight on herself. She has toured and song background for the likes of Luther Vandross, the Rolling Stones, Tina Turner. She only put the one Solo album " So Intense " Encouraged by Luther to do so. She won the Grammy for the song you just heard. She's still performing to this day. Unless you react to the rest of the songs on the album, that's all you are getting from her. Dare I say she's the best background singer ever.
I'm curious on who wrote the song is it hers or Luther wrote it or someone else wrote the song cuz whoever wrote it it was beautiful made out and everything and she performed it in the manner in which the song deserved
Lisa is so under rated. So much better and better vocal range than Mariah in my opinion. If you look for some of her stuff she has done even today, Vocals are even more beautiful. Her live performances always sound like a recording.... She can wreck any genre she tackles. Ridiculous....
I read that she was underrated but for her to have a Grammy something is wrong with that that her Grammy speaks for her herself itself I'm sorry not just because she has the voice and the control but you underrate her something is wrong with the music field because she has a Grammy to back up anything else that y'all talking about underrated all because she didn't want to be a solo artist y'all underrated her because of that shame on you same same same same on you
I believe that was head voice. I think she hit a whistle note in the studio version. Lisa had potential to be up there with the greats Whitney etc. After the release of this song and her first album, she quit. She said she didn’t enjoy being a solo act. She preferred being in the back.
Neither were whistle just super head voice. She was amazing, but they didn’t know how to market her. They tried to over sexualize her too and she is a lesbian who wasn’t comfortable with the spotlight.
She's not a one hit wonder she just doesn't wanna be in the spotlight she said that she is comfortable just being a backup singer..she can be up there with whitney,mariah and celine if she wants to but she decided not to...but to me she doesn't need to have a record to be call the greatest
I just heard the news did you know that Rolling Stones magazines has just released a list yesterday of the 200 best male or female singers of all time…….. and Céline Dion is not on that list? 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️it’s just indéfendable for them that’s all I’m gonna say about that shity magazine 🙄🤦♂️
@@eleeveeayees3425 I love Mariah,and I assure you Chante Moore and Lisa Fisher are more than a whistle note, they will hold their own against anyone,that's a bet I'm willing to take,any day.
Interesting footnote even though she was pretty much a one-hit wonder She never really charted again She had one song after this. She won a Grammy for best r&b performance she tied with Patti LaBelle. It's sad that the best voices don't always become the most famous. Arranged from those sultry lows to that whistle register is amazing I think she's a better version of Mariah Carey
I definitely thought of Mariah Carey when listening to this, but didn't know what to say about it. It does seem like everything Mariah gets (rightly) praised for could also apply to Lisa Fischer, and then some!
It’s not a whistle register and there’s a lot more to Mariah’s voice than that which is why she’s only behind the Beatles as far as number ones and charting success
@@strangerthings88 Yeah I can't understand why people just limit Mariah to a singer who is just known for her whistle register. It's very puzzling. Either they are just very ignorant to her discography or they just want to compare her to anyone else that does it to put her down. People stay hating instead of just focusing on each singer individually and their strengths and attributes.
@@ChrisC709 exactly.. Mariah has plenty of songs that are difficult and don't even use the whistle register, people must think she jumps on a song and talks for most of it, hit a whistle note then leave
What I love most is that she won a Grammy for this song and then Patti Labelle won a Grammy the same night for the song Lisa backed! The limelight isn't for everyone but with a voice that is still prominent after decades of touring, she'll be incredible the rest of her life

There's no better ❤❤❤❤❤
Great Reaction;I would like to recommend Anita Baker reactions I believe You will like Her ☺️
Que gran voz!!
ok so i commented earlier when i hadn't listened to your review, and first of all i'm so glad you got it and loved it, it's really otherworldly! and you also need to react to the studio version, as it has an whole extra verse, and is more - hard to think of the word - sensual? the video is brilliant as well, so much charisma coming out of the screen. She really only had one album, which this track was on, and was a number one hit on the r&b chart, and its a good album, but this is far and away better than anything else on it.
Sorry for rambling! Hope this helps anyway
Please react to Yma Sumac Chuncho or her duet with the flute.
I recognise that name from when I tried to get into 50s/60s "exotica" music years ago.I liked some of it, but might be more ready for it now!
The video version please sir to appreciate the song more❤❤❤
She's very well known in the industry as a backing vocalist; since the 80s. She's only released one album. It's a shame she's never got fame, not even a real one hot wonder, because she's phenomenal. Her one and single album is great!!
Interesting fact: when she was young she didn't have any lows, even her mid notes (a3- d4) were very weak, and now she has phenomenal resonance and power on a2 live!!!! While keeping all her highs!!! She's a vocal miracle who has the longevity!!! I love her to no end!!!❤❤❤ She's fantastic!!!👏 👏👏❤❤❤❤❤
Sad you just discovered her!Bet u didn’t know she sang and toured with Luther Vandross!!!Saw them live too!
I think you should listen to the original, too!
She chose to remain a one hit wonder and didn’t want a big career. She won a Grammy for this song and then went back to being one of the top background singers in the industy
Around the time, Luther was feuding with En Vogue.
I have not seen you do any groups at all on your podcast it always be a solo artist is that all you do is solo artist or do you do all music cuz I would like for you to do a reaction on the group Ray Goodman and Brown
I would like for you to do a reaction of Angela Winbush I don't care if it's smile or Angel and see which one of them have the best control then I'll be listening for it on your reaction
I think I requested you to listen to some Angela Winbush it can either leave Smiles or one of her upbeat but if there was a concert and she and Angela Winbush was the headliners would you come 1:14
She could have been ultra famous if she wanted to, but she was uncomfortable with the spotlight on herself. She has toured and song background for the likes of Luther Vandross, the Rolling Stones, Tina Turner. She only put the one Solo album " So Intense " Encouraged by Luther to do so. She won the Grammy for the song you just heard. She's still performing to this day. Unless you react to the rest of the songs on the album, that's all you are getting from her. Dare I say she's the best background singer ever.
No autotune here 😂😂😂
Do you know what’s crazy? Is it that bridge park? She did that in G
"King Osirus" Introducing: Clive Davis: ->The Original Whitney Houston. 'For Those Who Have Eyes To See. ->Great Observation and Reporting.
Who wrote that did Luther write that for her or what can somebody put it in the comments
I wonder who wrote the song did she write it or someone wrote it for her
worked with Luther and Chris Botti
I'm curious on who wrote the song is it hers or Luther wrote it or someone else wrote the song cuz whoever wrote it it was beautiful made out and everything and she performed it in the manner in which the song deserved

Lisa is so under rated. So much better and better vocal range than Mariah in my opinion. If you look for some of her stuff she has done even today, Vocals are even more beautiful. Her live performances always sound like a recording.... She can wreck any genre she tackles. Ridiculous....
She choose to stay in the background. So its not our decision on how her career went.
Thumbs up Luther vandross backup singer
It wasn’t a whistle not just super head voice
I read that she was underrated but for her to have a Grammy something is wrong with that that her Grammy speaks for her herself itself I'm sorry not just because she has the voice and the control but you underrate her something is wrong with the music field because she has a Grammy to back up anything else that y'all talking about underrated all because she didn't want to be a solo artist y'all underrated her because of that shame on you same same same same on you
I believe that was head voice. I think she hit a whistle note in the studio version.
Lisa had potential to be up there with the greats Whitney etc. After the release of this song and her first album, she quit. She said she didn’t enjoy being a solo act. She preferred being in the back.
Fair enough, the spotlight isn't for everyone!
Neither were whistle just super head voice. She was amazing, but they didn’t know how to market her. They tried to over sexualize her too and she is a lesbian who wasn’t comfortable with the spotlight.
Sadly...she's a one hit wonder...however this song made her an icon.
She's not a one hit wonder she just doesn't wanna be in the spotlight she said that she is comfortable just being a backup singer..she can be up there with whitney,mariah and celine if she wants to but she decided not to...but to me she doesn't need to have a record to be call the greatest
I just heard the news did you know that Rolling Stones magazines has just released a list yesterday of the 200 best male or female singers of all time…….. and Céline Dion is not on that list? 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️it’s just indéfendable for them that’s all I’m gonna say about that shity magazine 🙄🤦♂️
Miss Mariah got nothing over her and Chant'e Moore, they so sadly unrated.
It's not a competition. Y'all love disrespecting Mariah. Not her fault she's the standard
@@codywalsh2075 No Minnie Rippleton was the standard, look her up, no disrespect intended just facts.
@@everettknight9488 no
@@everettknight9488 Mariah is more than just whistle notes, her catalog is very diverse.
@@eleeveeayees3425 I love Mariah,and I assure you Chante Moore and Lisa Fisher are more than a whistle note, they will hold their own against anyone,that's a bet I'm willing to take,any day.
Interesting footnote even though she was pretty much a one-hit wonder She never really charted again She had one song after this.
She won a Grammy for best r&b performance she tied with Patti LaBelle.
It's sad that the best voices don't always become the most famous.
Arranged from those sultry lows to that whistle register is amazing I think she's a better version of Mariah Carey
I definitely thought of Mariah Carey when listening to this, but didn't know what to say about it. It does seem like everything Mariah gets (rightly) praised for could also apply to Lisa Fischer, and then some!
It’s not a whistle register and there’s a lot more to Mariah’s voice than that which is why she’s only behind the Beatles as far as number ones and charting success
@@strangerthings88 Yeah I can't understand why people just limit Mariah to a singer who is just known for her whistle register. It's very puzzling. Either they are just very ignorant to her discography or they just want to compare her to anyone else that does it to put her down. People stay hating instead of just focusing on each singer individually and their strengths and attributes.
@@ChrisC709 exactly
@@ChrisC709 exactly.. Mariah has plenty of songs that are difficult and don't even use the whistle register, people must think she jumps on a song and talks for most of it, hit a whistle note then leave
