One morning, long ago, I was walking down a street in the Melbourne Australian suburb of Prahran and heard the voice of of dreams. It was Lisa Gerrard, at home, and simply singing in her garden. It was not just enlightenment it was ethereal. I had no idea she was Australian and I stayed listening in the street for about 40 minutes, simply enthralled. That day Lisa Gerrard changed my life. Her music has been with me ever since.
OMG.....I've always loved your reactions but I did not expect that in my wildest dreams! Dead Can Dance (Lisa Gerrard and Brendan Perry) is one of the greatest bands I've ever came across. I've seen them in Montreal and Lisa sounds absolutely amazing live. I'm so happy you have found her.
I have been lucky enough to catch DCD live a few times and (first time when I was 18....some 30 years back) and me and my friends would refer to Lisa as 'Our haunting angel' That voice, that quality, that amount of goosebumbs she is able to give you....
Thank you for coming to Lisa Gerrard. I love her so much, the voice of heaven. I would like to suggest you more: - Now we are free - Redemption - on an ocean - vespers - Shadow Magnet - HAVASI - The Storm feat. Lisa Gerrard
*Such a glorious voice;* it sounds quite ethereal/otherworldly. ✨ Her resonance is unbelievable! So great to hear a Dramatic Contralto's immense power & icy vocals ❄
Absolutely a lyric voice. She just adds a lot of knodel to get that darkness. In general a pretty light and bright voice for a contralto if you remove the knodel.
@@mynameissurya19 actually shes a lower mezzo Voice because her Higher range Sounds nothing Like a Alto. Her Voice is Not heavy enough in the mid or Higher range.she Just have a great vocal technique and a Big range
8:21 the funny thing is that lisa gerrard's work is often used in movie soundtracks for this exact kind of feeling so it makes sense that you might've heard it before. whenever you get those sort of generic ancient anthropological songs and chants and stuff, it's usually lisa or someone inspired by her.
I am crying.. I love Lisa since long time but Sacrifice is one of those that always tear apart my heart. Thank you♥ Btw you should hear her speaking voice .. You wouldn't recognize her!!
A vocal phenomenon, but that's only part of it. Here is a lady who was really intensely adored by many guys from my generation... You mentioned Passion Of The Christ - she did actually contribute to the score of that movie (collaborating with Patrick Cassidy)
Now you have met half of Dead Can Dance and you are into her, I think you should review the Cocteau Twins.....Elizabeth Fraser has a voice to die for. Also...the power of 'le mystere des voix Bulgares' is so uncanny, but yet joyful and tear-raising. If you want to go down a darker path of ULTIMATE voice usage: Try Diamanda Galas......she is the queen of dual voiced singing and she is opera trained... Thank you ever so much for this video, because Dead Can Dance is one of my all time favorite bands!
Lisa Gerrard is an angel! Dead Can Dance is the best band of the Creation! Best live for me, i saw her solo and with Dead Cance, the best times of my life
I enjoyed that you expressed your reaction in terms of the feelings that you observed in yourself. All your adjectives were right on. Nice response this amazing voice.
I think you need to discover the history of Dead Can Dance, because with every album they have been exploring different music scenes...be it from medieval to Asian to African to Etherical. Her counterpart Brendan Perry has a very down to earth voice, while Lisa has this outer space voice...which compliment each other in a way I have never ever heard from any other musical band other than This Mortal Coil.....
A reaction to Lisa Gerrard, great! She's heavenly, infernal, saint, otherworldly, a real enchantress. Now you gotta react to the other great voice of 4AD label: Elizabeth Fraser 💙
This song should always be played alongside Dead Can Dance "The Host Of Seraphim" (that song has been in numerous movies - notably "The Mist") as you'll see how Lisa Gerrard can take you on a gut wrenching journey,one of the most haunting songs of all time,and she did it 10 years prior to this. One thing in the comments section,are all these people requesting songs from artists who are so far removed from this,unreal,and most of them are not in the same league as Lisa Gerrard,sorry about the little rant,just get annoyed with folks who don't appreciate greatness,just to request mediocre.
The reason you think of movies is because she has been used in many popular films and is in lots of soundtracks. Probably the most famous is "Now We Are Free' from the Gladiator soundtrack.
The emotion IS the language in this one anyway, etc.. & I'm W/ ya w/ this homie. Best of Melbourne Australia originally. & Dead Can Dance has been my favorite band since the late 80's.
Lisa has both a unique voice and the ability to color it immaculately. She really takes you into a journey in this one, you can seriously close your eyes and get transported. But at the same time, you cannot close your eyes when you see this, you are both pinned and mesmerized to the point of dumbfound-ness. This is art. A request. Try out Sohyang singing the ballad "Never-ending Story". You haven't seen that one, I think you are going to love this. vimeo.com/277849535 Cheers...C:
This is the second UA-cam "reaction" video to Lisa Gerrard's Sacrifice that I have seen. Both use one of the crappiest sources of the song available, with this one also played through poor sounding equipment. Please get a CD and some decent headphones or audio equipment and you will be even more amazed and impressed!
funny story, i watched 2 reactions. the other was almost condescending about Lisa, i pretty much disliked all of it. Lisa is to be honoured or worshiped, really. i had the pleasure- a dream come true- i seen her perform this year. it was a six hours drive there and back...but i could not let the opportunity slip by and not go. one of the best things in my life was to see this woman!
This is perfection. I'm sad because 90% of people have lost the sensitivity to listen to something other than the selfish beats and lyrics that the music market offers them.

@@gyqz You & I are just about exactly the same age I think. I too loved DCD back in the day.
man, i felt like she was singing the birth of a new galaxy or somethin! AMAZINGLY beautiful😍
Great description
It's like she is singing the sounds of the Earth.
Lisa sings the secret language of angels, a goddess from the stars...
Thank you for coming to Lisa Gerrard. I love her so much, the voice of heaven. I would like to suggest you more:
- Now we are free
- Redemption
- on an ocean
- vespers
- Shadow Magnet
- HAVASI - The Storm feat. Lisa Gerrard
Shadow Magnet is my favourite one....
You should react to "Sanvean" by Lisa Gerrard. It was the first time I heard her voice, and I cried for so long after hearing it.
I got you covered
Same!!
Sanvean and the host or seraphin make ne crie
Truth
Sanvean is beautiful.
Sacrifice is haunting
*Such a glorious voice;* it sounds quite ethereal/otherworldly. ✨
Her resonance is unbelievable!
So great to hear a Dramatic Contralto's immense power & icy vocals ❄
@Lordu Seems like she has a dramatic voice; in addition to the large volume output, I don't really hear warmth in her voice...
Absolutely a lyric voice. She just adds a lot of knodel to get that darkness. In general a pretty light and bright voice for a contralto if you remove the knodel.
@@KajiVocals So a Light Lyric Soprano?
Barbra & Whitney Not a soprano, no.
@@mynameissurya19 actually shes a lower mezzo Voice because her Higher range Sounds nothing Like a Alto. Her Voice is Not heavy enough in the mid or Higher range.she Just have a great vocal technique and a Big range
She did the entire Gladiator score. Best known for 'Now We Are Free'.
She is a true artist. Words couldn't express her emotions, so she invented a new language. Now that's true art.
She and her voice are out of this world. Deep, rich, transcendent. One and only Lisa Gerrard.
8:21 the funny thing is that lisa gerrard's work is often used in movie soundtracks for this exact kind of feeling so it makes sense that you might've heard it before. whenever you get those sort of generic ancient anthropological songs and chants and stuff, it's usually lisa or someone inspired by her.
She is a living legend. Mother nature channeling her emotions through her voice
She has incredible range but complete control over her voice,I agree with everything you said,haunting,sad,happy and ethereal.
I am crying.. I love Lisa since long time but Sacrifice is one of those that always tear apart my heart. Thank you♥
Btw you should hear her speaking voice .. You wouldn't recognize her!!
Amazing. I really appreciate the diversity of genres and styles you react to.
This is what I needed, to watch someone else appreciating this kind of art!.

Thank you ever so much for this video, because Dead Can Dance is one of my all time favorite bands!
She sings my favorite music to a movie, 'Gladiator'.
Love her voice!!!!
Lisa Gerrard is an angel! Dead Can Dance is the best band of the Creation! Best live for me, i saw her solo and with Dead Cance, the best times of my life
The fallen angel who can no longer fly stayed on this earth to sing the nostalgia of a lost paradise 🖤
There is no category that ive found that she would ever fit in...she will make you feel what she feels through with her voice....
Listen to her work with pianist Havasi in "The Storm." May be the most breathtaking song I have ever heard, and the video is just gorgeous.
I enjoyed that you expressed your reaction in terms of the feelings that you observed in yourself. All your adjectives were right on. Nice response this amazing voice.

It reminds you of movies because she's done countless soundtracks.like the gladiator, 300, black hawk down. the list goes on. even video games.
More lisa please! She is Amazing 👏😮
Lisa can break your soul in half without opening her mouth or sing actual lyrics
That was so beautifully interesting. I felt everything that you've described...
I have been drawn to her music since I was a child. She is magical! Lisa Gerrard is the female inspiration behind my music.
God help you if you react to DCD/Lisa Gerrard's video for Host of Seraphim. Bring a box of tissues.
Host of the seraphim - you Need to listen to that .. like NOW
Control of her voice is amazing
This song should always be played alongside Dead Can Dance "The Host Of Seraphim" (that song has been in numerous movies - notably "The Mist") as you'll see how Lisa Gerrard can take you on a gut wrenching journey,one of the most haunting songs of all time,and she did it 10 years prior to this.

Summoning of Muse guys

LISA!!!!!!! Dead Can Dance!!! WOW!!!!
If angels could sing, this would be the sound
She is incredable
Please react to VOCTAVE's Disney Love Medley... It's just voices, no instruments... You'll be amazed!
Dead Can Dance one of my all time favorite bands ever!
He totally couldn't handle it :D
Love her more than words can describe
Nicole Scherzinger’s song “Run” it REALLY showcases her vocal ability😭❤️
Lisa has some set of pipes. Amazing.
I love her. Check out her other solo stuff (song called ‘Space Weaver’) and her band Dead Can Dance (especially the dong song ‘Host of Seraphim’).
I am seeing them in Seattle in May. 2021. :-)
The emotion IS the language in this one anyway, etc.. & I'm W/ ya w/ this homie. Best of Melbourne Australia originally.
& Dead Can Dance has been my favorite band since the late 80's.
This Art, in the purest unsullied sense. (unlike the depreciating wide misuse of the word.)
Can you please react to Shirley Bassey singing The Living Tree live at the Royal Variety ?! Vocals are out of this world!🔥🙌
