You must mean Minnie Ripperton and Whitney because Mariahs whistle register is not strong like Lisa’s or Minnie Ripperton.. Minnie was the best to ever do it!
@@Jamiesearchaccount First let's understand. Lisa does not use whistle notes but rather a high head voice. Second Mariah IMO could do far more with her whistle notes than Minnie, although Minnie had a few personal tricks she could do very well. Mariah also never uses her whistle notes as much as Minnie and often, even in person, Mariah uses it as an emphasis rather than a display of "look at what I can do" or singing entire songs using it. Now that isn't a knock on Minnie who was really the first to showcase this skill, and is still the bench mark for it. But saying Lisa is a perfect combination of Whitney and Mariah seems valid.
@@helgar791 no that’s incorrect! Lisa uses a mixture of super high head notes as well as whistle register notes!! If you were trained you would know this!!!! Mariah’s whistle registry is very weak!! Minnie Ripperton’s whistle registry is unmatched! The only other person close to her registry is Chante Moore! You clearly don’t know singing! Lisa way out wayyy before Mariah and you can tell that Whitney uses a lot of Lisa’s technical approaches. Mariah always sounds like she’s screaming and her control is all over the place. The others named tone is pure silk. Minnie Ripperton, Lisa Fischer and Whitney Houston are the best to EVER do it! And I’m done commenting to you, I will not continue to go back and forth with anyone who has no idea what they are talking about. So respond to someone with your misinformation.
@Jamiesearchaccount people like you are insufferable. Lisa doesn't use the whistle register. And Mariahs whistle register Is and always had been leagues above Minnie. Yes Minnie could sustain them longer but that's it, mariahs has always been stronger, agile and more creative with them. Also mariah isn't just whistle notes, unlike Minnie mariahs a VOCALIST just like lisa is. So no she's not a fusion of Whitney and Minnie. Nostalgia has y'all making up fantasises
She sang with Luther Vandross for 25 years until his death. He is one of the only reasons she even put out a project. She absolutely hated the spotlight and preferred to sing background…which she has done successfully with a lot of icons. She is still touring now.
@@FCLaneyThat sounds about right UNFORTUNATELY FOR LUTHER VANDROSS. I believe he EITHER TURNED DOWN OR DELIBERATELY AVOIDED "ANY COLLABORATIVE EFFORTS" SPECIFICALLY WITH FEMALES VOCALIST. I PERSONALLY GUESS HE WANTED THE GUYS TO AT LEAST POTENTIALLY CONSIDER HAVING "EYES FOR HIM"? HE HAD THE DUET WITH GREGORY HINES. AND HE HAD HIS BACKGROUND LADIES AND THE ONE BROTHER. AND! This is from A LIFELONG LUTHER VANDROSS FAN . I PERSONALLY COULDN'T SING LIKE DAVID RUFFIN, SAM COOKE OR JACKIE WILSON BUT.....👀 LUTHER'S STYLE OF "VOCALIZATION" LOOKED ALMOST EFFORTLESS WHEN YOU WATCHED HIM DELIVER THOSE SMOOTH AND VELVETY CONCISE RUNS AND CRESCENDOS. I DIDN'T HAVE TO BE A POWERHOUSE TO VOCALLY EXPRESS MYSELF THROUGH SONG THANKS TO SAM COOKE, DAVID RUFFIN AND LUTHER VANDROSS.
I'm glad you said this. Not many understand that Lisa was not underrated she did not want to be in the spotlight and enjoyed being a background singer. Even when sings the venues are usually smaller intimate settings.
Lisa Fischer is That Girl! She was the backup singer for some of your favorite artists (Luther Vandross, Tina Turner, Sting, Chaka Khan to name a few, plus she's toured with the Rolling Stones). She's featured in the Sundance Film doc "20 Feet From Stardom". I really recommend watching if you want to learn more about her.
Lisa Fischer is one of those singers that make you want to throw your shoes across the room; that's how AMAZING she is.... I've seen her tour a couple of times now and she doesn't disappoint.
When she sang background with The Rolling Stones some of their fans would come to their show with signs just for her. Check out her singing Gimme Shelter live with them.
Lisa is one of the greatest singers of all time to not have a major career, she is known for being a famed session singer, and a famed background singer for the stones, luther vandross just to name a few, this song was featured on her debut album that luther vandross produced and pushed her to do, she won a grammy for it, she actually tied with Patti Labelle, Lisa is considered one of the finest session/backup singers of all time, she actually prefered it,....she is still touring today.......
Lisa, Sade & Linda Ronstadt - females Luther is top for my male vocalist Just listened to "the Rush" yesterday! Maxwell is a close 2nd, and Prince for top all-around STAR! I have many vocalists I love, but these would satisfy me forever - if everyone else faded away Phyllis Hyman was incredible, however I prefer Alyson Williams. So many talents over the years. Consummate performers: Luther, Prince, Maxwell - saw all 3 of them multiple times and beyond thankful that I had those experiences. Chaka Khan is amazing - I saw her at the Apollo and would jump at the chance to see her again. Sade - saw her live TWICE - oh how I wish she would tour again!
OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG I MISS REAL TALENT!!!! THE VOCALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLS!!!!!THIS SONG!!!!! NONE OF THESE YOUNG R&B ARTIST TODAY CAN'T COMPARE!!!! NEVER EVER!!!!! THANKS, GUYS FOR THE MEMORY!!!!
I am so blessed that I had a older father who loved real music. I will never forget hearing this song as a little girl but as a grown woman hearing this sang live, sends chills down my spine and the tears fall. This is not something that can be learned, that voice is ANNOINTED!
My cousins joke about that because most were raised or spent a lot of time with my aunt who passed a few years ago😅 they're in their 30s singing Tempations and Ojays😅
Daryl Coley, Luther Vandross, Phyllis Hyman, Chaka, Lisa Fischer and Jenifer Holiday were the veins of my learning to sing in middle /high school! I learned EVERY run, whistle tone, stage presence... went to college for vocal theory and performance... and now I work in Healthcare Management. Life is still good! ❤
Yeeessss! Thee Lisa Fischer! 🥰🥰🥰🥰 Also, Chante Moore live medley at soul train awards. Or Chante Moore It’s Alright live 2022 (sitting on stool in jeans and white shirt in thumbnail).🔥🔥🔥🔥
I miss the 90's, Lisa SAAAANNNNNGGGG this song!!! The BEST vocalist in the games.... all hands down. She did her thing as always, better than Mariah & Whitney.
Lisa, along with this song, will FOREVER be cemented in the world as one of the greatest voices in music history. This song alone is one of those classics that as soon as you hear it playing somewhere, you will automatically revert back to the specific time in your life when you first heard it🤷🏾♀️. It'll never get old, and although there are plenty of great singers in this world, only a few HAVE been able to, ARE able to, and WILL BE able to hit a note like this.
They also sang together in the group “Change”. Lisa is amazing. I met her two years ago at a jazz festival. She’s still phenomenal and so much fun to watch
If you watch the documentary 20 Feet From Stardom, you'll understand why you've never heard of Lisa. She was a dynamic background singer. She worked with Chaka, The Rolling Stones, Luther, and Tina Turner. Many suggested she go solo. So she recorded the So Intense album. And she started a solo career. But as she talks about it in the doc, it was a lot of pressure and she didn't feel good about it. So she went back to background work on albums and tours. I think she would have continued to grow as a solo artist. But you have to do what feels authentic to you and your spirit. She's now starting to do solo dates again because of the documentary. Her talent is truly unmatched in the background biz.
Now that was just sorcery dude.. There's no way i heard her do what she just did live like that. Lisa Fisher was criminally under rated as a Singer.. It seems to be a crime against Humanity that most people never heard of her, yet they know people like Cardi B, and Megan the Stallion because they're more famous.
It was the only Album she released but she won a Grammy for it. If you are blown away by that,give a listen to Chante Moore's performance on the soul train awards 2022, let's just say if you think Mariah Carey,watch that performance.
Incredible vocalist she is. Its a shame she only ever did the one album tho. Also those high notes she was doing are "super headvoice". A performance you should check out is "superstar" by luther vandross live, goes for about 11 mins and lisa is one of his background singers. An amazing performance.
Lisa was a background singer for the Rolling Stones, but they toured sporadically. Lisa spent most of her career singing back up for Luther Vandross on his numerous tour dates. Lisa was the focus of the movie "20 Feet From Stardom". IMO she is the most underrated singer of her era with a voice comparable to Whitney or Mariah. Lisa is still kicking at the ripe young age of 65, she is still as beautiful as ever, can still hit that F5, performs nationwide, and occasionally in and around her native Brooklyn where both she and I live.
That performance still gives me chills! She won a Grammy for that song; I was fortunate to see Lisa Fischer when she was touring with Luther Vandross in ‘91.
@@codywalsh2075 It's Whitney, Donna, and Shirley Bassey for me. But Lisa Fischer, Rachelle Ferrell, Phyllis Hyman and Wendy Moten deserve their props, they're up there with the very best. Claudia Carenzio from Argentina and Sohyang from South Korea are also incredible! And of course, Barbra, Aretha, Dionne, Gladys, and Patti which are the golden standard.
This was a very masterful performance by Lisa. I’m not sure if she has anymore older performances because her voice was buttery/velvety gold. TMI but I always felt like her voice possesses a great love making element. She just hits every note perfectly and it sends chills down your spinal column.
You asked why you haven't heard more of her. It is because she decided (after going solo) that a high profile career as a "star" was not the kind of life she wanted. So she opted out, and decided instead to work in support of others as backup, and to collaborate as a featured singer. Other commenters have already shared her decades-long association with The Rolling Stones and Luther Vandross, and many others. She now tours as a headliner, but in smaller venues.
@@Shaw2184yes that’s Merry Clayton on Gimmie Shelter, she stated she was woken out of bed and driven to the studio in the wee hours with rollers still in her hair, she also sang background on Sweet Home Alabama by Lynard Skynard
I'm SOOO GLAD y'all was recommended Miss Lisa Fisher... She IS PHENOMENAL ❤️❤️❤️. Y'all are a mess 🤣🤣🤣, I ❤️ It 🤣🤣🤣 PLEASE forgive me if I botch your name Coolie🤣 Not Coolie Saying She Easing his pain 🤣🤣🤣🤣. NOT Y'ALL saying THE PATTING of the chest giving singers superpowers 🤣🤣🤣💀... Y'all are a mess 🤣 but a GOOD mess 🤣🤣🤣. When I became your NEW sub, I was gonna recommend her, but somebody beat me to it 🤣🤣🤣. I'm SOOO GLAD they did recommend Miss Lisa Fisher. That means that person KNOWS GREAT SINGERS 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️❤️❤️🤣🤣🤣 She was a background singer for A LOT of singers. I'm talking about GREAT singers. She's a BEAST, ❤️ her.Oh, and she STILL CAN HIT THOSE HIGH NOTES TODAY 🔥💃🏾🥰❤️💯. Check out Tamia, Chante Moore, Debra Cox, AND OH YES MS MOMMA PATTI LABELLE. You will love those women as well. ❤️
Wow, how fabulous! I love Lisa Fischer, and I thank whoever sent in the recommendation/request. She has so much talent, that voice is the gold standard. (She performs now as a solo artist, but she was a back up singer for Luther V., Tina Turner, Sting and the Stones for ages. You might want to check out some of the shows when she sang Gimme Shelter w/Mick... just wonderful performances).
That was great! It brought back the era for sure, so this is a song that I think you will enjoy the groove. Its the Jones Girls track called Nights over Egypt.
Lisa won a grammy for that performance, but decided she preferred the collaboration that comes with singing background vocals. From 1989 until 2015, Rolling Stones’ tours were her gig. During that same period she also was part of Luther Vandross’ touring and recording backup trio.
This is my first time to your channel, but Lisa is a powerhouse in vocals and I wish that she’d gotten more exposure for it! Thanks for reacting to her, I’d never heard the live version and she sounds even more amazing!
she is so underrated, though one of the best singers ever, I dare to put her in the same league as Aretha Franklin, Diana Ross, Patti Labelle, Stephanie Mills, Chaka Khan, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, just to name a few I love her voice ❤
Lisa has a talent she can roll with ANY genre. She sang back up for many great like Luther Vandross, goes toe to toe with Steve Tyler of The Rolling Stones as well as can lay it down in jazz as well as musicals/showtunes. She is comfortable singing with a band as well as a major orchestra. She is still doing it now, in her 60s and there are many clips of her on here changing it up to match her mood. She shared a Grammy for this song, timing with Patti LaBelle that year. You should check out her and the Stones doing "Gimme Shelter". She brings it to life almost as close to the original singer, Merry Clayton, a great in her own right (Singing this song in while in lat stages of pregnancy in the middle of the night) You can also hear Merry singing background on "Sweet Home Alabama". Anyway for either of them to bring a masterful sound to a song about rape and murder, where most people don't even pay it any attention, you've got to be good... th-cam.com/video/LDxpdFKuGb4/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/rDAEiaz5WxI/w-d-xo.html
I think that I'll be watching you guys in the future because you don't cut the music off every time just because you like something that said people are watching you reactions and y'all did just right you all its two of you and you musicians that makes it twice as good you all are not cutting it off so you can say this and you're not stopping it so you can say that you allow yourself to listen to something new and you got a chance to hear the full Lisa
Lisa Fischer is a beast and does not get the credit she is due. So so underrated. If you have time watch her singing back ground for Luther Vandross on the song Superstar in the Live from Wemberly concert. Mastepiece. Have you heard any of Rachelle Ferrell or Layla Hathaway music. Another treat
She was Luther's background singer or years and she came out around the same time as Mariah, she was huge in the rnb market off that 1 album but she never came back, I guess she knew the business was not for her as a recoding artist. When she did that whistle Mariah was the only other singer doing that so that was what made her real famous!
I joke that i would give my first born to be able to hit that high note😅. Trust me the glass shatters when i try and not in a good way. If i had pets they'd run under the table 😅but i am determined to hit that note even if its in a dream😅😅😅
You two are so CRAZY!!! Thanks for playing Evey one of my reguests...well most of them.😆Especially Lisa Fischer. But, But, But! You still haven't gotten around to CHANT'E MOORE "Live" at the Soul Train AWARDS! I will only send you guys the Best of the Best! Also you guys never got around to the George Michael and Elton John "Live" at Wembly! Guys.. you've always trusted me..."This One is EPIC. They're singing Elton's hit " Dont Let The Sun Go Down on Me." I sent that to you months ago but I realize you get lots of request so I understand. I have one more re-request...Especially for Cooly!!!. It's by the band... CHICAGO. The song is entitled "I'm A Man!" He's gonna love the percussions on this one! You are the Best...I really mean that because I check out all of them! But you two are the most Entertaining with the Best Personalities!😊❤👍🏽mike c./Va.
You should check out her going toe to toe with Mick Jagger on "Gimmie Me Shelter " she toured with the Stones. She only put out 1 solo album. She's a famed session and background singer. Luther Vandross, Tina Turner, Rolling Stones, and others. Also, she won Grammy for this song. Best R&B vocal tied with Pattie LaBelle.
I Also Loved Her Magnificent Performance Here👏🏽…. You’re Show, and You’re Excellent Review of This Extraordinarily Superbly Phenomenal Artist was Genuinely Gracious and She was Beyond Perfect❤ You Both, Also Have Great Taste, and Easily Spotted Her Extraordinary Talent🥂 Thank You‼️🎬
Lisa is one the most underrated singers ever, her voice is a perfect fusion of Whitney and Mariah

That was a great film!!
Her range is ridiculous!!! Her lows are as impressive as her highs!!!
Rachelle Farrell is another overlooked virtuoso in musical vocalisation
Yyyeeesss
Absolutely!!!

The two greatest vocalists ever in my opinion.
She is a power house.

She definitely did
Yes she is a Grammy winner this song or best new artist.
She Beat Whitney Houston and some more of the legends for that Grammy!
She won two Grammys off this song! She was Patti backup singer too and won also

her song was on the radio deep in the 90s especially on those "quiet storm" radio stations
Lisa always ATE!!! No crumbs left!!! Classic record!
She performed this in Japan and in the long version, she greeted the crowd in their native language. She is a true soprano!
Thank you! I've always wondered what she said in the beginning.
Is there a full version available? One with the second verse available, which was cut in this one?
One of the greatest unknown known singers ever!! Her album “So Intense” is incredible!!
Listen Fischer, Luther Vandross and Phyllis Hyman. My top 3 vocalists of all time
Xtina, Lisa Fischer and Phyllis Hyman is my top 3
Lisa, Sade & Linda Ronstadt - females
Luther is top for my male vocalist
Just listened to "the Rush" yesterday!
Maxwell is a close 2nd, and Prince for top all-around STAR!
I have many vocalists I love, but these would satisfy me forever - if everyone else faded away
Phyllis Hyman was incredible, however I prefer Alyson Williams.
So many talents over the years.
Consummate performers: Luther, Prince, Maxwell - saw all 3 of them multiple times and beyond thankful that I had those experiences.
Chaka Khan is amazing - I saw her at the Apollo and would jump at the chance to see her again.

She's a BEAST, ❤️ her.Oh, and she STILL CAN HIT THOSE HIGH NOTES TODAY 🔥💃🏾🥰❤️💯. Check out Tamia, Chante Moore, Debra Cox, AND OH YES MS MOMMA PATTI LABELLE. You will love those women as well. ❤️
Wow, how fabulous! I love Lisa Fischer, and I thank whoever sent in the recommendation/request. She has so much talent, that voice is the gold standard. (She performs now as a solo artist, but she was a back up singer for Luther V., Tina Turner, Sting and the Stones for ages. You might want to check out some of the shows when she sang Gimme Shelter w/Mick... just wonderful performances).
That was great! It brought back the era for sure, so this is a song that I think you will enjoy the groove. Its the Jones Girls track called Nights over Egypt.
She prefers being in the background. I could listen to her all day every day .
Lisa won a grammy for that performance, but decided she preferred the collaboration that comes with singing background vocals. From 1989 until 2015, Rolling Stones’ tours were her gig. During that same period she also was part of Luther Vandross’ touring and recording backup trio.
This is my first time to your channel, but Lisa is a powerhouse in vocals and I wish that she’d gotten more exposure for it! Thanks for reacting to her, I’d never heard the live version and she sounds even more amazing!
she is so underrated, though one of the best singers ever, I dare to put her in the same league as Aretha Franklin, Diana Ross, Patti Labelle, Stephanie Mills, Chaka Khan, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, just to name a few
I love her voice ❤
You mean chaka Khan and Stephanie. Not Aretha and Patti. Those two are another beast levels above.
That was my jam!!! Stayed on repeat. Love her❤
You guys reaction giving me proud goose bumps.
She was also a fav of Mick Jagger & often on tour with the Rolling Stones when not on tour or in the studio with Luther.
Lisa has a talent she can roll with ANY genre. She sang back up for many great like Luther Vandross, goes toe to toe with Steve Tyler of The Rolling Stones as well as can lay it down in jazz as well as musicals/showtunes. She is comfortable singing with a band as well as a major orchestra. She is still doing it now, in her 60s and there are many clips of her on here changing it up to match her mood. She shared a Grammy for this song, timing with Patti LaBelle that year.
You should check out her and the Stones doing "Gimme Shelter". She brings it to life almost as close to the original singer, Merry Clayton, a great in her own right (Singing this song in while in lat stages of pregnancy in the middle of the night) You can also hear Merry singing background on "Sweet Home Alabama". Anyway for either of them to bring a masterful sound to a song about rape and murder, where most people don't even pay it any attention, you've got to be good...

Saw her and Luther at Madison Square Garden...YES!
Saw her and Luther in Miami! 😍
Saw her and Luther in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. There are no words to describe that experience ❤❤❤
Watch the Oscar winning documentary, 20 Feet From Stardom. She explains why she stayed mostly a background singer.
Lisa is one of the greatest to me. She will forever be one of my favorites 💞🧚🏿♂️
Thanks for the content.
Wow that was the perfect amount of echo on her vocals honestly the sweetest sound i think i ever heard.
Yes she was one of his Luther background singers. I heard her live when she opened up for Luther with that song and she was phenominal!❤❤❤
I think that I'll be watching you guys in the future because you don't cut the music off every time just because you like something that said people are watching you reactions and y'all did just right you all its two of you and you musicians that makes it twice as good you all are not cutting it off so you can say this and you're not stopping it so you can say that you allow yourself to listen to something new and you got a chance to hear the full Lisa
Love Lisa Fisher
Between the way he started jumping up and down in chair and Lisa vocal skills gave me chills.
That girl!!!
She sounds great too when she sang with Mick Jager
Lisa was one of Luther Vandross’s Extraordinary backup singers. Most Luther fans know the Amazingly Talented Lisa Fisher🤎🤎🔥 This song is a CLASSIC!🔥
Lisa Fischer is a beast and does not get the credit she is due. So so underrated. If you have time watch her singing back ground for Luther Vandross on the song Superstar in the Live from Wemberly concert. Mastepiece. Have you heard any of Rachelle Ferrell or Layla Hathaway music. Another treat
Straight to the feels 🥲she was obviously very badly hurt to sing with this kind of emotion.
Lisa was a great singer and she slayed this song.
Lisa is amazing, and how about those back-up singers Bobby Caldwell, Brenda Russell, Phil Perry?
She was Luther's background singer or years and she came out around the same time as Mariah, she was huge in the rnb market off that 1 album but she never came back, I guess she knew the business was not for her as a recoding artist. When she did that whistle Mariah was the only other singer doing that so that was what made her real famous!
I thank you guys for this one. She is one of the greats that didn’t get the credit that she deserves.
Please react to Patti labelle “somewhere over the rainbow live at the Apollo 1989” - she blows the roof off the building!!!!!! 🙏🏽
I joke that i would give my first born to be able to hit that high note😅. Trust me the glass shatters when i try and not in a good way. If i had pets they'd run under the table 😅but i am determined to hit that note even if its in a dream😅😅😅
Love that voice.
Difficult to understand why this woman was/is not a mega star... she is absolutely terrific. She needs more recorded music available for purchase.
You are listening to the highest order of vocal perfection there is.
She was a backup singer for Luther Vandross and many others.
ooooo do Alright by Chante Moore live (preferably the one with her wearing a white shirt) next
Yyyeeesss
great reaction. first time watching you. lisa fischer is master class.
I miss this woman’s music. 😭

You two are so CRAZY!!! Thanks for playing Evey one of my reguests...well most of them.😆Especially Lisa Fischer. But, But, But! You still haven't gotten around to CHANT'E MOORE "Live" at the Soul Train AWARDS! I will only send you guys the Best of the Best! Also you guys never got around to the George Michael and Elton John "Live" at Wembly! Guys.. you've always trusted me..."This One is EPIC. They're singing Elton's hit " Dont Let The Sun Go Down on Me." I sent that to you months ago but I realize you get lots of request so I understand. I have one more re-request...Especially for Cooly!!!. It's by the band... CHICAGO. The song is entitled "I'm A Man!" He's gonna love the percussions on this one! You are the Best...I really mean that because I check out all of them! But you two are the most Entertaining with the Best Personalities!😊❤👍🏽mike c./Va.
She sung with Mick Jagger a lot, along with other singers
You should check out her going toe to toe with Mick Jagger on "Gimmie Me Shelter " she toured with the Stones. She only put out 1 solo album. She's a famed session and background singer. Luther Vandross, Tina Turner, Rolling Stones, and others. Also, she won Grammy for this song. Best R&B vocal tied with Pattie LaBelle.
I Also Loved Her Magnificent Performance Here👏🏽….
