She did NOT want to be a solo singer and only agreed to do ONE album because she LOVED and PREFERED being a backup singer. She won a Grammy for that song, and if I am not mistaken, she tied with Patti LaBelle that year.

    I absolutely LOVE this song! When I heard it on the top 40 every week, I knew I had to get the cassette single. I love sad songs, so this one was right up my alley. I remember during the awards show in 1992, she was competing with Whitney Houston. Whitney kept winning, but then Lisa beat her in a category with this song. In her speech, she jokingly said something like "I got this one, Whitney!" Whitney laughed from the audience. It was a great moment. 🙂

    • @InvestBetter.
      @InvestBetter. Před 7 měsíci +6

      She earned that Grammy, beating Whitney Houston, and just the superior quality of the track.
      Since she never followed it up with anything on this level, I guess she did it to prove a point.

      I got the cassette single too when it came out LOL. Yeah, she did an amazing job and I think, if she wanted to, she really could have gone far in her career. But she said she had her moment in the spotlight but it was enough for her and she chose to go back to being a backup. She a rarity in that industry.

    Please read the "comments" section! You reacted to the "studio" version of this song. Oh No! The studio version is very good, but her live performance of this song (in Japan) to me is an "unforgettable moment in female vocals" - so much better than the studio version. Lisa's vocals "live" of this song is probably the best vocal performance I've ever heard! Please re-do this "Reaction Video" and substitute the live performance. You can find the video clip on CZcams!!! Then you two will really be "Shook"!

    She left behind a solo career to sing backup because she felt more comfortable there. But in recent years she's gone back to singing solo in small venues. But this is the only solo album she ever did. She's incredibly talented. She can sing anything and her range is insane.

    More proof why I have been begging for a Luther Vandross reaction of House is not a Home Naacp awards show live. One of the best live performances ever, she was a back up singer for him. Lisa also does a live version of this song that's even better than the record. Hopefully one day we get those reactions.

  • @Whitebrowpriest
    @Whitebrowpriest Před 7 měsíci +4

    5:10 - Lisa Fischer said that she was simply more fond of singing backup vocals for other artists. The whole solo career wasn't really her idea, but since she has such an amazing voice, others convinced her to release an album as a solo artist. She compared backup vocals to a "tuning fork", and thus vital to the creation of good music. She said she simply got more satisfaction out of creating great music while supporting other artists. Not for nothing, if she wanted, she could definitely have had a much longer, and notable solo career, for sure!

    Put “20 Feet From Stardom “ on your movie list. Lisa’s in that documentary about backing singers and their struggle to get solo opportunities. She’s still touring, and she reimagines this song and others she’s backed on in a totally different way. She’s has an ethereal, otherworldly presence and vibe. A true artist who followed her true self, totally immersed in the song and the sounds. I am not exaggerating. At all.

  • @amontaineaurore4700
    @amontaineaurore4700 Před 7 měsíci +3

    I think Lisa FIscher became disenchanted with the industry, and decided to go back to singing backup. She has one of the most amazing voices. You can hear some of her story in the documentary,, 20 Feet from Stardom, about the lives of some of the best backup singers. Phenomenal stories in that documentary. Maybe you can do that for your movie reaction.

    Amber asked about an award or trophy. Lisa was awarded a Grammy in 1992 when she and Patti Labelle tied for best female RnB performance. She picked up another one in 2014 as part of the cast of "20 Feet From Stardom", which won best musical film. The film also won an Academy award for best documentary feature. In it Lisa goes explains that she doesn't see stepping out of the spotlight as a step backwards. She simply loved, even preferred, singing backup. She remained humble through it all, despite being drop dead gorgeous and talented on the most elite of levels. There are several of her amazing live performances on CZcams.

  • @tkremarkTK

    You guys missed a Golden Opportunity to watch her live in Japan. The studio version pales in comparison, my all-time favorite female vocalist. She won a grammy and then went back to singing backup, including for the Rolling stones for many many years. Many of her contemporary backup singers says she owns that space.. You need to watch the Documentary "20 feet from Stardom" about mostly, black backup singers bringing the flavor to Rock music that the artists like the Stones could not get without the back blackup singers. She is highly featured in this documentary. After seeing more success from this documentary and quit the stones, formed her own band and now travels the country doing lounges and nightclubs and is perfectly happy in her new role.

    Lisa Fischer is hands down one of the most underrated and possibly unfamiliar artists because of the trajectory of her career. That being said in her day she easily would’ve held her own against the great voices like Chaka and Whitney. I’m so glad you’re listening to the full version, she deserves so much more recognition. Look for her live performance of this song in Japan with the incomparable Bobby Caldwell ironically singing backup for her … she provides chills n tingles…this woman is a Queen of song and harmony.

    When this song hit the airwaves in the early 90s, (1991 or 1992), it just totally blew me away. A torch song for the 90s, with a phenomenal singer that seemed to come out of nowhere, with just one solo album (of course, as you noted, she did do background vocals for many people for years; I looked into her work with Luther Vandross). I've watched some of her more recent performances here on CZcams. She still sounds amazing. She chose to do the one solo album and then go back to singing backup for others, despite her talent. She didn't want the added pressure of being a solo artist. That said, the whole 'So Intense' album is wonderful, and there are many live performances she has done available to watch here on CZcams.

    I LOVED Amber’s reaction when she hit that note. Many people credit Mariah Carey for starting that “whistle” in Vision of love, it was Lisa Fischer that I first heard it. She’s one of the truly spectacular talents and her singing this live in Japan is phenomenal! I need to see this reaction again

    I’ve had the distinct privilege of being on a Luther Vandross tour with the group Sounds Of Blackness. Lisa performed this song for 180 shows, and each performance was just as flawless as the first. If you really want to get to know her - - she is in a movie a documentary about background vocals called 20 feet from stardom and she is featured in this movie. She has a heart of gold and a highly sought after background vocalist and lead vocalist to this very day. She is one of the most successful background vocalist out there, which is why she’s always called on tour with the Rolling Stones or Chaka Khan.

    This wonderful singer, now 64 years old, has spent many years being a back-up singer for many stars, as you noted. As a result, she is one of a few singers featured in the 2013 Grammy Award-winning movie, 20 Feet From Stardom, about four of the most talented back-up singers who had not quite made it as stars in their own right. That movie is frequently on cable and you and your followers would find it fascinating.

    This is why the R&B of the 90s are unmatched. The 80s, too, but the 90s were the Golden Era of hip hop and R&B. Quiet storm was a thing back then so this track would fall into that sub-genre.

Another singer for 'Female Friday' I recommend is, Judie Tzuke tracks by her: "For You", "Stay with Me Till Dawn", "Chinatown", "Jeannie No", and "If" there are many others but these are some of my favourites.

    She can still sing just as well, her voice is still amazing. And it's telling that so many artists with far less talent are far better known, far more "successful" when Ms. Fischer can blow them out of the water. Glad you finally listened to this, but you should also check out one of her live performances. She is just thrilling live.

    Lisa Fischer was a back up singer to all those musicians that you mentioned, and then she went solo for one album. This was her opening song. However, she did an interview I heard on the radio, and she stated something to the effect that being solo and out in front was a different energy. She decided to return to back up singing and has had a phenomenal career.
