About the Artist
As early explorers of the MP3.com landscape, Fisher became the 1st band signed to a major label deal on the basis of the strength of its musical downloads. They garnered three million downloads of their single "I Will Love You" before most bands figured out there were other ways than brick-and-mortar to reach listeners. With no publicity machine behind them, they built enough buzz on their own to be profiled in "Time," "Entertainment Weekly," and the "Los Angeles Times" as vanguards of the digital music revolution--and be invited to the coveted desk side seat next to Jay Leno after tearing it up on "The Tonight Show."

I expected good music from one parent to another parent.......2007-05-03
While her vocals are great (and very reminiscent of a blend of Alanis Morissette and Sarah McLachlan) and I did expect a collection of songs from the heart of a parent, I was disappointed to find language that would require a bar of soap in a household of children. I can't play this when my kids are around! What's the point in that?
A truly gifted artist who has an unbelievable voice.......2006-01-30
I discovered Kath Fisher on itunes and fell in love with her album "One". Her voice is truly her instrument, so controlled and multi-layered, soulful and capable of long notes and belts. She has a good range, with shades of Tori, Alanis, but with a deep tone that makes her truly unique. Her lyrics are cool, with an enunciation that makes them understandable. Her tunes are catchy, but not your typical radio pop, though I have heard her on San Diego radio. Standouts include "I will love you" on ONE; I love "Beautiful Life" which you may recognize from the Toyota commerical; and "The Lovely Years" from the new album of the same name. I actually have all of her albums, and all songs are just great. UPPERS AND DOWNERS is an album of 1/2 quick tempo songs and 1/2 slower songs, with lots of covers, including a cool version of "Dream On". If you are looking for a great, but for some reason undiscovered in the mainstream true talent, you can't go wrong with Fisher. Why isn't this girl famous?
It's a beautiful album.......2005-07-20
If you like Sarah, Tori or the Indigo girls you will love this album
Great if you are a new parent..........2005-06-15
I love Fisher's music, and bought this the day it came out. The music is good, but I was a little disappointed that the theme for the album was about how wonderful it is to be parents. Not that babies aren't wonderful, they are, but if you aren't a new parent you may not relate well to this album and True North would be a better pick.
lovely years, voice, lyrics and music = er, lovely!.......2005-05-07
new moms will be particularly attracted to the pretty songs. the lullaby "you" is especially nice -- one of only two Lullaby songs to actually make me weepy-eyed thinking about my wee one (who is now 8) (the other song was "baby mine" by alison krauss)
her voice is as lush and memorable as ever, and the music and arrangements are even better than on previous works.
stand outs other than "you": "all i ask" "beautiful day" "sleepy head" "lovely years" "turn around" and "be here".
good stuff! cd universe has the cd for $3 cheaper. i guess amazon gets their shipping cost one way or another.....

Do you hear, AMAZON? Please make this jewel available again!
Can't wait.......2003-06-30
I just bought this one as a present. Can't wait to play it. Then I'll give my review. I'll bet it's a sure winner if it's a young Sutherland. She is the "Queen of opera" in my book.
Sutherland Rarities Indeed!.......2002-01-12
This album is astonishing but is mainly of interest to Sutherland fans who have followed the complete career of this opera singer known as "La Stupenda." It contains recordings from her very early years, even recordings in Australia when she was still studying singing and had not yet gone to England to start her illustrious career. It is a thrill to hear the voice at such an early stage before she became a bel canto specialist. Some of the arias are sung in English instead of their original language, as was often done early on. There is even a snippet of a piano rehearsal with her coach/husband when not all goes well! This is called Vol. 1. Might we hope for another volume or two?
Joan Sutherland?.......2000-01-29
This disk is a MUST for any serious Sutherland enthusiast. The selections date from 1949 when the great lady was still in Australia to 1957 and you will be astounded at how different she sounded then compared with later years when she came to world wide attention. Here for the most part we are given examples of the steely, dramatic soprano voice which in those days Sutherland intended to nurture with a view to becoming a Wagnerian soprano. Many pieces are sung in English, including "Ritorna Vincitor" from Aida and there are several items from The Mastersingers of Nuremburg and one from Gotterdammerung. They are enchanting in a strange sort of way as it is unusual to hear Wagner sung by a beautiful voice, and she produces some revishing textures in places. The most interesting selections on this disk for me are from Emilia di Liverpool. We are treated to a "home rehearsal" of "Madre, deh placati, Ah! Di contento" with Richard Bonynge at the piano being admonished by Sutherland for plonking on the keys whilst she is talking to him. She delivers the whole aria (having been told off by him for not singing particular dynamics) and ends with her own unique assessment of her performance. There then follows the same aria taken from the subsequent live performance although this has previously been released on several lables. All in all, a very interesting disk, I look forward to volume 2.
