Black Lady sings just like the one on Pink Floyd's album dark side of the moon the screaming soulful voice..

Question

If you remember back to the Dark Side of the Moon,,,,there is a song where this Black Lady belts her lungs out almost screaming ... well recently last year on FOX (tv channel) for promos of i trhink "Smallville" or something there is a voice singing just like that lady did on the 1971 Album but this is more modern. Was wondering what song it was and who she was. thanks

My question is NOT whether you like Pink FLoyd, and my question is NOT the name of the pink floyd song!

The question is WHO is the lady that "sounds like" the woman in an old pink floyd song. "The great gig in the sky"

This is a modern singer and a modern song possible Moby?

MY QUESTION IS NOT WHO SUNG ON PINK FLOYDS ALBUM FOR GOD'S SAKE CAN ANYONE READ??

Answer 1

Not sure of the ladies name, but the song is definitely called "The Great Gig In The Sky"

Enjoy
Shine-On

Answer 2

The vocalist was a woman named Clare Torry, who I believe is a white woman.

During live performances by Pink Floyd, up to three singers were used, each taking different parts of the song. For example, Durga McBroom performed on the A Momentary Lapse of Reason and The Division Bell tours, as well as at Knebworth and on Gilmour's solo tours.

In 2004, Torry sued Pink Floyd and EMI for songwriting royalties, on the basis that her contribution to "Great Gig in the Sky" constituted co-authorship with Rick Wright; originally, she was paid the standard Sunday flat studio rate of £30. In 2005, a settlement was reached in High Court in Torry's favour, although terms were not disclosed[3] In the P*U*L*S*E DVD booklet, The Great Gig In The Sky is credited to Wright and "vocal composition by Clare Torry".
