Fisher is a band consisting of composer and songwriter Ron Wasserman and vocalist Kathy Fisher. After starting in 1997, their song "I Will Love You" has become the most downloaded song on the Internet ever.[citation needed] Since then, Fisher has enjoyed mainstream success. "I Will Love You" (a tribute to Brent Mydland, the late keyboardist of the Grateful Dead) was featured in a 2001 episode of Roswell and "Breakable" was featured in a 2002 episode of Smallville.

"Breakable" originally appeared on the soundtrack for the 1998 movie adaptation of Charles Dickens classic novel Great Expectations starring Ethan Hawke, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Robert DeNiro.

"Hello It's Me" is aimed at an unknown party from the time period "Breakable" was recorded; the line "Number twelve, remember me" references the track number that "Breakable" appeared on the soundtrack.

They are also known for their music in the TV show Sweet Valley High, even before they were "officially" the band.

Kathy Fisher has covered Ordinary Miracle, a song made famous by Sarah McLachlan, for a 2007 CVS commercial.

In 2005 Fisher's song Beautiful Life was used in a series of commercials for Toyota. The song was also featured in a Fall 2008 advertisement for the TLC network television shows 17 Kids and Counting, Jon & Kate Plus 8 and Little People Big World.

Kathy Fisher has also lent her voice to various electronic music producers, notably The Thrillseekers and Moonbeam in 2008.

Their song "You" from the 2005 album "The Lovely Years" was featured on the television program Bones.

Their song "I will love you" was also featured in the 2007 movie "Death Sentence".[1]
