Miisa-Leena Päällysaho (19 February 1970 – 7 July 2016),[1] better known as Miisa, was a Finnish Eurodance artist who released two albums in the 1990s. Her first single was released in Finland in 1991 and in the mid-1990s Miisa was trying to break into the US markets. Her biggest hit was the single Set Me Free, reaching #9 on the Billboard compiled Dance Club Songs chart in March 1996.[2] The song All or Nothing (1994) was included on the soundtrack to the 1999 comedy But I'm a Cheerleader.[3] It was later revealed that Miisa did not actually sing on her records, but the real vocalist was the Swedish singer Karin Strömfelt.[4] After her music career, Miisa worked as a make-up artist. She died of cancer on 7 July 2016, aged 46.[1]
