Even though c-sharp is C-ish (minimalistic), lisp has had cleaner syntax and has most of the buzzword features for more than half a century already.

Considering just the language, lisp is way better than c# for its flexibility and expressiveness, but if we take into account the whole inftrastructure built around c# I think it takes the lead. For example, building GUI applications with lisp seems a very difficult task because the lack of stable, mature and modern graphic toolkits.
