Every time I hear her sing “Stay with me while we grow old,” I cry a little. So sad that she never got to do so.

@RC-fi8zw Год назад

Me too!! 😢

@htbald1 Год назад

You guys need to see the live version. She was vocally amazing! In the live, she sings to her daughter, Mya Rudolph and I believe she goes even higher!

@timmistorey5989 Год назад

Definitely the live version. Her husband playing the guitar, just beautiful. ,. Her daughter is Mya Rudolph, the comedians. At the end of this song. She speaks her name. Mya Mya mya

This Lady had a fantastic voice range.

@amb6899 Год назад

She had a whistle register which is rare. On the live version at the end she repeats Maya, Maya actually her newborn which became Maya Rudolph on Saturday night Live. Loved the song back mid 70s still do. An incredible voice, beautiful song.

@davidbarnes1113 Год назад

I was 15 when Minnie left this world. 😢I remember it like it was yesterday, I was exposed to her music at around age 10 and she is one of my favorite singers of all time. He music send chills down your spine. If you’ve seen the Jordan Perl movie “Us” , that’s Minnie’s hit “Les Fleurs “ playing during the closing credits. I also love her songs “Seeing You This Way” and “Memory Lane” just to name a couple. Way too many great ones to list.

@cassandrabartee4999 Год назад

Miss Minnie Riperton was Beyond Wonderful, Her Octave Range was easily @ 5-7! She was also in a group called Rotary Connection. Two of my favorite songs from her are "Expecting" & "Les Fleurs". They also take me to another place in time. She passed away much too soon. RIPP 👑

@reichensperger1847 Год назад

Beautifully sincere reaction. As others have written here, the Fender Rhodes electric piano was played by Stevie Wonder, who arranged the Perfect Angel album that this song came from. I still have the album that I bought when it came out in 1974, with its amazing credits, which listed "Fender Rhodes Piano: El Toro Negro" (Stevie Wonder's alter ego as "the black bull", which he had to use for contractual reasons) followed by "Mockingbird: God," which is how he credited the source of the background call.

@CerebralAptitude Год назад

My #1 favorite song of all time. This is what I think of when I look for love again. This is hands down the most beautiful love song of all time and the most played at weddings.

@ajruther67 Год назад

That high note I'd called Whistle Register Sadly, she died a couple of years from breast cancer after this song was released

@toodlescae Год назад

I used to be able to hit that high note when I was younger. Not anymore unfortunately due to age and too many years of smoking. I loved Minnie because she was one of the few in my 1st soprano vocal range. My ability to hit those high notes are one of the reasons my choir teacher wanted me to study opera. Unfortunately there was no way my family could afford that kind of training even in the early 80's.

@RobPalmer80 Год назад

Minnie is the Mom of Hollywood actress Maya Rudolph.

@tonyguarascio4901 Год назад

Did not know that! Thats a great trivia tidbit, as well as a beautiful song.

@shwicaz Год назад

@@tonyguarascio4901 Yes, that's why she says "Maya Maya" at the end of the song.a "“Lovin' You” was originally written as a lullaby to one-year-old Maya and her brother Marc, so that Riperton and her husband could spend time together, living as a young couple in Gainesville, Florida. At the end of the LP version, you can hear Minnie singing “Maya, Maya.”"

@Brandon-sw5ob Год назад

How do I love trivia that's awesome I did not even have a remote idea that Maya Rudolph's mother was Minnie Riperton. Thank you thank you very much I love that stuff. I think the only singer that I could think of off the top of my head that could pull that off honestly besides many would B Mariah Carey. I think she could hit the soft part and I know she could hit that high note. But Maya that's awesome

This song was written and produced by the great Stevie Wonder. The song went all the way to hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the early spring of 1975. Minnie's vocal range is between the 5-7 octave scale. By the way, Minnie's daughter is the great comic actress, Maya Rudolph. This song is a definitely a beautiful song indeed!!!

@laudobonifaciojunior Год назад

Minnie Julia Riperton Rudolph was born in Chicago on November 8, 1947. Soul, R&B and Rock singer, she became very famous for the 1975 single "Lovin' You". was an important name in the civil rights movement and one of the voices in breast cancer awareness. In January 1976, Riperton was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent a radical mastectomy. By the time of diagnosis, the cancer had spread and she was given about 6 months to live. Despite the bleak prognosis, she continued recording and touring. Riperton was one of the first celebrities to go public with her breast cancer diagnosis, but did not reveal that she was terminally ill. She passed away a few years later, but left her mark on music history. Her hot voice will be eternal ....

I feel you guys. A beautiful voice a beautiful girl a haunting song combined to make one of the greatest classics of the golden 70s. Magnificent performance here she did. Unbeknownst to Minnie Riperton, she unintendedly established the gold standard on which future "whistle-blowers" who wish to cover the song will be measured.

@victorcowboywest Год назад

When ever I hear this song, I flash back to all the young girls who strange their throat trying to hit that note 🎶

@jasonjohns2961 Год назад

Asia, your high note at about 3 48 was a c#6 according to my vocal pitch monitor app. ( very nice! ) minnie was around G6.

@glenngotling657 Год назад

Minnie was such a sweet lady. Cancer took her away way to soon. I got her album when it first came out and fell in love with her singing. There are lots of good songs on that album.

@matthewpaul1111 Год назад

Yes if you haven't already watched Minnie perform this song live on The Midnight Special 1975 it is a must watch to see her soulful, loving expressions perfectly match the beauty of her voice and the music. It's one of those perfect performances that can put a person in an altered almost hypnotic state!

@michellecasey5752 Год назад

Every girl wished they could hit those ear-slitting notes from this absolutely beautiful song. I was just young enough to have never been fully aware of what cancer was until I heard that she was dead, and only in her early 30’s. It made me scared that my Mom would die soon because she was already 45. But, besides this ever popular song, Minnie Riperton gave us Mya Rudolph. Such an amazingly talented family.

Maybe next we could get you to react to a song that says it all. SHOW AND TELL by Al Wilson. I memorized this song in junior high school to sing to a girl to get her to go to a dance. She said, Yes. And at the dance, when they played the song I held her closer and whispered it in her ear. She was my girlfriend for the rest of the year until she moved away. I never saw her again. But the memory remains. Another suggestion, DISCO ROUND by Alicia Bridges. Enjoy

@NeptuneLady1957 Год назад

I remember the day she died. My boyfriend back then, called me on the phone and said. “Baby, she’s gone.” He didn’t even say who; I knew. We were both BIG fans! She has so many more songs. Try “Inside My Love.” ❤️🔥
