Apart from her whistle register and amazing breath control, there is nothing she can do that today’s artists can’t do… * ignore this ignorant comment *
on tht second run she actually held that note THAT DAMN LONG at that pitch just like on the record OMGGGGGGGGG! This woman was a treasure....and she is so beautiful. WoW! #RIP
Many singers can do the whistle singing, but only 2 people have ever been known to sing words while whistle singing- the pronunciation so clear you can hear the words. Those 2 singers are Minnie Riperton and Cleo Laine.
I literally cried whenever she hit a high note. How blessed we are to be able to hear this wonderful woman and her wonderful songs. So amazingly talented--words can't describe!
This song was written by a man for a woman he later married. The song was about his desire to become ONE with her spiritually, mentally, emotionally AND physically!!! Ladies, if you have ever experienced a man as roots with his desire to be ONE with you, you will understand the depth & power of this very BEAUTIFUL LOVE SONG!!!!
And ,some radio stations wouldn't play it, saying that it was too sexual. You can tell she wasn't singing it as a sexual song but, a love song. If you've never been loved deeply by a woman or, a man you couldn't understand this beautiful song 💜💯🙏🏽🏆⭐
It is a cool double entendre even if it was not his intention when writing it, Minnie’s work always had seductive elements and her delivery definitely left room for interpretation shall we say.
1:32, You know what. No one can ever do this vocally except for her at that time. Ms. Riperton was really an Angel from Heaven acting like a human woman on earth.
I truly believe thats why she died so young. Her time was up. She accomplished what she was sent here to do. And that was touch people's soul with her music. Her music personifies Love. Love is what brings us closer to God. She was Truly a Angel on Earth
On this day in history (April 5, 1975), Minnie Riperton’s single “Lovin’ You” became a number 1 hit on Billboard’s pop singles chart and went on to achieved the same status in over 20 countries around the world. She was married to songwriter and music producer Richard Rudolph and they had two children: music engineer Marc Rudolph and actress/comedienne Maya Rudolph. Minnie Riperton was born Minnie Julia Riperton on November 8th 1947, in Chicago, Illinois. She was the youngest of eight children, born to Daniel and Thelma Riperton. She studied classical music as a child and developed a five-octave vocal range and originally planned to become an opera singer. She studied music, drama, and dance at Chicago’s Lincoln Center received operatic vocal training from Marion Jeffery. Riperton began singing as a session singer at the Chess Records studio when she was just a teenager. She provided backing vocals on records by legendary artist Bo Diddley, Etta James, Muddy Waters and Chuck Berry. At age 16, Riperton signed her first professional contract and began singing with an all-girl group named “The Gems” on the Chess label. After “The Gems”, she joined the psychedelic rock group “The Rotary Connection”. During this time Riperton met songwriter and producer Richard Rudolph. They married in 1969 and had a son, Marc Rudolph. Together they worked on Riperton’s first solo album, 1969’s “Come to My Garden”. In 1972 she Riperton she gave birth to her daughter Maya Rudolph. Eventually, Riperton and her family moved to Los Angeles where she to become a member of Stevie Wonder‘s backing group, “Wonderlove”. After touring with Wonder, she returned to the studio to work on her second solo album, “Perfect Angel” which contained the international pop hit “Lovin’ You”. As the story is told, “Lovin’ You” was originally written as a lullaby for her then two-year-old daughter, Maya. In January 1976, Riperton was diagnosed with breast cancer and, in April, she underwent a radical mastectomy. At the time of diagnosis, cancer had metastasized and she was given about six months to live. She was one of the first celebrities to go public with her breast cancer diagnosis but did not disclose she was terminally ill. Despite her prognosis she continued recording and touring. Riperton became a spokesperson for the American Cancer Society in 1977. In 1978, she received the American Cancer Society’s Courage Award, which was presented to her at the White House by President Jimmy Carter. July 12, 1979, at age 31, Minnie Riperton succumbed to cancer in her husband’s arms while listening to a song written especially for her by her friend Steve Wonder.
@@valeriesparks5316 Say whuddd?!?!? Bobby and Eldra is some bad brothas! Actually all the siblings are worthy of artistic accolades. Minnie stands in a different spotlight.
Listening to this as a child in the 70s this was great...as a 56 yr old man, this is beyond sexual, however its so poetic. This proves that you can be creatively descriptive, make a point, and maintain a high level of class and innocence." Unfortunately, in the 80s, creativity was replaced with vulgarity, and now in the 2020s have sexy redd and Lil Rt. I miss when music was music and you had to hone your craft to make it. No samples, no drum machines, only sitting in a room and making it up.
It's just.. so perfect. The "note" is indescribable, I honestly don't know how to else to say it. But what does it for me is, the whole entire song is perfect, her voice is perfect, notes and pitches and tones just immaculate. AND THIS IS LIVE?! It's just a blessing of a voice, I am speechless 🤯
Man oh Man!!...didn't appreciate the 70's when I was a kid living it, took it for granted. Truly didn't know how good we had it. This was the era of originality and the legendary GREATS at there purest..can't you just feel the passion? Like someone had mentioned below this an old school mic minus the new technology without the latest State of the art extra enhanced sound effects, no studio touch ups..just the priceless voice of an angel, a passionate performance sounding better than the record..I could feel the LOVE in the music. That is no more today. The love is gone in the music.
@@myindaedevereaux731 l've always loved Minnie to the max, no question. But I also have much love for Chante', too! After hearing Chante' cover a few of Minnie's songs, I feel she'd do justice to more! ("Love And Its Glory", hint, hint!)
When I hear this song it literally makes me cry 😿 this woman had the greatest voice I have ever heard, truly she was the greatest!!! Rest in peace young lady, may ALLAH allow you in paradise!!!
I was listening to the radio when they announced that Minnie passed away from breast cancer, as a fan I was in total shock. Her sound had me captivated, I would play her music so much that a friend of mine would say " If you don't play something else I'm gonna scream" I'd laugh and continue to sing but her 5 active range I couldn't touch.
🙏🏽 grew up listening to her , this is my first visual of her live . I am humbled as a music artist, and just stunned by her performance and skills all around. 2024
Wow what a beautiful powerful angel voice I always enjoyed hearing female voices that sing like this whit so much passion and the lyric is lovely as well gta iv brought me here and I’m glad for it 🤎
I "discovered" her recently and became very impressed and sad in knowing she's passed so Young, like our Brazilian singer Elis Regina. This world don't deserves someone like this woman. Rest in peace.
@@petterbernard Ty fro the recommendation. In the 1970s, My father use to travel from our home in upstate New York State down to NY city to buy Brazilian albums as imports. I’ll look into the albums you suggested!
1975 was a very good year, miss you Minnie, she was fearless and so free - a real free woman, such an inspiration and role model, the vibe was unbelievable....gone but never forgotten 💖 perfect angel, Maya is looking beautiful on the cover of the May 2024 edition of Town & Country...Minnie was "free" before it was popular to stand in your truth - it was in her soul, if you were fortunate enough to be in high school or a young adult in the 70's you know exactly what I mean, it was an amazing time to be young...
Will always listen to her. She is the most unique, beautiful, gifted singer of all time. Her clarity and note purity has been imitated but never duplicated. She’s a treasure for all time!♥️♥️♥️🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🎶🎶🎶
So many singers are compared to high octave phrases, listeners don't really hear the singer, its all about everything the singer does before during and after those highlights. I love Minnies' breathy notes, power and tender emotion laced with graceful moments of a knowing experience.
Simplesmente, maravilhosa! É inacreditável eu saber da existência de uma artista desse nível apenas no século XXI. Com certeza, a melhor da sua geração.
OMG! So this is one of my favorite songs yet today is my first time hearing and seeing her sing it live. She sound exactly the same, no studio edits...this sent chills when she hit that first high note it's like I fell in love all over again. Thank you @LuvNU75 for uploading this.... man thank you!
That just brought tears to my eyes! I love this song so much, but seeing her sing like that live... Man it just hits you in the soul. I'm still sniffling!
Omg..I always loved this song..never thought to see her sing it live and as I was listening I saw this video...all tears. Its a very love strong song and she kills it!

This type of singing is missed in today's music.
Apart from her whistle register and amazing breath control, there is nothing she can do that today’s artists can’t do…

@@MarquesTheProducer So why aren't they then???
Very much so
@@PapaBrejj they are. You just have to look for the quality ones
To elaborate on this point, I think what Minnie had that is missing today is authenticity, something pure and real. Soul.
The 1970s R&B movement, pure, clean, and so satisfying like water.
Beautiful, @eEdJones! [At first, I misread "satisflying" as "satisfying"!]
Can you imagine hearing Minnie Riperton live... WoW.
These singers today 2000-2024 are soo trash!!!
The purest voice I have ever heard. Listen to this with no studio tricks!

Glad I'm not the only one who knows what type of coming she's singing about!

I remember this being published on TH-cam i was really into this song
And i couldnt have been more shocked and humbled by it
She’s my favorite female voice of all time
So amazing so a beautiful and blessed singer I love her.❤
I know right, I wholeheartedly agree with that! Amazing and beautiful.

That day was a very cloudy and miserable day. A day of mourning.
Rarely do wives go before husbands???
I’m 25 and obsessed with this woman. And I’m only on my 2nd song of hers
I understand. She got me when I was 11 years old.
Enjoy the journey! Minnie ripperton has a beautiful music catalog.
Haha, what's the first song? Les fluers?
I’m 25 and love her too! She was a goddess
Check out Chante Moore....

Lol you cried? Go see a doctor brah
I just heard Nile Rodgers say the last time he cried was listening to this song.
Amen

Same here, dear. Same here.

This song was written by a man for a woman he later married. The song was about his desire to become ONE with her spiritually, mentally, emotionally AND physically!!!
Ladies, if you have ever experienced a man as roots with his desire to be ONE with you, you will understand the depth & power of this very BEAUTIFUL LOVE SONG!!!!
I kind of had my mind in gutter, if you know what I mean.
My goodness 1979 I was just getting out of HS. RIP mu queen no one could touch you.
And ,some radio stations wouldn't play it, saying that it was too sexual. You can tell she wasn't singing it as a sexual song but, a love song. If you've never been loved deeply by a woman or, a man you couldn't understand this beautiful song 💜💯🙏🏽🏆⭐
This lady's voice was phenomenal
If you're not feeling this , you just SOULESS ...
She sounds the same love as on her records. I love Ms.Minnie 😭💗
So lovely I understand what the song means now. When I was young I thought it was about sex. Not inside my guts, no, inside my heart , spirit my mind.
I remember Leon Ware wrote this track and he said the same. Think he was a bit irritated people assumed it was all about sex.
When you truly love someone you want to pull their soul deep inside of your soul, and never let it go.
It is a cool double entendre even if it was not his intention when writing it, Minnie’s work always had seductive elements and her delivery definitely left room for interpretation shall we say.
A beautiful angel from heaven came down and blessed us with her heavenly voice, left and went back home. 😥😥😥
This is one of my favorite songs by the great Minnie Riperton. She's singing with the Ancestors of Angelic Voices now. God bless you. 🥲😇
I saw her in a similar concert at the Paramount, in Austin, TX, in the 70's ... still breathtakingly beautiful!!

I love this song she have such a soft Beautiful voice. The way she hit those notes it's outstanding.❤
She did not have a voice but an instrument and she could play it
She was properly voice trained to sing at soprano level.
So many singers are compared to high octave phrases, listeners don't really hear the singer, its all about everything the singer does before during and after those highlights. I love Minnies' breathy notes, power and tender emotion laced with graceful moments of a knowing experience.
Look at that scenography! Paradise vibes.
