I can’t believe so many people have never heard of Minnie Ripperton! One of the most angelic voices to ever exist. This is literally the most beautiful song. Her daughter is Maya Rudolph from SNL
Minnie Ripperton a Vocal Legend and Yes she held that Note That Long.. 🤯🤯🤯. She's a classically trained Vocalist (Opera i believe) but in growing up in the 60s she was influenced amd gravitated toward funk soul rock, she joined a group called The Rotary Connection. She tragically passed in her ealry 30s after a long battle with Cancer. Fun fact her Daughter 8s Comic/Actress Maya Rudolph.
Minnie was a helluva talent, taken in her prime by cancer. And yes, this is one helluva track - even outside of the barely concealed sensuality, it's just a jam. Also worth listening to: Lovin' You, as others have said, but also Les Fleur, which has some truly beatiful lyricism to it.
She was saying it both ways. Written with her husband initially meaning spiritually while knowing exactly what they were also saying. Reasons and le fleur are so great among so many
So sad she went so young. She really was an incredible talent. "Les Fleurs" was the first thing I came across decades ago. What a song. Pretty cool Maya Rudolph (her daughter) has had such a fantastic acting / comedy career.
I play this all the time. What a groove. I thank A Tribe Called Quest for putting me onto this. They sampled this gem for their 1993 song 'Lyrics to Go'. Minnie's vocal chops are almost unparalleled. Its nuts how she carries notes in the highest of registers.
One of the most beautiful voices that have ever existed. "Lovin ' you" live on the show Midnight special is surely one of her best performances. Another magnificent voice is that of Marylin MacCoo of the group Fifth dimension: "One less bell to answer" is a wonderful song. You are full of energy, and it is very pleasant to listen to your reactions. 🖐️🇨🇵
I mean people don't know Dizzy Gillespie or Ella Fitzgerald or lots of musical icons from times past. It depends on your age and musical taste. Some are limited.
Minnie Ripperton has the highest range pitch there is and she could hold those notes. If you've seen Saturday Night Live, her daughter is Maya Rudolph. Check out her song: "Lovin' You". Talking about purest love, that was between her and her husband.
That album cover is from Perfect Angel. This song is from Adventures in Paradise with the lion on the cover. That being said, I loved your first reaction knowing you had NO idea what was coming later in the song. That was 27 seconds on that NOTE!!! Totally 🔥🔥🔥❤💯
@@TorreanoLamont Trust me, it was 27 seconds. It ended about 7 seconds before the final course. One of me and my first love girlfriend’s favorite songs. I remember her every time I hear it.🥰❤️❤️
That famous lion cover for Adventures in Paradise ... with a story. The lion on the cover was fine -- he didn't bother Minnie, but then they filmed a promotional video for the album and a different lion had to be used. That lion got a little friendly when Minnie sat down on the chair near it and they had to rush in and get Minnie out of there. She had an "adventure" that day for sure!
I'm glad you talked about the depth of the song. I mean yeah, there's a sexual tone to it, but she's talking about knowing a person as deep as you can possibly know another human being. And that voice was just unreal.😅
Glad to see you learning about the greats from the past. Make sure you look at her live version. Singers back then didn't get help in the studio. Nobody was going to touch up their vocals digitally. Watch the live stuff and you will see.
You know her daughter name is Maya Rudolpha she is a actress and comedian you seen her before she's been on Saturday night live grown ups lot movies TV shows
+1 for Loving You by Minnie.....also and at the opposite of the scale.....have a listen to (as you said in a previous video that you were liking guitar) have a listen to Lenny Kravitz - Are you gonna go my way....

I'm hoping her daughter child will want to sing
She recorded five or six albums, but passed away in 1979 at 31 from breast cancer. Gone too soon.
Actress comedian Maya Rudolph is Minnie Riperton‘s daughter. Thanks for the reaction. Her most famous song is “loving you”
Minnie Riperton - Les Fleurs is a fav of mine. Such a heady song...reminds me of long summers.
She was saying it both ways. Written with her husband initially meaning spiritually while knowing exactly what they were also saying. Reasons and le fleur are so great among so many
Yes,she held the note. No machinery
So sad she went so young. She really was an incredible talent. "Les Fleurs" was the first thing I came across decades ago. What a song.

Minnie Ripperton had an amazing voice she hits even higher notes in her biggest hit Loving You. 😊
I had never heard of her either, so thanks for introducing me. What an incredible voice, and yes, that note WOW!
Watch Minnie Ripertons Highest Notes !

@@Sodampurtie1 super light work 😭😭

That's why us old heads be complaining about the music today. We were VERY spoiled. Lol!! Great reaction to my favorite female singer EVER.

Yess Ms Minnie Riperton with the vocal range RIP 🙏🏽
Maya Rudolph's mother (for you young folk...)
How can people not know of Minnie Ripperton? She had one of the biggest hits of the 70’s with Loving You.
I mean people don't know Dizzy Gillespie or Ella Fitzgerald or lots of musical icons from times past. It depends on your age and musical taste. Some are limited.
it was nearly 50 years ago. think about whether you knew lots of pop hits from that far ahead of your birth.
Great reaction! another suggestion is "Memory Lane" By Minnie, one of her best songs
The groove and the note overlaps the content of the song. Perfection

You should review the live version.
You should definitely check out her live performance of the song "Loving you".

It may be longer than that because if you pay close attention they fade the note out

I'm glad you talked about the depth of the song. I mean yeah, there's a sexual tone to it, but she's talking about knowing a person as deep as you can possibly know another human being.
And that voice was just unreal.😅
Her song les fleur is my favorite song in the world.❤❤❤
