This song is the definition of SPLENDID! It is absolutely EXTRAORDINARY! It makes you FEEL LIFE in all it’s grandeur! Not only does it bring me to TEARS OF JOY, it humbled me to EXPERIENCE LIFE and NOT TAKE BABY STEPS THROUGH IT! OUTSTANDING!

Such a superb voice.She left us way too soon.Her music is legacy.😢🙏❤
INDEED
People think this is just a simple song but it's quite complex! She sings this so gracefully! Her voice FLOATS! Brings me to tears every time.

It is my favorite song. It actually brings me joy in any situation.
It boggles my mind to think that anyone could think that this is a simple song! Really?
Absolutely !
who thinks that ?
This is such a magnificent song. It has been off the radar for a long time. Kudos to Jordan Peele and the "Us" movie for reintroducing it to music lovers in 2019.
Alleycat1921 brilliantly
Spike Lee's BBC Radio 6 playlist for me... And then in Us again a month or two after that.
Jordan Peele more like Microsoft
I was ignorant of her music other than "Loving You." When I heard this in the Microsoft ad I thought it had an old school feel, went searching, and here I am. Now I want to explore her music.
Minnie Riperton 70’s, soundtrack to my life.
I would encourage everyone to listen to the entire album "Come to My Garden". It is timeless. Easily, among my favorite albums of all time!
How have I never heard this song? Thanking Jordan Peele and ‘Us’ for getting me here.
Same!
Same
me too
I've been around 52 yrs and now scratching my head too. This year a TV commercial and a movie introduced me to this piece of audio gold. How utterly beautiful!
Me ether
2019 and I am still being BLOWN away by MINNIE RIPERTON! She was an Angel or Goddess or something!!
For real tho. I love her!
@@WaveAgency LOL I was literally about to write, "Like 4 REAL tho!"
Her Daughter Is A Famous Comedian Maya! Very Talented! Blessed!!!
@@CoreyAndrewmedia Ayee same frequency!
now it’s 2022 😳
Maya was ADORABLE, my heart goes out to her loosing her Mother at such a young age
I see so much of her mother in her. Absolute beauties the pair of them.
Only physically, Love.
Maya never *_truly_* lost Minnie.💎
♾☯️🧠⚖️💜☮️♾
RIP Grandma! This beautiful tune replays in my mind when I think of you.
Your Grandma was a phenomenal GEM
@@clifftoncrowder7775 thank you 😊
Such a great song & her voice what can I say amazing 🤩 as influencale she was it's amazing more people don't talk about her smh 🥺 RIP
The one and only Minnie Riperton! Have not heard that beautiful voice in ages. She could sing 4 octaves. My God she could sing like no other! Gone too soon at age 31 in 1978. Thank you for this!
Andy...most welcome...thanks!!
Correction 5 octaves and she passed July 12 1979
5 octaves unbelivible, shie died too soon in arms of her huspen in hospital😥😥😥😥
This song should have been a bigger hit . God it’s wonderful!! Minnie just makes it perfect !! I love it !!
It’s 2023, and I’ve only just discovered Minnie sang this classic 😱
This song gives me chills in the best way possible. I love it.
Minnie’s voice was so angelic and beautiful and she could hit high notes with ease. Gone too soon.
I saw the Roterey Connection. A bunch of times as a teenager in Chicago she was always stunning and beautiful and classy . And that voice. They we're totally pychodelic then mezmerizing light show and performance .
OMG Maya Rudolph with such a cute little girl! What a talented family. I'm so sad that she lost her mom so young Minnie Riperton was a huge loss.
Minnie Riperton was pure talent, a Gem 💎 🎵 🎶 🎵
Will somebody wear me to the fair?
Will a lady pin me in her hair?
Will a child find me by a stream?
Kiss my petals and weave me through a dream.
For all of these simple things and much more a flower was born
It blooms to spread love and joy faith and hope to people forlorn
Inside every man lives the seed of a flower
If he looks within he finds beauty and power
Ring all the bells sing and tell the people that be everywhere that the flower has come
Light up the sky with your prayers of gladness and rejoice for the darkness is gone
Throw off your fears let your heart beat freely at the sign that a new time is born
Thanks for the lyrics!
To the morning sings a lovely flower.
Giving loving you now sunbeam showers.
Minnie riperton is a gift from God
May God bless her soul
I love this song. She was sooo talent and her voice is out of this world.
This song speaks of peace love harmony and all people getting along with everyone. Listen to it
Minnie with her daughter (Maya Rudolf SNL) … beautiful song (I like the Ramsey Lewis version too) … Great Job!!!
Well...thank you, Pam!!!
I didn’t know that Maia Rudolph was Minnie Riperton‘s daughter. Thanks for the info
Ramsey Lewis' version is the original version with Minnie Ripperton doing melodies on it. This version she added lyrics to the track.
I was a young child during this era of beautiful timeless music. I appreciate it now..
Thanks to "Us" for getting me here. Like Lupita Nyong'o, like the mirrors in the movie, the music, this ending song. Like everything about the movie. And this song just makes me feel happy. I'm ready to pass the mirror. Yes!
A favorite of mine, from one of the most under-rated and slept-on albums in music history!!! Cheers for this one!
Delirious....thanks so much!!!
Used in a commercial so beautiful I hope more young people find her music, Angel Riperton.
MINNIE RIPERTONS voice was full of PURE BLESSED ABILITY🎤 Her vocal range was effortless!!!
This is a GREAT Music & Melodic arrangement!!! The 9 people who gave this Song a 'Thumbs Down' DO NOT have clue & definitely don't know GOOD MUSIC!!! #LongLiveMINNIESmusicalContribution
Minnie Riperton American singer👍...November 8 th 1947-------July 12th 1979.💜 Taken far far far far too early❤️❤️❤️ R.I.P in eternal light in God's realm....amen
I live Minnie!! Loved her for years, glad to hear this song in a Surface computer commercial. Her music is timeless!!
She was a visionary! So ahead of her time! Miss her terribly😓
You will never hear music like this anymore. Thank you mini Ripperton
Back in 1991..Black Sheep sampled it on Similak Child. Hip Hop has always introduce ppl to classics.
Mark Dickerson Slimm “Cutta” Calhoun sampled it on “It’s Ok” #DungeonFamily
The Jeneral J.U.-ICE That was my joint!!! Rode down Campbellton Rd all summer long listening this!!! Plus it banged in the strip clubs!!! 😏😏😎
I’m from Atlanta, born and raised!!! Dungeon Family and Attic Crew!!!
They sampled the original version which is "Les Fleurs" by Ramsey Lewis. "Les Fleurs" is where this song came from, it had Minnie perform melodies on it, she later added lyrics and it became this song.
This beautiful song unleashes emotions in me...makes me cry and dont know why....
Glad to have gotten a chance to hear this song Love how she portrays herself as a butterfly in the beginning of the song I'm glad I saw the movie Us and got the chance to hear this song beautiful lovely song
Masterpiece, im listening often this song, the song that gives hope which is stronger then fear!!! She dies in hands of her huspand in hospital, it touch me a lot 😭😭😭
Still loving minnie....she will sing in in our hearts forever 💖
This television commercial brought me here. Had no idea Minnie sang this song...Love this song.
Great! I've always loved anything by Minnie. She was one of my and my sisters favorite. Now my adult children play her music.
Darlene...many thanks!!
Me too! My son and daughter love her too! My daughter sang Minnie's Give Me Time to my mom at her 80th birthday party in May. She had just been released from the hospital after a month's stay. She had been in and out the hospital and rehabilitation centers for the past 5 years. She was a fighter! Although she wanted to stay, GOD wanted her more. She passed on 10-10. My daughter sang Give Me Time at her Memorial Service with my husband, her dad, accompanying her on piano. My mom is my Shero, she fought a valiant battle. Mommy, you can tell Minnie all about it when you see her in Heaven. You two can also discuss all things Chi-Town. Rest well you Angels! Enjoy Paradise. Thanks for the upload.
I love this song.... I thought it was a new song because I heard it on a Microsoft commercial. Turns out it was from when I was a little boy.
Thanks Minnie for the great music! We miss you
This is one of those songs that I find difficult to express just how amazingly beautiful it is and on so many levels. It feeds my soul with goodness. Well done Miss Minnie. ❤️👌🏻
Sooo beautifull and powerfull song, tears in eyes, specially time we live in!!!
Seeing baby Maya with her beautiful songbird Mom is priceless...Thank You Minnie for "Loving You"...gives me an eternal connection to my big sister who used to sing and play that song often...lost her when I was nine and she was thirteen years old
I never heard this song by Minnie Riperton great vocalist 2021 🎵
It's only now I get to see Minnie pix with her daughter Maya (of SNL fame). Thanks for this upload.
You are welcome, Jerry!
The unbiased and innocence of life is personified in this song. As a flower isn't asked to be born neither is a child. I think of my little Girls as this tune plays and rejoice on the joy they bring to my heart.
A pure Angelic voice, pure love and beauty.
Y'all!! I've known about this song, since the 70's!!! Her husband wrote it for her, and they were an INTERRACIAL couple!! Maya Rudolph, the actress and comedian is their daughter!!!!
"" IT'S CALLED MUSIC APPRECIATION "" !!!
"" MUSIC IS LIKE AIR "" !!! "" FOR ME IT IS "" !!
Amazing! Empowering song, love it, I always invincible after listening 🎶 to it!
You extended that last part awesomely. That chorus melody is so powerful !
A peice of genius song writing and execution.
Beautiful picture of mother and child...
🖤🍷
A Microsoft Surface commercial is what brought me here!
Check that whistle register starting about 3:24! Cosmic!
Exactly. She was doing the whistle note in several songs waaaay before Mariah Carey had a music career, but they try to give Carey the credit for the whistle note. Hmm, I wonder why???
All the best music was from the 60's and 70's. Every commercial on tv now has a song in the background from this time.
What and righteous blessed time to alive the 60's and 70's. Enjoy my sister Minnie's awesome voice and god given singing talent and the fantastic musical composition . It's about her love, the beauty and value of every woman that comes from the seed of every man. I loved it in 1970 and I love it now. There are many ways to understand the song and it have worth in itself for every human. It's not just a women's rights song. Never was ! We are connected HaleluYAH !
OH MY GOODNESS OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!
Meliflous! Voice of an angel.
One of the best songs ever!!!!
R.I.P. Minnie Riperton
This was Minnie Riperton's very first single from her debut solo album right after she left the group rotary connection how no one knows this song or this album I do not understand it Ramsey Lewis also was on piano during the recording sessions for this single I'm glad people are finally being exposed to this hidden gem from the perfect angel herself!
There's a story to this song which i will learn. a glimpse of a certain teenage girl i knew that year and know now ... that missing "scat" verse is transcribed as
[Verse 2]
May mosaydee kaylie lowya roses
(May mosaydee kaylie lowya roses)
Say money ain't na na no oh na
(Mmm mmhmm mmm mmm)
Looking for vaydatay breeze x2
May mosaydee Kaylie Ioway roses mmmhmm
So sad we lost this lady so young 😢 just the best female vocalist ever and from what I've heard a beautiful soul as well sleep well minnie your albums inspire millions and when I hear your songs it makes me get up and get on love and respect always from london England x
Beautiful Song. Minnie and The Emotions singing background❤❤❤❤
Didn't know that was the Emotions on background. Alot of talent on this track, the Legendary Maurice White of Earth Wind Fire on drums!!!
MINNIE, TAMMI TERRELL, FLORENCE BALLARD AND CINDY BIRDSONG.....ALL ROLLED INTO ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Written by Richard Rudolph (Minnie's husband) and Charles Stepney (produced on early Earth Wind &Fire albums).
Just beautiful! Peace & Love to all :)
Thanks, Carmen!!
70’s baby
Beautifull classical
Thank you, Raphael!!!
Simply a masterpiece...
My most favorite song!
After hearing this on the radio once....I spent almost 20 years trying to find this song, never knew its name or the artist. Only after hearing it on ''Us'' I finally found it's name.
Aww. Look at little Maya Rudolph
this song and Marlena Shaw California Soul have to be my all time favs
I love the beautiful family photos in this video that go along with this heartfelt beautiful song. I think that Ldy. Minnie Riperton's music should be considered "New Age" Classical.
Great work ! Minnie Riperton from the Rotary Connection .... A lot of pure classical and underated soul sound .... Maybe some other comming ? These made some other masterpieces ...
This might just be the greatest song I've ever listened to in my lifetime. It's on loop for 100+ times already in just one day :/ If I could explain the feeling, I would. For me, it transcends dimensions of space and time...
I heards this song in this comercial of window, but never thought it was minnie with her sweet voice, glad to found this in you tube
Yes, what a wonderful voice!
What an amazing extended song version and also the pictures are sooooo sweet thanks for sharing!
I discoverd this song today with Spotify ! It remind me Kate Bush firsts albums^^
I find the song beautiful, but I hate that The end come too early, even before The end of the chorus
So i'm happy that an extended version exist!
THE PICTURE OF BABY MAYA
Perfection
Beautiful voice and song here:) RIP Angel from above Minnie.
The new Microsoft Surface Touch commercial on TV is what led me to this song. I first admired Minnie's voice on the hit Loving You back in the 70's or so, but this song is more about the arrangement and production, even more so on the pieced snippets of the Microsoft commercial. Never thought I'd say that, but the person who produced that commercial is a genius.
First time hearing this the other day ! Absolutely moved !
such a beautifull and charming song :)
3:23
Everybody's gangsta until Minnie used her whistle voice for the finale... ❤️
Lord have mercy. Maya Rudolph looked so adorable with her mother.
The Surface commercial brought me!!
My favorite female vocalist!!
WOW !!!!!!
Sweeeetttt ❤ 🌹🌼🌺🏵🌻🌱🌷⚘
Yes. This movie get me to search this most beautiful voice. Wow, 😍👏👏🥇

Hidden gem of a song🎶👍
