Ms,Minnie was and still is THE TRUTH.

[iluvmyboba]

First...Minnie rips up your microphone with her sweet, sultry, incredible vocals.

[MsToiBox]

I can feel what you're saying....One of my Favorites!!

[reginabellestar]

This is live singing!!!! note for note or should i say super high notes!!! Perfect Angel!!!

[jrwnubianqueen]

I was in Basic Training in 1979 when Minnie passed away. I was really sad when she passed. Minnie still is one of the greatest female artist ever. This young girls just moan and can't really sing with soul. RIP MINNIE ..YOU ARE GREATLY MISSED

[Traycuzsex]

my fave female artist ever!.........her voice is so AMAZING!......

[CoCMember]

I love Minnie Riperton! Rest on Love!!!

MY FAVORITE ALL TIME SINGER. WHEN I WAS RAISING MY CHILDREN AND IN A BAD RELATIONSHIP, MINNIE'S MUSIC HELPED ME GET THROUGH MANY TOUCH DAYS. THANK YOU SOO MUCH FOR POSTING THIS CLASSIC PIECE. THIS IS REAL SINGING, NOT THAT CRAP THAT IS ON THE RADIO TODAY!

[jetit]

[beachfanatic2010]

[MySoulSanctuary]

Brings tears to my eyes everytime. She reaches my soul. Thank you Minnie.

[iyamt]

What a sensual song !

[mange12fire]

Ibought his album for my husband valentines day 1979 on black disc . he has past on i listen to minnie every once in a while to much memories.

[kinstube]

WOWZERZ !!!!!!!!!

[PROPODKINSBRO72]

simply the greatest female soul singer ever

[mjjcng8958]

she always makes me cry. i mean you can feel her emotions and you can really feel what she's sayin

[JNROB7576]

@mjjcng8958 wow, when i listen to minnie i am happy, but i cry as well. it's beautiful music that brings back so many memories and i will never forget when i saw her on the johnny carson show and she announced that she had breast cancer. it was chilling!. we miss her dearly. ms. carrie ain't got nothing on ms. ripperton.

[ExTriv]

I grew up listening to this version on vinyl. This one definitely brings back memories. Thank you!

[TijuanaMohorn]

Not my favorite song by Minnie, but beautiful non the less. I really miss Minnie R

[Zyntax7]

The live version sounds even better than the recorded version. I didn't even think that was possible. Minnie was truly gifted!

[saffyre915]

I love this song. Minnie's voice just blows me away. So much passion...and the instrumentations, back up.. they're just having a jam session. I'm glad it was recorded. Thanks for posting this.

[ijgibbs]

My all time favorite song of hers. I've always wanted to know what it was to feel that kind of passion for someone else.

[slimbrotherluv]

except Cater 2 U and Crazy In Love are the only ones I like but it probably has more to do with the overkill than me not liking the other stuff....I remember they use to Janet Jackson like that hard in the 90's too and I felt the same way 

[slimbrotherluv]

this is a very special and underappreciated gift ....once again my criticism is with socalled black radio....not that I'm coming down on Alicia Keys but here in the Triad region they play that song 'like you never see me again practically every hour on the hour....now its a excellent song but come on ...you may hear Minnie Riperton's Lovin You once every 6 months....and we wont talk about how they beat beyonce into your eardrum. I change the radio everytime I hear something by her

[Pmutley]

oh wow, im getting in touch with Minnie Riperton songs right now, and this is just perfect... taste love making music, sensual and so tender

R.I.P. beautiful

from Brazil, P. V.

[SinTroNeX]

She's incredible!

[1d3j8m]

where can i get this live recording?

[RaceIsOpen]

to dang good! her vocal abilities was endless and her strange (unorthodox) melodies! just perfect and love that whisper voice she used too!

[Brinah]

thank you all for liking this! no dislikes! :)

[queenray1]

Why are pop artists being mentioned on this comment section, It's sacrilege, Lets not mention anyone but Minnie's name in our comments, anyway she was not a commercial artists, only few of her songs were popular, but yeah she was Great

[MrAjohnson58]

gone too, too soon! You hear what I'm saying!

[QueenTea01]

You were an amazing human mocking bird. Your voice is irriplacable. You have left your fans with a gift that is overwhelming. You are truley missed Miss Legendary Minnie Riperton. Beautiful, encore, this you still are. Skyy da Boojwah

[vangoghmatisse]

MARIAH IS SO MUCH LIKE MINNE JUST AWSOME!!!!

[elkin76]

Wow! That was awesome!!

[jamvf]

I think I can feel what she's saying. Love it!

[kyereCat]

WILD!!!!! She's singing this song live? She is truly a perfect angel. Love you, sweet heart!

[RaceIsOpen]

what I liked about her, is that she had a strong regular singing voice! could also hit low notes...so she was'nt just known for those incredible high pitches. Not to mention, that she is the only woman that I know of that can sound very good in that "whispering" style vocals that she would use, at times. Stunning vocalist

[RaceIsOpen]

stuunnniiinnnggg!

[horatiomontel]

Love is all in her voice when she sing this song and i can hear and feel what she is sayin im so greatful for the gift of song and the message that it brings and she is the only one who could sing like this if you think it a joke tell me why mariah or any singer that says they have the keys to do what she did have never remade one of her songs

[Ultimatediva29]

Thank you so much for sharing this; it's my ALL TIME FAVOURITE Minnie song! I have the "Best of" album and it's simply mind-blowing!

[glory1ify]

love this woman

[mamashekere]

The name of the song is "Can You Feel What I'm Saying?"

[heygirrrrrl]

What happened to the larger file version of this song?

[neworleans504fresh]

she did her thing

[kvunderstand]

Is the title of this song, "LOVE SUPREME"

[toxsickdog]

I feel what She's sayin & I'm diggin it.

she was out of this world.

[pegasus2001c]

For those who think the over-rated Whitney Houston is "The Voice", think again. Minnie Riperton is the whole definition of what "The Voice" means!

[nikedunk91]

The best singer in the world.

This is my favorite song from her.

The True Queen of Whistle Register.

[tasiawful1]

hauntingly beautiful song her voice is totally amazing.....and she singing live

[poshvuli]

Wow, that's all I'm going to say, AMAZING!! Mariah was inspired by her high notes!!

[dalfinbrooklyn]

this is my favorite live version of any song EVER!!! The emotion in Minnie's singing is incomparable. I get chills when I hear her sing it! GONE TOO SOON!!! There will NEVER be another like her.

[Ultimatediva29]

Keep your Beyonce's, Maria's, Alycia's..Minnie was just off the damn hook! This is THE.ABSOLUTELY,BEST. Minnie Ripperton track...EVER!

[Screamingdk]

Alycia's the real deal bebouncie is a bad joked created by the media to sell shit to fools.

[indaplace2b]

@Ultimatediva29 It gets a bit mundane when peeps start comparing Minnie to singers of today. Minnie was good at what she did. I love her music to bits and its a shame she is mainly known for "Loving you" because she did so much but i also believe Mariah, Beyonce Alicia ect are good at what they do and also talented. if anything they have tried (sucessfully or unssucesfuly) to push music futher. Can we really say what Minnie would have sounded like had she been exposed toays music such as hiphop?

[xiloves]

@Ultimatediva29 ...thats real talk.. she was ...there are no words...i Love her voice, demeanor...she had grace and beauti. to go with her godly vocals. She had substance for that reason alone you can't compare her to these new artist. They just don't move me.

[dinmc808]

@Ultimatediva29 I agree with you. It's amazing when an artist creates a song that can truly felt by hundreds and thousands of others even though they might not be the most famous of superstars. This song always tears at my heartstrings

[melvin1123]

@Ultimatediva29 Dont put mariah in the same category as beyonce and Alicia,mariah made beautiful music when first came out and do have rememberable songs unlike the other 2 ,hotep

[uhavechrist]

wonderful

[beenREALsince89]

this was live? f-ing amazing.

[ayabtiyah2004]

intense wasn't it ?

[ImhotepRamses]

i have tears/out - 3rd song from her. wow excellent

[LJMO85]

Fabulous !!!!!! maybe my fav minnie riperton song

[btinsley1]

Daaaaag....can you feel that emotion ? The sound of sincerity ?  Yearning to be loved and understood?

~ gorgeous baby ! ~

[periquitoazul7]

mINNIE i LOVE YOU FOREVER

[jetit]

Decadence at it's finest! Thank for sharing....

[militaryminded85]

[origjazz]

Tears of joy! wow!!!

[latincrush23]

[mommasoto]

[queenmajesty1983]

I have her cd Petals and that cd is off the chain.

[freakumboy09]

GoOD sOng!!! thank u 4 posting

[Walib]

seriously? live?

wow

thanks 4 postin

[dinmc808]

Panxasolis you really show you love this artist as much as I do! The slideshow and this tune is amazing - i've only heard the studio version before and it always gets to me. This live version and the effortless way she performs it is even better because you know for sure that in no way has the recording been touched up. I just feel like sitting here and crying my eyes out that she has gone from us and I will never ever see her perform.

[panxosolis]

Yeah!, when i heard this live i just couldn't believe it!...it is so hard to find Minnie's live performances and that kind of stuff...

I was born in 1993 in Chile! (South America)so for me is sooo much hard to find Minnie's stuff!

[jonathan834756]

@panxosolis i was born 1983 and love her stuff! i discovered her 2 years ago, now have all her cds. you can find them on amazon ! you have to get come to my garden, and perfect angel - adv in paradise

[OCTAVELUV1]

@dinmc808 oh how i agree 100% with you.she was Amazing.miss you Minnie i wish there was a visual recording of this concert.

[dinmc808]

@OCTAVELUV1 Somewhere on you tube there is a snippet from one of her live concerts where she is singing "Lovin' You". I imagine that this is probably from the same concert, so some lucky person has got the full length concert somewhere."Can you Feel What I'm Saying" is still my all time fave Minnie track - aside from the unique lyrics and expert delivery it's a song that reminds me of someone really special in my life

[Elcosmicstar1]

@dinmc808 Yeah! I feel you, I couldn't say it any better, my eyes are filled right now.

[jonathan834756]

@dinmc808 i love her more :)

[boldandincontrol]

I LOVE this song.

My mother bought this CD when I was about 9 years old.

I know every song on the best of CD.

I just bought the Capitol Gold version because its on itunes and it appeared to have all the same songs, except it doesn't have the live versions of MY FAVORITE songs ever.

:-(

^^ Big sad face

[superleo30317]

That C7 at the end is so strong! I wish I could see it recorded or something lol

[mcarey]

where did u get this from? can you post the link to the mp3? or what is the name of the album this live performance is on?

[Sparks0245]

It's on her 'best of' cd

[lynniepoo1]

i have the best of minnie and i haven't pulled it out in a while. it's going in the rotation today!

[theemotions]

She just hits those high notes like it's nothing! it's just breathingly easy for her. Her voice was just touched by an angel from heaven! She is still with us, in every songbird that sings and tweets sweetly! Her talent can NEVER be duplicated!

[sharondamedia]

If they have a live album from her I really need to go cop because I never knew this existed.Exciting!I love it!

[MsTexas73]

I know that's right!

[panxosolis]

In The best of Minnie Riperton, there are kind of 3 live songs + 2 "moments with Minnie"

[kirz778]

WOW!!

[QTPieP2]

Yes!!

[HevanL]

Beautiful!
