P.S. Is she saying "Maya" at the end of her song?....I think she is, but wasnt sure,,that would be like her to add her daughter's name to her song... awww...so beautiful!
@jentx77642 Yep. She was saying "Maya" at the end of the song, in relation to her daughter Maya. Because the melody for "Lovin' You" was created as a distraction for her daughter when she was a baby so that Minnie and her husband Richard could hang out.
Oh My God...How is it all the super and real talented people leave this earth too soon!...What a classy gorgeous lady .I loved her style, she had so much grace and that voice was simply amazing! She is the "singing bird"!...RIP Mrs. RIperton.

I had no idea that talented, silly little comedic actress Maya Rudolph comes from such good stock. I hope she gets as much joy from this recording as the world does--threefold and that it doesn't make her sad.
@binstence this song isn't very hard, at least not for someone that can whistle. (whistle register) so it's not too hard while sitting, but she is amazing.
@binstence well, my friend. not that much imposible. but the minie's singing is not just about that, but she was a complet artist, singing whit the most deep feelings of her soul. actually, no one will never know her secret, and, personally, i don't want it, just hear her and delight myself. I wish the today's musicians could hit my brain like she did.
@binstence That is very true....I just love how Minnie sang to her daughter, Maya in this song. She really loved her hubby and kids and I can feel that when I hear this song.
Incredible voice. The producers had to be convinced to release this song and it went gold and to the top of charts around the world, pulling the album "Perfect Angel" to gold status with it. "Maya" is her baby daughter.
Love the way she succinctly sings her daughter's name towards the end. She was a very special woman and her loss was a loss to the whole world. The Lord wanted her home with him, and the Lord alone knows what she could have given to the world if only she had been allowed to stay a little while longer. Rest peacefully angel....
@THEmotownboy Sho you right!! She has a wonderful voice. So easy to her. My all time favorite female VOICE.Miss her much. Love to you Minnie Riperton!!
Leona Lewis of X Factor fame, Minnie Ripperton (riperton) of EPIC Records fame covered LOVING YOU, by The Child Star, Singer-Songwriter of LOVING YOU Thomas J Mitchell
The song was not about Maya; but about her hubby, Richard and her. They wrote the song as they were, just being together; enjoying each other. In fact the song wasn't even supposed to be released. But since the song recieved more radio airplay and hit no. 1; they decided that it would be more appropriate to dedicate the song to their daughter and her special someone....hence the "Maya" tribute at the end
Does everyone know that Minnie wrote this song about her daughter, Maya Rudolph, from Saturday Nite Live? Just a sweet fact I thought I'd share. Maya looks so much like her!
I don't think so. And I quote part of the song ................"Everytime that we oooooh" I don't think she would have written that in, if she was thinking about her daughter. Just a thought :)
Minnie was mother to Maya Rudolph from Saturday night live..... who does impersonations of Michelle Obama.. Oprah... Donnatella etc...... hows that for trivia

To be honest, I've often heard this song from childhood. However, I've not ever really known even a singer who sing this song.
Maybe, if You Tube didn't emerge on the Internet, I would not be able to acquire the information about this song and Minnie Riperton.
I have a great thankfulness for the website.
