I heard this old gem over the weekend and now it’s stuck in my head, so I thought I’d post it here and get it stuck in your head too. 

How embarrassing for me to have looked up this video and, never having seen Minnie Ripperton before, I find out that she looks nothing like the skinny blonde elf that I had pictured my whole life. I had however pictured the Baby’s Breath in her hair, so that was true to my mental image. I thought there would be golden light, a lot of vaseline smeared on the lens, perhaps a field and some sort of white gauzy dress blowing in the breeze. They did bring out the white cage with a dove though, that was a nice touch I hadn’t thought of.

From Wikipedia:
Minnie Julia Riperton (November 8, 1947 – July 12, 1979) was an American soul singer and songwriter, most noted for her abilities in the whistle register and her 1975 hit single “Lovin’ You“. Possessing a rare five-octave vocal range, she displayed the ability to imitate instrumentation and even birds.
