Minnie passed away just a couple of months after this interview. In the song “Memory Lane” on her final album, she sings “I don’t wanna go..Save me, save me…”. It’s so heart wrenching….

The greatest 🙌 singer who has ever walked the earth.No one has ever touched Minnie Riperton. Not Whitney, Mariah,nor Denise Williams. It's 😢 that you didn't see your beautiful children grow up 😢and your grandchildren are so beautiful. You were robbed of a full life. Cancer is a devil! Rest in heaven 🙏 💔 Queen of Soul music 1947-1979 🎶

soul Classic😊

If I was Minnie, when that lion 🦁, jumped at me.. I would have been singing gospel music.. All my albums covers would have been inside a church ⛪... 😂 😂

I will forever love minne ripperton. God speed my goddess.

Such a condescending interview.

Hey A!! Can I tell everyone you are the sexiest mother of two I ever saw...no doubt... you got men worshipping the ground you walk in black beautiful queen... I'm jealous but of only those other guys not you babe

It says this aired 6/15/79. She passed on 7/12/79. She was very sick.

Wow this is my first time hearing her speaking voice! Beautiful voice

I was 11 years old riding in the back of my momma’s car once and really started paying attention to the words, You Can See inside me? Will You Come Inside Me ? Do You Wanna Ride Inside My Love ? At 11 Years Old this song used to move me 😜😜😜😂😂😂

If Douglas would just shut up…

Whoa! To laugh off being attacked by a lion must be something else. However, she was facing more danger at the time of her interview.

What a stunning looking woman i have only heard about her lately but i love her voice

What A joy RIP 🙏

She was so fierce this is such a hard song to sing and then just facing the camera the whole time she controlled that song!! I love watching her sing this I can feel every word and emotion from her face

It's irritating the way he keeps cutting her off when shes talking

SO SAD, SHE WAS SO SICK HERE, COULD NOT RAISE HER RIGHT ARM AND COULD NOT SING LIVE, DIED ONE MONTH LATER.

Didn’t know she passed so young man 💔 seemed like such a great soul ❤️ and her daughter is maya rudolph wow .. RIP

Purest singing voice i ever heard

Que linda voz hasta para hablar❤ y lindo su esposo q se iba a lanzar sobre el león xd

Wow.. NEVER knew there was a video.. this is gold to a 70 and early eighties baby

"I wasn't hurt", "I think he just wanted to play". The lady was a warrior queen.

She reminds me of Janet Jackson in this video.😍🥰

So beautiful, had an arm covered because of lymphedema and dying from cancer. Such a lovely voice. I lived in the UK back then and bought her early album. Still have it nothing to play it on now. Lol

I love her always ❤

Rest in Peace sister Riperton

Ascended angel HEAVEN SENT THANK YOU

She was so beautiful❤😊

for her to hold that note until the beat switches is fuckin insane🤯

Hey right arm was paralyzed here from cancer

Wait! Cut off just before she sings!! Why??????? ARRRRRGGGGHHHH. No "LIKE" for you!

She passed away a few weeks after this. What a brave woman…what a talent..what a beauty

This aired (6/15/79) almost a month before Minnie passed away, on 7/12/79. Minnie was a very special woman and singer, her voice was angelic and her heart like pure gold. I miss Minnie. Michael Jackson did background vocals on one of her songs called, "Im in love again" which Mike produced & wrote, for Minnie. The song was on Minnie's album entitled: Love lives forever. RIP, Mrs. RIPERTON & Mr. JACKSON. 💖😇👍

You can tell she's in great pain I miss her voice. 💔 😢😔

R.I.P QUEEN.

Bless her heart. She was still holding on to a classy dignified persona and giving her true explanation for what she had accomplished. She was still showing everyone she could be happy and free.

She remained calm and gracious while knowing she was fighting a losing battle. We should be thankful that medicine has come a long way since she had to endure that fight. She was well beyond her years and such a peaceful kind soul.

What an incredible loss

What an amazing beautiful artist. ❤ 🕊️
