I was listening to Emma Stone on Smartless trying to figure out how to explain who she is and don’t ask me how it lead down this insane path.
How is this song for her daughter, when the first verse contains the line “making love with you is all I want to do”?
… Step daughter?
What are you doing?
I just assumed it meant more than sex during that time? Go to the 3 minute mark and she start singing her name around then.
Doing a bit more research, it looks like the melody was created as a lullaby for her daughter. Obviously they repurposed it for this song, but kept in the mentions of Maya as a kind of Easter egg.
Also, shockingly, I found that Minnie died from breast cancer at the age of 31. What a loss of a superb talent.
Yeah, it’s sad and part of what makes me happy seeing this post. Knowing her daughter is a celebrity means Minnie will be remembered that much longer
Coincidentally, I just caught that for the first time this weekend when this song came on the radio while traveling with my wife and daughter. I knew she was Maya’s mom, but I had never noticed her singing her name before hearing it again yesterday…

Hoping somebody’d mentioned them.
And somehow, I learned this version years before I knew of Ripperton’s.

Wolfman Jack!!! Have not seen him in forever. He’s the one introducing the act.
Wow, I remember hearing of Wolfman Jack many years ago as a DJ but don’t think I ever saw him before now. Thanks for that info.
This was the first dance at my parents’ wedding :-)

I find Maya Rudolf to be quite hot.
What just because she’s very attractive, massively talented and super smart? Yeesh.
Daily reminder that literally only nepo babies have a career in entertainment.
I know what you mean, it’s like that in farming too.
