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...
Great song, I like how the Orb uses it too.

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.
Maya hi Maya ha Maya ho Maya ha-ha
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.
