Killing Me Softly With His Song

My wife and I were together for 67 years and married for 62 of them. People say how could you last that long, didn't you fight, I said only verbally never hitting. Love and respect is the paste that keeps things going, and this song explains it. She died 5 years ago and I miss her every day. Thanks, George Traganos

70 years old man here this song always makes me cry and I'm not ashamed to say it love love love this thankyou Roberta xxx

高一の時ソウルミュージックに出会いました。何故か感動でなみだが出る曲の多い事😂 よく、友達とマンハッタンに踊りに行きました。 赤坂、六本木、渋谷のディスコ… 懐かしいです❤

My late mother taught me a rudimentary 2-handed arrangement of this song on the piano when I was 8 or so, it was one of the first songs that really struck an emotional chord in me (Beatles songs, "Close To You" and "Bridge Over Troubled Water" being some others) and that I asked her to teach me. Incredibly fond memories of it, and her. She also taught me to play "Up A Lazy River", "Alexander's Ragtime Band", "The Entertainer", the ice cream truck song (wish I knew what it was called, but it was very lovely), and finally "Daniel" by Elton John. Beautiful times in the early-mid '70s.

Gorgeous, timeless song by the incomparable Roberta Flack.😊

The 70s had some of the best music ever. Todays music can't even compare.

Nobody did it like her. Her voice and vibe never gets old. Pure beauty.

I could listen to this song so many times without getting bored. The vibe, the voice, instruments, it’s all so beautiful

Roberta Flack treats this song like poetry, which is an artistic skill that musicians of today simply cannot duplicate. Roberta Flack will always be a part of the golden era of 1970s and 1980s contemporary music. I give this song a thumbs-up. :-)

This song is proof that the best songs have already been written

コーヒーのCMで使われた懐かしい曲❤

I can't forget this song. When I was 15years, this song comforted me . But naw,I was an old woman. 時が過ぎ去り、体は老いたが、心はあの頃と変わっていない。とても懐かしい歌。

This and "Fir Stime Ever I saw Your Face" had me convinced this woman was some kind of musical sorceress. As a boy, I just remember simply leaving reality and being washed in the sheer emotion of both of these songs. "Killing...." and "First Time..." can STILL make me shiver, even now. I guess Ms Flack IS a musical sorceress, if she can still haunt me like these recordings do!

Nothing can beat the original. Thank You Roberta for sharing your talents

Absolutely beautiful.. right down to my soul!!

One of the few songs that will stop me in my tracks when I hear it. Roberta's voice is pure beauty and joy.

My excuse for the fugees, but this original is simply by far the best❤

This is one of those songs that, in the first bars, sends me back to that simpler time of my youth.

I wish young singers had a quarter of the talent the legends of the 70's and 80's had.

名曲素晴らしいです❤今も聴いている人❤
