'Killing Me Softly With His Song' and 'The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face' are not only among the greatest songs of the 1970s, but of all time. R.I.P. Roberta Flack.

The 70's was a gold mine. One of the best gifts this life has given me.

Discovering this OG version in 2023 is crazy...

I always tear up, one of my Favorite Songs. No auto-tune, Perfect Melodic tones, no swearing or sexual context, just beauty. Happy Tuesday!

A giant among female singers. A great loss!

It will never get better than this. As great as Lauryn Hill is, this song belongs to Roberta Flack. I just love her here.

I picked up Miss Flack from the airport once in the Tampa Bay area and took her to her hotel then to her venue in Clearwater. I built up the courage to ask her to sing me a verse of this song which she did. It was a magical moment.

None of the covers do justice to this version. I remember hearing this song on the radio as a child, it was one of my favorite ballads.

Absolutely beautiful! Loved this in 1973 (the year I graduated HS), love it now!

It's not very endearing to praise someone, but putting down another ... but it's the times we live. Everyone is a singer today, and most of them can make it through a song...maybe pressing too hard at times. Watching RF sing this provides a visual of someone who is all natural, not trying to blow away every note.
