My mom was a singer. (For real.) One of her showstoppers was “Killing Me Softly With His Song”.
I remember being like 6, and thinking “DAMN that’s a good song”

Roberta Flack is oddly underrated… Yes, she won Grammys on successive years, but her records languished in the “easy listening” bins for years. Give her another listen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VC5cHoqX4aI #RobertaFlack #RIPRobertaFlack
#RIPRobertaFlack 💔🥺 she was an amazing and gifted artist. How sad. How so very sad.
RIP Roberta Flack.
Roberta Flack was a wonderful wonderful soul singer, and if she had only ever recorded The First Time Ever I Saw You Face she would still have been regarded as a superstar, but she did so much more.... not least a fabulous team-up with Donny Hathaway & the disco classic Back Together Again...

"The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face": Blu-ray copy of "Play Misty for Me" already well in transit this morning as I learn of her passing. What's more, another song stirs memories of the unrequited: "Killing Me Softly With His Song."
