Colbie Caillat - Killing Me Softly ( iTunes Session )

[@SnailHugger123]

I've been looking for this version for THREE YEARS!!! I didn't know who sang it when i heard and oh my gosh... I LOVE IT.

[@Ghosu519]

glad u found it.

[@zLuxz]

I love how airy and soft her voice is. She has a sound that makes you want to smile and go to sleep with sweet dreams.

[@kathleensackmann1832]

one of the great work I have ever heard. Thanks for the great work of art.

[@TeriBass-l4h]

Colby puts this rendition back on the top! This song is absolutely mesmerizing! There are a few songs out there that just can't measure up to the original and I do mean the wonderful "Roberta Flack". Thank you colby for your rendition. I have listened to this song 6 times now. I am simply blown away!

[@jeffreywallis358]

One of the best remakes I've ever heard and I was a huge fan of the 1972 original

[@TheJamiedmusic]

Quickly falling in love with Colbie and her beautiful voice! She is Talent, at it's finest! So pure!

[@Skyshark333]

@htwu226 the original was not sang by lauren hill, why do people always comment with a wrong answer. It was first recorded by Lori Lieberman in 1971. Its been covered by many artists over the years most notable are Roberta Flack in 1973 and The Fugees in 1996.

[@hersheythao]

Wow! I think I just feel even more in love with Colbie.

[@rezafd90]

Absoluetly stunning voice and great choice of song for her to do... i know i sound like simon from American Idol but Colby Caillat is a stunning person with a stunning voice!!

[@aher15]

this song is laden with emotions of heartbreaks and pain...i've never really felt its essence until i heard colbie's cover of it. beautiful!

[@glenyapolinario7082]

i love this song..it really touched my heart...hope for more version..

[@prettyinnpeenk]

such a soothing voice..and the piano adds to it! Amazing!!

[@HeatherChristiemusic]

Nice, sweet soulful version... easy listening... heartfelt.

[@DEBRACRANFORD]

What a beautiful rendition of this song. Among so many other artists that have done this beautiful song...Colbie's version brought me to tears. And indeed its about the wonderful Don Mclean.

[@Eviejean87]

Goosebumps. Goosebumps everywhere. Exquisitely emotional and powerful. Lauryn Hill's version is iconic, and now I have another version to treasure closely. Brought tears to my eyes.

[@mcdshannon]

Roberta Flack!

[@HYVMYND]

I can't stop listening to this song! I love it soo much it's wonderful!

[@LorrieSweetLife]

Amazing!!! Colbie's performance is the best!!!

[@klk5495]

no other person can sing this beautifully. this women has so much talent. :)

[@kennyk821]

Colbie Can sing just about anything and I will love it!!! Beautiful song, beautiful voice, best version ive ever heard!

[@747qantas]

Outstanding. Excellent vocals. I appreciated the piano and mix of the whole song too. Kudos to the guy at the end, great blend. Roberta Flack was the original artist of this if I recall, this beat that. Bruce Rowland did a piano version once that was also outstanding.

[@MarchingBandGeek171]

Nope. The original was done by Lori Lieberman. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing_Me_Softly_with_His_Song

[@formerlyarandompropernameb9327]

.....”Beat that”?? Really????? Seriously?!!!but I respect that people have different taste and ideas about what is good

[@PanteraRush]

your voice is killing me softly !!!! i love that crunchy but tender voice

[@byygr]

This is the best version I've ever heard no matter who sang it first

[@shairamelchor84]

i love this song so beautiful...and her voice is just amazing

[@mkindig14]

her voice is gorgeous.

[@747qantas]

Very nice indeed. Visual very distracting but music is awesome. Harmony too. Love the piano - really added the dimension the song needed and slower tempo made it very interesting. The necessary texture was there! Want more. Roberta Flack's original was great, Lauryn Hills was fantastic (without the weird chanting in the mix) but this tops them all. Well done.

[@strawberryseason]

This is phenonmenal

[@MsLadyCatherine]

Great cover ! so beautiful !!!

[@manekineko4092]

Bravo! beautiful and wonderful

[@julieroma2801]

[@phillinnejoyceencarnacion293]

[@emeralddistrito2119]

from the intro to the last still having goosebumps!! good for those who sober

[@JermeenNasr]

The most amazing cover , i've ever heard

[@MsPinkStaples]

Strumming my pain with his fingers Singing my life with his words Killing me softly with his song Killing me softly with his song Telling my whole life with his words Killing me softly with his song I heard he sang a good song I heard he had a style And so I came to see him To listen for a while And there he was this young boy A stranger to my eyes Strumming my pain with his fingers Singing my life with his words Killing me softly with his song Killing me softly with his song Telling my whole life with his words Killing me softly with his song I felt all flushed with fever Embarassed by the crowd I felt he found my letters And read each one out loud I prayed that he would finish But he just kept right on Strumming my pain with his fingers Singing my life with his words Killing me softly with his song Killing me softly with his song Telling my whole life with his words Killing me softly with his song He sang as if he knew me In all my dark despair And then he looked right through me As if I wasn't there And he just kept on singing Singing clear and strong Strumming my pain with his fingers Singing my life with his words Killing me softly with his song Killing me softly with his song Telling my whole life with his words Killing me softly with his song [Break] Strumming my pain with his fingers Singing my life with his words Killing me softly with his song Killing me softly with his song Telling my whole life with his words Killing me He was strumming my pain Yeah, he was singing my life Killing me softly with his song Killing me softly with his song Telling my whole life with his words Killing me softly With his song

[@xLadyxOrchidx]

@acwint you're even more wrong than I am LOL Although Roberta Flack may be known for being the original recording artist, it was actually released by Lori Lieberman in 1972. Roberta Flack released her recording in 1973. The Fugees (Lauryn Hill, Wyclef Jean, & Pras Michel) had a hit with their 1996 cover.

[@xLadyxOrchidx]

Amazing interpretation and rendition of the Fugees' original. Love how teases the listener to hang onto her every word with the way she slowly sings each note. I just might set this song as my alarm to gently coax and wake me every morning. :]

[@MarchingBandGeek171]

There were many different versions of this song before the Fugees did it. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing_Me_Softly_with_His_Song

[@Tuzom]

Love her version...

[@kikiwilson3161]

I love colbie caillat! she's unique! she's not like other artist.

loving this!

[@YeshuaisShekinah]

Seeing as how I remember the original play on the AM radio, let me say Ms.Cailat has done an outstanding performance with this soulful version of the original song. My only suggestion would be female backup vocals only.

[@nathalietay_]

[@SickaydaMars]

You had me in tears.

[@Jonbwriter]

I was in grade school when Roberta Flack's version came out. I was too young to appreciate the words, I just thought it was a pretty song, but now I know and love it all the more for that.

[@Hawkesite]

According to Lori Lieberman, the artist who performed the original recording, the song was born of a poem she wrote after experiencing a strong reaction to the song "Empty Chairs," written, composed, and recorded by Don McLean.
