Certainly one can say this: one of the most beautiful songs ever written and recorded, interpreted flawlessly by the incredible Roberta Flack. Stunningly beautiful from the greatest decade in music, the 1970s.

[@craigmarkowski7156]

She had such a interesting life and career , I watched her documentary it was really good ! I've loved her since I was 10 years old and I'm 61 now ! Her music was the soundtrack of the seventies !

[@dontworrybehappy8080]

59 in the house. Love RF. Potentially a dying art (singing natural) now days.

[@craigmarkowski7156]

@@dontworrybehappy8080 , Talent as we once knew it is heading for extinction ! And that's an understatement !

[@infledermaus]

Same here only I was a working adult. Now 70. I ran right to the record store. I had to have it! Such a beautiful love song on top of her glorious voice and beautiful face

[@Deej496]

Wow. Beautiful. Love the reaction... ❤

[@tomaroni6670]

..."Class of 76"...Roberta Flack was one of my "favorites" in my collection of 33Lp's reserved specially for candlelight and wine....now a married man of 65 my wife and I still listen to Roberta in the same way...many many great ones try...Killing me Softly...Thx!

[@jackbarlow8520]

Roberta Flack is also wonderful on the duet with Donny Hathaway THE Closer I get to you.

[@mariaportengen2959]

This song gives me goosebumps, every time hearing it. 🎶🎶🎶❤️❤️

[@davidpeters3857]

💯

[@oldschool72]

No one has surpassed Roberta Flack's cover of this song. many people had never even heard the song before she recorded it. one of my all time solo singers along with Ella Fitzgerald Etta James and of course Sam Cooke , Jerry Butler, Brook Benton and jackie Wilson..Great song to react to..

[@Braedensground]

George Michael does an amazing cover as well.

[@francesmarinapatarangawhik4702]

Adorable couple...Roberta is an amazing musician and singer. Mesmorising...My Love. PEACE.☝️🤓

[@tracy8508]

Such a beautiful song ❤️

[@cathybrookeburt2616]

Awe, Mel you are so cute. You need to check out the song 'Magnet & Steel'. It's awesome & seems appropriate. Love watching how cute you two are together.

[@danielmarshall3102]

This came out my 1st year of high-school and I have to say ... The First Time I Ever Heard This Song ... I knew nothing could touch it and still can't. My fav love song of all time then and still.

[@kimberlinibambini1988]

Always LOVED this! Always will. Wedding song!☺️. 💖💙

[@LH-po3up]

Top tune, beautiful song.

[@LaserRanger15]

So much emotion and control in her voice.

[@scotteustice6230]

Takes me back to my first relationship.....the most beautiful song and performance ever.

[@54nomore]

Written back in 1957 by Scottish singer/songwriter Ewan Maccoll for Peggy Seeger. A relative of the greatest Folk Rocker Pete Seeger. The Roberta Flack version was used in the 1971Clint Eastwood movie "Play Misty For Me." Her rendition of the song captured a worldwide audience and made the song one of the greatest loved ballads ever.

[@erict956]

Peggy was Pete Seeger's sister and when Ewen McColl wrote this for her she was his lover as he was already married to someone else. Kirsty McColl was one of his children from the first marriage.

[@54nomore]

@@erict956 Thank you for that update and reply. I will make that correction.

[@darrenmckinnon3354]

Slight additional other correction. Ewan McColl was born in Salford (to Scottish parents).

[@Sober2003]

She is definitely my love my favorite female voice! Just so serene!❤❤❤❤

[@michaelway7936]

Perfect song for a marriage 💑 or anniversary or any day quite frankly

[@harpergras]

Can never go wrong with Roberta...A great singer and a class act...I`ve been following her since the early 70`s.

[@ryanfeit1420]

This beautiful song was Billboard's number one song of 1972, which was the year my parents got married. They are still married to this day. Shawn and Mel, I wish you many more happy years together.

[@willlong8942]

I grew up on this song. One of the best voices ever. Never gets old.

[@StaceyBeryl]

Me too...

[@robeskridge7948]

One of the most beautiful love ballads ever sung! I have always loved this song!

[@clarionblur]

Ethereal voice and an incredibly beautiful song.

[@krosys]

[@trcooper5793]

Keep Roberta in your prayers. She was diagnosed with Lou Gerigh disease.I heard about it a few months back...

[@bethhowton2719]

I was so jealous of my sister when she got to go to see Roberta Flack, I was 12. Enjoy

[@jeannie177]

Great song, and so sweet how much you two love each other❤❤

[@kerrythorn8575]

Always brings a tear to my eyes.

[@suzanneprock7286]

I remember this from Jr. High School, this is the best version of this song. You guys are so cute!

[@falcon215]

Amazing song and the voice of an angel.

[@lawrenceallen8096]

These songs were IMMENSELY popular in their time. ALL listeners, from Country & Western to Rock 'n Rollers, to Big Band-era, etc. Try "Say a little prayer for me." Aretha version or Roberta Flack.

[@dee_pendable1]

Flawless live performance! Bravo!

[@joannevincent2035]

Is there anything more sensual than Roberta Flack singing her signature love song? I was welling in tears.

[@billtaylor3382]

Love is Beautiful Guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!❤

[@jimmythetout109]

A fantastic song , outstanding voice ......Totally surprised to find out that her song .' Killing Me Softly " , was in tribute to hearing Don McLean , he of " American Pie , and I believe , Vincent .

[@tedgermaine7050]

I have been a huge fan of hers and seen her live 10 times in all kinds of venues. Her voice live and recorded are the same and she gives all of herself on stage. Check out her and Peabo Bryson duets and her and Donny Hathaway. She is at the top of the soundtrack of my life at 71

[@lydmarl.475]

And she also had a duet with Maxi Priest!

[@maggiemay6625]

the guy who wrote this gorgeous song lived next door to my great aunt in salford england his name was ewan mcoll he also wrote dirty old town about the place where i live thankyou for this roberta flack did an amazing job🇬🇧❤️

[@selfdevelopmentcoach]

You two are soooo fantastic!!! ❤

[@ScottDeBerg]

I first heard this song while I as driving. After the first 30 seconds, I had to pull over and just listened. Amazing song, amazing composer, amazing singer.

[@mikehigbee4754]

An absolutely beautiful voice!

[@andywalker8064]

Lovely voice. Lovely woman. Amazing talent. Greatness!

[@debbiechang5781]

Such a beautiful performance of a gorgeous song!! Thanks for doing this! I loved this the first time I heard it and that has not changed. 🌺✌️

[@clapolla]

One of the most beautiful songs ever written and nobody sings it like Roberta Flack.

[@Triggerhippie70]

This song is so special, her voice and the beautiful music, everything. It’s so simplistic yet it’s so powerful.

[@jimasbury3220]

An absolute beautiful song . I had my very first kiss as this song played on the radio way back in the day . We never forget that first love . Thank you so much for reacting to it & bringing back that teenage feeling of love .

[@rinagrey2478]

"Do one thing and do it well". ~Roberta Flack

[@sno_dash9817]

I loved this song back then and have it on my playlist! Beautiful song beautiful voice

[@maryannturton9830]

Look at you two cuties,talking about your first times...Cheers to your love!💋🥂

[@lindakilby2979]

Roberta’s first album First Take is a masterpiece as well as her second Chapter 2. Her duets especially with Donny Hathaway are classics. I have followed her ever since Les McCann introduced her (@1969).

[@ChuckHackney]

I knew our joy would fill the earth...grammy winning song BTW

[@quixote6942]

The Perfect Slow dance to low lighting song ever. To Add to the groove, Try Roberta's "Killing me softly with his song".

[@dontworrybehappy8080]

Notice how she stays within the range of her normal voice? F'n incredible. Love RF!

[@felixnorman9562]

You don't have to wait to listen what an angel sounds in heaven!

[@Tasty_Waves_1]

Yessss!!!! I love her singing this song. This has always been my favorite version ❤

[@danbaldwin9511]

Out standing job singing and a great song.

[@michelleydenisey4697]

I love this song. Absolutely beautiful.

[@Bar-l7w]

What a beautiful couple you are. Always laughing do it forever. Bless you both.

[@pauldryburgh6346]

Beautiful cover indeed. My favourite version. It was written by a Scottish folk singer 15 years earlier for an American folk singer, though he was married to someone else at the time of writing. However, those two, Ewan and Peggy, did eventually marry each other in the 70's. ❤

[@joannparker1977]

I’ve always considered this the most beautiful song ever. Thank you, thank you for posting this. It’s one of those songs that make you cry from the emotion. ❤️

[@StaceyBeryl]

She melts me to this day... her voice is so beautiful, such emotion. When love songs were real love songs. The 60's and 70's were the best for music.

[@ed.z.]

Roberta was so deep, rich, sophisticated, enlightened, and truly beautiful. The music and vocals never gets old.

[@House0fHoot]

This song makes me cry every time, it’s so beautiful 🥹😭💜

[@barbarawayland2424]

Perfection!

[@suzie4417]

This was so popular when Roberta recorded it 🥰💜 I remember singing along so many times ! Thanks for the memories 😘. My favourite Roberta song 💋💥

[@billtaylor3382]

I was a kid and had a transistor AM radio I could listen to music and man when I heard this on it I was like Love! 😀

[@JackMcCabeFL-USA]

So happy for you guys. Love will save the world.
