Sad to hear this. Killing me softly is a timeless song. I hear it on the car radio regularly.

So sad!
I am sure there are many younger people who think The Fugees originally sang "Killing Me Softly". I will admit I like their version, but I also always think of Roberta Flack when I hear their version.

I hate that we are losing so many musical artists from my/our childhood. Inevitable as i get older, but still.
She made some absolutely beautiful music, what a voice!

Such a beautiful singer. My mom used to play her songs all the time when I was a kid. I love her music.

I will admit I like their version, but I also always think of Roberta Flack when I hear their version. Same. I was fooled by the first part of their version. Roberta's version is the first song I really loved and listened to over and over again. RIP

The first time ever I saw your face was our first dance song at our wedding.

 The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face was a masterpiece. RIP Here here! Grew up listening to her music and I love all of it, but The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face is special in its own right and also because it's very personally sentimental to me. RIP, will miss her gorgeous silky smooth voice.
