KILL ME SOFTLY WITH HIS SONG --------- 情歌销魂
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
(one time, one time)
singing my life with his words,
(two time, two time)
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 and listen for a while.
And there he was this young boy, a stranger to my eyes.
I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed 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,
(one time, one time)
singing my life with his words,
(two time, two time)
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
(instramental interlude)
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
(yes he was)
singing my life with his words,
killing me softly with his song,
killing me softly with his song,

经典, 文雅 , 温柔、老练这些词都不足以形容Roberta Flack这位20世纪美国传奇性黑人女歌手的特殊嗓音。Roberta Flack1939年出生于美国一个教会风琴师家庭（想当星爸星妈吗？那就找份和教会有关的工作吧！）。从小学习钢琴，并且获得了霍华德大学的奖学金。从学校毕业之后，Roberta Flack被着名爵士音乐家Les McCann 发掘并推荐给了Atlantic唱片公司。在Atlantic发行的第一、二张专辑虽然获得评论界的一致好评，但是在商业成绩上并无过人之出，也没有创造畅销单曲。但随着被誉为英国民歌之父的Ewan MacColl 在戏剧[Misty for Me]中翻唱Roberta Flack第一张专辑中的歌曲[The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face]，这首歌曲与Roberta迅速窜红，单曲也在美国排行榜上占据了六周的冠军，成为当年最热门的歌曲。更在次年的Grammy中获得年度单曲奖和年度最佳歌曲两项大奖。
紧接着，Roberta发行了这张名为[Killing Me Softly]的专辑，专辑中的同名单曲[Killing me softly with this song]在排行榜榜首的位置停留了5周。一时间Roberta Flack人气无双，成为美国家喻户晓的超级巨星。这首歌曲也被我们传唱至今，成为不朽名曲之一。并且使Roberta再次获得了Grammy年度最佳单曲和最佳流行女歌手两项大奖。
