I went to Lori's lovely concert in De Meervaart in Amsterdam 10-12-2011. What a lovely venu and intimate hall/room !!! Precisely suited for the concert she gave. Very sensitive and so musical !
I recorded this beautiful Killing Me Softly because it connects so much art that I love.
I always knew this song is about Don McLean, who also read my letters out loud, and sang so wonderfully about Vincent van Gogh.
And now there is this other young boy who sings Killing Me Softly in an italian version:

And someone posted a french version by Lori herself, wonderful to hear that in a language I also love:

"In an April 5, 1973 article in the Daily News, Norman Gimbel was quoted as follows: "She [Lori Lieberman] told us about this strong experience she had listening to McLean ('I felt all flushed with fever / Embarrassed by the crowd / I felt he had found my letters / And read each one out loud / I prayed that he would finish / But he just kept right on'). I had a notion this might make a good song so the three of us discussed it. We talked it over several times, just as we did for the rest of the numbers we wrote for this album and we all felt it had possibilities."[8]9 years ago
