　　今天要介绍的歌曲是Killing Me Softly with His Song《一曲销魂》。歌词实际上是根据真实的故事编写的。据说在八十年代，美国民谣女歌手Lori Lieberman在一次偶然的机缘下，去听了当时一位名不见经传的民谣歌手Don Mclean的现场演唱。Lori Lieberman被Don的一首歌“Empty chair”深深地打动了，她随后写下诗歌“Killing me softly with hisblues”。这首诗后来被Charles Fox和Norman Gimbel创作成了歌曲“Killing me softly with his song”,并由LoriLieberman亲自演唱。但真正让这首歌走红的是美国老牌黑人女歌手Roberta Flack。今天我们要听到的就是来自她的版本!
