“用他的手指弹奏我的痛苦,用他的文字歌唱我的人生。用他的歌声轻轻地杀死我。

需要联系但没有找到它:《Killing Me Softly With His Song》不是一个浪漫出错的故事,这是一首关于单相思和亲身体验歌曲力量的歌曲。

这首歌唱得再美妙不过了,带着如此的痛苦和渴望,当罗伯塔·弗拉克 (Roberta Flack) 为歌词配音时。

这首歌是为美国民谣摇滚歌手兼词曲作者 Lori Liebermann 创作的,她最初于 1972 年录制并发行了这首歌。

Liebermann 声称自己为歌曲创作过程做出了贡献,但从未得到正式认可。

洛里·利伯曼 (Lori Liebermann) 在洛杉矶的游吟诗人剧院 (Troubadour Theatre) 观看了唐·麦克莱恩 (Don McLean) 的音乐会后,她说她被这次经历所震撼,并写了一首诗来表达她的感受。

据说第二天,她把这首诗拿给 Fox 和 Gimbel 看,他们正在为她即将发行的专辑写歌,这就是这首歌的诞生。

在后来的采访中,金贝尔透露:“她告诉我们她听麦克莱恩的强烈经历。我有个想法,这可能会成为一首好歌,所以我们三个人讨论了它。

“我们讨论了好几次,就像我们处理我们为专辑写的其他数字一样,我们都觉得它有可能性。”

然而,多年后,福克斯反驳了这个故事:“我认为它被称为都市传说。事情真的不是那样发生的。诺曼·金贝尔 (Norman Gimbel) 和我为一位名叫 Lori Lieberman 的年轻艺术家写了那首歌。

“我坐下来,音乐就跟着歌词一起流淌。第二天早上我们聚在一起,对它进行了一些调整,我们为 Lori 播放了它,她很喜欢它,她说这让她想起了参加 Don McLean 音乐会。

在罗伯塔·弗拉克 (Roberta Flack) 的版本在 Billboard 排行榜上排名第一后,这位“美国派”歌手表示,成为这首歌的灵感来源“是一种荣誉和喜悦,我把功劳归功于利伯曼”。

“我的歌曲总是来自我的个人想法和经历,所以当有人像 Lori 一样被它们感动和感动时,我会感到不知所措。”

歌词:

Strumming my pain with his fingers, singing my life with his words

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, singing my life with his words

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

He sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair

And then he looked right through me as if I wasn't there

And he just kept on singing, singing clear and strong
