Roberta Flack's version is the most popular and successful. This, however, is very good, mainly because it seems like it was physically impossible for Andy Williams to screw up a song.
Too bad this one gets cut off before the end though!
Written by Charles Fox and Norman Gimbel, it was first released by Lori Lieberman in 1971, then Roberta Flack in 1973. it has been covered by at least 40 artists, the Fugees in 1996 as one of the more recent (Susan Boyle the most recent). So how can anyone ever call the Fugees the original version, half of the music we hear today are covers, just that no one has bothered to look up who wrote it. Thats what Wikipedia is for..........
@Useless2112 So, in your opinion, the Fugees wrote it in 1996, and then Roberta Flack COVERED it in 1973? Didn't know time travel is possible by any means. Use Google before you post something stupid like that -.-
@BassHunterrrrr Is that some sort of nickname for Rebecca Black? Um, maybe you don't like the song but I don't think it's that bad! Classic track, written and recorded by the Fugees.
@thechosen2010 It's funny how you think that the fugees are older than this guy... The fugees version is nice too. A lot of people have sang this song...even Michael Jackson. Not a full cover though.
ahhhh i havent heard this song in so long! i heard perry como's version with julie andrews and i just fell in love with it. im soooooo happy i found this! i could just cry.
it makes me sleepy zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....i wanna sleep...

@awaddoups No, it was the Fugees who wrote it and every other singer has always covered it forever, somewhere.

Certainly a good rendition. But I must say I preffer the Wycleff Jean and the Fugees edit.
