  • roberta is the muse, who takes you and transports you to a place where pure love lives. i have grown with her vocal perfection and understand what love for another human should be. i would treasure eternally the chance to converse with such a talented and beautiful woman.she is, truly a voice from god.

  • @tgirlsizzla True talent. I like the slower tunes as they accentuate her voice to the max.

  • Very few people have a more beautiful vocal tone and a more unique vocal timbre than Roberta Flack. That is why her versions of "First Time Ever I Saw Your Face"

    and "Killing Me Softly" are the most celebrated and successful versions of those songs still some 30 years later. Legendary Voice!

  • @reallyblessed I saw her live at the Barbican, London about 15 years ago. I always prefered her doing ballards - as it really eccentuated her voice.

  • @reallyblessed She is an awesome singer. The only singer, today who would match her, is Adele, any other singers today just hide behind masses of editing & a good production team in the studio.

  • @cassiesmum What? Where are you living? Plenty out there under the category 'NeoSoul'.

    Try Jill Scott for starters,

    Roberta was much more than the modern manufactured pretty girl pop singers. Classically trained at the piano she was given a full music scholarship for Howard University at the mere age of 15 and even directed the Opera 'Aida' and received a standing ovation for it !!

    After her father died she had to leave University due to lack of funding and became a music teacher and also played piano for Opera singers. She then became a full time singer herself and the rest is history !
