From her 1969 album "First Take"

"The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" is a 1957 folk song written by Ewan MacColl for his wife Peggy Seeger. It was popularized by Roberta Flack and became a breakout hit for the singer after it appeared in the 1971 Clint Eastward film Play Misty for Me. Though the song first appeared on Flack's 1969 album First Take, it topped the Billboard Hot 100 and won the Grammy Award for Song of the Year three years later.

    It's not only one of the most beautiful love songs I've heard in my lifetime, it has an ending that truly takes my breath away every single time..... no matter how many times I hear it.

    That sucks. I have a few love songs I try not to listen to because I listened to them after my dog died and I associate them with memories of her. I want to save them for when I think back to her, I loved her more than anything.
