Softly will be missed without her song😢 🎹

@ManFa_Q March 17, 2025 - 12:35 pm

You guys with your thumb headers…How about "Passed away" at 88! The word "Dead" and "Died" sounds so animal-ish

I don't understand why her phenomenal success with Donny Hathaway wasn't mentioned????

Rest in Power, Beautiful Queen Roberta Flack. I had never heard of you until I heard First Time Ever I Saw Your Face…I felt like I was in suspended animation…that song just gripped my heart and emotions to this day…give thanks for sharing your gift of voice and music.

Her Songs Are Part of The Soundtrack Of My Youth….My Heart Is Breaking….Heaven Has Gained Another Angel….Her Lilting Soft Mellow-Gold Voice Is Resounding To The Choir In Heaven's Garden Now….Rest In Eternal Peace Beautiful Lady….May The Choicest Of Colourful Roses Blooms Your Path As You Way To Your Heavenly Abode….And May The Ethreal Melody Hyms You In A Silent Jingles With A Welcome Ovation ….My Love And Respect On Your Way The Girly With The Voice Of Honey And Gold From Stars And Beyond….

Thank you for the beautiful songs. 🌷🌞💙

Roberta Flack has a voice from another world. Hauntingly beautiful and full of deep feeling. Clint Eastwood was very perceptive in using her timeless song, "First time ever I saw your face" in his film, "Play Misty for Me". Seldom does a film have such a moving song and remarkable voice like Roberta's.

RIP, Roberta..
