Who is



Killing me softly by the Fugees is one of my all time favorite songs. I just recently came across MJ's short cover of this song from 1974, and it shook me. So so good. That michael jackson guy seemed pretty talented. I think Lauryn still sang it best, but damn MJ, its really close.

The real smoke is over whether Roberta Flack or the Fugees version is better. You can lose friends over this one.

Going with Fugees.

Roberta Flack did all the hard work for Lauren.

NGL Lauren's version owes a lot to Roberta's. Roberta Flack started with a blank canvas and created a masterpiece.

I go with the Fugees version mostly because of the hip hop beat.

I waver between Roberta and Lauryn's versions, tbh, but since the former isn't in the poll, it makes my choice an easy one.

She's a close second, but Lauryn's vocals in that song is are so on point.

Came here to say Fugees but after listening to Sinatra I have to give it to him. I like how melancholy it sounds. I bet Lana Del Rey could do a great version like that too.

Sinatra>Jackson>Garbage>Fugees

Fugees inserted that dumb beat into it and ruined a classic.

Lauryn Hill absolutely killed it. I can't listen to any other version now.

Apparently that's not Sinatra singing. It's Perry Como.

Here's a clip of the last time someone took the wrong side on the Roberta Flack- Lauren Hill Killing Me Softly debate:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHz7Yh2EEMc

It's legit that serious to some people.

Idc who made it. The song is now the Fugees. Just like All Along the Watchtower is Jimi's.
