KILLING ME SOFTLY WITH HIS SONG (Busted Keys Remix)
(Charles Fox/Norman Gimbel)
INSPIRED THOUGHT BULB
I'd talked on the phone with the co-writer Norman Gimbel at work, and he turned out to be one of the most courteous "celebrities" with whom I'd ever spoken!
FACTOIDS
+ inspired by Lori Lieberman's response to having seen a performance by Don McLean.
+ covered by Roberta Flack (1973).
+ won Grammy for Song Of The Year (1973).
+ Charles Fox is credited as composer and conductor of the instrumental version used as the main musical theme to the film The Drowning Pool (1975) starring Paul Newman.
+ covered by The Fugees (1996).
+ The Fugees' version was "deleted" from being supplied to retailers due to overwhelming popularity in the US and UK to focus on their follow-up single "Ready Or Not."
