Killing Me Softly- Vibes Week 22
After a much needed hiatus to get my house in order, I AM BACK!
This week, I decided to do a song that many of you probably know thanks to Lauryn Hill making it famous many years ago called "Killing Me Softly". It was actually composed originally by Charles Fox with lyrics by Norman Gimbel in collaboration with Lori Lieberman in the early 70's. I hope you enjoy!
Also, unrelated, if you got one of those cards from me at Hive Fest, I know it's taken some time, but we believe we have found the issue with the free claim. I am hoping to have it resolved this week and I will make an announcement once it is functioning.
Lyrics:
Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
I heard he sang a good song
I heard he had a style
And so I came to see him
And listen for a while
And there he was
This young boy, stranger to my eyes
(Chorus)
I felt all flushed with fever
Embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he found my letters
Then read each one out loud
I prayed that he would finish
But he just kept right on
(Chorus x2)
So glad you're back. Your hiatus felt like forever hehe. I was always searching to all the entries to find yours.
Your spin on the song is unique and beautiful. Also, glad to know you got your house in order.
You're killing me softly with your spin on this song...Man I've missed your entry❤️
You take us on a journey with your vocals and climax so powerfully.
🔥 🔥
It definitely has been a while since I've entered. Tough to do it all out here. So glad it resonated though.
Hey Fondew!
I've missed you a lot!
Good to have you back.
Your vocal ability is unique.. you sound so different and soothing.
Thank you so much Obaro! I missed you guys as well.
That voice and guitar!!!!🔥🔥🔥
Beautiful to watch
Thank you moses! That 10,000 hours starting to manifest itself.
Most definitely! Big ups👍🏾👍🏾
In a parallel universe, your version is the original and all others are renditions and spins off of your masterpiece. There is nothing like a @fondew musical transformative interpretation, I loved the way you sang with a riveting vibrato into that emotional and passionate wailing singing style you are so well known for. Thanks for killing it again this week on your epic return.

I totally agree with u on this.. 🔥🔥🙌🙌🙌
Hola amigo lamento que no puedo ver el vídeo porque x en Venezuela está bloqueado y aún no e instalado el VPN, pero me gusto la imagen y la letra me gustaría escuchar
¿Twitter está bloqueado en Venezuela? ¡Es trágico! No estoy seguro de cómo solucionarlo, pero lo tendré en cuenta en el futuro.
Si por supuesto, por ejemplo en vibes te permiten usar YouTube, Instagram además de x y 3speak,
Sí, solía usar YouTube para mis presentaciones, pero usar X directamente fue mejor para mi participación en general.
I loved that tune. Applause 👏🏻👏🏻
So glad you enjoyed it!
Oh my my❤️❤️❤️. It's like your voice is telling a story. You have a lovely tone and you use it well 🙌
Thanks so much VJ, really appreciate that feedback
