Roberta

Let us pause for a moment, and listen to a bit of Roberta Flack. She certainly sings of love and loss beautifully.

I'd recommend the entire album, The Best of Roberta Flack, for the classics.  Perhaps listen to Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow or The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face, should you want to hear the hesitation and the intensity of new romance; or, if you require musical accompaniment for heartbreak, try If Ever I See You Again, or especially, Jesse.  If you had to pick just one song, though, I'd suggest Killing Me Softly. It is just right.
