1972 - Written by Ewan MacColl 1957 Folk singer Ewan MacColl wrote this in 1957 for his wife, Peggy Seeger**. She was in a play and phoned him for suggestions on a song for a romantic scene. MacColl wrote this song in less than an hour, and taught it to her over the phone - Source SongfactsRoberta's reworked version first appears on her 1969 album "First Take", it was then popularized by Clint Eastwood in his 1971 directorial debut "Play Misty for Me", resulting in it being shortened to a four minute single and released by Atlantic Records in 1972It reached number fourteen in the UK and stayed at number one in the United States for six weeks, which led to Roberta winning the Record of the Year Award, and Ewan the Grammy Award for Song of the Year.Roberta Flack Home Page http://www.robertaflack.com/jw... has uploaded the MacColl/Seeger Version http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=... check out the "nusound" Video Response where (Producer) Joel Dorn - talks about Roberta Flack & Clint Eastwood http://www.youtube.com/watch?v... There's a discrepancy in web accounts as to whether Peggy Seeger was his wife, lover and/or mother of his child when he wrote this song. Also Kirsty was born two years later but I believe her mother was his 2nd and earlier wife.Formerly on thingsihaveseen

Roberta's blessed with a great voice and how she expresses this song with so much passion deserves nothing close to good, she's the best.
