Roberta Flack - "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face".

I have always loved this song...even way back when I was not overly interested in this type of ballad. It's beauty is boundless, both lyrically and musically! It is timeless! It is sensual! It is erotic! In it is bound up all that which the human heart can properly understand of romantic love.

After recently hearing some of the contestants on the X-Factor botch this song, almost into oblivion, I decided to haul my Roberta Flack version out of my i-Tunes folder and make a video, fitting its extraordinary essence and beauty.
