Lori Lieberman did the original recording of " Killing Me Softly " in 1971.

Wasn't the original "Fever" by Peggy Lee ?

[loopy lass]

the info i have is that a man called Little Willie John wrote and sang it in 1956 then Frankie Avalon had a hit with it in 1959 then Peggy Lee recorded it in 1960, what do i go with?

[nagnag]

yes, peggy lee sang fever.
