I doubt this claim, Frank Sinatra had his own version too.

You're right, Killing Me Softly with His Song" is a song composed by Charles Fox with lyrics by Norman Gimbel. The lyrics were written in collaboration with Lori Lieberman after she was inspired by a Don McLean.
Yea! Here is a photo of them. Interesting to know Lori is way younger.

Killing Me Softly Originally Sung By Her

In 1994, the Refugees modernized this hit track, removed a verse, and laced it with resonating vibes of Lauryn Hill. The result was instant it.

One never knows how far an act of creative genius would produce.

Adieu, Roberta! Your memories will live forever !!!
She’s not the original owner of the song.

Yes I understand the challenges that comes with using that type of car, especially in January.

....but if that's what's available to him right now, I feel he should take it. If it doesn't work out, he can return the car.

One thing is certain, if the car is still in good condition, with all the 02 sensors working as it should, he can get x2.5 of his fuel input. I.e 20k fuel gross 45k
Ah no support this. If he wants to use the car for executive? Better. Offline client will start making it look like he’s been done a favour. I believe there’s tool for everything. Best he should just get the right took and focus.

This is a lot and sorry about the experience. Let's thank God he didn't die or sustain spinal or neck injuries. The situation would have been 10 times worse.
That was just what calm my nerves. Initially I tot he was gone. It’s a funny world, lot of people don’t care, the moment people saw it wasn’t my fault after the harassment and they can’t really pin it on me, they left me. While he was in the hospital, I walk around to see if anyone will identify with him as I saw some guys talking about him. They deny knowing anything about him. He is obviously relatively known around that neighborhood, but no one want to stand for him. It’s a crazy world indeed.

Sorry my people that I could not respond since. I was just getting off the matter. Not happy, but heaven bear me witness I have tried my best.

Riders will no kee us. I was heading towards Anthony to meet up with someone. So I left the app on incase I get a trip along. Parked around Allen and I saw a trip from Salvation. So the rider text and her number was not on the app. I text her about being on my way. On getting to that Chrisland sch. My phone flash message and it use to b within eyes reach, tho not on my dashboard. My attention draw to the flash and the pop message, rider cancelled. I didn’t touch my phone, just eyes on the flash, next was more like an unstable man wandering in the middle of the road. Omo! Nah human be this? I sway my hand real quick, but I’m already at the covert side and no further side to sway too or I slam the covert completely. People sha gather and try to mob, until the honest people took the blame off me and they left. Rushed em to the nearest hospital like 3 blocks away. A man followed me to the hospital and ready to stand as witnesses. Even told his driver to drive my car away from the mob, so they don’t steal anything. They put em on a stable mood and I took him to general hospital. Sort all the bills and have him some money and he said h want to go. Before I know I start saying police up and down. Back and forth, doctors were angry, because I stood and took charges, bear the brunt and sort all bills, I didn’t run, so what’s the problem here? The man is still alive, eating and walking around, not like they admit him.

Las las the things went the way it went and the case was drop. Took the man back to the street he claimed he live, he could point any house. If he hav any relate, child or phone number, he said no. So I took him to the pharmacy, but blood tonic, some vitamins and pain killer. Took em to the street and leave.

Just got home not long ago… it is well!

It’s a long story, but thank God for everything. Case building up, but nothing God isn’t capable of taking care.

A man was in the middle of the road wandering, but I could sight em and sway hand, I was already at the covet… all I could managed he still hit his head the the windshield. Taken him to two hospitals now and I am still here.

No family, no phone number…

@ThatNiccur

I saw your post last night and what really crossed my mind was to drop 2 books that helped my tots and ability to hold on in trying times. Then the following posts you drop seem confusing. Here is a sensitive case as you’ve threatened to end it all and I don’t think anyone wants that to rest on his conscience, but at the same time there’s need to come out wholly. We can’t hide information from Doctors, lawyers or therapists and expect healing.

Few monikers has asked what kind of help do you need? You need to come out straight and bare the whole story. There’s nothing new on earth, we’ve not seen this before is just an exclamation. Are you a driver? On rental or owner? What happened to the car? How did you get to a land where you don’t know anyone? Did you lost touch with friends and families? Heavy on drugs and bottles? Renewing your rent honestly won’t take you out of the mess, having a dime to your name aside feeding and up keep won’t take you out either. What you need is a revamp, a spiritual cleansing. There’s a difference between you are working and effort is not adding due to lifestyle and completely feeling like an outcast.

Honesty have to be in full with open arms, if you truly want to find your way to redemption. Tho it’s only God that can help.

Thanks for your responses
But I still feel bittered and need to heal first

The other day at community rd off St Finbars. We all know how bad the road is. Only for this guy to cancel the trip while I was near. I called, he apologised and said there's something he needed to do yet I was hurt.

Well, I heard you all.
We all feel bitter when things like this happen. Can’t tell the number of riders I have cursed because of this. I am learning to develop thick skin over riders cancel while driving to pick up.

I have done crazy sh*t and still remember the day I told four riders I ain’t going again. Got this trip from GRA to Ilupeju 3400 and I was a minute away. Rushed to pick up as I check google, I saw like 45 mins to destination. On 3400 ke and thy were already entering the car. All these madam and her workers. The vibes just wasn’t down with me and I don’t feel comfortable doing 45 mins for 3400. I told them straight my car is faulty and the woman asked what happened? Told her overheating, apologized about just observing it. This woman no gree, she have a car and can tell when a car is overheating by looking at the meter. Ha! Madam e b like you go come collect steering for my hand. I say my masquerade no dance again. Las las they alight. Not justifying anything, but I just don’t feel we should generalize any act in this hustle.

Okay
That's bygone but I'm still not sorry

I have driven 5mins before within surulere to pick a lady, she canceled the moment I arriv3d at her place.

The luck she had was that it was online call I couldnt reach out to her again. I'm still hurt and will do that again if I get a better ride while they delaying to come out in time.

If it was bolt, I know I will get paid for being delayed but why will you order on indrive and keep me waiting for almost 10mins. Like I'm her personal driver.
So, may we continue in sin that grace may abound? It is a dog eat dog world out here, I think one just have to define his standard and know what his conscience can take. It goes both ways, I always tell riders to cancel immediately if they don’t want to embark on the trip and drivers should do same. That way, no one waste time or resources.

Without sounding too holy, I may want to overlook you picking another trips as you saw juicy offer, but justification of taking out one action on another doesn’t come off well. Peace! Nobody holy pass. Pray each day makes us a better person.

Feels more like ambiguous statements and nothing real. If you earn 90% and they took 10%, then you were the one that earned most of the payment. Let just see if there’s any difference.

As a General one thing you should never succumb to is system of control. What’s the test for a General if not war? If I were you I’ll pick Monday. A day the road will be free, easy speed, less traffic, early to final destination.

Tips : once you are approaching Onitsha bridge from Asaba. Alight from the car, dip your finger into break fluid and lick it 3 times. Use black rope on your wrist and home you come.

Lolz ... I have a high earner as a partner. He is d least of my worries. People like that will take care of the car and fix it with their money because they know what they are gaining and what they will lose on downtimes.
They are serious and focused. He never has issues with law enforcement. And has never missed a payment in 3yrs. I prefer a high earner to any other.
If I were you, I’ll take the car from him. Anyone that does not stick to agreement is a very danjarous person, ask DJ.

2 things I pick here…

* he chooses to fix, doesn’t make it his responsibility and everybody can’t be like him regardless.

* 3 years! I hope he already have his own car and just enjoying a very jolly good fellow. Alhaji Glithronix never did up to that before he start tying tower with chew stick in his hand every morning.

What's really wrong with a driver making more money? An agreement was signed. Why is investor angry that driver is making money but if same driver defaults, investor will hyperventilate?
Let me look at it from the angle of drivers around me. Barely any driver I know that doesn’t have one thing or the other to fix in his in a week or 2. As owner if the weight of fixing is solely rest on me and I see thro how unfavorable the agreement will box me, I won’t sign such.

See, most times renters earn more than car owners.
Car owner is responsible for repairs and maintenance while a Renter will call his partner to send money for repairs.
Except u are blessed with a car that will not give u a single issue month in month out.
We speak back we speak front and end at same place. Obinoral can testify I have told him this. Even me don reason em to go on rental 40k and just dash the owner the repair.

This point is the reason why I can never give out car to anyone. My heart goes out to anyone that give some like cheerful car on renter, where we have Yeyegbemi. Imagine making 1.7m, only to deliver 160k 😂 this matter we don talk em over and over sha.
