The song was created by composer Charles Fox and lyricist Norman Gimbel, with lyrics developed alongside Lori Lieberman, who drew inspiration from a Don McLean concert in late 1971. Lieberman was not given songwriting credit despite her collaborative contributions and released her own version in 1972, which failed to achieve chart success. The composition has since become widely covered by numerous prominent artists.
