The song was created by composer Charles Fox and lyricist Norman Gimbel, with lyrical contributions from Lori Lieberman, who drew inspiration from a Don McLean concert in late 1971. Though Lieberman was denied songwriting recognition, she released her own version in 1972, which failed to achieve chart success. The composition has since become popular among numerous recording artists across different genres.
