《一曲銷魂》的眾多版本中，最出彩的莫過于美國女歌手羅貝塔·弗萊克的演繹。歌曲于1973年1月正式發行，隨即5周在公告牌百強單曲榜登頂，并于1974年一舉拿下格萊美年度制作、年度歌曲、最佳流行女歌手三項大獎。弗萊克曲風多變，涉及流行音樂、民謠、爵士等各個領域，并憑借《當我第一次見你》和《一曲銷魂》于1973和1974年連續兩年斬獲格萊美年度制作獎，縱觀世界樂壇，僅此一例。1999年，弗萊克榮登格萊美名人堂。許多中國歌手都翻唱過此曲，包括鄧麗君、成方圓、莫文蔚、李玟等。2018年，英國歌手JessieJ在《我是歌手》第三期節目中憑借對此曲的精彩演繹奪下當晚第一，這首歌也因此在中國再度走紅。Killing

Lieberman一曲銷魂他手指敲擊著我的痛苦，他的歌傾訴我的一生。我沉醉在他溫柔的歌聲里。我沉醉在他溫柔的歌聲里。他用歌聲講述著我的一生，我沉醉在他溫柔的歌聲里。我覺得他唱的不錯，我聽他的歌很有風格。所以，我來見他。傾聽了一會兒，他是這樣一個年輕男孩。看上去如此陌生。他手指敲擊著我的痛苦。他的歌傾訴我的一生。我沉醉在他溫柔的歌聲里。我沉醉在他溫柔的歌聲里。他用歌聲講述著我的一生。我沉醉在他溫柔的歌聲里。我感到面頰似火燒，在人群中感到如此尷尬。我覺得他發現了我這些舉動，并大聲說出，我祈禱，他趕緊說完吧。但他卻一直不停。
