Yes I'm so glad I still got all old music beegees Beatles cat steaven I nice memories of my late husband that passed on two years ago mis him so much 😢
My mom had a poster of Rod hanging in her bedroom, way back in the 70's when I was a child. She took her last breath 29 years ago. I went and seen him last week, she was there with me, tucked away in my heart.
my therapist told me to come listen to this after I told her about still holding a candle for my first love and it being hard to let go...it was just what I needed.
Oh the memories this song brings back to my 71 year old ears.......and the movies that play of my life when this song first came out are so vivid to be lived again...!!! I am so very fortunate to have been a young man during this amazing period of music in the 60s, 70s, and 80s, what a soundtrack I had to live by. Thank you to U-TUBE for providing us all with the closest we'll get to a time machine....!!!!!!!!!
I am so grateful and thankful that we have songs like this in our younger days. I still love his new music. He's my fave of all time. You hit it on the head with calling those days an amazing period of music.
I cried so many times while listening to this song after my first love told me it was over, June 1984. It's June 2021 and I still feel that pain. The years have dulled the pain, but my heart never recovered fully. I did love again, but not like I did the first time and I'm sorry I've been too weak over the years to fully give my partners all they deserved.
I try soo hard to understand you people with emotions but I still can't, I understand but I can't relate to love, I guess I'm a robot, I have no sense of affection or love or need for other people but I like listening to romantic music like this. I'm just 21 so I just I'm too young to understand things
Rod Stewart’s version is the one that maintains the hurt and vulnerability throughout the song, and that’s what makes it so unforgettable. Other versions lose it after the first verse or never have it at all. Sheryl Crowe sounds like she is just making excuses to let a guys down easy, not someone recalling pain.
Life, it seems like we just come out and then we're moving on. we are not afraid of what's next but we will miss what we've had. I'm a crippled old man but my ears still work fine, I have been Blessed and I know it. I testify that Rod Stewart has greased my wheels since we started. if there's a God in Heaven I don't ask much, just could you land us in the same place. God Bless Rod Stewart.
I was born in the 60's great tunes and still listening. MY first marriage sucked. I was in my 20s she wasn't ready. She couldn't be with one guy.still here August 2024
“Has it ever struck you that life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quick you hardly catch it going?”― Tennessee Williams.
It was a great album indeed. It is said that, "God gave us memories so that we might have roses in December." I am sorry to hear about your health, sometime things just do not seem fair. When the road gets difficult I try to focus on the things and people that give me strength. However, like you, I till shed tears when a rose falls on my lap.
Absolutely one of his best Albums, 1976 seems like yesterday! This song stirs so many wonderful and bittersweet memories! How did we get from 1976 to 2023 so damn fast!?😢 To all those amazing days we thought would last forever!💕
Oh i am celebrating today !!! ❤ doing it in style ❤️🔥🥂🕊️⭐️💌 dedicating this comment to my Granny Mary …she used to dry clean Rods underpants in west London…he drove a white Jag and she loved him ❤️❤️🔥 how cool to have a Scottish granddaughter #Love #Promises #Success ❤ ❤️🔥🥂⭐️
When I was 13 I told my step dad I liked Rod Stewart and he said that back in the 80’s, Rod Stewart had to get his stomach pumped because he swallowed so much come at an after party. I still don’t know if that’s true or not, but I love this song.
My mother had his album every picture tells a story way back in the 80,s ... I grew up with songs like this ... This one for me is special its depth meaning along with rods deliverence.
I cried with my 1st love brake up back in 1985 , I was 15 years old totally innocent and in love...I would listen to Rod Stewart all the time when my heart was broken with my first love
Watching this video takes me right back to 1976, coming home from babysitting and turning on "Don Kirchner's Rock Concert" to see one of my favorite singers ever in this pre-recorded video and having my mind blown at its beauty- in every way- Stewart's voice, the lyrics, his clothes, the garden. There was no way to "re-wind" back then, but I was hooked on the song and went out as soon as I could to buy "A Night on the Town" the album that had the song.
Love this song, this song describes love to the tee at least for those of us who aren't lucky enough to have found it. But P.P. Arnold the original has the best version of this classics in my opinion. ❤
I'll never forget the first day i met my 1st love 😍 i was late to work and needed a ride and he just stopped in his BMW and took me to work he asked for my number as i was to get out and he called me later in the day ......❤❤❤❤😊i still love you M
I heard this for the first time in late 1977--right about the time I suffered my first heartbreak. Not that any heartbreak is fun, but the first cut is so raw.
I’m 15. Yesterday was the hardest I cried since I was a toddler. I listened to this song after 6 years and realised what I’ve become since the last time I listened to this song in 2015. I realised I was no longer the innocent boy I was in 2015. I had a lot to change. And that change started yesterday. I’ll check my progress after 3 weeks and I hope I’ll be a much more obedient and kind person towards everyone and I’ll be closer to God
Hey young Man this song seems to uplift you. It's not as bad as you think. I have a 13 and 16 year old. And they have a hard time too. You will be fine. Talk to your family,I promise you that will help.
@@airwolf5826 I know you meant well but not everyone has a supportive family. I am surprised that people are still not aware of this. Some parents are abusive to their children and the child has to look elsewhere.
When I worked in anoperating theatre first as a scrub nurse and latterly as an anaesthetic nurse. In one theatre we had a morning list for vasectomies! These were carried out under local anaesthetic to help relax our patients we'd play music! we always had a laugh when Rod Stewart's record, The first Cut is the Deepest came on. There were a few others that made us smile, sorry I can't recall which one's here days.
I grew up with this version - my teenage years. Never knew that Cat Stevens wrote this song - and he also sang it first (in the late 60s), but it never took off. I recently listened to his version. It must be because he was such a sweet, awkward, shy person I have a soft spot for his version. Like it better Rod Stewart's now even though I love Rod Stewart!
