  • NEEEEEED the recording version of this amazing song from matt....!!!!!!

    Close eye´s and enjoy..!! Just great!!

  • Check out Matt's performance of this on Loose Women today, 2/27/2012

  • Hey guys! Check out my channel for my live cover version of this song! :) thank you! x

  • And besides he has a horrible falsetto. He sounds like a has been drag queen not a man with great falsetto voice.

  • In a way the sad thing for the x-factor winners now is that as soon as the show stops they cannot get the exposure that a weekly show performing live gives them and so the interest wanes. Joe McElderry was fantastic on this show, but things went quiet for him since because he cannot sing live on TV every week and that is what he was fantastic at. Same for Matt, if he was on every saturday night i'd get excited about him, but in a over edited video and autotuned song and it just don't do it...

  • Awesome job! loved it!

  • the scruff, the eyelashes, the falsetto...sweet

  • This moves me to the depths of my soul every time I hear it. I love you Matt. : )

  • great song for matt!!!

    and totally agree that X Factor UK is way better than the US.

  • im from the US and i prefer the x factor in the UK...does that make me a traitor?

  • used this on my nephews wedding video......... brill

  • You can see, right at 3:54 all of the shock and emotion flowing through Matt when he finished that song. He knew he had blown them away and I'm not a big fan of X Factor, as it tends to be trash TV to me, along with Big Brother, etc. I just watch the stupid auditions on occasion, or the gems such as Leona or Alexandra. But when this song was over, that Saturday night was a happy moment for me. I don't know what music does, but this song resonated an amazing feeling that I will always remember.

  • This is the defining moment when Matt Cardle stole the competition and the hearts of everyone sitting in the audience, at home and on the judge's panel. I believe it was a Saturday night for me, I was flicking through channels as my room mate had left for the weekend to visit his girlfriend and I was watching his TV. I relaxed back and happened upon X Factor. I stayed on it and within literally five of those 7 minutes, I was struck with goosebumps. This song moved me. It was absolute beauty.

  • absolutely amazing - jen do té ČR stále nechce přijet.

  • I love how Brits lose their accents when singing... thumbs down if you agree

  • I bought the new studio version of First Time from Matt's Amazing EP today and it is simply stunning:))

  • Are you kidding? An angel dressed up as a painter? WOWOWOWOWOWOWWOO what a voice!!!, perfect song!!!!!!

  • For me..he is perfect.. He made the best version of this song so far.. it's just amazing, unbelieveble.. I love it from the beggining till the end... so deep.. people who don't like this is truly deaf..simply beautiful

  • on a personal note,that is exactly how i felt when my boy exodus was born 5 years ago!

    

  • I don't know who the bozo is below that said that it was hideous, but it is understandable give the world we live in now days.... Matt did an GREAT job!

  • Sry to say but i dont like the song and the way he sings it.

  • I should have put money on Matt Winning the xfactor... kind of knew it from the start... kicking myself..

  • hi i am from Poland:) you are amazing! Jestes niesamowity! Gratuluję Ci!

  • Josh Krajcik is better +100 listen and compare...

  • why don't we hear anything of him in Holland? Love this guy!

  • beautiful x x x

  • This guy is sooo beautiful....romantic,attracti­ve,ambitious,the voice is FABULOUS.

  • His voice is sooo perfect :D

  • Agree Josh...makes this song wonderful

  • One word - AMAZING!!!!

  • I like Matt, but Josh Krajcik does this song better.

  • @TheJoslyn2009 I agree with you but this one is a 5 stars too.

  • matt is the best artist i have ever heard convey emotion and feelings with this song or any song i ever heard performed , and i have been around listening to songs for many a decade ,, this performance was a gift to the world from another power

  • this is matt cardle's biggest song at the competition . agree guys?

  • first tiiiiiiiiiimeeeeeeeeee!!!!!...­.. awesome!!!

  • estoy divinamente aturdida al escuchar tan dulce y preciosa voz... increible.

  • Pretty much his best performance of the whole series, I bought it like an hour after he performed it lol

  • it was incredible...

  • K I C K  A S S delivery!

  • I tear up every time I hear him sing this song. With all due respect to Roberta, this is the best this song has ever been sung.

    Matt I know you watch this video from time to time. When are you going to put this song on an album?? And please use this orchestral arrangement as it is incredibly beautiful and spellbinding. You HAVE to do it Matt.

  • @dieseldog00 Matt is releasing a newly recorded version of this on a 4 track EP for his new single Amazing. Release date is 19th Feb and it can be pre ordered on itunes now:) There is a link for the EP on his new video Amazing. There is no physical EP download only:( Can't wait for it, yay!!

  • @broken259 I have listened to the previews on Amazon and it sounds beautiful. You can pre-order it on Amazon but it will be available for download there also from Feb 19th.

  • @alexandra21363 Meant to say can't pre-order on Amazon sorry.

  • Shane ward ? you serious alexandra makes him look amateur!

  • @tay18kinger no offense to alex, but compare how many sales shayne and alex. way too far. and until now after how many years, shayne still have new album.

  • Matt Cardle .....This is the most beautiful song you have ever sung I listen to this all the time all your other work is incredible x

  • This song just has to have been the one which was the the turning point in the whole competition. It was HIS song and HIS version which made it so unique and because of this we return to see this video clip time after time 1.8m views just can't be wrong. Good luck Matt.

  • I listen to this song almost everyday...he is amazing.

  • Cant wait to get my download of Matts EP Amazing to hear his new recording of this song . His voice is so good its out of this world.

    

  • OMG I adore him, very strange voice but yet so powerful. He is also very cute.

  • The audience is really fucking annoying.

  • Cant stop listen whole day! U r unique!

    Love from Argentina

  • Perfeito...simplesmente perfeito !!!

  • @geli2859 então vai ver a versão desta musica cantada pelo Josh Krajick, pessoalmente prefiro a do Josh mas esta está espectacular também.

  • jawdroppingly awesome rendition of a classic

    THIS song should have been saved for XMAS number one in hindsight

    It is simply goosebump inducing

  • he do it... sooo gooooooooooood!

  • WOW,,what an amazing performance by this young man,,,absolutely beautiful rendition of this song,,,well done Matt.

    How the fuck any one can actually give this a thumbs down ( like 157 have ) is way beyond me although they are entitled to their opinion.

    Chuck the paint brush away young man,,,you are well on the way to well deserved stardom and all that goes with it.

    I'm an oldtimer who grew up with Elvis, Orbison, Shannon etc. but no question I'll certainly be buying your albums,,,lovely voice.

  • Come on, Rebecca Black has more views than you, and it's not FAIR! He is so talented, so amazing!

  • all good to you you are fab

  • so glad he's recorded it ~ I wondered why this wasn't released right after the X factor. FYI for all you UK folks. Josh Krajcik did "The First Time" at Judge's House in the X Factor USA (he finished 2nd, but should have won), so check it out also. Almost as good as Matt's.

  • Matt has recorded this song again and is available to download on the 19th Feb ..It is on his EP Amazing.

  • fab 

  • amazing creature...

    

  • Please sell your songs in Argentina so i will buy all of them! U re fantastic! Im listening to u whole day! LOV U SO

  • *gasp* NO words can compare to how absolutely BEAUTIFUL this performance was!!

  • Nothing wrong with listening this in 2012... This was one of the best performances ever.. in any talent competition!

  • @kgowen4444 you are absolutely RIGHT!!! there has never been a better performance than this one....PERIOD!!!

  • Meh

  • just soo the shitty version on Glee and thought about this. Much much better.

  • @hikaru678 im a huge huge fan of glee but i´ve to admit it , this was so much much better plus in a male voice and live ... =0 no wonder was too amazing

  • probably the best song in X factor by a contestant.

  • there are only 3 best winners in x factor. shayne ward, leona lewis and matt cardle... agree?

  • @binatangmakasalanan I think little mix were good too :)

  • @binatangmakasalanan

    ABSOLUTELY !!

  • @binatangmakasalanan Alexandra aswell

  • @binatangmakasalanan You forgot Alexandra.

  • @dieseldog00 i forgot. sorry.  :-)

  • Comment removed

  • @binatangmakasalanan umm wat about alexandra burke????

  • @binatangmakasalanan Lets not forget Alexandra

  • @binatangmakasalanan shayne ward .....wasnt he dropped by simons record label because he wasnt selling anything ?.....if anyone should be amongst the other two should be Alexandra Burke she sold over a million copies of Hallelujah the only ever British female too sell that amount of records .......?

  • @pipimansfield Amazing single??????

  • нормуль поет!

  • skip to 1:39.

    You're welcome.

  • Why am I crying???? He is amazing!!! God Bless him!

  • saw him at the o2 arena last week, fucker short changed me buying popcorn

  • @deelennondee hehehe!

  • @deelennondee Very good and my standards are very high, like his voice. We'll have to send him in to see Captain Ballsdrop!!

  • To all of the screamers who were yelling when the judges were TRYING to make a statement, screw you. You don't need to be let out in public. That is just plain rude. At least get some home training before you come out in public again!  Rude!

  • Wow !!!!!!!! What guy out there today could better this !!!!!!!!! xxxxxxxxxxxx

  • @pipimansfield  Andrea Bottcelli?

  • @mangimages5 MMMM!!!! I Love Bottcelli but he couldn't out do Matt on this !!! Matt gave me goosebumps singing this and brought tears to my eyes !! Matt has so many levels to his voice for me thats the difference and it's a unique quality !!

  • omg

    

  • goosebumps!!!!!!

  • This is when I fell in love with him.

  • never has a song by a guy made the hairs on my nect stand up so much.Best voice i have ever ever heard.amazing!!!!

  • This man is so amazing... The song would reduce anyone to tears... Stunning... should be a record :)

  • @mrvince471 he has me crying and goosebumps..INCREDIBLE!!

  • Absolutely Blown Awaaaay!!!!!!!!

  • Move back, Roberta Flack!!

  • My tears are flowing. I have never heard this song sung with more emotion and feeling than Matt Cardle did. And I've never seen Simon's face look like that. He felt it too you can tell...

  • Watching this reminds us how winning The X Factor means f**k all if the act isn't the one Cowell wanted to win. One Direction have had more money spent on them to boost their profile than Matt Cardle ever got for winning. I hope he gets out of his contract asap and signs up with someone who actually wants him. If he released this song it would go straight to No1 for sure.

  • 6:17 I WANT BABIES!! hahahhaa i found that hilarious

  • the first time (ever I heard him). in love. totally. completely... in love

  • belter

  • belter..........

  • I like David Cook's version better...

  • I know its lame but thumb up if u still listen to this in 2012

  • @beer7 Why lame it could be 2050 ill be listening to Matt Cardle.

  • @beer7

    I LISTEN TO HIM OVER AND OVER AGAIN.....THE FEELINGS HE IS CAPABLE TO SHOW WITH HIS VOICE.....ARE AMAZINGLY POWERFUL !!!

  • Remember watching this at the time and being blown away. Utterly compelling performance. Cardle absolutely nails the song. Totally deserved standing ovation. Your really see what X Factor missed this season not only in the acts but the judges too in their reactions.

  • i have listened to celine dion and leona's versions, they are beautiful and may be perfection, but touched to tears only when i heard matt singing it.

    its lovely to see ppl still look up for this video after one year time

  • espetaculooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

  • This version still gives me goose bumps! <3<3<3

  • Will you stupid people stop shouting when the judges are trying to voice their opinion? Such rudeness? Why must you prove yourselves to be idiots in this world? Fools!

  • 2:37

  • this by far is one of the best versions ever…… i need this studio quality.

  • Oh fuck off Louis you cunt - Simon, sack that wanker now!

  • OUTSTANDING!!!!

  • I liked Matt Cardle on the X Factor and was happy enough that he won. But now when I look back at his performances his wailing vocals really grate on me for some reason.

  • Beautiful !!! Stunning !!!

  • @whatever5746 why? is he gay or something?

  • I'm crying.... what a feeling!

  • 3:50 hahaha looks like he shit he pants :D hahahhahaha

  • OMFG THIS IS POOR LMFAO ::D .... ty 4 the lol

  • the fact that this was never a single is a crime

  • he's cute:)

  • Beautiful

  • arw hes crying! love what hes wearing!

  • I did'nt follow the Xfactor last year and today was the first time I saw this performance. I have to say that has got to be one of the best versions of this song, sung so pure and honest with true feeling wow matt that was amazing

  • not really into these shows,but hes damn good!

  • matt did this justice. ace

  • Will X-factor EVER have a better performance than this? utterly amazing and I'm not even a big x-factor fan!

  • Agree if you want to be a singer but are too shy or are worried about what everyone else will think cause that is how i feel -- i go to audition and im not good enough and suddenly im feeling absolutely worried .

  • Best X Factor song ever, ever, ever.

  • i often come back to this to watch and listen; i love his story. He was head and shoulders above the 2011 contestants. Anyway he won in 2010 - and won the public vote for 11 weeks out of 12. Even up against quality opposition like Becca Ferguson. He is the real deal, a truly talented vocalist and musician.

  • wow i favourited this and just came back to watch it, not the only one apparently!

  • lol idd i agree with qetuoa XD hehe this is juse perfect

  • you can tell when its a good song or singer when there are still ppl looking it up a year or more later!

  • well lets hope the pop idol works for you because the painting is all wrong...its all horrible and over produced it made me cry ....

  • looks like 149 missed the like button or carnt tell what is the like :D best song

  • Wow .. Wow ... this was so beautiful!

  • i can't stop lissen to this song hy sing this so emotionel beautiful ,a big fan from belgum ,i hope hy gif hiere a concert and his song run for your live amazing ,go go matt to belgum

  • he needs to make this a record

  • This performance would blow away littlemix and all other x-factor contestants (apart from poss leona), and yet sadly little mix will prob go on to make more money and fame than matt........

  • meant it

  • maravilhoso.
