  • chills

    

  • Muchisimas gracias por compartir este video, la cancion es hermosa en todos los sentidos; en verdad mil gracias

  • love her singing this .mine and hubby's song we dance our first dance after wedding to this! that was over 35 years ago and remember the first time i saw his face

  • she's always at her best live.

  • Esta canción me parece hermosa!!! La primera vez que la escuché fue con Celine, pero la de Roberta también me fascina! Que rola!!!

  • Superb

  • BELLISIMA CANCION!!!

    

  • "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" is a 1957 folk song written by British political singer/songwriter Ewan MacColl for Peggy Seeger, who was later to become his wife. At the time the couple were lovers, although MacColl was married to someone else. MacColl and Seeger included the song in their repertoire when performing in folk clubs around Britain. During the 1960s, it was recorded by various folk singers and became a major international hit for Roberta Flack in 1972.

  • cariño para ti!!te amoooo!!

  • No es precisamente una canción de una madre a su hijo... es una canción de amor de un hombre a una mujer. Ewan MacColl la escribió en una carta a su amante (despues sería su esposa) Peggy Seeger.

  • I like Leona Lewis' rendition too. To be honest, I think we would all agree that each is VERY special in its own way. There is no need to compare, all are beautiful.

  • I love Roberta Flack and I love her rendition of this song. But this version by Celine Dion is a very close second.

    This woman has the most beautiful voice I've ever heard!

  • agreed, I favor this version though. This is the one that grabs my heart and touches my soul. She puts just so much emotion into her voice and facial expressions that is just a tearful moment for me. I highly agree with you..most beautiful voice I have ever heard.

  • 2:10 omg is that possible? is it human? wow!

  • Not bad. But there is no topping Roberta's rendition.

  • BETTER THAN ROBERTA FLACK/// BETTER VOICE THAN STRIESAND

  • The first time ever I saw your face I thought the sun rose in your eyes And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave To the night and the empty skies my love To the night and the empty skies The first time ever I kissed your mouth I felt the earth turn in my hand Like the trembling heart of a captive bird That was there at my command my love That was there at my command The first time ever I lay with you And felt your heart beat close to mine
  • Some things were never just meant to be sung by 99.9 percent of the human population

  • Again, she doesn't sing the complete song yet the song lasts longer than the Johnny Mathis and Roberta Flack versions. After "The first time ever I lay with you and felt your heart so close to mine" there is supposed to be "I thought our joy would fill the earth and last til the end of time, my love."

    But, Celine has shown again that she is more interested in demonstrating her vocals rather than conveying the emotion of a song as written. Check the Johnny Mathis and Roberta Flack versions.

  • @STBRetired1 You're absolutely right. She ís just singing notes, not the song

  • beautiful voice.... very very very goods...

  • Wonderful song: She is certainly as good on that song as Roberta Flack.

  • @Stephenoit really? has a better voice, but she doesnt sound natural singing it, partly maybe it not being her first language, and partly being she doesnt give as much emotion as Roberta.

  • beautiful <3

  • maravilhosa

  • I never thought I would hear Celine do a Gord Lightfoot song but she did it magnificently-- the most beautiful voice in the world no doubt.

  • @kawlijaa "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" was written by Ewan McColl for Peggy Seeger. Lightfoot did a good job; but, it's not his song.

  • I have seen this lady live twice and her voice was absolutly perfect every time...she sings this song beautifully, but not as wellas Roberta Flack!

  • en français

    pardonnez mon français traduit par Google Translate J'aime la voix de Céline est spéciale et magique, elle prend des chansons à un nouveau niveau et il frappe directement à mon coeur cette chanson est important pour moi que ma chanson danse premier mariage ma femme et moi l'amour cette chanson tellement

  • i like celine's voice it is special and magical she takes songs to a new level and strikes it straight in to my heart

    this song is significant to me as it my first dance wedding song

  • BEATIFUL!!

    ALMOST as good as Roberta Flack!

  • this is absolutely the best song and version! makes me cry every time...id love to be able to have the training to sing like that!

    xxxxxxx

  • Like it or not , she got a great voice with no doubt !

  • This horse-face overplays every song she sings. Roberta Flack can't be beat on this song!!

  • @622park wow that was mean. I like Rebecca's too but I wouldn't get that mad

  • Best version ever !!!

  • great ! the best rediton from the original ! i cant hel but to cla my hand

  • The camera moves too much, makes me feel a bit dizzy lol

  • wow!!

  • I've never been a big fan of her, but what a killer voice, the way she sings sounds like a whisper, very soft, and brings out the big stuff later

  • Her version sounds like it belongs in an epic fantasy movie, like an elven scene from Lord of the Rings.

  • Maybe between her and Leona Lewis... we can find the best female cover of this song. The best male version, errr, cover, imo, is George Michael's versión ftw <3

    Beautiful song :)

  • @FozzysGang Reberta Flack!

  • Puedo cerrar los ojos y sentir la primera vez que ví la cara de mi hija.....inolvidable y profundamente amarrada al lazo de los sueños que hacen el camino, mi camino, su camino.....

  • way too slow celine. can't sing to you.

  • celine is so perfect at whatever she sings that we got used to her perfection.. thus people come here and say staff like matts or leonas versions are better.. they will never be better.. celine nails everything that she sings.. we just got accustomed to her perfection thats all..

  • i think she is in the top 3 best female voices in the world. Although i dont know how her voice is today 2011 compared to say the 90s or early 2000s

  • leona lewis version cant compare to this...never cud never will

  • not as good as leona lewis

  • Perfection

  • ERES SUPER, MAGNIFICA

    

  • A funeral for that great song. Celine sucks the life out of life itself, the dumb bitch.

  • @gormarx hey, you are a deaf imbecile who cries when he hears Justin Bieber....then you run to the bathroom with a pic of Justin and "prove your love"

  • O.K. I guess there's really nothing she can't hit out of the park!

  • que hermosa cancion esta a mi medida ......amazing

  • This song does not belong to Roberta Flack. It was written by a British Folk singer/songwriter called Ewan McColl for his love Peggy Seeger. It was done in a quicker tempo. However I still like both this and Roberta's versions.

  • Hey guys, Im collecting 1000 views for my video as a gift asking my crush out on a date. Here is the link:

    watch?v=5ZX4JVmD-iI

    Thank you for watching.

    Regards,

    Darain

  • Celine is the best!!!!!!!

  • check out laura broad singing this. OUTSTANDING x

  • If u like this song u should listen to leona lewis's versioni think its the best ive heard... she have just beat out roberta on her own song...

  • I am NOT a fan of Celine Dion, a huge fan of Roberta Flack, and I have listened to the various covers of this song. Miss Dion nailed it.

  • Simply put...

    Horrible.

  • @ramnirv yea, i ve seen her singing this song too, sang beautifully.

  • Nobody can sing it like Roberta Flacks, some songs should just be left alone.

  • SWEET JESUS. Her vocals are so Rich, like Roberta Flacks. I'll bet she is thinking of her son.

  • Okay...Cardle's version has been trumped as the most beautiful performance of anything ever.

    Although it's still impressive considering he's a dude, and has hardly had any vocal coaching.

  • and thus , dubstep was born

  • Just amazing !!!

  • this is a song of elvis presley who sung it better than this version i love this version to but elvisses version is mutch better but i love celine ,s singing to shes one of the greatest artists of al to

  • Comparing Matt to Celine is like comparing poop to God. Nobody trumps the best voice in the industry, Celine Dion. Every song and cover she does is gold.

  • Leona Lewis is so much better.

  • shame its not live, still love celine!!!

  • perfection................enou­gh to make you cry,such feeling and emotion,fantastic !

  • overdone, Roberta's version is better.

  • BY FAR..the most beautiful version of this song............by ANYONE.

  • Wow!! She knocked this out of the park!!

    What an effin voice. Her version makes you cry, she exudes emotion in this song.

  • the FUST TAHM ever i saw your face

  • Matt is thousand times better

  • Ha ha ha!!! Celine, you are good girl and always have been, but Matt cardle on thi sSaturdays X-Factor whooped your arse with this song!!!

  • Matt cardle is the man

  • This vesion is by far the best ever. Sorry Matt!

  • She has a very powerfull voice and this performance was staged incredibly well but Matt's performance on the 6th of November 2010 to me had more imotion and makes my eyes water every time I watch it.

  • amazing voice but trying to hard,roberta,s version is so much better,really!

  • Peter, Paul and Mary, and the Chad Mitchell Trio did this song in the 1960's. Listened to Roberta Flack sing this on a juke box in 1971

  • beautiful songs so beautiful..so special brillant emotional voice. i see authentical emotion, i like dis songs so much..

  • sorry dear, this song suits a mans voice!

  • This Flack copy has been brilliant but obvious

  • i still liked matts version better...

  • @cobrafizzo the guy did nothing but shout. people gave him way too much praise that he actually deserved.

  • @pngu7 come on, you know he didnt shout at all, he sang his soul out dude.

    I'm a man, and it's freaking hard to admit and not sound a bit homo, you know, not that i care much, but its a male thing...anyways, matt's version at least for me, it's the one that really connected to me, like, kinda emotional I get when I listen to it and I believe that you're a celine dion fan, well I'm a fan myself, but I'm just saying that for me Matts version was much better, more touching and emotional thats all.

  • @cobrafizzo to me he did. But if it touched you, that's great for him. I can totally respect that.

  • @pngu7 how old are you...12? cause right now you're taking this conversation to another lvl.

  • i can remember some silly twat telling me that Celines voice was fake , FAKE its outstanding

  • love this song

  • ME ENAMORÉ DE NUEVO.........LAMENTO NO HABERLA ESCUCHADO ANTES.......ME ENCANTA HABERLA DESCUBIERTO HOY,LA MÚSICA ME DA LA POSIBILIDAD DE VOLVER A ENAMORARME,ES HERMOSO ENAMORARSE DE UNA CANCIÓN...

  • Most beautiful voice in the WORLD!!

  • I beg to differ, sadly. Celine is great, but not the best.

  • @Airframe34 I can't disagree. But I think that Roberta, Leona, and Celine each bring uniqueness to this gorgeous melody.

  • One BEAUTIFUL VOICE LOVE IT !!!

  • @gadawgs65 check out ,the stereophonics or Johnny Cash for the ultimate..

  • Lei canta meglio di Carpenter

  • Is this live?

  • @Yanelli9000 Perché questo è spam?

  • @UmbertoConforti

    Sorry... Spam? upss.! i don´t not understand... maybe some left? Because this melody.. I like so much! =))
