@@tinarowland4120 - Rod Stewart (although a fantastic version) was certainly not the first. The song has been widely recorded and has become a hit single for seven different artists: P. P. Arnold (1967), Keith Hampshire (1973), Rod Stewart (1977), Dawn Penn (1994), Papa Dee (1995) and Sheryl Crow (2003).
On the contrary of what the coaches say you need to be overconfident to make the song yours like she did. Overconfident isn't cocky. Simon Cowell put many contestants down back in American Idol. Solomon Vonzell can tell it. I think the matter is he wants to take control on how the artist sings and take all the control over the production. Look at what he's done to Fifth Harmony, many uptempo songs but no remarkable song that could captivate the attention of the mainstream radio, although they are amazing singers.
The First Cut Is the Deepest by P. P. Arnold.. & It's a lovely song to listen to.. To be honest I don't like the way Rod Stewart done a cover On this song The First Cut Is the Deepest" is a 1967 song written by British singer-songwriter Cat Stevens.. originally released by P. P. Arnold in April 1967. Stevens's own version originally appeared on his album New Masters in December 1967.. Cat Stevens is definitely the best version
This version is the one that is stuck in my head. All the others won't do
Bet you haven't listened to cat Stevens... Give it a try.. He sings the full version no words missed out...

It's Cat Stevens' song, honey. Not Rod Stewart's.
Rod Stewart put it on the charts

Sheryl Crow should be SO PROUD!
it is by p.p arnold, but rod stewart version is the most popular version.
Thank you! Jeez..so many people don't know that. Weird!
It's a Cat Stevens song - a famous singer from the 70's - not P.P Arnold, not Rod Stewart, and not Sheryl Crowe.
Its all has to do with her Tone and the difference between her and Sheryl Crows
The only real success story from Pop Idol...where are all the rest
@JosHMForever December 2011! (and, if you saw this..it means I just made you watch it now aswell. HA! ;P)
The PP ARNOLD version the best and the original.
I think she was weak with it at the begining and then she was just screetching it out. Bordering on good but not really great.
Omg its so nerve wrecking that she cant hit the easy notes
When you are an international star come back and comment. Until then STFU.
