Each night, singing in a club, I noticed the same man at the front table quietly watching me. When I sang this song, he fell in love with me. Our love lasted 45 years.
what a lovely story 💕
With what it happening at the moment around the world, it's nice to hear something nice at the moment. Love this song. Xx
Beautiful story. Congratulations, dear soul. You must have performed the song magnificently.
💗💗💗Oh what a beautiful story. This really is your song. I’m a pianist and 25 years ago, as a student, I was playing in a restaurant and my now hubby was a waiter over to the UK from France to learn English and he fell in love with me playing the piano. Married 21years now. 💗💗💗

Roberta Flack introduced me to this song many years ago and I have never ceased to love it. Now, at age 74, it causes my heart to seize with something unspeakable when listening to Josh Groban sing it. I look across the hall at the man I married in April of 1968 and want to hold him in my heart and arms for all eternity. It also tempers the tears I have today as the Corona virus steals lovers from each other all over the world. It is beauty like this song and this singer that helps us endure. Thank you, Mr. Groban.
Beautifully spoken
Me too.. Roberta Flack.. Josh does a SOFT VERSION....LOVINGLY GENTLE..
Wow!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The very best ever. Love his voice and his demeano Fabulous man
I sang this version at my best friends funeral last week…we’re both 53, friends from birth, cancer was too vicious, he fought bravely for 5 years before crossing over, and this was also the song playing as he died when I was holding his hand….it destroyed me, but he wanted it played during his funeral, and asked me to sing it (I use to be semi-professional)…..it was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do. It’s so hard singing this touching song, when you’re literally crying the entire time…but I somehow made it all the way through, until the last note, when I just couldn’t hold back, and fell to pieces in front of everyone.he was the brother I never had, and loved him so deeply, it feels like my heart will never mend😰😰😰😰😰
May The Lord comfort you always.
I’m so sorry your heart is 💔 broken. I think that’s what this mortal life does to us, breaks our hearts, unless we are very cold and hard hearted.
Omg what a very sad, but touching story. You should be so proud of what you did for your friend. 💕 💕
Sooner or later....someday it release the pain in your heart...you would be happy stay stronger....God bless you always...my dear friend....😇🤗
@@alinahenandezmulach8701 thank you ❤️
One of the most beautiful love songs ever written..." I felt the Earth move in my hand"
Right?? It's just beautiful 😍😍
To me, it has always been, the most beautiful love song every written. And "....like the trembling heart of a captive bird."
Yes he is great but still I prefer Luke Evan singing this song
@@erhardjackel4822 - I saw Roberta Flack perform this in 1975, which was breathtaking. I feel Josh Groban, Leona Lewis and George Michael give some of the best renditions and covers of this song.
@@erhardjackel4822 excellent... Well I will definitely look forward to checking that version out... Thank you.
Thank you, Josh. There's not a bad song on this album. It is a real comfort in a horrible time in our history, political and medical. We look for the bright spots that people like you provide.
So we'll said this brings such LOVE EVERYWERE.
Tremendously we Love our Lord but you keep forgetting you know Abraham that's really important too and you don't mind to understand that but see Jesus use the book of Moses to put them in their place
♥️😂🙏
MY GOLDEN BOY WITH THE ANGELIC VOICE......😇🙏💕💋🤗🙏🙏💋💋💋
I never heard anything deeply touching as Josh's rendition of this song. I loved it immediately when I heard and saw the fan filmed video of the Valentine's concert in Radio City Music Hall. 💖💖💖💖 Absolutely stunning and my favorite of all times!
Josh Groban a gifted singer. You bring life and inspiration to any song and people connect to it. Happy to hear your voice again that touches body mind and spirit.
I DEDICATE THIS SONG TO MY LATE SISTER....JENNY....HER FAVORITE SONG. I MISS YOU SO MUCH 🌹
Here’s a man that makes me fall in love with him from a singing a song. Incredible!
No auto tune with Josh that's for sure....
He's the real/deal...
Loved him since day "one" "1"....
Keep singing dude, you got this...!!!! Just Beautiful
Oh my lord! This is just beyond words can describe! 😍
This song was playing when I gave birth to my beautiful baby daughter 21 years ago on Christmas Eve it holds so much meaning to me as my daughter has had to face cancer at an early age but to me this year 2020 as she turns 21 she is still the most beautifulest face I have ever seen so what a wonderful version of this song and Josh Groban's version will be the one played at her 21st just lovely thank you Josh you are a true gift to us all xxx
What a beautiful story. Thank you for sharing it 💗💗💗
@@PianoAngelicus Thanks so much and yes I did play this song for her on her 21st no party just myself her step dad and her boyfriend it was a precious moment I thought may not happen miracles do exist
@@joandunn864 Joan that’s beautiful and brings tears to my eyes 💗💗🙏🏼
@@PianoAngelicus Trust me we all didn't have a dry eye either with Josh's beautiful voice singing I danced with my daughter and all of the years of pain and distraught melted away
Joan Dunn 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
This is Beautiful Beyond Words .
I'm left Speechless.
Thankyou Josh
May God Bless .
Love from England UK xxx
Josh Groban is AMAZING
He has the most beautiful voice ever.❤
Goosebumps....words can't express how beautifully Josh sings this soulful song!!
I love Josh Groban. ..especially when he sang the songs of Ennio Morricone, but he is not Roberts and appropriates everyone else's music.
I am waiting for him to do Josh..
As a classically trained tenor who also loves ballads ...I am really disappointed that Josh has kinda disappeared even with being promoted by David Foster from out of nowhere. I still love what he does... I was just disappointed that he hasn't done more with all of his backing... He was hot for awhile with all of the TV exposure and then...
Beautiful
Josh is the GIFT that keeps on giving 🎁
IT FEELS LIKE CARESSING THE HEART.BEAUTIFUL
My favorite singer singing my bestest song ever! This day couldn't get any better!!!!!! Thank you Josh!!!!!
I love Josh Groban but have u heard Luke Evans sing this....pulls d soul right outta me, plz give it a listen
@@elainemcdonald1463 - I went and checked out that guy, he good but not anywhere as good so I would have to say no. Others like Josh, George Michael, Leona Lewis are far better it delivery.
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 dark and the endless skies, my love
To the dark and the endless skies
And the first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move 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, my love
And the first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy would fill the earth
And last 'til the end of time, my love
And it would last 'til the end of time, my love
The first time ever I saw your face
Your face
Your face
Your face
Thank you
@@jasminepeardon3099 you’re most welcome 🙏🏼💕😊have a lovely day 😊
@@jdrougecoquelicot2084 have a nice day too.
Quelle merveille !
This song is above anything else,💗💖💝🧡❤💕💞💓💟 so absolutely beautiful
This makes me wanna cry and laugh at the same time. It brakes my heart and fills it with warmth and love.
Stunning!! This kind of music is rare these days.
Magnificent. Simply perfection.
Stunning cover.
This is so hauntingly beautiful.
It gave me chills.
Of course, my man Josh hits it right out of the ballpark with his incomparable sensitivity and depth of feeling! Thanks for bringing this great old song back to a new incarnation...💖
When my first son was born, I would sing this song and make up words about seeing his face for the first time, holding him for the first time. A stronger love I have never felt and this song amplifies it well.
I read that the song is about seeing a newborn for the first time. Many people think it is about a relationship.
@@karenhardie1132 The song is about the love and relationship between two lovers: Ewan McColl who wrote the song and Peggy Seeger who sang the original. That was in 1957 long before Roberta Flack's baby was born. The song is not about motherhood.
I think this one is my favorite!
Oh my goodness!
STUNNING. GOOSEBUMPS. BEST VERSION EVER. THANKS AND GOD BLESS JOSH GROBAN.
Wow! From the first few words I knew I had to listen to this privately. This is the most beautiful version of this song that I have ever heard. Thank you for sharing and wishing you success with your new album!
Nothing but success, every song is exquisite
Love this rendition of a classic song by Roberta Flack.
Roberta Flack's cover is the standard everyone remembers, but the song was recorded earlier by Bonnie Dobson, the Kingston Trio, Peter Paul & Mary, the Brothers Four, Joe and Eddie, the Chad Mitchell Trio, and Gordon Lightfoot.
It was written by Ewan MacColl, who said the only version he liked was by Peggy Seeger, who sang it in clubs in the late 1950s. He said he wrote it for her, and all the remakes were terrible.
Flack's version strips away the folk sound and substitutes sensuality that really fits the lyrics. She was inspired by the Joe and Eddie version.
That voice ❤ and this romance... This album is like a beautiful dream❤
Simply beautifully sung... Of course no one forgets Roberta Flack... ❣️ A romantic masterpiece!!
The first time ever I heard your voice Josh!!! The moon and the stars are the gifts you give with your incredible gift.
🥰 beauty
something i'll never forget...
George Michael version is 1000 times better. czcams.com/video/wXRvZ5kCNeQ/video.html
@@RickiHockersmith83 for me Josk Krajcik had the best cover... GM too slow.. but then again.. GM can do no wrong so...
The stars are our brothers
Babe, people lied to you about are to make you despise yourself. I know, it happened to me. It's one big mind game. It took me two years of counselling to figure out it wasn't me. There were møre of them than me. I assumed it was me. I know you so well. You're a good man. A very good man. I am blessed to be by your side.
This is one of the evergreen songs I've loved and somehow you make it new... it really touching
A beautiful, soothing song...fits his voice so well...one of the best for sure
I was 15 walking into a classroom and saw a new face that almost stopped me from going any further. Next class I found her next to me. I couldn't talk. This year we celebrated our 59th anniversary. Her face still stops me, the beauty is overwhelming.
That's love. That was meant to be.
💫💫💫💫💫💫💫✌🙏🦢
So beautiful
I just love your voice! I could listen to you forever! Your voice touches my ❤️
The earth moved in my hands!! my love!!
Josh Groban, You Sing 🎶 With All Your Heart ❤️ I Hear it in Your Voice, It's So Beautiful.
the world need you- you are a miracle of love and peace-God bless you
The goosebumps just don’t stop, no matter how many times I listen to this. So moving and sung so beautifully. Thank you again, Josh. 🤩😍
You make me beleive that something cares about my feelings! The choices and timing of your publications. Its like someone hears me! Hallelujah! I Believe that im not alone!
🙏🏻💙☀️👆🏼
So beautifully said Shtha!
You are not alone
Thank you Josh for your music, like many others, i can truly say your songs have been with me most of my life to this point. they offer moments of peace and joy and in times of difficulty, they are uplifting. many thanks my friend!!
His beautiful, melodic voice makes me cry😢
Seems to be a new quality to Josh's voice. I'm loving it!!!
Beautiful!!

George Michael version is 1000 times better. czcams.com/video/wXRvZ5kCNeQ/video.html
@@RickiHockersmith83 - Yes, I love George Michael version is extraordinary beautiful and heartfelt. He is TRULY bless with the voice of an angel and the look of a Greek God falling from heaven. My dearest George Michael may you rest in peace. 😇🙏💕💋🤗🙏🙏💋💋💋
Im so glad I found Josh singing this. I never heard him sing it. I'm glad I did get the chance! I like the arrangement too. Also "the first time" I've ever heard Josh without the vibrato that I think he is known for, and loved so much. I know I do. Beautiful too without so much of it! Like fine wine!
FOR JENNY.......MY BEAUTIFUL SISTER......HER FAVORITE SONG🌹
One of my favorite old classic songs ever! You did it AMAZINGLY!!!🥰
The first time I heard this song was Celine Dion version. And now Josh Groban, so beautiful ❤
Painfully beautiful.
MY MOM//LEAST I NEED TO EXPRESS MOM // HOW GRATEFUL HOW YOU BROUGHT ME UP AND NOW IT IS MY TURN// TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND// HOW DEEPLY INDEBTED I AM// FOR ALL OF THE// PLEASANT MEMORIES// THAT YOU HAVE GIVEN ME TO HOLD //IN THEPALM OF YOUR HAND// WITH MY HAND HAND IN YOURS// THIS IS THE MOMENT //I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR// THANS MOM// HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY 2022
This is so beautiful. Brings back the most wonderful memories listening to Roberta Flack. Thank you Josh.
How beautiful to receive this from my love...💜💖💜💖💜
I always loved this song since Roberta Flack. I totally love how you sing this. What a magnificent gift the Lord has given you.
There were also some good covers during the 60s before Roberta Flack's cover.
A voice like that just leaves you speechless. Perfection...
I agree. I read David Foster picked his tape out of thousands of tapes. He is an incredible talent.
One of our best vocalists. Incredible talent and a good guy too.
Hi Josh ….You have such a beautiful voice…I can listen to you endless hours…beautiful 👍
Unbelievable song... And what to say about Josh... Everything is great...
A lot of people might not know this but when she was on the Mike Douglas show the lady that made the song famous she told Mike that she wrote the song about her cat it sounds crazy but it's true. I was watching the rerun on Mike Douglas Josh Aces it awesome incredible
It's so good that this guy was born and gives us his creativity! Thank you and your parents!
It's TOO SHORT!!! ...I didn't want it to end. ~.~
I love this song, and Josh has delivered the best rendition. I absolutely love listening to him. It gives me goosebumps!
You can count on Josh to ALWAYS deliver the very best version/ rendition of any song!
Josh Groban's version is beautiful, but George Michael's rendition is actually better.
@@louisefox4852 Well, tastes are different. For me noone will ever be better than Josh Grobans voice.
Wow! Josh this is beautiful. Well done!
Beautifully done. I felt it. Love is the girl you'd be if you could be a girl. Dr.
God said if he wanted you to be a womb-in he would've given you a Uterus/Clitoris.
Wow! Just...wow❣️
Thank you for sharing your amazing gift! God bless you
The best cover all of time Peter Paul and mary
Beautiful, sensitive, honest and deeply moving. I now have three "favorite" singers of this song. Can't separate them. All magnificent. Kudos to Mr Groban for making the cut into a rarified group. I won't compromise my opinion or his performance by naming the others. He's entitled to his special place as one of the greatest of all time. Bravo! Very well done, Sir. Congratulations!
I suffer from depression and anxiety but whenever I listen to Josh Groban, my symptoms decrease by 80%.😁😄🙂🤗😇💝😃
What a gift you have that you can sing with a voice that touches all hearts that listen to you....
This song is so beautiful. It's the first time I have heard Josh Groban sing it. Wow, what a voice. I love it. 🎶
Leona Lewis introduced me to this song, I was 17 when I heard her version and I must hear hundreds of times a year. His version is very close to hers vs Roberta’s.
Holy. This thing almost brought me to tears. If only Josh utilized the lower notes as the song progressed!
By far, the best version I've heard of this song. Absolutely love this!
George Michael version is 1000 times better. czcams.com/video/wXRvZ5kCNeQ/video.html
@@RickiHockersmith83 That's a great version also!
Celine Dion also does a great version of this song. I would love to see Josh and Celine do this as a duet.
Josh you have an exceptional voice!! I love this song. You gave me cold chills!! 👍🏼🥰
@Suzanne Smith. Everytime I hear Josh sing this song, it brings me to tears, remembering the first time I saw the face of my husband. We are now married for 56 years, he is 88 and I am 83, and I will hold that memory in my heart forever. Such a tender and beautiful song and no-one sings it with more feeling!
Wow! Touching!
Beautiful I'm crying
What a tender, beautiful, wonderful song.
My only (minute) critique is how linear the chord progressions are until the final bridge.
I have absolutely fallen in love with this song 50 years after it’s release and that should say all that it needs to.
Beautiful 🤩
That is exactly how it happened. I shocked myself I wasn’t even looking and hadn’t for 5 years. I kept going back to those eyes that drew me deep within 💙
Amazing and beautiful 🥰👏
Mr JOSH, quel émoi ! - Un HYMNE À L’AMOUR venu de bien plus loin que votre voix de velours ne se joue, voluptueuse sur des parole en beauté - L’Emotion reste suspendue au souffle court. Puis une larme des yeux, du cœur, inévitable... témoigne.
MERCI au nom de Toutes ! ☆☆☆
And So. You captured my heart..❤️..Ir is still yours...🤗
After that first time I saw your face .
I can't wait to see your face Sweetheart!!
Yep...you nailed it...very nice...great album!
It's a challenge learning to trust again, when you have been cheated on and lied to. I am not upset with you. You had a really hard day.
Luke Evans does an amazing job as well, both Josh and Evans have been blessed 💓
This is one of my favourite songs ever. And Josh singing it makes it even more special.
Such a sweetheart!
Start for a journey,. Time is running
Thank you Josh for sharing this precious song! Always one of my favorites! Always get chills listening to your music! Simply, lovely! Thanks dear friend!
SO BEAUTIFULLY DONE!!! NICE TO HEAR HIM SINGTHIS ICONIC SONG!!! HAVE TO CONTINUE TO LISTEN TO ALL HIS MUSIC!!!
This song was written by Ewen McColl, a Scottish folk singer famous in the 1960s. He wrote it for his girlfriend, Peggy Seeger. According to the legend, while on tour, Ewen McColl called Peggy from a public phone box, sand this song to her, and then asked her to marry him. Best engagement gift ever!
I recommend also listening to Nana Mouskouri’s haunting version, which is closer to McColl’s original melody.
Sereno calm........voice..🙌🙏🙌🎶🎶God Bless you🙌🙏🙌🙏🙏🌟👀💙🍀
OMG!!!! This song sung by Josh takes me to another place!
The first time and forever.
