[@janinemcgrew5089]

Best version,Raw!!

[@Arxane]

This is the first time I’ve heard the original version of this song, and boy, it blows the Rod Stewart and Sheryl Crow versions out of the water. When Arnold sings that the first cut is the deepest, there’s actual emotion in her voice that tells you how much she was affected by that first relationship. Crow and Stewart, meanwhile, sing it so blandly, as if they were telling you they like eating cereal in the morning. This is definitely the best version of this song by far.

Patricia Ann Cole ("P.P. Arnold") was only 20 -- and fresh out of a Los Angeles ghetto -- when she recorded this. It was written by a then-totally-unknown British man named Steven Demetre Georgiou -- who took on the stage name, "Cat Stevens" (and later renamed himself Yusuf Islam. He was just 19, even younger than Miss Arnold, who bought the song from him for £30. Life has many twists and turns.

[@haphun5076]

Cat Stevens had a Swedish mother and Greek Cypriot father but was born in London, a good mix apparently!

[@syedshah9836]

What do you mean, "he literally became a terrorist", please elaborate.

Mr. Shah, you were supposed to reply to "XtreemMetalMan," not to me. He was the one that mentioned the word, "terrorist," not I. I am not aware of Mr. Georgiou's political activities.
