By now,most of us have heard both of these versions of this song. Gord's,originally titled,"The First Time",and Miss Flack's which added "Ever I Saw Your Face." I truly do like them both,even though Roberta's went to #1 and was featured in a TV commercial. I feel Gord's shows a man truly and deeply in love with a woman for "the first time". R.F.'s projects how deeply and sensual a woman's love can be as well as the woman herself. Do you think they're equal? ..or do you have a preferred version? Tell me and or us.

Been me,later!
