30 years later, and I still cannot hear this song without crying.........😥
Eric Lost his son in a freak accident when he fell out of a 53 story window. That is the pain you see in him. I love your reaction videos very heart felt!
im amazed he still goes strong. he covers it well. most people would just give up
Covers it. Well? Its his original song, not a cover
@Tonjia Lewis indeed
His son was only 4 YEARS OLD
His Son was 4 years old at the time,so the lyrics make more sense when he sings
(Would you know my name,if i saw you in heaven.)🙁
The saddest song in music history. Rip Conor!
When he played this song in front of a live Grammy audience for the first time, and everyone knowing what had happened because he'd been super famous for years, the entire crowd was crying by the end, as well as most people at home watching!!! It was actually something kind of special.
He filmed this not too long after his son's death. He was still grieving heavily :(
Heartbreaking 😞💔 Ik the back story.. but it still tears me up every time
Heartbreaking 😞💔 Ik the back story.. but it still tears me up every time
I don't know How he got through this song without breaking down.
Eric Clapton is the only three-time inductee to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: once as a solo artist and as a member of the Yardbirds and a member of Cream.
Are you a Clevelander? I am - haven't been there in a few years but going in before we move out of state.
Nope, I'm from the opposite end of the state. I'm about 15 minutes from Indiana and can see Kentucky from my front door.
camperoh Cream is awesome!
Thanks for that information.
Even sounds like his guitar is crying. 😭
He was heartbroken, this song was about his 3 year old son who died from falling his apartment window. Love your reaction
He was 4 and a half though.
And it was a 53 story fall
🙏🙏
Hotel room 53rd floor
Yes . He’s son Connor 💔😢
Yes, this is a man who knows pain. His 3 yr old died the same year as mine, both in terrible accidents. It hits me in the gut to hear this beautiful song. I hope you will dive into more Eric Clapton, he is a great guitarist.
Phyllis B -Heard this song and blubbered for the pain he must've felt, that I couldn't Begin to imagine.... Until my 16.5 year old daughter died in a freak accident in 1998.😱
Yes is a tragedy I lost my daughter at 39 to cancer all tho we lost our children at different ages and in different ways it's turns your life upside down and you are never the same I want to say to each person on here that posted they lost there child you have my deepest sympathies and God Bless you
@@cynthiamgrooms8195 so sorry for your loss Bless your heart
I can only imagine the depth of loss the more time you have had with your child. It is gut wrenching at any age. I have lost my little brother, my fiance, my best friend of 50 years and a parent. They are all gut wrenching, but the loss of a child is just different. Cynthia and Anita and anybody else here who has been through it, I pray you are doing well.
I'm so very sorry for your loss.
Eric Clapton is true rock royalty, one of the all time greats.
Such a sad song. I remember when the news come that Eric Clapton's son had died.😢
Was this in '95? My son was just a baby. Gosh a lot of stuff happened around this time, the OJ trial, SELENA'S tragic death. My oh my.😔😢
Sarah Stewart 1991
Diane Mccrea in 1997, my fiancé son’s died and he dedicated this song to his son at the funeral.
Needless to say we were all cried out. We never married after that. I seen him a few years ago and he’s still alone and broken. I’ll always love them both and I carry them in my hear. This song reminds me of them.
@@niccolea2086 yes. The death of a son is a kick in the stomach. Something that stays and ages you. God bless your friend and the other patent. I know the pain
@@christinekelly8766 Hi i went to school with a Christine Kelly in LongIsland NY back in 1990s. Perhaps is that you??🤔& Yes this 1 is piercing☹😔😪 Hes litle boy Connor playing hide n seek with the maid sitter and she forgot to close the window he ran right out of it 50 plus floors to his death 😑😣., i actually to sang my rendition of "Tears In Heaven" on my channel read my description why. Maybe you too also lost some1 that way may bring extra comforts to some1 out here and or yaself.
I still don’t know how Eric Clapton can sing this song. When I lost my daughter a couple yrs ago I listened to this song all they time.
Sorry for your loss. 😔
Never heard Clapton? Omg. Try Cocaine, Layla, Wonderful Tonight just to start. Great job
CREAM!!!! White Room, Strange Brew, Sunshine of your love
Clayton one of the greatest guitarists of my time
He's by far one of the best guitarists ever! Great voice and songwriter, too.
I love Clapton although he was before my time. I love "Promises" too.
czcams.com/video/x5SyDNiufo0/video.html
Lay down Sally is good, too.
czcams.com/video/9hQqP6RNnDE/video.html
Try cocaine...had me laughing. 😆 It's a great song
I cry every time I hear this, knowing the story behind it. 😢
My dad used the play this on his guitar. We played this when he past . RIP DAD
Passed* Rest in peace to your father, that loss is never easy. My dad always played his guitar for us, one of my favorites he played was Hotel California. We didn't play that at his funeral though, lol. This one is definitely more of an appropriate song for that, but I wouldn't have been able to deal with that.
This song breaks my heart every time I hear it. The thought of that poor little child falling like that - unimaginable.
I think the whole world was heartbroken..Every mother, father who lost a child like myself felt his pain.
Hell, as a child myself knowing what had happened and what the song was about it broke my heart and I cried every time I heard it. Still as an adult now who is childless it effects me the same. It's such a powerful moving song, if it DOESN'T touch someone and at least bring a tear to their eye, I think they are someone to avoid at all costs.
Every time the words "would you know my name" are spoken, my heart just crumbles.
Jayvee, I watched a documentary last week about Eric Clapton. So much heartache and heartbreak, that he eventually rose above. He is a genius. I saw him in concert and was blown away.
M May Eric Clapton isn’t *just* a guy who plays the Blues; he’s lived it.
Eric Clapton has done so many great songs over the years. The loss of his son nearly caused him to end his career. I'm glad you chose this one. It's been a long time since I last heard it.
He is a rock legend. Brian May from Queen said he’s his idol. 🎸 The concert for George, While my Guitar gently Weeps.🔥Clapton, Ringo & Paul of the Beatles play with him.♥️
Best version of While My Guitar Gently Weeps EVER at Concert for George. You can feel the tears in EC's guitar.
Speaking of rock legends.... I still prefer the version with Prince, Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne, and Steve Winwood, but the one you mentioned is really good too.
I can’t listen to this without tearing up for Eric Claptons son 😢
Oh yeah, “You look wonderful tonight”.
Eric once claimed in an interview that he wrote Wonderful Tonight because he was irritated because Patti was taking too long to get ready for a party. But the lyrics IMO suggest otherwise. " I feel wonderful because I see the love light in your eyes. And the wonder of it all is that you just don't realise how much I love you."
One of the saddest songs ever! The live version is also devastating.
This is one of those songs that you HAVE to know the backstory to truly grasp its power.
That line “Time can bring you down, time can bend your knee” is so powerful.
This song came out when I lost my youngest son and it seemed to play every time I turned on the radio. Eric wrote it when his own little boy died. Still makes me cry all these years later.
So sad, beautiful lyrics, he makes his guitar cry.
It always blows me away to hear that younger folks don't know these greats! Eric Clapton is on THE list of top guitarists of all time. You should check out more of his stuff.
This song always makes me cry mostly because the story of his son. Great song great artist. 😢😢
This was his love song to his child. Absolutely heartbreaking.
Music can be so therapeutic, for the performer & the listener.
Yep this song gets me every time I hear it. It just touches that primal emotion that you feel when you lose someone that you love.....
Omg I remember my mom telling the story hind this song and it breaks my heart every time
I was inconsolable for weeks after I heard the news about his son Connor. I was a new mum myself at the time and was just so brokenhearted for him!
Man it's so sad and it makes me cry but i love this song. It reminds you how precious life is.
In the 60s "Clapton is god" would be seen painted everywhere. Top 5 guitarists of all time. Love this man. He's now in his 70s and losing his hearing.
But he retains his nickname of 'slow hand' about his guitar skills
You gotta react to Eric's 'Layla' with it's iconic guitar riff. Written when he fell for the wife of George Harrison (of The Beatles). He was George's friend and the obsession he had for Patti Harrison was tearing him apart. He chose the name of the song after a character in an ancient Persian love story, which he then empathised with for it's theme of going crazy over an unrequited love. Clapton did eventually marry Patti.
Great song! I like Clapton's "Layla" as part of Derek and the Dominos from 1971 better than his acoustic slower version as a solo artist on "Unplugged" on MTV from 1992.
Yes Duane played an amazing riff.
It will really resonate when you research the reason for his writing this Grammy award winning song.
I don't recall if he could bring himself to attend the ceremony because he was in untter grief.
The story behind the song will leave you in tears.
No one should suffer that kind of loss.
This song really hits you as a parent and when you know the backstory of this song. It’s dedicated to his son Conor who died at 3 years old from a fall out a window.at 3 years old 😭
Try Layla by Eric Clapton that is his masterpiece.
MIKE WARREN Technically it’s by Derek and the Doninoes
Yea I know but most of the time when someone review's it they usually just show a clip of Eric Clapton playing it I don't believe a clip of him playing it with Derek and the Dominoes existes so when people review it, it is always just a Eric Clapton clip.
Lyle - Both the acoustic version and full blown band - with are unique!!
Now there’s a song with a fascinating backstory!
Best love rock song ever
I can't imagine the pain he felt losing his toddler. This one always makes me cry.
So does Teen Angel from the 50's
Always amazed me how he could do this live and keep his shit together! Sad song!
Just found your channel and i'm enjoying it . I love how you actually listen to the words and the feeling behind them.
Hes singing this to his little boy who died falling from a window of Erics apatment in New York, while he was out . There was a lady who took care of the place , but the boy went into a room where there was an open windo and fell out . When Eric got home , he found that his boy was dead . He sings " I know I dont belong , here in Heaven" because he blamed himself .
Listen to the group "Cream" . Eric sings and plays guitar in it .
Eric Clapton was already a super star by the time this song came out. I think he started in the band Cream when he was 15 years old.
Genesis wrote and recorded a song for Conor with Eric's approval called "Since I Lost You"
Eric Clapton one of the greatest guitarists on planet earth, if not the greatest, super sad song written about the tragic death of his young son......Wow !! too much emotion ........
I can't listen to this song without a tear in my eye
Your reaction is all anyone could ask for Jayvee, I think this wonderful song can touch anyone's heart. Take care and stay safe please everyone Mary-Ellen
Eric Clapton is one of the great guitarists in my lifetime (born in 1953). His aching heart pours out love for his young son. Believe he was 3 when he fell 53 floors out the window of their apartment. Pure love.
I cry every time I hear this song. How could he be anything other than heartbroken?
RIP sweet beautiful angel 😇 Coner . 😇😇😇
Eric Clapton j'adore ❤️ 🙌🙌
I listened him in my dad's car when I was young, good memories, this time.
Saddest song possibly ever made. Losing a child is something I never could fathom going through.
This song always makes me well up, such a tragic thing for Eric to loose his child. What a beautiful song, and as you say it shows in his lyrics and performance how much he loved his son. You gotta react to Eric's 'Layla' (the original album version) with it's iconic guitar riff. Written when he fell for the wife of George Harrison (of The Beatles). He was George's friend and the obsession he had for Patti Harrison was tearing him apart. He chose the name of the song after a character in an ancient Persian love story, which he then empathised with for it's theme of going crazy over an unrequited love. Clapton did eventually marry Patti.
I saw clapton twice see all the guitars when i seen him there were guitars all the way around stage played all of them brilliant
This song puts me to tears
He had to somehow put his pain in words after losing his baby
This song still brings a tear , he wrote this for his toddler song who died in a tragic accident
Eric Clapton has a diverse career. He was a soloist, a member of Cream (you MUST listen to White Room) and the Yardbirds. I saw Cream in concert when I was young.
No words for the incredible beauty of this song for his 3 year old boy ....
Layla by Eric Clapton. Thank you for reviewing the songs. It brings back so many memories and I’m so pleased to see a younger person and appreciate music from back in the day.
More Clapton? “Layla”, “Can’t Find My Way Home” with Steve Winwood, “My Father’s Eyes”. Greatest guitar player ever.
Tears in Heaven was written after his young child died from falling of a window
Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix are always on the top of the best guitarists of all time lists. Now you know who Eric is. ;-)
This is not your typical Eric Clapton song
Years later and still makes me cry.
I feel very sorry for you ,never having heard of Eric Clapton. You have got alot of catching up to to do and you will love every second of listening to one of the greatest musicians that has every lived. Happy listening .
I'm so touched.💙
Honestly at first you made me feel kinda old until I saw your amazing and perfectly accurate reactions to the talent I and many of my friends were so privileged to hear and experience. Yes, there was a time when artist were actually singing without auto tunes...no need because they had god given talent they shared unselfishly with the world. Now I feel kinda bad for all you younger folks!
I bawl like a baby EVERY single time I hear this song
As a mom I will never forget why and when this song came out. I may be an.oldie, but I am a goody. I can never forget parents losing their kids. I was 14 years old when my much older cousin lost her 10 year old angel.
Eric Clapton has been through more than a lot. The tragic loss of his son is unfathomable. Additionally, after a concert one night Eric Clapton was already strapped into a helicopter that would fly him back to his hotel. Stevie Ray Vaughn was on the concert bill that night and he had something personal to attend to and he asked Clapton if Eric wouldn't mind taking the next helicopter back to the hotel. Clapton obliged and exited the helicopter. Stevie Ray climbed aboard and strapped in. 5 minutes later everyone aboard the helicopter was dead including SRV after it crashed into a hillside. This still haunts Eric Clapton to this very day.
"I never heard Eric Clapton before"
Back in the day, we didn't see the faces of saints in our scorched toast - we saw the face of Clapton. Rock God. Please listen to his music. All of it.
How he got through doing this song about his child falling off a 53rd floor apartment... You can hear the pain and agony in his voice, Eric Clapton was one of the best rock guitarists with Derrick and the Dominos (Layla etc etc) then he does songs like this and "Wonderful Tonight". An incredible talent, from the 1960 'till today, one of the best ever.
It's a beautiful song, he wrote it for his son... I cry when I hear it...
Rest In Peace young Connor Clapton.
I recommend studio versions of Eric Clapton's "Wonderful Tonight" (love ballad, 1977) and "Lay Down, Sally" (also from 1977) and "(If I Could) Change the World" (1996), as well as "Layla" (1971) when he was a member of Derek and the Dominos.
For Eric this song was cathartic when you were on the music and the words he quit touring for a long time and wrote the song to help him through his grief and then go back on the road
How he ever gets through this song singing it. I cant even listen to it without crying.
Tears in heaven was for his little boy that felt from the 16 or 17 floor when he was 5 of 6 years old ...and story
From Montreal Quebec canada xxx
Not even close lady, do research before you try to answer a question
@@slimjimphantom6294 hey thats exactly it whatever de fucking floor he felt he died from fallin from the windows of hes mom apartment
One of the best rock guitarists of all time.
Heartbreaking song.
beautiful song. One of my favorites of his.
He's certainly heartbroken with good reason
When I hear this song it reminds me of so much. When my twins died back in the 90s it was a terrible blow to me an my wife. She went into a catatonic depression and had to be institutionalized. They usef electric shock on her. It removed the memory of our children but it also erased her memory of me. She was just a shell of her former self. My grief knew no respite bit time. Last year my oldest son killed himself. He was just 30. I haven't been able to get past it. Now I know I may never be the same. It's cool to feel vibes with you so I'm going to sub.
I pray God will give you peace and comfort that passeth all understanding. Love and light to you.
Eric Clapton. One of the Greats
Eric Clapton originally was in a band called cream, I highly recommend any of it
My heart breaks everytime i hear this song from Mr Slow Hand. I made it A MUST, to learn this on my acoustic.
Javon , the back story to this has been written below.... Clapton just poured his soul in to this .... I cry every time I listen to this grieving
Eric is a pure genius no other words for him, this song appeared in the 90s movie Rush (not the newer one with Chris H) the film is about addiction based on a true story and the song was written for his son who tragically died and because Eric was once an addict he let the song be used in the movie
This song was written after the tragic death of Eric's little boy, who fell from a window high in a building.
Eric was the lead gitarist in the band "CREAM" whom you loved. They were called Cream, because they were the Crème de la crème, the drummer was Ginger Baker. You reviewed Cream allready ( album="Fresh cream"
Very heartbroken,
This song also won a Grammy that year. But his career if varied and lots of rock and all kinds of stuff. Amazing guitarist too.
Literally, there are SO MANY Clapton songs you could react to. He is a phenomenal artist. I love Change The World and the live version of Layla.
Saw Clapton at the Charlotte Colosseum in May 1992. It was the Tears In Heaven tour following the tragic loss of his 4 year son. Sold out, 23,000 that Saturday night, dead silence during this song.
A cleaning lady failed to Close full Door into street.
His son felll Out, and died.
Hej wrote this for him!
When u know the story behind this masterpiece it hits you that much harder 😢😢😢
His young son fell out of a highrise window. This is about him. So very sad.
RIP to all of our lost loved ones & may we have faith that we'll see them again one day!
