    • @mikeeslinger4879
      @mikeeslinger4879 Месяц назад +2

      That's not Eric singing falsetto; that would be Nathan East, his long-time bassist. He hit some notes there that not even the backup singers would attempt, haha. Anyway, if you listen with headphones, you can barely hear Eric singing the lower part at times. Overall, they did a nice job with this cover.

His music was so much more than his recorded songs because He liked to play around with a song and add more when He was in the mood, I totally mis him, I never met him, but, He was the most honest and giving person, Thanks for sharing this video of Eric Clapton,

    👍 As a 70ish y.o. Baby Boomer who grew up with Prince’s original, I thought this was a 👏 cover by Eric. It’s a big part of my youth - not only bc of Prince and this song, but SO much more music, AND the good ‘ole days’ of a 🌟 time period of life in general. The song reminds me of many other ‘classics’ - by the Stones, Procal Harem (‘Whiter Shade of Pale’), Neil Young, Dylan, and a LOT more. This is the music that withstands the test of time - generation after generation (whether the originals or more recent covers like this)! * Can’t believe I haven’t seen or heard this before today 🙃.

    Thank you for this posting. It's definitely the best cover and tribute to Prince. One legend, tribute to another. At this age, Eric is still the best at singing, hitting all the notes, and blending his style into one of Prince's signature solos.

      Really? Eric is nowhere near what he was with Cream. Eric was a better player than prince ever was. Prince was a terrific showman and entertainer. But as a player instrumentalist prince was no where near Clapton in the 60s.
