My mother named me Laila (Layla) after this song. You cannot understand the connection I have with this song. How many people have sung this to me in my 22 yrs of living or how it makes me feel as it was made for specifically for me. I know it isn’t but I love to think it’s about me.
I would have freakout in the audience realising it was the acoustic version of layla, its like one of the best electric song becoming one of the best acoustic song
Just my opinion, but I think what makes this song (specifically this version) so perfect are a few things: the timeless name/idea of “Layla” (could be anyone/anything); the swampy, rolling melody (akin to Fleetwood Mac before Buckingham/Nicks); the walking nature of the lyrics; a tune everyone can sing and hum; and a class act, relatable writer like Eric. It serves not only as a time capsule to millions, but a song that future generations will undoubtedly come to love too.
I was just 8 years old when I loved this song and only heard it a handful of times. Then 29 years go by and not heard it once. Now found it by chance. Now I finally know the name of the song. It must be a super rare song that is never played on any radio station as I listen to the radio almost every day Its took me nearly 3 decades to find this song, I am now 37 years old
This Unplugged version I love hearing over and over again. Any number of times, no issue. Simply grand. Thanks Mr.Clapton. Thanks Dana for uploading it.
My dad named my dog after this song. We had her for 13 years. She recently got put down and we played this song. She went through a lot with my family. It is very depressing but it feels good to listen to this song at the same time.
For those wondering, the musicians are lead vocalist-guitarist Eric Clapton, backing vocalists Katie Kissoon and Tessa Niles, guitarist Andy Fairweather-Low, bass guitarist-backing vocalist Nathan East, drummer Steve Ferrone, percussionist Ray Cooper, and keyboardist Chuck Leavell.
23 years, I have loved this song. I loved before I even learned English and my love was greater after learning English. Everything, including the back singers, perfection. 🧡
Man, I remember when I first heard this song. I was 4 years old at the time, and taking piano lessons at my local music center. They had a TV playing music videos, and this one came up. Now, 14 years later, I find it. Thanks!
What will you do when you get lonely? No one waiting by your side You've been running, hiding much too long You know it's just your foolish pride Layla, you got me on my knees Layla, begging, darling, please Layla, darling, won't you ease my worried mind? I tried to give you consolation When your old man let you down Like a fool I fell in love with you You turned my whole world upside down Layla, you got me on my knees Layla, I'm begging, darling, please Layla, darling, won't you ease my worried mind? Make the best of the situation Before I finally go insane Please don't say we'll never find a way Or tell me all my love's in vain Layla, you got me on my knees Layla, I am begging, darling, please Layla, darling, won't you ease my worried mind?

Growing up in elementary, I always heard this song on the radio all the way up until now. Never knew it was Eric Clapton. I grew up in a religious household so secular music was limited. These are one of the songs that got me through rough times
If you ever have to explain to someone what an arranger does or what an arrangement is, play them this song! This is the best arrangement of a kick-ass rock song to a ballad _ever_ !
I love how this song is groovin' so hard. It's such a tight rhythmic section which I love a lot combined with Claptons great voice and beautiful arrangement. Great!!!
I met this charming boy one night. We went back to his apartment and he got his guitar. He was playing certain classics, then I asked him if he liked Clapton; that's when he begun strumming the intro of Layla. Now he's on my mind.
Everyone, if you really are that worried about this type of music dying because nobody "young" listens to it. Don't. I'm 16 and appreciate that type of music (stones, led Zeppelin, Hendrix etc). They are brilliant bands, with brilliant musicians. It won't die out, they've made too much of a mark on the world around us. Boom.
April 2019! My 16 year old grandson is learning to play this song! I'm a very proud Nana! This is better than the original version. Yes I remember when the original version came out, I was a lot younger then!
I think i depends on what mood your in. The fast version is very good if your very pumped and happy when this unplugged version is good if your calm and just want to listen to some good music! :)
I lost my high school best friend to a car accident last year and her name was Layla. This song makes me think of her every time I hear it. Miss u friend. RIH.
Listening to all the instruments overlapping and blending together perfectly is like magic This song makes me wanna love someone named Layla!!! This song makes me wanna love someone named Layla!!!
This is always my favourite version of this song, definitely great for driving down the highway relaxing back in your chair as you watch outside the window on the passenger side.
I’m newly divorced. Layla was one of her favorites. After 15 years, still love her like hell. She really has got me on my knees. Miss her everyday. She can be a prick too, but I messed up badly. Not as bad as others, but bad enough. Now I would be happy just to talk about the weather with her. Would be heaven for me. I love you and still miss you...and I think I always will.
I love this version of "Layla"! My best friend John AMORing recommended it to me! I never get tired of listening to it!!! Great!!! 😘❤💕🎵🎵🎵 Miss u, honey!!!
YES! I found the version I grew up with! My parents would play his stuff all the time when I was a kid, so this has a huge nostalgia factor for me. Thanks for uploading this!
This was our song & no doubt for many others too, and now my darling has passed away. This Song brings me Joy & Sorrow at the same time. We saw Eric Clapton 9 times, amazing musician ❤️❤️❤️

This song makes me think of my old Loves. Now im alone, Looking at 62. So many thoughts fill my mind with this Song. I am a drummer. Played this song!!!!
You are loved BOUNDLESSLY by consciousness/creation/the Source. Not to sound too hippy but I truly believe we are all woven in this mysterious force called reality. You are never truly. Lonely. Even if u tried to be. Love permeates, and you are part of this love. Peace to you.
The original is the best. But I love them all. I named my daughter Layla, after the original. The acoustic version came out when she was a couple months old. She passed away in 2011...
I love them equally. This riff is one of the most iconic pieces of music ever written in Rock history. It also lends itself perfectly to an acoustic performance. That's a testament to Eric's incredible song writing skills, no matter what he's like as a person.
Love this song, but that's extreme. You'll get burned out at some point, and don't hit me with the "but no seriously I love this I'll never bored" bullshit, it's going to happen, and you will remember me.
+Hannah Chappell Sorry for you loss but I guess you can't have a better funeral. I bet she lived her life as an angel and with this song, she left this world the same way Hope you're okay though

Closing in on 50 million views...Eric is much loved. I know my life is made better just hearing his guitar sometimes...sweet dulcet notes, raging mad crescendos, diarrhea licks and oh-so inspired chord changes and mis-rendered renderings. God loves a madman and I do too. Bless you Eric, and Conor also.

The acoustic version is like its own separate masterpiece. Gets stuck in my head for days at a time. Never gets old.
For sure! Two different songs. Sending positivity.
This version is way better than the original
Same here. I'll be singing and tapping to the rhythm indefinitely after listening today.

My daughter is named Laila after this song also. Your name also means beauty in the night
*Oasis* made a good song called *"Lyla"* too.
My dad named me after this song …. He killed him self this year… i hate this song now and also the name
It IS all about U Love-anyone says different, have them SEE ME!!!
You should look up the Arabic legend of Layla and Majnun, that's where it comes from.
I would have freakout in the audience realising it was the acoustic version of layla, its like one of the best electric song becoming one of the best acoustic song
Yeah! By far it is the best version of Layla!!!

Now that you mention it, I think Layla and Rhiannon have a few things in common.🙂
I've literally had this on repeat for 3 hours no joke
😆 excellent!!
same :D
I like this version better than the fast version
Aiden Martinez same hereeee
I bellieve you man
That blues riff coming down to the end is to die for. I'm on my fifth repeat
Fifth? You gotta bump this up. This is a rookie number!
ibrahim javed Lol you're right
Bro Im currently learning this song and my god it sound so sexy
For some reason woke up with this song running through my head. Strange cuz it’s been decades since I’ve heard it. What a dream state to come out of!
My mom loved this song. Just found it today. She been gone 3 years along with dad. Glad I found this.
მე ძალიან მიყვარს ეს სიმღერა და ერიკ კლეპტონი

What will you do when you get lonely?
No one waiting by your side
You've been running, hiding much too long
You know it's just your foolish pride
Layla, you got me on my knees
Layla, begging, darling, please
Layla, darling, won't you ease my worried mind?
I tried to give you consolation
When your old man let you down
Like a fool I fell in love with you
You turned my whole world upside down
Layla, you got me on my knees
Layla, I'm begging, darling, please
Layla, darling, won't you ease my worried mind?
Make the best of the situation

in short, love is an insanity, but the most wholesome mental illness we will ever need
whose suffering is worth a thousand fold of pain and torment

It's such a beautiful song to the years. That chorus!
Listening to all the instruments overlapping and blending together perfectly is like magic
Ryan - well said
Ryan you have appreciation for music my friend
Just so mellow
Clapton, the king of acoustic versions that slap more than the original.
Growing up in elementary, I always heard this song on the radio all the way up until now. Never knew it was Eric Clapton. I grew up in a religious household so secular music was limited. These are one of the songs that got me through rough times

religion is a prison. free yourself from it.
If you ever have to explain to someone what an arranger does or what an arrangement is, play them this song!
This is the best arrangement of a kick-ass rock song to a ballad _ever_ !
Wonderful point! All of a sudden you hear the infinite possibilities in what you thought was the only possible version.

Thank you.😊
My Grandfather played guitar like Eric Clapton. He was so talented. He could play just about any instrument.
I've struggled with it for YEARS & not really got anywhere. Got mates who are good & played in bands with people who'd blow your socks off!
I love this version. You can feel the longing.
It's the original and always the best
It's the quiet, understated part that makes this so devastatingly effective.

this is the only thing ive been listening to for the past few days i cant stop pls help
I love how catchy, classy and at the same time completely floating and sexual it is; a classic for a reason.
how is it sexual?
I think they meant sexual as in feel (melody). Otherwise I'd swap out sexual for lustful on behalf of Layla
Exactly
@@pickle2636 Like the man is dying for Layla, sexually addicted.

Same, I was named after the song, and it was the acoustic version for me. My parents used to play this song all the time when I was young
Fun isn't something one considers when listening to an acoustic cover of a legendary song ....
BUT THIS DOES PUT A SMILE ON MY FACE ..🤘
This song is a masterpiece!!!
If it were a painting it would be guarded 24/7!
I've listened to many live versions of 'Layla' and this acoustic performance is perhaps the best!

The first song I heard from Eric was tears in heaven and then came across this song and gotta say I love this song
I just heard it on radio!! It is amazing and sad
This song has a penchant for getting stuck in my head, and I’m perfectly ok with that.
I *KNEW* there was another version of "Layla". My dad only told me of the original fast version, but this is the version I remember more.
The original is the best. But I love them all. I named my daughter Layla, after the original. The acoustic version came out when she was a couple months old. She passed away in 2011...
This a sad comment, in one of the greatest songs ever. If i may ask, what was the occasion of death?
Costas Vassilikiotis fell out of a window probably
Shawn West NO NO NO NO NO NO *Cries internally*

I love this version waaay more than the original. more sensual
me too
they are both good both have a different mood to listen to this version a good laid back kind of buzz

it's much more soothing and cool I think. good taste in music dude.
i love juuu tuu
The audience screams are there to remind me that this is a live performance...such quality wow 💯
Ciao..da.by..gio..sss.primo..group..Milano.. italy..
Best version of one of the best ever pieces of music
My dad named my dog after this song and would play this version for her and sing before he passed away. Now I continue the tradition.

yesSss foR DaaYz!!
Love this song, but that's extreme. You'll get burned out at some point, and don't hit me with the "but no seriously I love this I'll never bored" bullshit, it's going to happen, and you will remember me.

To my babe which is the best “layla” I have ever seen 💗
My cousin was named after this song she died last week and they played this song at her funeral
Sorry for your loss...
Thank you. She's in a much better place
+Hannah Chappell Sorry for you loss but I guess you can't have a better funeral. I bet she lived her life as an angel and with this song, she left this world the same way
Hope you're okay though
That's beautiful
+Hannah Chappell damn, she was young then. 45 at max, since this song came out in 1970. that's rough..
One of a kind my favorite song of all the tunes he produced.
Listen to those words.
Man after my heart
God Bless u🤗😇🙏

Comment autant de personnes ne peuvent pas apprécier ce chef d'œuvre!?
I know right?!
Tout à fait d’accord!
You know your an amazing musician when the live acoustic version shits on the original version. Legend 🎶🎸🤘😎
BIG respect to this guy.... real musician with morals and integrity!
He was pining after his friend’s wife for years and then when she divorced him and married Clapton, he beat the shit out of her.
What will you do when you get lonely
and nobody´s waiting by your side?
You've been running and hiding much too long
You know it's just your foolish pride
Layla
You've got me on my knees, Layla
Begging darling please, Layla
Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?
Tried to give you consolation
When your old man, he let you down
Like a fool, I fell in love with you
You turned my whole world upside down
Layla
You've got me on my knees, Layla
Begging darling please, Layla
Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?
Make the best of the situation
Before I finally go insane
Please don't say we'll never find a way
Or tell me all my love's in vain
Layla
You've got me on my knees, Layla
Begging darling please, Layla
Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?
Closing in on 50 million views...Eric is much loved. I know my life is made better just hearing his guitar sometimes...sweet dulcet notes, raging mad crescendos, diarrhea licks and oh-so inspired chord changes and mis-rendered renderings. God loves a madman and I do too. Bless you Eric, and Conor also.
I haven’t heard this song in so long!! So glad I found it again!
I respect this man,Artist,a great one,he doesn't just sing,he feels and gives these feelings to us
