My oldest son (he's now 39) was taking guitar lessons when he was 12. I asked him one day when I picked him up after a lesson what he had learned so far... He played this song for me in the car on the way home. I cried all the way home. He played it so beautifully . I don't think I'll ever forget that moment.
That is absolutely beautiful, what a memory!
Wow, thanks for sharing! :)
So sweet of your son. ❤
Such a sweet, precious memory ❤️
I would of cried too! I think its one if the best things for kids to learn an instrument. When i was a kid i wanted drums so bad, i thought i was gonna be the female John Bonham! When i woke up Christmas morning in 1980 i was 11 and saw the drums under the tree i was the happiest kid that day. I knew my parents didnt really have the money, my mom was a stay home mom and my dad was a cop, in those days they made crap money, but Santa had a credit card to help them out!
Only artist ever enshrined in the rock and roll hall of fame....3 times! Cream,Yardbirds and solo! A huge accomplishment!
This is What us 70s BRATS grew up with,, Eat your Hearts out ,,,
Cream and Yardbirds were 60's not 70's but I will forgive you since Clapton kept going for so long - lol - it's a joke. Not being serious. Just to let others know when when Cream and Yardbirds were doing their thing. Although Cream did have some reunion shows later. Of course, Jimmy Page created The New Yardbirds that later became Led Zeppelin - but I am not counting that. It is amazing how many great musicians came out of these 60's groups.
He should be in 2 more times... Blind Faith and Derek and the Dominos!
@@MrLedotson I agree
Hey Holger the crazy thing I find out he only has one #1 song & wasn’t his I shot the sheriff went number one🤔🙃
“Tears in heaven” is a must. A heart felt song/tribute to his son he lost due to a tragic accident.
As someone else said, I would not recommend that song for new parents… unless you want to see them bawl their eyes out
Saddest song ever written in rock
A must listen...sad song he wrote after the death of his 4 year old son Conner who fell from a window in his high rise apartment...just tragic
@@txheadshots "Tears in Heaven" was one of my favorite songs until I became a father. After my son was born, the thought of losing a child in such a tragic manner became unbearable. It became painful for me to listen to that song. I never really though about it before, but now if that song comes on the radio I change the station.
I met a girl on a blind date at a restaurant and after, we went to a bar where a local band played this song and I danced with her for the first time. Seven weeks later, I proposed and earlier this year (and 24 years later), we danced to this song again at our daughter's wedding. Such a great song.
Thank you for sharing such a wonderful story. Best wishes
This was a very emotional song by Clapton but the most Emotional song he wrote and played was ......Tears in Heaven. about the tragic loss of his son
Deep Purples Song Smoke on the Water ,, The long version 1972 ,,,, JAY I know you would LIKE THIS BANGER ,, The GUITAR Riff is the most popular Riff, EVER ,, PLEASE check it out , You will be very happy I told you ,,,, Its a Play list big time
Eric Clapton is known as “Slow Hand”. His guitar skills are incredible. Another beautiful Clapton song is “Tears in Heaven”.
He's called slow hand not for his guitar skills. He was given the nickname because he would spend so long warming up and tuning his guitar that the engineers would get annoyed and gave him that nickname.
YES DEFINATELY...about his very young son, who fell from his apartment window...so sad but beautifully done eric clampton.
@@jedislap8726 It was actually when Clapton bust strings on stage, and the audience would get impatient waiting and would give him the slow hand clap. It was Giorgio Gomelsky, who had managed The Yardbirds, that Clapton credits with giving him the nickname. He had always said how fast Eric could play, so it was a bit of a joke, but it also sounded a bit cool, like the nicknames that old blues players would often have.
Beautiful song, one of his best, but I was reluctant to recommend it because of the tragic back story. 😢
He’s called slow hand cause he preferred to jerk off slowly. And his guitar skills
As a former wedding DJ, I always played this song for slow dances during the reception. It never failed to fill the dance floor.
One of my favorite lines in ALL of music "...and the wonder of it all is that you just don't realize how much I love you." It's such a simple story yet Eric makes you visual & feel every moment.
That line is a wedding vow. Nothing else needs to be said.
My late husband proposed to me. A beautiful marquis diamond in my 79 camero he painted opalescent pearl.. I've commented on this one a few times because I love the reaction and brings back memories and our children, Lucian and Karissa.
1000000% ❤
Eric Clapton is one of the greatest guitarists who ever lived.
BWAHAHAHAHAHA
damn right
@David Powell there is a video of him playing with Dire Straights, their song "Money for Nothing". During the set, a string breaks on his guitar. He seamlessly plays around the broken string until a stage hand can swap in a replacement guitar. Smooth, clean, and if you aren't watching closely you'd never notice.
“The” Greatest! The Gold Standard!
@David Powell your loss
Pay attention.
Eric was bored waiting for his wife to get ready to go to a party .Instead of complaining he picked his guitar and wrote one of the all time great love songs.
Pretty sure this was George Harrison's wife lol. Song was written in '76, Pattie Boyd and Harrison didn't divorce until '77.
Sorry you need to get your facts right. Pattie was living with Eric from 1971 onwards as his de-facto WIFE . They got married in the early 1980's, unfortunately it didn't last and they divorced.
@@russellcameron2551 dude it's not that critical, but defacto isn't wife, so don't you think that's a pretty strong reaction?
This song is very special to me. It was my husband's song to me. We were together for 37 years before he passed in 2016. Anytime it was played he always had to grab me and dance. 💔
"hold fast"! (1Thess.5 :21)
Clapton + guitar = Magic. He has some awesome music in his repertoire. Amazing. So sad when his young son passed away. Changed his life obviously and changed his music in some ways.
Eric Clapton is one of the greatest rock musicians of all time; he has an unbelievably deep catalog of incredible songs, “Layla” electric, “Layla” acoustic, “Tears in Heaven”, are all songs he sings, but he was also one of the greatest guitarists of all time, playing in some of the most important British bands of the 1960s, including The Yardbirds, John Mayal and the Bluesbreakers, and especially Cream. You would really like “Can’t Find My Way Home” which he recorded with the band Blind Faith.
Early Eric, bell bottom blues.
@@Sam-lx9sc
Yes, Bell Bottom Blues. Probably my favorite Clapton song.
What do you mean was?
He is one of the most enflueantual and greatest giture players of all Time.
Don't forget 'Derek and the Dominos'.
I think the acoustic version of Layla is a lot more personal and a lot more personal a lot more mellow but it's always been my favorite
This is a great pick. You need to hear Layla - Both the "rock" version, and definitely the "Unplugged" version. An incredible artist, definitely worth getting to know well!
100%
Both were hits, and yes, they should listen to BOTH! :)
I have been begging them to listen to Layla for over a month now......
Listen to Clapton's Layla and the version by Derek and the Dominoes
Are you 2 going to brag on the 70s NOW ????
When it comes to playing guitar, Eric Clapton is a god. His live solo performances are matched by very few.
I love Eric's song "Let it grow"
As sweet as this song is I noticed that as he sang “you look wonderful tonight “ you two looked at each other you can see the love you guys have. Me and my husband are in our 60’s and it’s so nice to see two young people who love each other.
Tears from Heaven about his son is a real tear jerker.
Great recommendation. His lyrics speak volumes. Clapton is recognized as one of the great Rock guitarists.
agreed
"Tears in Heaven" - unbelievable he can write and then sing such a deeply personal song. Heart wrenching back story.
The background music is hauntenly beautiful and Eric's vocals just tops it off.
Check out "White Room" when Clapton was in Cream. A definitive power trio.
I believe "White Room" was one of the first recorded uses of the wah-wah pedal.
I would also suggest "Crossroads" from Cream. Eric sings lead on that one.
My favorite Cream song.
Especialy in the royal albert hall 24 nights
Eric played in so many great bands but I think Cream was the longest and they were only together maybe 3 years but put out a great catalog. When i read his book he seemed to get bored easily and when a group puts out an album and its a great piece of work , his thing was how do I top that! He didn't want to put out another album if he didn't think he could top the first one. Only a perfectionist thinks like that but its a good thing. Too many groups put out that one great album and spend years trying to top it and never do.
"Lay Down Sally" is a funky little shuffle with nice vocal harmonies.
Love that song! Yes!
Yes. Lay down Sally is awesome. Good pick
I am 68yrs old and I think we had the best music growing up? TIMELESS
My most favorite song of his is when he was with Dereck and the Dominos. "Layla" is outstanding. My other favs: "Lay Down Sally", "I Shot The Sheriff" and "Let it Grow". All are classics!
Perfect love song. If you haven’t done “Tears in Heaven”, you need to. Very personal , beautiful song after a true life, tragic event!
If I could...would honestly give you guys 2 thumbs up for that one. I really agree...you should listen to Tears in Heaven. He wrote this song for his son who passed away.....
Definitely Tears in Heaven
A definite must !!
Tears in Heaven is a beautiful song BUT I’m thinking it might not be a song they need to hear right now especially Amber… Postpartum blues may be hitting her hard right now…🥰🥰💕💕
Absolutely tears in heaven
Eric Clapton's "Tears in Heaven" is a must hear. His little son accidently fell out of a 53 floor window
I agree. It's an amazing song coming out of tragedy.
I can't understand how he can sing that song and keep his eyes dry. I can't listen to it without crying.
@@donaldwilliams4019 It took him quite a while to deal with his son's death. I think he came to terms with it before he ever got to sing the song. Like he remembers the good times and knows he'll see his son again, so there's no more reason to be sad. I don't know how many times I've cried to this song over the years.
MTV unplugged version is incredibly powerful
@@mikec5309 That version was the first public playing. He debuted it on MTV Unplugged.
As soon as he starts singing this I start bawlin. Every. Single. Time!! 😭❤️
My favorite thing ive heard about this song is "this is not a love song. This wasnt just love. This is sheer, unfettered adoration."
You still need to do INXS- Never tear us apart. It has sax, violins and killer vocals. Such a great band and another timeless classic!
Another vote for INXS
I third this!!!!
PLEASE do this song! ❤️
Yes yes yes INXS KICK album’s the best!!!
Yes please do this song if you like sax solos you will dig this great tune R.I.P. Michael Hutchence.
Awe thank you so much for this song… it was the song my husband and I danced to on our first date & at our wedding 17 years ago this month❤️ Another epic song by Eric Clapton is Tears in Heaven, it’s a song he wrote for his 4 yr old son who tragically passed away from falling from a 53 story building☹️ have your Kleenex ready.
This is the song my hubs & I danced to for our first dance at our wedding reception 16 years ago this past June! Love sharing it with you & your hubs (and many many others too, I have no doubt)! 😁
@@susanlangager3568 Happy Belated Anniversary 🍷
@@audracrawford8836 why thank you! And a very Happy Anniversary to you too!
Eric Clapton is like the king of rock and roll to me. His smooth sound that comes out of that guitar is just amazing! He's been given many many awards. He's considered a legend!
This was my senior prom theme song and I love it so much. He’s been inducted into the rock n roll hall of fame three times, one with Cream, then Derek and the Dominoes and then as a solo artist. You could spend a year discovering his music. A common saying back then was “Clapton is God”.
Gerry Rafferty’s ‘Right Down the Line’ is an incredible love song that gets right down to the heart of why he loves his partner. It’s underrated but powerful.
YES! I went into the comment section mention it too. Everyone has probably heard "Baker Street" by him at some point in their lives but for me "Right Down the Line" is by far my favorite Gerry Rafferty song, hell it might even be one of my favorite songs ever. I'd love to see Rob Squad react to it.
The tail end of the trilogy. You need to listen to George Harrison "Something" followed by Clapton "Layla". All inspired by the same woman. Along with Wonderful Tonight.
I'm pretty sure Old love is about her as well.
And Bell Bottom Blues
The infamous patty Boyd
I just saw Eric Clapton this past Saturday at Amelia Arena. He is 75 now but you would never know it. He gave a stellar performance, sang and played guitar just like he did 40 or 50 years ago.🥰
This was our first dance at our wedding almost 40 years ago ❤
What a great song. You should hear "Tears in Heaven", it will emotionally wreck you. He wrote it after the death of his four-year-old son, Connor. Destroys me every time.
This is the one I think should have been done
This song will destroy you, I can't even listen to it , it just sends me to a place where I just cry and cry 💕💕😢😢
I have a hard time listening to it to this day...
This song is so sad and hard to digest. Especialy with a newborn son. Tough choice.
This is a must. Such a beautiful and sad song!
I have been dj ing weddings for almost 40 years and this has been one of the most requested songs
I love all decades of Eric Clapton. He is my favorite artist.
You are so right about the sweetness of the words...it's called romantic! Songs of my generation rocked with romance. Thanks so much for doing this! Do Layla it's about the same woman and the guitar is too much!!❤
His guitar playing is what gave him the nickname of "Slow Hands" He knows how to make a guitar sing the blues without words
He really makes that guitar talk, being one of the best players in the world helps. He also is a great plus writer.
This song was me and my late husband's song . Hes been gone since 2011. We were married in 1992. I thank you for the reaction on this one. I love you guys !!!
Great reaction as usual this is "the" all time wedding song. Eric Clapton is an amazing artist so many songs "tears in heaven" or. Layla are great songs to react to keep up the good work
You need to listen to his song “Tears In Heaven” it’s a song he wrote after his son sadly died when he fell out the window of his high rise apartment. The song is not only him dealing with his son’s death but his worry that due to his past he may not see his son again in Heaven. The song is so heartbreaking by itself but when you know the story behind it you can feel his pain. I can’t hear it without shedding a tear every time so make sure to have Kleenex nearby.
Slowhand. One of the guitar gods.
For more Eric Clapton , check out his 60's band Cream.
Try Sunshine of Your Love or White Room.
Definitely this. Although this is an amazing song, it doesn't even come close to explaining why Eric Clapton is a rock god. Also the original version of Layla with Derek and the Dominoes (not the slow ballad remake from the 90s).
Yes, in Cream with Ginger Baker one of the best drummers in the world.
Kids, this is one of the most romantic songs ever, I waltz round my house with my wife every time we hear this.E.C. is one of the planet's best guitarist/songwriter/singer. You have to review one from his CREAM days "WHITE ROOM", a majestic banger.take care and cheerio from Glasgow.
One of the "greatest rock guitarists" (began in the UK in the 60s, unique sound)....grouped with Hendrix, SRV, Page, etc.. A student and a seeker of the Blues his entire career and still. Music ultimately a matter of personal preference, but he is one of the cornerstones of our Rock legacy.
Clapton is an amazing musician. Please check out Have You Ever Loved A Woman live, the blues beauty will amaze you!! PS Wonderful Tonight was what my husband and I danced to at our wedding.
I'd like to heat and see It's In the Way that You Use it. Good vocals and great guitar (of course!)
Our song as well!!
Hee, love what Amber says about men from previous decades being able to express their vulnerability and feelings for their women because throughout those decades men were told they couldn't express their vulnerability and emotions and all of that 'mantra' was the forerunner to ideas like 'toxic masculinity' that are used to criticise men today ....maybe one decade it will be recognised that men are 'just fine'...and always have been...and we can get back to hearing, writing, singing songs like this again.
One of my favourite songs of all time, even the guitar 🎸 intro melts me, let alone the lyrics. Every woman, so wants this, to be her man, singing about her. Xxx
This has to be one of the most beautiful songs ever written.
I love seeing you both be so loving to each other...having a newborn is hard work for sure but you are handling it with love, it’s written all over your face! Such a sweet reaction from you both, love it!!💕
He is called “Slow Hand” for the style of his guitar plying. He’s the only artist to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 3 different times. Once for his participation in Cream, the second for Derek and the Dominoes, and last was for his work as a solo artist. He is an ikon. Look for some of his older work with those two bands.
If one day Yardbirds will be inducted too, it means 4 times!!
He was also nicknamed "slowhand" for how long he took to change a broken guitar string in his younger days.
He was inducted for Yardbirds, not Derek And Dominoes.
@@ericroth4747 I was just gonna say that 😄
Not quite right he was inducted for The Yardbirds, Cream and his solo work.
"Tears in Heaven" is a song by Eric Clapton and Will Jennings, written about the death of Clapton's four-year-old son, Conor. It is so beautiful and touching and emotional!
Eric “Slow Hand” Clapton is considered one of the finest contemporary guitarist of all time.Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page & SRV are basically the others most people put in there too 5.
When you talk about guitarists of all time, Terry Kath deserves to be included in the conversation.
Jam session. Jimi, SRV, et al, incredible to think about.
You are correct about Terry. There are some amazing guitarist out there. A good friend played with Joe Satriani for decades and others greats Steve Vie but he’s a big Beck fan. The debate continues. Lol.
Can't talk about the finest guitarists without mentioning a comment made by Eric when asked what it was like being considered by many to be the worlds greatest guitarist, "I don't know, you should go ask Prince."
Yeah again so many greats ones out there. Clapton kinda said the same thing about SRV. Prince was quite talented, sounds like you followed his career more closely then I did. The amount of talented musicians out there is staggering, but the best of the best is a different thing I’ve has the silly fortune of randomly making good friends with a few very good recording artist and they argue the same stuff. Lol. The debate keeps going
Pattie Boyd (a.k.a. “Layla”) recounts the details of her life with famous rockers in her autobiography, Wonderful Tonight (called Wonderful Today in the UK). Both George Harrison and Eric Clapton were unfaithful to her. Furthermore, she says that George neglected her in favor of his interest in Indian spirituality, and that when she left and married Eric, the new relationship was troubled by Eric’s addictions. In any case, she sure did inspire some beautiful songs.
She was also the he inspiration for George Harrison to write the Beatles hit “Something”.
I'd recommend "Layla" by Derek & The Dominoes (another of Clapton's bands), and choose the full length version -- it's like two songs in one.
Clapton wrote Bell Bottom Blues for Patti
If you want a good look at her, she’s the young blonde who sits in the luggage section of a train with the Beatles at the beginning of A Hard Day’s Night (ruclips.net/video/68cqDJvzJao/видео.html). That movie is where she and George Harrison met.
horrible woman, couldn't keep any of her men.
Beautiful song. It was my wife and my wedding song. This song and Loius Armstrongs What a wonderful world were our first two songs. Great choice!
Tears in Heaven. A MUST! Get your tissues ready.
Lay Down Sally is another great Clapton tune.
SLOWHAND! One of the greatest guitar players ever
A classic "wedding " song. Beautiful song. Sweeter side of Eric. He is a guitar God . You may want to deep dive him.
This is our favorite slow dance wedding song 🥰
This was our wedding song. We were married in a coffee shop on a Wed evening and the local sports caster, a friend of mine, sang this song beautifully. This was 9 years ago yesterday.
God? Hardly.
You guys are so sweet and I love listening to the great music I grew up with. The music from the sixties and seventies was outstanding.
Tears in Heaven my Clapton is a must. Sad, but beautiful.
Gotta try "Lay Down, Sally" by Clapton! :)
Always liked Tulsa Time, both are more upbeat
When I used to DJ wedding dances, this was always the last song of the night. Great memories, friends.
Oh yes can't go wrong with with anything with Eric Clapton ! I agree Amber beautifully written. 💜 Just want to tell you love watching you guys ! I don't know how old you two are or how long you have been together. I love you guys love towards one another. I know you guys will still be this in love when you guys are 90 !
My ex and I i use to have a band and did this as a cover! Love Eric Clapton ❤
The female voice is Yvonne Elliman, who had hits with "I don't know how to Love Him" from "Jesus Christ Superstar", " If I Can't Have You". She also sang with the Bee Gees.
Isn't it her and Marcy Levy or is it just her?
He is one of the greatest guitar player they call him slow hands cause he can do so much and it doesn't look like he's moving his hands that quick
'Tear from Heaven' always bring me to tears.
Beautiful song. I remember when this was released. It wasn’t a big hit but I remember searching up and down the radio dial for it.
This song and many other good ones appeared on his "Slowhand" album...One of his best!
Listen to The Core off the Slow Hand album
FYI, Clapton’s best ballad, but hopefully you know he’s a guitar god; Derek and The Dominos, Cream, Blind Faith, lots of work with George Harrison including the solo in “While My Guitar Gently Weeps”. Please do “Layla”, the Derek and the Dominos studio version. It’s rock treasure!! Clapton was having an affair with George’s wife Patti, and that’s what Layla is about.
Thank You for writing this so I didn't
have to! I thought this song was about Patti, too? I have to add Eric got her, married her & George Harrison ( 1of the Beatles ) went to the wedding! The best is the instrumental in LAYLA!
@@lindaingallsobrien4217 This song is about Patti. As are various other ones. Something by the Beatles, Bell Bottom Blues, etc.
@@kroft6799 , “Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad” is another.
If you love her voice, the backup singer, listen to 'The Core' by Clapton, she sings half the song with him and she's wonderful.
Is it Core or Cure?
@@JayJohnson-sb7xe Core
Her name is Marcy Levy. On the same album, she sounds super sexy on "Lay Down Sally" and burning hot on "The Core"- a truly underrated rocker...
I think that's the same person who is known as Marcella Detroit in Shakespear's Sister.
Tears in Heaven is so beautiful and true that it's devastating.
listening to Eric always got you in the mood
So much Clapton…
White Room, from his time with Cream.
Tears in Heaven, solo, about the death of his son.
And, probably the greatest, Layla, from Derek and the Dominoes. Arguably the reason he’s in pretty much on everyone’s top 3 guitarist’s list.
I thank my parents for taking me to see Eric Clapton with Billy Preston love at Madison Square Garden. The first time I ever saw anyone smoke pot and it was a very elderly man in from of us. I was 14 and the whole experience has never left me.
eric clapton is so great, so mellow, so sincere. my favorite song by him is tears in heaven written about his son that past away.
Lay Down Sally From the 70s ,, A Big hit of his as well
Pattie Boyd was still married to former Beatle George Harrison when Harrison’s friend and fellow rock superstar Eric Clapton met and fell in love with her. After Clapton finally won her over and made her his own wife, he wrote the dreamy smooth ballad “Wonderful Tonight” for her. They say the song was inspired by Clapton watching Boyd one evening getting ready to go out to an annual musical memorial for Buddy Holly. “Wonderful Tonight” can be seen as a sequel of sorts to “Layla”, which Clapton wrote for Boyd when she was still married to Harrison.
Eric Clapton and George Harrison are inextricably linked. Two of the best guitarist ever to play. Music crossed any divide between them. I made them respect each other.
Another beautiful love song where the singer is sweet and vulnerable: "Something" by the Beatles!
And it's about the same woman Patti Boyd/Harrison/Clapton.
Suggestions:
Kayne Brown - ‘Worship You,’
Kool and The Gang - ‘Celebration,’
Christopher Cross - ‘Sailing,’
Roberta Flack - ‘First Time Ever I Saw Your Face,’
and last but not least ...
Luther Vandross - ‘Dance With My Father.’
Christopher Cross? Is that different to Rod Stewart's ''Sailing''?
@@margaretnicol3423 Yes it is.
Roberta Flack First Time Ever I Saw Your Face for Female Friday.... please, please, please ❤
@@cynthiajohnson592 I'm pushing as hard as I can! Feel free to help. lol
Cry tears from heaven it is one of his most beautiful songs
Clapton - What an AMAZING songwriter.
This song was the third song written about Patti Boyd. The first was “Something” by The Beatle written by George Harrison who she was married to and is a phenomenal song.
George and Eric were great friends and wrote songs together and Eric was the first artist to record on a Beatles track that was not in the band. He performed the lead guitar on While My Guitar Gently Weeps.
Eric fell madly in love with Patti and wrote one of his best songs ever while he was in Derek and the Dominoes “Layla” and she eventually divorced George and married Eric.
Dispute this George and Eric remained close friends until George’s passing.
I came here to say the same :)
That was a seriously messed up time. Eric was openly in love with George's wife, depressed and binge drinking and drugging, while George was married to but being unfaithful to Patti and openly declared his love for fellow Beatle Ringo's wife---in front of Ringo and Patti.
Somehow, in the end, George and Eric remained friends, and George and Ringo got past it to remain friends and even work together several times. All three remained good friends until George's death. George and Ringo both ended up divorced from their first wives and remarried, (presumably more successfully the 2nd time around since they stayed married) and Eric and Patti's marriage also ended in divorce after a few years.
Oh you have to hear his song No More Tears in Heaven . It’s his song about his son Connor passing away tragically. My ex wanted it played at our sons funeral. I couldn’t do it , that’s was his song for his son . My son loved Eric Clapton . I just wanted songs that where connected to us as a family . Yes it was selfish I guess but his Bio logical sperm donor wasn’t in his life . My husband my sons dad was there from 14 months to the end 27 1/2 years later and still today in his memory .
Edit-- oh my husband and I have our spot outside we used to have lots of backyard spur of moment parties . Our son would play his guitar and we would sing laugh . Now it’s just us. Our sons friends stop by and we talk about all their memories here at the house , and we thank god we have the memories . Keep that spot sacred for you two and as kids grow older more memories to be made . Stories to be told , great conversations to be held between y’all and the kids , and their friends .
Eric Clapton is one of three of the best guitarists, along with Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck who started with The Yardbirds. One of the best and influential UK groups of the 1960’s
I adore The Yardbirds! Every phase of the group, including their transformation into Led Zeppelin, is stunningly good.
“Tears in Heaven”. Emotional.
Nothing is any better than when the guy you love sends you this song…it made me melt 💞
This song was millions of people's First Dance at their weddings ever since the 1980s!
My favorite guitar player....so smooth and pure...
Loved it. Tears in Heaven is my absolute favorite of Claptons
Written for George Harrison's(of the Beatles) wife, who he fell in love with. They later married, with George's blessing, George and Eric were best friends. (I guess you'd have to be!)
Tunnel brothers
@@SLesCauley OOOOh ya!
Interesting… I didn’t know that.
This and Layla written for his wife Patti Boyd, George Harrison's ex.
I have read that Harrison’s “Something” was written about her also. Imagine having 3 classic rock songs written about you!
@@kevinhooper3003 Quite the muse for those guys.
@@rickpopham5400 She was quite the looker back in the day.
AMBER Shes a lady .. by Mr Tom Jones 1971 ,, Needs your smile Amber , Tom was huge in the 70s And you can see him do his DAD DANCE
Another good song by Eric is tears in heaven
Layla and tears in heaven are both amazing songs by Mr Clapton, have a listen to these next

This song is one of my favorites. Thank You. May I suggest - "Tears in Heaven" About the death of his son. I have trouble listing to it as I have my own tragedy with the death of my 3 month old grandson. “Layla” Was written for George Harrison Wife. Clapton was in love with her then eventually married her. You can chose between studio or an acoustic version of Layla. I recommend both as they both have their merits. Other people have been suggesting other good songs which I can 2nd. You can look up the story behind each song.
"Tears in Heaven" a must hear from Eric Clapton ...
Behind the mask is another great one
You absolutely have to hear Clapton's song My Father's Eyes, gets you right in the feels.
