I love be this version of this song. I was there that night, the raw emotion in the air at the first public airing (excluding the recording of unplugged, which wasn't released at this point) of this and tears in heaven made for an electric atmosphere.
Sounds to me like he is just "happy", meaning "Grateful" not disrespecting any of us who have lost our fathers. He just didnt word it correctly...guess we've all "put our foot in it" from time to time...but to me, his meaning was clear in that he is just fortunate to still have his father and he is happy about that fact.
This song is the center of a sad story. Eric Clapton was born a bastard, and throughout most of his life knew nothing of his father. He said once that, after the birth of his son, looking into the child's eyes was the closest he'd ever been to looking into his father's. This song was the story of those feelings and, of course, the heartbreak of the loss of his son.
Eric Clapton certamente está dentro do time dos 10 melhores guitarristas do mundo......The Best Version.... OBS: LINDSEY BUCKINGHAN GUITARS FLEETWOOD MAC...VERY BEST
Ah Hah! Gotcha! Yes, Clapton didn't release this officially until 1998 on Pilgrim. He had this song when unplugged came out. I liked this version better than the 1998 released version.
he's extending his condolences, meaning he is sorry, and that he is happy that he still has his own. and you should probably proofread what you post before you post it
@megafuze08- You have no right saying what any one can or can't say. You are being immature from censoring people for expressing their opinion. So they call Eric Clapton a god. BFD. They aren't calling him THE GOD, or saying bow down to Eric Clapton, he is our one and only God... It is not showing ANY disrespect for God because there is a difference between a god and God. God (capital G) refers to the Lord, and god (lower case) refers to any deity.
Could it be you got the year wrong a bit? "My Father's Eyes" didn't come untl in 1998 on his "Pilgrim "album, not 1992! Something utterly smells fishy here....
People, it is extremely inappropriate to refer to ANY human being as 'god', let alone Eric Clapton. Please refrain from doing that, even in figurative connotation. That's a huge dishonor to the Lord, and quite frankly, immature. Thank you for your understanding.

I wish he never quit the electric guitar. His acoustic work just doesn't compare.
bener-bener bagus ..... good singing n player
@pianoman74
this was never released. he performed this in 1992 and again in 1996.

This is what the song should have been on Pilgrim !
It's really a shame Simon Climie totally destroyed such a masterpiece like this one, truth is Eric had lost all of his fire since the mid 90s.
@@johnconstantinides That's an old comment you replied to. I had to look who Simon Climie was :)

yeah that was in the 90's I think, he didn't quit electric forever haha
Best version ever, I'm not a fan of the 'reggae' beat electric version. Does anyone have any other live recordings where the song is like this?
yes
my fathers eyes was on umpluged ablum but wasnt on cd this is different then 1998 version
Não podemos esquecer também Mark Knofler, Lider Dire Straits
Hes not dead you know lol theres no need to thank him just yet. Hes got alteast another 20 year in him id say.
he's extending his condolences, meaning he is sorry, and that he is happy that he still has his own. and you should probably proofread what you post before you post it

em qual album encontro esta versão?
he is no more a blues artist. he is after money and wants to produce albums that sell. look at this album. he is deadman singing.
utter tosh
alright, some black guy covered this song in the 90's and it was pretty big. Someone please tell me who its was!

Clapton first performed this song at his 1992 Unplugged recording and rearranged it for his 1992 tour, from which this recording is taken.
@@andrewwild7969 Brum NIA 92, missed out on tickets for Albert. This was the version on that tour.
Yes, better don't. We've already lost too many of his class. Nuff said.
wow thats pretty rude don't you think??
