This is about his son that died from falling out of 53 story apartment window in NYC. The child was 4. This knowledge makes this song even more sadder that it already is
No, it's not.
ZootSuitJZ yes it is
@@joshbroome3203 no, it isn't. Another songwriter was working on the song, but was too busy to complete it, so Clapton offered to finish it, just about the same time a movie studio approached him about writing a song for a sound track.
ZootSuitJZ that is correct but it is most definitely inspired by his sons death. Which makes us both correct
@@joshbroome3203 The song was begun several years before his son's death. And ultimately, it was finally recorded for the movie.
This song was written after his son Connor died. Connor was only 4 years old and died after falling out of the window of a high rise in New York City that was left open by a cleaning crew...
100% Facts Pin O.P.
That's sad
I've heard the story before but given Clapton's age in the video I assumed his son was maybe in his late teens or early 20's. I did not know he was only four. I am just in tears now.
Adam McCrory tears in heaven 😢
I just saw this post.. I know it is old..Hope time has healed some pain. I lost my daughter Bailey at 4 yrs..Hardest thing I ever went through..Cancer sucks.
Eric Clapton is one of the greatest guitarists of all time. A reporter asked him “What’s it like being the greatest guitar players, ever?” He replied, “I don’t know, go ask Prince.”
Clapton is a treasure.
Lmao I've heard that line attributed to him many times but never linked to Prince, I've heard Phil Keaggy and Stevie Ray Vaughn but never Prince lol
David Powell I remember that, I really didn’t know how good prince was on guitar til I started watching live performances! Damn, he’s definitely in top Ten.
I read an interview where Mr. Clapton said “Go ask Rory Gallagher.”
Prince couldn't even hold a candle to Mr. Eric Clapton. Not even on his best days.

Eric Clapton is the only person to be inducted in the Rock n Roll hall of fame 3 times. With his band the Yardbirds, his band Cream, and as a solo artist. He is also an extraordinary guitar player. Top 100 guitar player of all time lost in Rolling Stone named him #2 only behind Jimi Hendrix! He did an album with BB King called Riding with the King...its fantastic!
I remember seeing Clapton and King on TV. They are sitting on bar stools in their tux's and Clapton is playing 20 notes a second running up and down the fret board while BB just smiles and watches. 1000 notes later Clapton let's BB take his turn. BB hits ONE FRIGGIN' NOTE that sustains and blows Clapton out of the water. I loved what Clapton did in Cream but not so much as a blues man. BB's one note had more feeling than the 1000 that Clapton played. Clapton laughed and bowed down to him. Saw them both at different times and they were great.
Have you watched the video (The Thrill is Gone) of Eric Clapton, BB King, Robert Cray, Buddy Guy and a bunch of other famous musician? It's phenomenal. 10/10 would recommend.
Time to get Derek And The Dominoes in there too so he can be in the Hall of Fame four times :p
This song he made after his little son died. I think his son fell out of a window from a highrise apartment
Shirley Bartz 49 stories yup 😢
Eric Clapton is one of the greatest guitarists and musicians to ever exist.
He's by majority vote if you see most the polls out there.. the greatest guitar player. He ain't my cup of tea but it is what it is.
Eric is God !!!
They said in England 🤣👍
Agreed👍
@@bnferguson9827 slow hand !
Cream😁
Ginger Baker was the best drummer ever lived.!
He does NOT know who Eric Clapton is. THAT brought tears to MY eyes.
"He looks like a teacher." Yes, but get this...in the 60's, in swinging London there was graffiti everywhere saying "Clapton is God". That's how much he was revered as a guitarist. And then he got even bigger with Cream, one of the best rock bands ever. Then Derek & the Dominoes, then a successful solo career.
In a way, Clapton never gets old.💙🌿💚
Don't 4get the YardBirds
He was a member
...and don’t forget Blind Faith after Cream. The first ever super group.
Until Hendrix burned him xDDDD Just messin, peace and love!
My heart breaks every time I hear this. I lost my son too and understand the anguish he has gone through.
Me too
I’m so sorry for your loss. It’s unimaginable to me. 💜🙏💜
Angela Barazzone I’m sorry for your loss too, terrible to hear such loss. 💜🙏💜
I too lost my daughter and that pain never truly leaves us.
Sharon M No it doesn’t. Prayers of comfort for you. 💜
Hug your children and tell them you love them every day, cause you never know when they'll be taken from you.
You got that right my friend
Lost my daughter at 4 with brain cancer..didn't know it was dedicated to his son❤❤🧡
By now you know this song is for his 4 year old son Conor, who fell out of a window of the mother’s NYC apartment on the 53 floor. Clapton was hard core rocker in his early days. Played with a few bands and heavily into chemicals. This event happened just after he got clean. His music is often meant to touch your emotions. He is considered one of the premier guitarist of his generation. He is in his 70s now and diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy... serious lower back pain. He can’t play guitar much anymore. I know his condition well. I am much younger but I have it as well. Lots of pain. He lived hard and played hard. I am sorry for anyone who knows this kind of pain. Thank you! ❤️
Hon I am sorry you are going through that so young. I'm 64 and no longer feel my feet but feel my back too much. Stay strong.
@@Teresia12 Same & I'm 52, 53 on January 15th, 2021. God bless you, sister.
MS here since 42. Am 60 and smoking my medical.
He’s singing to his 4yr old son. Who died tragically, when he fell out of a window (53 stories high).
Eric Clapton is the only artist that has been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame 3 times. The Yardbirds ‘92, Cream ‘93 & his solo career in 2000.
The movie is Rush (‘91)
Starring: Jennifer Jason Leigh
Jason Patric
For such a plain guy, he is the most celebrated rock star in history. The only 3 time inductee to the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame with a career that pre-dates Jimi Hendrix (who wanted to be Clapton). Clapton received the nickname god. This song is about the death of his four year old son.
The movie is Rush.
Awesome movie!!
Good call
Yes! I couldn’t think of the name. Thanks!
It's one of my favorite movies!
Rush soundtrack is something else 🤘🤘
He did write this song for his son who fell from his ex's window in a New York high rise he was just a toddler about 3 years old. He was on jis way to pick him up to go to the zoo when it happened. Just heart breaking when I watched a story about it.
I know, so sad 😑
RIP

Dude you are on an emotional journey today, but some amazing music reactions ❤. I love this song, my dad would listen to this music all the time.
Unfortunately this song has a sad background, written for Eric's 4yr old son who died. The boy fell from the 53rd floor of a New York apartment window.
He wrote this after his 4-year-old son fell 50 stories to his death!!! The song was in a movie, I forget the name. But the first time he sang this live was at The Grammys that year, and before the song was finished, everybody in the building was in tears!! It was an amazing TV moment!
On February 24, 1993, my 17-year-old daughter and I watched the Grammy Awards together. When Eric took the stage to perform "Tears In Heaven," my daughter was like, oh no, this song is so sad; it makes me cry. About halfway through the performance, I glanced over at her and she wasn't even misty-eyed, much less in tears. She was watching and listening with rapt attention, but she had a peculiar look about her that I had never seen, could not decipher and am still hard-pressed to describe.
On April 9, she would be a passenger in a car that hit a light pole; on May 7, her coffin would be carried by six teenage boys and "Tears ... " would be one of the songs played that day.
I still wonder what was going through her mind that night in February '93, as we watched Eric Clapton. I wonder how many millions of funerals this song has been part of, and how many millions of notes, with laminated obituaries of people's dead children enclosed, Eric has received. Because, yeah, I did that, too. And I wonder if these things helped him, hurt him or did neither.
Eric Clapton the blues and rock man. And can make that guitar cry too. 💯 Rest In Peace Conor ✝🕊
Written for his son after a tragic death....always makes me cry
Very sad song. Another piece of information, Stevie ray vaghan says Jimi Hendrix was the greatest and Jimi said Eric Clapton was the greatest. S.R.V. was the G.O.A.T. ✌
Oddly, SRV and his band Double Trouble had been opening for Eric before SRV untimely death.
Hardly. Paul McCartney is a better guitarist in his sleep!
@@mikewrasman5103 lol, Paul plays bass. 🤣
We understand. I've cried for over the Hundreth time to this song. And do so Every Time; tears streaming, reconunting the day this extradinary world-class guitarist and man lost his young child, and in such a horrendous way. Oh God! And it amazes me that you haven't heard of Eric Clapton! And Cream, Jack Bruce bass guitarist unparalled, at the time, and Ginger Baker; African Style Drummer/Laya with Derek and the Dominos, Blind Faith (meh) . . . compared in quality to the demi-god, Jimi Hendrix. Go check out "Strange Brew," and another hundred great tunes. Layla is fun and commercial, but intensity of Cream at the time of Classic late60's/early 70's Birth of R 'n R stands the test of time . . .
I started crying when I read the title and clicked on the video...My BFF passed away at 24 years old, 6 months after this song was released, it was played at her funeral.
This song is about his 4yr son that fell out a high rise window and was killed. I’ve lost a child, this song kills me!😢
Tammy Pearson. Love from the U. K. 🇬🇧
Lee Perola Love back at ya!💕
You should check Layla by him. It's more fun.
Ohhhhhh Lord...reminds me of my son that passed 😭😭
sorry
@@n3onis ya...me too....thank you
Sorry rip
I'm so sorry ❤️
@@susiejo143 I'm so sorry ❤️
I was driving over the 59th St bridge in NYC the morning this tragedy happened, Claptons son landed on a rooftop down below from the building he fell from, and you could see the sheet covering his body and the police up there , it was so heartbreaking to see . Poor Eric had been through so many tragedies and he was finally finding happiness, and was so happy to have a so only to lose him.
He looks like a school teacher but he’s the Slow Hand himself, one of the best blues guitarists of all time.
I remember when his son died . It was incredibly tragic and it reminded me of losing my dad when I was 12. You wonder if they’ll know you after so many years and so many changes.
Should react to "Layla " live. One of the best guitarists of all time!
As for Clapton, I'm partial to his days with the band Cream. Sunshine of my Love and White Room are awesome
It's about Connor. Cry every time I hear it! Can't imagine the pain!
The movie shown in this video is Rush from 1992, definitely worth watching.
For fooks sake thank you. I'm stoned at this point in time and refused to use google cause I saw this at the movies. I was 18 and did not expect the movie to be what it was but I always loved Clapton, years later in County Jail a guy got off the phone finding out his brother died. We were cool and he asked me to go to church with him before lock down, I knew he was struggling so at the end when the pastor asked if anyone had any thing they wanted to share I stood up and just started singing this. I thought it might help him out... years later I ran into him on the streets and he told me how much that meant to him. I explained the song and we went out after that and just drank, I don't know where he is now but you and this video just brought all that back.
Thank you sir for helping me to remember a time when I did something for someone just because I could without wanting anything in return. I know this is long as a country mile but I'm a writer and got lost in the memory. Thank you again bout to order the bluray of this now.
Clapton is considered one of the greatest rock guitarists of all time. His hits include "Layla:, "Cocaine" and many others. Eric's five year old son was living in New York City in a high rise. The boy pressed against the window pane and the glass gave way. Clapton's son fell to his death. This song is about him.
one of the bbest blues guitar players around -- he is up there with b.b. king, stevie ray vaughn, and does a yearly blues festival that can occasionally be found on tv -- layla is a good song -- there are actually too many to put down here just type in his name and you will find him
love your reactions -- lots of fun
🤣😂🤣😂.. "my nipple itches, don't judge me."... ROFLMFAO, here we go again 😂. Now I'm just trying 2 figure out how in TF I missed this reaction earlier?? I grew up on Eric Clapton and I 💜 this song. It's so sad though, very hard 2 think about the meaning behind this song (especially when ur a parent) 😭. Beautiful song and great reaction Mr. Video 💯! Wonderful Tonight is another 🔥🔥 Eric Clapton song u may enjoy. Hope ur doing well.
Actually it was the third floor balcony (which didn't have railing). And because of that very incident.... a law or federal regulation was passed, requiring all hotels to have specific railing up on all balconies.
The brutal loss of a child.....and Eric Clapton writes this song. Saw this guy live 3 times, and seeing is believing when he plays...it looks effortless.
One of the best to ever do it.....lots of great songs in his catalog. 🎼🎶🎸😎
The name of the movie that Eric Clapton produced the soundtrack for was called "Rush." Starring Jennifer Jason Leigh, Jason Patrick, Sam Elliott, and Gregg Allman. Great Movie!!! Great Soundtrsck!!!
Clapton has one of the longest and storied careers in all of rock music.... he’s still active as far as I know... from the 60’s until now... he’s had quite a run.... and a pretty fascinating life...
All the sad songs lately. This one just makes me bawl, especially once I became a mom. Definitely one of the saddest songs I've ever heard.
This song should put you in your feelings. It's very heartfelt & heartbreaking. Eric's son, Conor, was 4yrs old & was playing hide & seek with his nanny. He ran into a room where the janitor had move a wall of glass & ran out the window& fell from the 53 floor.
It was devastating. This song was written by Eric for his son. I can't even imagine the loss.
If you go back to your vid at 3:45 I think you were thinking about someone & there is a small white orb that comes from your left shoulder & lands at your wrist. I thought maybe you had lost someone too. Much love & God Bless!!!
Wow! I went back and watched! There is a small orb that landed on him!
I love Clapton's response when an interviewer asked him how does it feel to be the best guitar player ever, he said, "I dont know, ask Prince"...
Eric Clapton is a living legend!!
Such a sad song Eric Clapton managed to sing such a touching sad song of his beautiful young son. He was such a lovely boy.
This is the man that gave me the push to start playing guitar 11 years ago, listen to everything by him and his previous bands... I recommend listening to his version of Have You Ever Loved A Woman and It Hurts Me Too 🔥🔥🎸🎸
The movie thats playing in the video is called Rush. Came out in 1991. Starring Jason Patric and Jennifer Jason Leigh. Eric Clapton composed the music for it.
Thank you ! I was here to find out.
One of the all-time saddest songs! I can't imagine the pain he went through losing his son in such a tragic way, and so young. I used to play this song on the piano, and I would get so emotional just playing it. 😢
Won a Grammy song of the year I believe. One of Greatest rock/blues guitarist ever and influenced rock n roll tremendously. His son fell out a high rise window, awhile back he had to stopped playing the song cause of bad memories.
The movie is called Rush from 1991 starring Jason Patric and Jennifer Jason Lee and is fantastic! About 2 undercover narcotics officers who get hooked on drugs and each other!
Ironically, Tears in Heaven was only in the film for a few seconds. It appeared so briefly that it was ruled ineligible for the Oscars.
There is one song just about everyone has heard. It's played on every radio station on the last day of school, obviously schools out. I have an aunt who was an elementary school teacher for about 40 years and she told that teachers liked it just as much as students did. They played this song loud on the last day.
If you have kids, and know the back story of this song, it will bring tears to your eyes every time. As you can see in the other comments, the song is about Eric losing his young son.
"That's what we do here. We don't just listen to the Song..." ...and that's what we love bout u...besides many other things...keep on spending laughter and emotions...all the best to u and your family.
He's one of the greatest guitar players around.
I was really impressed with how you concentrated on the song, without getting too caught up in the scenes from some movie. Lately, I've seen three different reaction videos from three different people, who got so caught up in some attached scenes, that they basically paid no attention to the song itself. I appreciate how you stayed zoned in on the song.
My oldest daughter is named Layla after a Clapton song that you need to check out also my oldest son is named Jimi after Hendrix too
One of the best guitarists in the world, and that ever lived !!!😍
Hes an amazing blues and rock singer.
Still can't believe there are people out there who don't know who Eric Clapton is!!! Nor know what...who this song is for & about. You know from the lyrics & melidy it's about the pain amd torment if losing someone you loved beyond measure. Look at Eric Clampton's face at the end of the song and you may get a clue as to why many folks, me included, break into tears when we hear it.
His *24 Nights* concert was kickass! RocknRoll Blues heaven! 🎤 *Watch Yourself* , *Bad Love* , *Have You Ever Loved A Woman* 🎤 😍 With blues pianist bro Jimmy Johnson. You would LOVE it. (He also been jamming with BB King for years) #blues
Eric Clapton is in my top five of greatest lyricists and guitarists of all time!
Try Eric Clapton Unplugged - Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out. He's one of the best modern bluesman out here.
The movie is Rush... With Jason Patrick , Sam Elliott and Jennifer Jason Lee . It is a damn good movie. Very sad song
Anything from Cream period is the best, Up there with Carlos Santana, that would be a great reaction also. Santana from the Abraxas album. Bell Bottom Blues by Clapton, excellent stuff, Maynard!
The story behind the song is even sadder than the tune.. His wife and 4 year old son lived in an upper floor apartment in NYC.. The housekeeper opened the window to clean it but got distracted (dont remember if it was the phone or doorbell) and the kid ran out the window.. He wrote this song coming out of a deep depression.
Early in his career Eric had some heavy issues with drug addiction (from which he recovered), hence 'I don't belong here'. His son was so young, 'would you know my name'? Great songs are heartfelt. This is a great song.
Interesting factoid: Phil Collins played his own song about his friend Eric's loss 'Since I Lost You' to get his approval before Genesis put it on their album 'We Can't Dance'. Eric approved and then sang 'Tears' for Phil and asked if it should be a single. Collins said it was beautiful but wouldn't make a single. 'Shows what I know' Phil quipped.
His 4 year old son fell to his death from a hotel window nearly 30 years ago. The song is about him. He wrote this and a bunch of others when asked to write songs for this movie soundtrack, Rush in the early 1990’s.
I lost my momma 8 years ago. This song and Mom by Garth Brooks always gets me. Thanks for reacting to it
The name of the movie is "Rush" with Jason Patrick & Jennifer Jason Leigh. About two undercover narcotics officers in the late 70s early 80s in Texas. Awesome movie! Bring a box of tissues. ❤️
"That was deep."
It certainly was.
💜💫✌🏻🎵
E. C....aka slow hand..love all his music. He's pretty much seen and done everything...good & bad...
Wonderful tonight..my personal favorite..great reaction😎😎
He wrote this song for his son who passed away after falling out of a hotel window. I can barely contain my emotions hearing this song as a father to a son myself.
One of the most beautiful and emotional songs, especially once you know the story about his son.
Had privilege of hearing him play at Wembley arena. Mesmerising.
This guy is one helluva character. I'm not sure if I even come here anymore for his analyses or his antics. I like him!
I listened to that song and his other song "The Circus Left Town"(Also about Conor) all the time after my 5 year old daughter died from cancer in 2007. This song was on the "Rush" soundtrack from the 1990's, which is about a couple which is about someone battling drug addiction and alcohol addiction.
You are a beautiful human being ...so empathic xxx
This song was written about the death of his four year old son, who fell from a multiple floor building because of an opened window. Clapton is considered one of the world's greatest guitarists. If you haven't hear his "Layla", you must hear it.
The movie is called "Rush". Great movie. This song is written about his son, toddler, who fell from an NY apartment skyscraper, to his death.
Wait, you DID review this song! I just can't keep up with you 😆
Having said that, I love discovering older vidoes and observe how much you've grown and opened up to your audience over the course of just 2 months. I am sure it's not easy to be vulnerable (even occasionally), when there is almost 100K (😯) people watching you, but it's much appreciated.
The movie is called rush, good flick. The guitarist/singer Clapton is very talented. Good job my friend.
So sad, and painful for the loss of his youbg child. What a great tribute to his son and the love he has for him.
❤❤..Love Eric..favorite Clapton song.
I haven't listened to this song since my mother passed away in July 2020. It still gets me....
He also did a song with Phil Collins 'I wish would rain down'. The video is so great!!
I got to see him live 7 years ago. My mind was just blown away. GOAT!!! ✌️💗😊
The movie is Rush. Excellent!
Heartbreaking. I remember when this happened. So 😥. I can't hear this song without crying.
Yes, it makes me sad as well. I lost both my son's within two years but I'm always aware there are too many other people struggling with the same emotions.
Anyone who loses a child is forever hugged by me. My daddy lost his oldest and I wouldn’t wish that on ANYONE.
just remember hoping & praying Eric wouldn't fall off the wagon. Holding my little boy & being so grateful that I wasn't going through that pain - (we are all selfish when it comes down to it). RIP little Connor & strength & love to mum and dad.
The Movie is called ‘Rush’- awesome flick. The book by the same name was great too.
You are a beautiful soul. I see you, feeling. Blessings!
Damn, my heart broke a little when I heard you say you didn't know Eric Clapton lol. Welcome, brother 🎸😉
GOAT! His only competition was Jimi Hendrix! I remember the day his son died. It was heartbreaking. The boy climbed out the window while his mother and nanny were in the next room. Eric is now remarried with beautiful daughters.
I always love your reaction it gets me through my hard times in my life as you always put a smile on my face I appreciate you man lots of love from the UK My mum lost 3 kids Simon 35 years David 12 years and Arthur at New born my mum listens to this beautiful song to stay stronge as she is a stronge women there is only 3 of us left out of the 6 and I can also relate to this song as it hurts everyday that I can't be with my brothers 😔
Eric Clapton is a blues/rock .musician.
This sing us so beautiful and heartbreaking. I remember when it was first released and we all heard the story of how he wrote it for his son.
This is Blues to the umpgh degree. I lost my firstborn in 1977. So much the words resonates.
"He look like a teacheeer!" Ahaha
God I love Eric Clapton. So genuine and positive. I met him and he uplifted me. Beautiful person indeed.
Mr. Video what is it? Teary Thursday? Damn... chills activated... thanks for the reaction
One of the greatest guitarist ever
"He looks like a teacher" =D
I never noticed before but you are 100% correct. Mr. Hemmington indeed!
