- Sungha www.sunghajung.com plays 'Tears in Heaven' arranged by Masa Sumide.
"Tears in Heaven" is a ballad written by Eric Clapton and Will Jennings about the pain Clapton felt following the death of his four-year-old son,[1] Conor, who fell from a window of the 53rd-floor New York apartment of his mother's friend, on March 20, 1991. Clapton, who arrived at the apartment shortly after the accident,[2] was visibly distraught for months afterwards. [1] This song is one of Clapton's most successful, reaching #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart in the U.S. The song also spent three weeks at #1 on the American adult contemporary chart in 1992.
Will Jennings, who worked with Clapton on the song, was reluctant at first to help him with such a personal song.[2] The song was initially featured on the soundtrack to the film Rush, and it won three Grammy awards for Song of the Year, Record of the Year and Male Pop Vocal Performance in 1993.
"Eric and I were engaged to write a song for a movie called Rush. We wrote a song called 'Help Me Up' for the end of the movie... then Eric saw another place in the movie for a song and he said to me, 'I want to write a song about my boy.' Eric had the first verse of the song written, which, to me, is all the song, but he wanted me to write the rest of the verse lines and the release ('Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees...'), even though I told him that it was so personal he should write everything himself. He told me that he had admired the work I did with Steve Winwood and finally there was nothing else but to do as he requested, despite the sensitivity of the subject. This is a song so personal and so sad that it is unique in my experience of writing songs." -- Will Jennings. - เพลง
sungha plays like "don`t cry father.i`m happy here in heaven"
jaebum shin I can feel that too..

My fingers can't do that. I need new fingers.

This sounds way better than his newer version.
We saw all his development as a teenager. He's a growing man now.
I First watched you when I was 8. I really loved this specific cover, bringing me back to those old days really makes me cry. Thank you buddy, those are tears of joy. Love you and your music.
This song is so sad. The meaning behind the lyrics break my heart. This cover is truly amazing
this doesn´t hurt my self confidence as a guitar player. It´s just beautiful!!!!
and one day, if I really want I could be able to play like that too.
i'm probably thinking about food, card games and ways to skip school when i was his age
think he skipped school to play the guitar. lol. Seeing how he turned out I would support that decision but then again I am from Cape Breton
Found this gem looking through my favorite videos. My very first favorite video on TH-cam.
I first listened to your cover in 2013 and here I am back again in 2019.. one of my favorites hands down
my favorite sungha jung video ;_; this one just has the perfect mood to it... i mean look at the sun shining on sungha from the back ;_; just brings this overall warm feeling to everything
You do know the song is about eric clap tons song dying?
Maybe his song was supposed to give warmth to us all. We all have our own perspectives.

2021 now still listening his old covers😇
It is the difference between radio and television. I was pleased to learn in many radio interviews, that the beautiful voice you hear coming out of your radio, is coming from a person in a wheelchair, a blind person or a person that has a handicap that in no way hurts them professionally.
This kid is truly something special. He does things I've never seen anyone do. Never seen anyone maintain a lead melody and still play the rhythm chords like he does. Even Clapton considered to be one of the greatest plays it nothing like this. Yet you know what he is playing. I'm not sure even Eric could play it like this if he tried.
전 이 영상에 정성하를 알게되었고 계속 음악을 듣게되었어요 .. 이영상때문에 tears in heaven이 좋아졌고 eric clapton이 좋아졌고 정성하가 좋아진 의미있는 영상이에요. 처음 알았던게 초등학교 6학년이였고 지금이 고삼이니까 무려 6년이나 지났는데 아직도 감동적인 기타연주. 대학 가면 공연도 가고 만나보고싶어요. 이 글을 보실지 모르겠지만 고삼생활의 힐링음악 감사합니다.
This kid has real talent...
몇번을 들어도 정말 좋아요~ 항상 좋은음악 고마워요
God bless Sungha
One in a million.
Makes me feel very relax listening the music.
Do this cover again! You're older and better now! It would be awesome!
+EtherealoNe1 and less smile :((
+Fahlevi Andika Putra He smiles. You'll catch them if you really study the video. He smiles.
EtherealoNe1 He put out another cover of this today!!! Guess you got your wish!!
Btw this video is still insane 12 years later!
i can't imagine what it must be like to have this kind of natural talent. i struggle like a dog for each tiny accomplishment. he is an inspiration for sure!
this year in 2018, I still see and listen to guitar excerpts from a Master Guitar Sungha Jung, and Tears in heaven is very comfortable to hear when he who plays his guitar, hopefully Sungha Jung can return to Indonesia
I would love to see "Fast car" by Tracy Chapman made by Sungha!
Yees, has he covered it yet?
guitar is too easy for this kid, time for him to write his own stuff, and shock the world
oldcutler100 lol, check the chanel.. this is from 2008
He makes it seem so freaking simple and inspires me to reach for my guitar. (I then sob in shame for not being able to reach his level as an adult :-'(
Sunghs is such a genius. He is an amazing musician at this young age. It is so great to listen his brilliant style on U tube.
I have no words .. This is so beautiful .. This emotions in this song .. AMAZING ..
WTF, there is noooooooo way he arranged this. It took me 5 years of music theory to just to understand that notes behind this perfect arrangement.
the*
obama8mychickenz it was arranged by masa sumide
Time to get a refund.
obama8mychickenz this arragmend is by an other man ;)
you don't need to know music theory to write songs if you have perfect pitch you know what goes together, jimi hendrix was self taught no music theory classes
watching in 2016? How inspiring isnt?
i was this 3 years ago and still got impressed
talented boy
sounds like it with lots of flavour, not sad enough, too happy
Eric was in lots of pain when he wrote this.
Let's just take into consideration that he was lacking that life experience at 8
I like this better than the new cover he did
2019 everyoneeeee
This boy's talent is extreme and I lay down my guitar to him any day, but when he plays these songs that have so much feeling and emotion in them, and are highly personal to it's composer, you can tell the lack of emotion, in this song and a couple others he plays. I would like to see this kid keep playing the guitar, I know he can express the feelings through the strings when he is in the right mood.
This song makes me cry everytime I hear it. I can't imagine what Eric Clapton was going through when he wrote this after his son died. It is beautiful and I hope my daughters will know me when I see them in Heaven.

hey lawliet
Wrote the comment with your eyes closed?
I don't know if anybody has asked this or not , but does anyone know what kind of guitar he is playing? I want one. Thanks :)
+Christian Gasior sorry for wrong first reply. so i quote correct info from sungha`s web site. maybe there is no same model because customized only for sungha`s size. if you want your custom one, contact www.selmastory.com ."When Sungha’s dad was looking for a better guitar, one famous Korean guitar manufacturer “Selma” proposed to make the custom guitar for him.Selma sponsored him a small-combo sized “All Spruce” model, and this became Sungha’s third guitar. This guitar is also recognized as ‘a signed-guitar’ by his youtube fans. The story is that Thomas Leeb and Sungha became friends after Thomas watched Sungha’s playing his arrangements and invited him to his concert. Thomas Leeb wrote on this third guitar,“Keep on Grooving, To my Friend, Thomas Leeb”. This guitar soon became Sungha’s best partner as well as the best friend during his skill grew most rapidly. "
Thank you so much :)
The song with sad story... I love this song because I can feel Clapton's emotion that miss his son...
Love this. True musician and instrumentalist.

well done!! however u modified too much and it sounded a bit off track.
Still nice and splendid!
Edmund Scott Yes, I thought some notes sounded flattish sometimes.......great player though, was it someone else's compositional arrangement I wonder !!............seems strange !!.....
In the description they said it was arranged by Masa Sumide
Kristin Lau o.k...... I would not want to be restricted to playing just what was put before me !.... I would have to have a certain amount of freedom in my interpretation of it !!.....it's getting late........let's move on !!........
SOMETIMES SOUND'S OUT OF TUNE OR IN A DIFFERENT SCALE
Ruben Lago It does to me as well !!...
sad face ... make happy your futher and mom
