    I DONT EVEN LIKE ROCK AND I FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG

  • This song always takes me back to a happy time of my life.

  • Listen to the bass line. That is Carl Radle, one of the best bassists IMO. His lines here (and on Bell Bottom Blues as well) are awesome.

  • C L A S S I C

  • I hate Opel.

  • Duane Allman made this song what it is...good ole southern boy!

  • During the Coda, those aren't slide guitars. That is Clapton crying, his tears of Love for Pattie.

  • The drummer (Jim Gordon) wrote the second half of this tune. He had schizophrenia. In 1983 - he killed his Mom. Sometimes madness is capable of incredible beauty . . . .

  • YEP...MEAT TRUCK GOODFELLAS IM THERE WITH YA LISALOVE991

  • f*cking awesome, love this and thanks to my parents for teaching me what great music sounds like as a kid

  • Eric Clapton rolling stone the animals AC/DC van halen ect all rock is awesome and time less

  • Song sucks big time after 3:10

  • @bubbsy7

    No, you suck big time.

  • @bubbsy7 I and many others think it is beautiful.

  • ugh. this song is just so amazing.

  • Duane's slide playing is so beautiful, it's haunting! One of the five greatest Rock Songs EVER!

  • does anyone know where i can find the part of the beginning of this vid, the song layla with the pure guitar in it? i cant find it anywhere and i want it so bad, hope someone can help me! thnks

  • when radio stations bother their arse to play list and then cut it short i fuckin scream loudly the word bastards.

  • @MrJohnny4times

    even Clapton has admitte that the instrumental part was a mistake. He never includes it in any live performances. The only reason it was put in the original version is because the whole band was coked out of their heads.

  • @theclicker1 never includes it in live performances, huh? What about this one: fX5USg8_1gA

    Idiot. The second half is better anyway.

  • @Bregowald

    actually, in an interview months after that concert he said that he included the instrumental because he was coked out at the time and didn't realize that it would pull the song into absolute mediocrity. Go with Christ!

  • @theclicker1 So he played the second part of layla in concerts repeatedly for 30 years, even after overcoming his cocaine addiction, yet the reason he played it is because he was coked out at the time? Cool story, bro.

  • Comment removed

  • I feel proud to be called Layla:)

  • @laylaxxxxxxx LAYLA!!!!!!! lol XD

  • The instrumental part brings fuckin tears to my eyes.

  • @DrinkSkateSleep ABSOLUTELY !! even all these years later !!

  • Does any one knows if there is a video of this original ( after all the instrumental part) ? hi from Fresnillo Mex

  • @DrinkSkateSleep omg the fist time i heard this was when i was 16 now 18 and it still brings tears to my eyes, so much emotion and soul put into it. It's beyond amazing!!!!!! <3 to this song. where did all the good music go? All the Talent??? its all on here now and some concerts :P

  • @coreyl456 Get used to it! I first heard this track when I was 14 and now I'm 32 and it still does the same to me =)

  • @Calempaine Kinda hard to dude, I dont get to live in a generation where i can enjoy the music when it comes out and go to the concerts where everyone is tripped out by Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin. If only i was alive back then too bad you missed the 70's and 60's like i did :P

  • @coreyl456 yep it was something to remeber.Me and brother would save our allowance money to get vinyl records from these groups it was a defining moment for our generation some really great concerts and each album had an epic story to tell and they smoked the best weed from Mexico,colombia,Cambodia,hawai­i,thailand,and some really wicked hash too.

  • @DrinkSkateSleep

    Me to, awesome track

  • just listen to the music people

  • OMG! I've been trying to find this song forever!

  • I want to meet this "Layla." She sounds hot. xD

  • @RichieDee123 her name is Pattie Boyd. She wasn't hot. She was perfect. (sorry for my bad english)

  • @melloncollie777 she was george harrison's wife.

  • @rosaclean yeah, and later Eric Clapton's wife

  • There are some songs, like this one, which people should know and remember in their whole life even though they listen to different kind of music.. Clapton is like Armstrong, Jackson, Presley and so - they create music and show others how to do it..

  • @DreamHonour And then the others completely ignore them and BEHOLD Nicki Minaj

  • Gotta love the birds at the end...

  • @ 3:21, I can't help but think of the meat truck in goodfellas :)

  • @lisalove991 amen bro. it reminds me of that too!

  • @lisalove991 I can't help but think of the meat truck in goodfellas :)

  • @MrThomStar I can't help but think of the meat truck in goodfellas :)

  • @lisalove991 Yea,I always think of Goodfellas when I hear it too. Poor Carbone..

  • @lisalove991 lol, the same with me! That stupid fuck Frankie Carbone :D

  • @lisalove991 yea, I had the same thinking, great movie

  • When they found Carbone in the meat truck, he was frozen so stiff it took them three days to thaw him out for the autopsy.

  • Dammit. now i got to find all the people who got replied to by other people.

  • Great Oldy !!!!!!!!!

  • 272 people are named layla

  • @Benoint Why would people named Layla dislike this song? I would be honored to be named Layla if I were a female.

  • @rb12321 Listen to the lyrics. Also, the guy wasn't lying to sound cool, he was making a joke. Stop being a Youtube hater. We have enough of those in this world.

  • @AneurysmT1 What do the lyrics have to do with anything? He was obviously trying to sound cool, or he wouldn't have posted an attempt at a joke, genius. Maybe you should worry about things other than trolling, like how to stop taking wiener in your butt. Fag.

  • @Benoint Your a dumbass

  • @Drbarrelroll369 Oh, and apparently you're* not. You are a retard, and have absolutely no room to insult my intelligence. Go eat some dicks, you loser. Your joke was terrible.

  • @rb12321 The fact that you called me a retard and told me to eat some dicks shows that you are a politically incorrect ignoramus, therefore you are ignorant, therefore your "intelligence" is non-existant compared to mine. Whatever you may say next will mean absolutely nothing.

  • @Drbarrelroll369 Do you not read what you type? I'm an ignoramus, therefore I am ignorant? Your redundancy is enough to prove that your comment is worthless in your attempt to protect your mind's reputation. The fact that I am politically incorrect doesn't affect my intelligence in any way whatever. I just find cursing insults to be quite funny, and there is nothing dumb about that. You, sir, can try again when you've actually found someone you can outwit.

  • @rb12321 My redundancy was enough to prove your idiocy. My mind doesn't have a reputation, which helps me on proving once again, your idiocy. You being politically incorrect does in fact prove that you are wrong and unintelligent in some factors, it wouldn't be called incorrect if you weren't wrong. If you are wrong than in some factor whether it is large or small, you are unintelligent in. The fact that I can conclude this and you can't speaks volume of our intelligence. me > you.

  • @Drbarrelroll369 How can redundancy prove idiocy? Also, if your mind has no reputation, it must be quite simple. Everything you are saying is counterproductive whether you believe you're speaking intellectually or not. Apparently you're saying that since someone defined something as incorrect, then it is automatically incorrect. That is the thought process of someone with inferior intellect. One of your sentences didn't even make sense. Seriously, you're not helping yourself.

  • @rb12321 The redundancy helped proved your idiocy because it triggered a response that proves your idiocy e.g. "Also, if your mind has no reputation, it must be quite simple" (this doesn't prove that my mind is simple at all and it shows that my mind doesn't have one thing to be none for therefore being complicated, not simple). 

  • @rb12321 Also, if it is defined that something is incorrect than a toddler would understand that it is incorrect. You can't assume inferior intellect because everyone is inferior to something higher, whether it is existant at this point of time or not. I checked and all my sentences make sense if you think of how they are said, but I wouldn't expect you to understand. If I am counterproductive I am not finding any problems for myself but for you. I enjoy showing you how stupid you are.

  • @rb12321 Since I enjoy all this, I guess I can truthfully say I am helping myself. Also, if God says to love everyone I shall, I can't force this on you but I can spread my opinion. (god defined hating others as incorrect and loving everyone as correct). So with that I have proved that the majority of everything you have said in this page is wrong and idiotic.

  • @Drbarrelroll369 You are just too much. If you seriously think that what you're saying is intelligent and that you're proving my idiocy, you should ask someone else to read this conversation. Someone who isn't as close-minded as yourself. I should have known you were a hypocritical Christian. No one else would be so ignorant. You can't say that you follow God while insulting someone and expect anyone to take you seriously.

  • @Drbarrelroll369 Really though, you should get a professional opinion on what you're saying. If you think that your intelligence is in anyway superior to mine, then you must be delusional, my friend. There is absolutely no point in trying to prove your mental worth to a member of Mensa.

  • @rb12321 Your IQ must have nothing to do with your logic. The fact that you're part of Mensa makes me disrespect you more for a couple reasons, but mainly because you're using it as an excuse. Basically all you did was make a fool of yourself, then randomly insulted me and finally, used your membership of Mensa as a ticket out of this arguement, fooling yourself as the victor of it. Well I shouldn't be wasting my time on someone as low as you so believe what you want, I'm out.

  • @Drbarrelroll369 You're right, I am using it as an excuse to get out of this argument. There is no other way to prove anything to you otherwise. We are both wrong in arguing. There was no point throughout the argument in which I made a fool of myself or insulted you under a random circumstance. I was just the first one to realize that neither of us will win this argument and it would be childish to continue. You're not going to convince me of anything, nor will I convince you.

  • @Drbarrelroll369 So say that either of us is greater than the other is completely ignorant.

    Oh, and on another note, I.Q measures every different aspect of intelligence. Mensa will not accept anyone who isn't mentally superior in every aspect. This isn't a boast, as I am only making a point.

  • @rb12321 Dude just stop, I wouldn't put it past me if your lying about being part of Mensa, but if you are your not mentally superior in every aspect by any means, whether your I.Q. says so or not because almost everything you said on this page is WRONG. I'll try to not talk to you but knowing myself if you respond I probably will, so for the small amount of your dignity left, just stop. You can even reply to this simply saying fine if you like, or don't respond at all. Just stop it.

  • @Drbarrelroll369 Of course you keep going. Have you still not accepted that everyone has their own views on what is right and wrong? Disagreeing with someone is fine, but to get so angry as a result of your close mindedness toward someone's opinion is proof of your ignorance. Neither of us is right or wrong outside of our own beliefs. The only difference is that one of us knows that there is no winning...We're both stubborn. Calm down.

  • @rb12321 I'm the one trying the one, I'm the one that said I couldn't push my beliefs on you. But that won't stop me from sharing it with you. It's just what you say after that that pushes my anger. I use the term winning because I can't think of a better word at the moment. But if I wasn't there to respond to how ignorant you are being than no one would be there to tell you you're wrong. I know everyone has different views, but your's happens to be wrong and enraging.

  • @Drbarrelroll369 Yes, wrong TO YOU. What can't you understand about that? Insult humor is only wrong to people who can't take a brutal joke, like yourself. There isn't some magical god-written rule that says screwing with people on youtube is forbidden. Do you not realize that people, such as myself, will say anything to oppose you because it's funny? I know you've seen this all before...and now it's all coming to you. "Fuck me, I actually took the troll bait."

  • @rb12321 There are so many things there I could point out and show you how wrong they are but I won't give you the satisfaction :P.

  • @Drbarrelroll369 There is nothing you can show me that will make me believe that it's wrong. I have never damaged anyone's life, and I have success in my own. If anything about an innocent person such as myself is wrong to you, then you are completely oblivious to reality. If you have that much of a problem with words, then you are pathetic.

  • @rb12321 Of course your not going to believe your wrong, I wouldn't expect that from you, I just decided to tell you to have some fun. But I'm bored of you now. Oh yes you have obviously damaged others lives, putting down gays, etc. Whether you have done it directly or not. This is because your just adding to the hate, thus damaging others lives. It's quite obvious that your the oblivious one, but again I wouldn't ask you to admit you are wrong so bye.

  • @Drbarrelroll369 THIS PROVES YOUR IGNORANCE. I have two gay roommates and I call them fags all the time. They think it's hilarious, and they make fun of me in terms of stereotypical guy traits. You are the nutless pansy who can't take an insult. In the world we live in today, if you are that offended by words, I feel sorry for you. Your lack of tolerance and your frustrating arrogance are very annoying.

  • @rb12321 Your not offending me, your offending the ignorant and the sensitive. I wasn't speaking for myself when I was saying that you are helping to ruin other's lives, whether you are joking or not. You think everyone is going to be as tolerable as your roommates? Absolutely not.

  • @rb12321 I happen to agree with you! Back in the good old day's "FAG" meant a cigarette or a bundle of sticks. "QUEER" meant Odd and "GAY" meant happy. Now that I still use these words,suddenly they are regarded as slanderous to Homosexuals! They took our words and turned them into something bad towards themselves! I would prefer that people kept their sexual preferences to themselves and in their own bedrooms! Heterosexual or Homosexual. Who cares? Keep it to yourselves!

  • @Mcsnarly2 Well, there's a difference between hetero and homo's.

    Homo's are fucking faggots.

  • @Drbarrelroll369 your both fuckin losers look at what your doing get a life you sad ginger twats.

  • @garygarsideable The fact that you replied to something you have nothing to do with, especially in this matter, shows you are what you think we are which we are not.

  • This song is insane. Enough said.

  • What kind of retard would take the time to watch a video and hit the dislike? Some people eh?

  • all my loves in vain......

  • 271 people like this song so much that they turned their computer upside down so that they could like it again.

  • @ciaobellakate Way to use a joke that has been used 5,000 times already. What happened to originality?

  • @rb12321

    Shut up, you fucking hipster. This song is so brilliant that it warrants a joke like that.

  • @rb12321

    Most jokes aren't original but people still say them because they're fucking good, asshat.

  • @ciaobellakate Why so mad? It's not my fault you used a retarded joke that everyone who uses youtube has seen a million times already. You're a retard, and you're not funny at all. The longer you continue this, the longer people will see how lame you are. All the cocks you suck must be having an affect on your senses.

  • @rb12321

    Wow. You must have aspergers or autism of just some overall chemical imbalance judging by your flooding of this page with insults to everyone on this video. Good luck with your attitude, you friendless virgin, you complete and utter failure of a human being. Go and do the world a favor and drink some fucking bleach. Leave the precious resources of this world to people of actual merit.

  • @ciaobellakate Haha Jesus Christ, dude. Nothing in that mindless rant of assumptions made any sense at all. I'm a 21 year old student at MIT and I have everything I could ask for at the moment. You're the idiot who rages like a whiny little bitch over youtube trolling. I'm the one laughing, asshole. What do you do with your life?

  • @ciaobellakate Just.... please, kill yourself......

  • @outsider0100

    Fuck you, you fucking cunt.

  • bede bił konia pod to

  • @NadjasBeautyLife anything he does is good Cocaine is good

  • @BIGBEARabc123 sure is.

  • @BIGBEARabc123 Clapton is english mate, as are Pattie Boyd and George Harrison who the song is about. It's england at it's heart and soul, america has nothing t do with this song.

  • @8down10 I am aware of where he is from, BUT all i am trying to say is that his music along with many other artist that come from Europe, for example The Beatles. Have had a HUGE effect on the music industry here in America along with the youth of its time prime example of this are the Hippies of the 60's and 70's, as you can see i did not mean to offend or falsely put info please for give the mistake.

  • @8down10 Did you know Eric Clapton was friends with Pattie Boyd & George Harrison? I read that in Rolling Stone--the issue about the private life of George Harrison! :D

  • @NadjasBeautyLife i think everyone else can

  • Sanity, pure unadulterated Sanity.

  • LAYLAAAAAAA

    

  • Seeing this having less views than nicky minaj - super bass just makes me want to punch babies -.-''

  • George Harrison plays rhythm guitar on this, as Angelo Mysterioso or something like that.

  • @Drbarrelroll369 Excuse me?

  • @NicktoonsRock1993 what did nicktoonsrock1993 say

  • @THEFLYINGREDNECK I simply made a comment that I like this song & that I coincidentally share the same first name with Eric Clapton & Drbarrelroll369 started calling us all dumbasses!

  • @Counterphobias I highly doubt they got arrested. No need to lie to sound cool.
