[pgimy]

1:32-1:42 what's the funny song name?

[wroot1]

LOL @ skinner and zoe ball playing music with clapton. good effort guys!!

[AndrewP222]

to all those commenting on EC's sense of humour... he's well known for it actually. It doesn't always come up in his gigs, but he has a great sense of humour. He's a big fan of Monty Python, and loves a laugh. As evidenced by him playing the stick bass.

[mooshimashiroom]

I love what he said at the end of the video! HAHA~ Cracks me up~

[csit58701219]

@mooshimashiroom  plz can show me what did he said at the end of the video?

[mooshimashiroom]

@csit58701219 "I think he should stick to air guitar" lol

[powbaby1]

in the 1986 clip what song is Eric playing there?

[subcomandante93]

man i gotta respect claptons honesty when he says the perm came about from trying to look like hendrix

[JimmySteller]

1:32 - 1:41

Where's that from?

[4rainbowed]

I so love EC's dimples when he laughs with real sincere feeling-- you don't see it too often.

[CavenEdwards]

thats hillarious

[kralle7611]

who is the hot blonde woman?

[bluebrowne13]

Wow - Clapton seems like a cool guy with great sense of humor

[AnitaGofradump2008]

Ok I found out the song is called, Rock Island Line. This version, all be it very short, is miles better than the original lol.

[AnitaGofradump2008]

What is the name of the song they sing at the end? funny.

[mussman717word]

Smoking is bad-ass, lol.

[Catorene94]

This was on my Birthday

[MrHundsome]

[eteachout]

What the hell is Clapton playing?

[dimesy94]

I think i may be a diddley bo without the slide??

[dimesy94]

It*

[romber58]

This a famous "skiffle" song.from the 1950,s.Its how "The Beatles "started and if you look it up on Wikepedia your questions will be answered.

[TheWallGuitar]

@eteachout a string

[tepporocks]

Ah, Zoe Bell!

Where is she now? (That's a rhetorical question)

[dirtysoles]

Too funny...

[AnonymousWhitePerson]

All English people look alike.

[anthonythirteen]

It's the teeth.

[Orageon]

frank skinner is a nerd why eric dont play guitar?

[anthonythirteen]

BEcause it's funnier?

[anthonythirteen]

that's the joke, Einstein!

[RobbieBarnby]

lol i love this!!!!haha! whats the song he's playing at 0:38?

[anveedi]

1: 16 to 1: 23  what did he say?

[FAC328]

"They actually remember Walter Raleigh turning up with tobacco."

[anveedi]

thank you!

[sos60720]

really good and funny

Eric is the best guitarist in the world i think

[sondheimfan1]

YOU THINK... of course he is, nobody has been able to compete with him in damn near 45 years

[shakeshaftthomas]

nahh thts bollocks eric owns at blues but he's not the best in the world on the guitar in genral

[sondheimfan1]

he isn't right now of course... but go look at some of the stuff he did with cream back in the day... nobody can right now or ever will be able to play anything as amazing as crossroads

[shakeshaftthomas]

you know i reakon yungwie malmsteen could. if thts how u spell it

[sondheimfan1]

no he's good for playing his style but really nobody can do what eric did

[bonasty1990]

fuckin right, yngwie plays that new age hair metal eric is the blues man, render unto cearsers that which is ceasers and give the rest to tha nasty man

[bthoma1]

Duane Allman could, and he did..well he pretty much made the album Layla and other assorted love songs.

[wesselbindt]

I don't think there is a best guitarist in the world.

[timmy47]

lol he has a cigarette in the the top of the stick bass.

[jc0r]

lololol so does Zoe Ball too :D

[felixq78]

My hero. Eric inspired me to take my guitar playing seriously and get into the blues. I'm reading his autobiography at the moment, what a life, an amazing guy.

[vieta1972]

I agree Mr Clapton can play stick bass in my band ANYTIME.......

LONG LIVE SLOWHAND.......

[vividwatch47]

Skinner shares the same name with a film composer.

[coolscrnname]

I think he looks so glowing in this interview because he had just met his future domestic partner(?).

[shar704]

im inlove wid eric since i was 5

[bandieraneravr]

which song is the last one ????

[zodiacbluesbaby]

Giggling like a couple of schoolboys.

[pingscissors]

bad bad bad interviewer haha

[mynameisstevo]

i think he is pretty good and funny

[gamoonbat]

I'll substantiate the rumor that the English sense of humor is drier than the Texas sand.

[Ulmeyda08]

That's why it's funny because it's straight to the point.

[Declansucks]

words cant describe this

[MutantLarva2008]

this guy skinner was funny whatever hapened to him? is he dead? aides?

[nooneisusingthisname]

GOD HAS SPOKEN!

let he live a billion thousand years and defend us from the alien invaders.

Eric Clapton... i hope i die before he does.

[jp7464]

I hope I do too, It will rip my heart out of my body when and if I ever hear the news this man is no longer with us! He is the reason I started playing the guitar, I really admire him and his talent.

[mcgurkryans]

Wow... EC is really loose!

[DukeStarbuckle]

That looked like a really fun interview. And Eric is such a good sport. I've never been able to see his sense of humor. (or humour)

[benniedb1988]

damn, Eric Clapton IS!

[9reasy5am]

holy shit! rotfl! lol! Eric Clapton plaing a gut bucket!

[sg31gibson]

this actually pretty funny

[rockabillychickee]

this was just awesome! thnx so much for sharin it! eric clapton is so interesting (and still hot)!

[coolscrnname]

I can't help but to end up all steamy and sweaty after watching this interview (either part). - and I am NOT a gay man. Just thought you would all like to know that.

[eddie1254]

eric clapton = legend

[coolscrnname]

Anyone British -- what does he say in response to "It's what you don't play"? - 'It's all . . .'bong'' ? I couldn't hear it clearly. And also, what does he call the (you know what) in the photo with the perm?  All I could interpret was something like 'a japanese wood burner.'

[pogopogopogo3]

he said it's all bollocks

[89Blues]

He says "that's all... bollocks"

And regarding what was in his hand I THINK he says "Oh, a Woodbine I think."

Incase you don't know - "Bollocks" in that context basically means "bullshit!", (although it can be used in a billion different ways), and Woodbines (if that's what he did say) are an old, cheap, British, unfiltered strong brand of Cigarettes.

[AndrewP222]

@89Blues He says "Jazz Woodbine, I think"... Jazz Woodbine is slang for a marjuana cigarette.

[snookums520]

he said bollocks ... like ball sack, testicles type word :)

[NAZIPENIS101]

He said a Jazz Woodbine.

Woodbine is a British brand of cigarette.

So he means a joint.

[AndrewP222]

@coolscrnname - "Jazz Woodbine" (marijuana cigarette)

[SlipKidSam]

LOL best Eric interview ever!

[clin30que]

the coolest man alive-learned through a life of experience and talent and is meant to be here today to spread his vibes.

[mableh1]

I agree

[MsNoelleK]

Eric You Rock My World and boy you reaaly are getting better looking with age. What a fab interview.

Nx

[mableh1]

Eric rocks my world too, although he say's that he is losing his touch with age. He has said that he can still play but he is losing his stamina.....I don't agree, he still has the "Magic Touch" CLAPTON IS GOD

[TrueMusou]

Seriously, check out his stuff from the 04 Crossroads festival...that man can still shred like the Cream days

[MsNoelleK]

Oh my God.Eric Clapton looks so so sexy on this video. I'm a mad fan but he looks fab on this and Frank Skinner is brilliant and great craic interviewing him. Love you Eric,

Noelle x

[coolscrnname]

Yes, I totally agree. It's nice to see him relaxed and looking happy. This was the year he met his sweetheart (now wife); I'm wondering if that has something to do with it, or they had not yet met. But Frank Skinner is a brilliant and hilarious interviewer.

[SusannaG74]

bet eric was glad to see wba make it to the fa cup semifinals

[lcel3ergslimm]

This Frank Skinner guy is hilarious

[danigoni]

this was awesome, shows that eric is not that serious

[watfordkev]

I'm impressed! EC obviously has a sense of humour!

[Flyerfan91]

who knew clapton had that kind of sense of humor

[splivey]

Flyerfan: he's a really nice guy with a great sense of humor......

[zooyork9213]

double vision is hilarious

[sean808808]

this is a great interview

EC is the man

[SlickSmooth22]

i've seen eric live 5 times, and i've gotta tell ya, i could've used a little more stick bass....i mean he ain't bad at guitar....but when he whips out that stick bass...look out man

[stevedabear]

couldn't agree more, that's some serious stick bass talent he's got there!

[datoobster75]

Hehe, jazz woodbine!

[mlisa2010]

Hah! I love the one-string makeshift bass with the cigarette. Nice touch.

[joebrassmonkey]

Eric is probably a funny guy to be around. The end bit was pretty funny.

[LauriRHCP]

"I think you should stick with your air guitar"

hahaha, me too

[Joehand87]

What d'you make of that...ERIC CLAPTON!?

[bmanmatterdaddy]

lol the end was fantastic =D
