  • cool song ,a tribute to his son Conor! ,what a loveing Dad!

  • you genious, eric!!!

  • my first time seeing this video of this song I can see in his eyes the only thing on his mind when he is singing this song is his missing son you can all most see the sull of his son in his eyes if you do readings then you should see what I mean even if you dont do readings look at his eyes when he sings poor guy no money can ever take his pain away in his heart

  • Eric wrote this beautiful song for his little boy whom died tragically.

  • I think of all the people that I know who passed away. Tears :-(

  • Addicted to this song! 

  • Clapton has since retired this song, and what a noble thing to do with this meaningful piece.

  • THIS is the best version of this song!! I LOVE Eric Clapton!!

  • This is brilliant, nobody plays guitar better than Eric, he does use his little finger, but he's very fast with the other ones too.

  • it breaks my heart that he doesn't use his little finger. ;(

  • beautiful song!

  • Man I love this song. But it's so sad to see so many people having to grasp a hold of the cross during sad points in their life. Unable to accept the harsh realities of the world and flat out lying to themselves. I'm not judging, it's just sad.

  • dedicate this song to our dear friend.. Reden Peregil.. I dont know if it will be the same without you.. All Saints School will miss u so much.. Your death is a tragic to all of us.. but I believe theres no tears in heaven and you will find justice in Gods way...

  • I think he's trying not to cry.

  • 89 ppl didnt get to heaven

  • He always takes a few simple chords and turns them into incredibly powerful songs that stay with you forever.

  • que triste cancion 

  • genial kann man dazu nur sagen ^^ Eric ^^

  • this song makes me wish there was an after life

  • every time i listen to this song i just prey to god "dont ever let this happen to anyone else it didnt even have to happen once." R.I.P.

  • Thumbs up if you think Clapton here looks a little like Hugh Laurie in House MD, lol.

  • miss my twin and he does knows my name love you den,untill then

  • My every day playlist on youtube :

    1 - Eric Clapton - Tears in Heaven

    2 - Jimi Hendrix - Cocaine

    3 - Metallica - Fade to Black

  • mucha emocion al escuchar esta bella cancion de Eric Clapton...!!!

  • hammer song... weckt viele erinnerungen,wenn man sich allein fühlt... tränen laufen jedes mal übers gesicht... <3 <3 <3 TIM <3 <3 <3

  • watch?v=jKnaeyYBPQA

  • How in the hell can you dislike this song? 87 people have never lost someone close to them I assume.

  • I´ts called love…..

  • This song is definitely dedicated to my dad that died on 09/24/2011. I love you pops. For everyone else that has to deal with the emotions that comes along with losing someone so dear and close....I know everyone says it gets better...it doesn't but hold you head up high and embrace what they left behind...because its there life that brings everyone else together.

    love,

    Michael

  • RIp Ben my loving brother. Stolen from our lives November 12, 2011. 32 is too young to die. Closure seems so far away. Nothing will ever be the same. You will be sorely missed. 

  • always did love his music and always will jam on clapton !

  • My step son has just died in a car accident and I can't think o f anything else. His smile, his living the life to the full. Now I'm glad he did so, maybe he new he didn't have long. God, it's so sad!

  • Thumbs up if you know why Eric Clapton/Will Jennings Wrote this!

  • @gitarbest Eric wrote it for his son...maybe if you read the comments youd see that his son passed away.

  • @Luigi9913 Of course i know that..I just said "Thums up" if you know why he wrote this and you know it .Then tumbs up!

  • my son was only 6.5 weeks old and I wish everyday I could be there with him

  • Saurais-tu mon nom, si je t'avais vu au paradis?

    Est-ce que ça aurait été pareil, si je t'avais vu au paradis?

    Je dois être fort et continuer

    Parce que je sais que ma place n'est pas ici au paradis

    Me tiendrais-tu la main, si je t'avais vu au paradis?

    M'aiderais-tu à combattre, si je t'avais vu au paradis?

    J'y retrouverai mon chemin nuit et jour

    Parce que je sais que je ne peux pas rester

  • No words can describe how much i cry every time i heard this song... every time.. it just amazing...

  • I feel like it doesnt matter how long you've been singing or how much you've achieved with your voice -it wouldnt matter: this song can only be sung by Eric

  • Dedicated to my little Moses who left this world being just a baby to become an angel I love so much and 09/03/2009 will be for ever the sadest day of my miserable life...:'(

  • @MegaGuitar78 shut up.

  • In the US, 5,000 kids every year die this way.

  • @turbonerd42 Where do you get your facts,are you saying 5,000 kids a year in the United States Of America die from falling out a window 5 or 6 stories high which is why Eric Clapton wrote this song for his kid who died that way?

  • @MrMegaFredzeppelin I saw it on CBS a few days ago. Just google "falls from windows injure children" . I didn't remember it correctly - 5,000 kids are injured from falls every year. Not all of them are killed.

  • @turbonerd42 That's more like it as I thought that number was way to high big time, at least I know your not crazy.Take care and ROCK ON!!!!!!!

  • Who the fuck dislikes Eric Clapton

  • @smokeyjrs420 This is a beautiful song. This isn't a good place for ugly comments.

  • @smokeyjrs420 (bruno....justin bieber...taylor swift ...etc crappy music) 's fans...........lolZ

  • @smokeyjrs420  justin bieber...

  • @smokeyjrs420 i do .. so what u gonna do about it ?

  • @yondaimeeeeee troll you hard my friend... haha nah jokes, but seriously lol?

  • @EchoedAcoustics hehehe :

  • eric clapton is a god

  • there isnt another song written and played by such a great artist around that has so much meaning and soul to it,too bad it was written out of erics own tragity,love ya eric keep putting it out there we all appreciate it more than you would ever know cause this song touches everyone some or some day,rock on bro

  • @722tea You are wrong. There is any song with such emotions. Here we can hear sadness, but we can hear also hope. But try "when a blind man cries" by Deep Purple. Amazing load of emotions and sadness. Without hope. Just sorrow of poor, lone, blind man.

  • @janekfr i dont get what i am wrong about,its my opinoin of a song,that i love,i know there are alot of songs out there i just happen to think what i wrote,while listening to it,most blues songs are, are of a tragity ,sorrow,saddness,and so forth pain,and some with an interpation of hope and healing,thats why we listen cause it makes us or i should me feel better

  • @janekfr i dont get what i am wrong about,its my opinoin of a song,that i love,i know there are alot of songs out there i just happen to think what i wrote,while listening to it,most blues songs are, are of a tragity ,sorrow,saddness,and so forth pain,and some with an interpation of hope and healing,thats why we listen cause it makes us or should i say me feel better,and i will listen to deep purple cause love deep purple also

  • @janekfr ,i thot i was commneting on the song by eric clapton called "RIVER OF TEARS"which is more eletric blues tune which has all what i apparently had to say about" tears in heaven",smae bluesy tune but we all know tears in heaven was written for his tragic loss of his son,love clapton,love deep purple,i wrote sum other stuff but dont know wher it went and dont feel like re-writing it at this moment,so rock-on,janekfr

  • @722tea But it's still great and deep song. I love way he is singing and I'm sorry about his son.

  • @janekfr just listened to when a blind man cries i liked it,dont know how it got by me because machine head is one of my favorite albums,have it on vinyl and probably wore out an 8 track or 2 ,different time for me then but was always a bluse/rockin blues lover,i think clapton lays the blues down as best as any of the top blues artist still living,and dead,deep purple is a hard head banging rock band,love em as much as clapton,

  • @722tea So..would it be ok if it was someone else's tragedy? Maybe mine or even yours?

    I know what you mean but you should've phrased that differently because if we had no tragedies it would all be much better :)

  • I always tear up when listening to this...I am probably wanting to play this at my wedding one day in the future for my wife.... some day :')

  • You certainly don't belong there Mamma

  • Too bad he's a racist.

    I could NEVER like him or his shit!!!

  • @valleyofme KInd of a sad thing to say really, it is written for his son that died very tragically.

  • @valleyofme fuck off you dumb nigger post your shit on some dumb ass video leave the people with real feeling alone. especially Clapton you couldn't hold a candle to his ass let along mean anything in this world hahaha!

  • @OriginalIndividuals "nigger" Bravo 

  • @OriginalIndividuals Haha!!! NIGGER???

    That was something diff. If I am a nigger, you really should go back to school.

    You clearly don't know how a nigger looks like :D

    Btw. You think every person who is not a racist is a nigger?

    O'boy. Your mom did not do a very good job...

  • @MegaGuitar78 just be there for her...x

  • 美しい曲です。

  • por algo dicen "clapton is god" definitivamente me quito el sombrero

    maestro!!!

  • Vile exploitative co-written rubbish!

  • One year and one day ago, my daughter passed away and I am here again to pay tribute to her and to say everybody how much I am missing her. From time to time I listen to this beautiful and so sad song and I feel very closed to her. She liked to listen to the same song when she was there at the hospital under chemotherapy treatment fighting for a second time against Leukaemia. It was in vain.

    Thank you Eric for this emotive song and sorry for your lose too.

  • Much better than the Madison square version

  • It's at 75 now, that's just disgusting, people need to read the lyrics, do some research, the guy lost his 4yr old son due to a window on the 53rd floor in a building in NY! Holy crap people, listen to the lyrics! Amazing song!!! it's one that i can just "float" in, don't know how to describe the feeling.

  • @MegaGuitar78

    Be sweet to her, thats all.

  • who was the 73 idiot who used the dislike???

  • This song is amazing! Love you Eric and so sorry for your loss.

  • who gave this thumbsdown?71 people with poor taste in music.

  • Dear Youtube: There is a dislike button. Please fix this immediately.

  • Go screw yourself RudeBhoy, if you cant have any sympathy in your heart, becuz that song brings tears too my eyes, everytime i hear it n i think about my adopted daughter who died when she was 3 1/2 yrs.old n all my family members.If that makes me a dick, becuz i cry for them, then i am a dick, but ur a damn loser.

  • E.C is a freakin genius

    this song is legendary <3

  • When Eric Clapton Signs... don't you just feel the pain and sorrow I myself could not stand to bear. R.I.P Connor Clapton

  • I LOVE Eric Clapton...he is just sooo talented!

  • i Always cry when i'm listening to this song

  • this is an awesome soulfull song..............feel the darkness of his heart for the Conor's Death I feel his break down heart!!!!!!!! Sorry for my english very bad........Clapton is God

  • Like on me

  • @MegaGuitar78 Just be there for her and pick all of the slack.

  • Probably one of the best examples of the potential behind humankind.

  • Having lost a precious baby boy to SIDS just a year ago, it is comforting to see such an icon give voice to those of us, relatively silenced. To be able to say the words, with undying love AND lose, but be strong enough to give his son his all...and the rest of us, the reminder to just breath until we meet again.

  • @LaurenMAustin2011 :( that made me very sad. I dedicate this kief I am about to smoke to your child.

  • @ThaBongKing ...what?! That's wrong and slightly disrespectful...

  • @BlackHawkGaming It's a toast to life and everything it has to offer.

  • @ThaBongKing ...true...true...smoke on, bruda =Q

  • @fukinblowme

    You are a fucking dispicable sorry excuse for a human being.I don't know how you trivialise the death of someone's kid. Crawl back into your hole you sorry piece of crap.

  • @MeLoveIsrael ...and how could you support the genocidal acts of Israel in the Gaza Strip ? Don't be a hypocrite. My internet criticism of one women's child doesn't compare to the murders and health related deaths of thousands of Palestinians now does it ? Pretending to be moral makes you deluded. You should crawl into a hole to be buried.
