every time i want to reconnect with mother mary through music, i listen to this version. i feel it represents, more than any other song, the heart of her love for all of us on this planet.
sorry but theres something wrong. Clapton wrote this song when when he realised that he had a real big problem with his alcohlismn. he felt so helpless and weak so he wrote this song right in a hotelroom.
I may be wrong, but I am pretty sure this song was written for Richard Manuel, who died in 1986, or so I read. It may be incorrect though. Where did you hear it was about his alcohol issues?
Ah now i got it! He had written it when he saw that he had a big problem with alcoholismn, but he dedicated the song to Richard Manuel! So we both were right^^.
He's good. He got rid of the guitar lead and uses his singing to supplement that, which is bloody good. The bass backup his singing, what a clever lade. Good work mate.

Eric Clapton was the writer of this song, but not the singer of this version. He wrote the song in remembrance of one of his friends who passed away.
