HELLO SHERYL, I'M A UNSIGNED NOBODY, I WROTE THIS SONG CALLED "SIMON SAYS" , I UPLOADED IT ON MY YOUTUBE SITE GOT TONS OF HITS THEN MY SISTER TOLD ME TOO LISTEN TO THIS SONG OF YOURS. YOU MUST OF BEEN IN MY SUB-CONSIOUS MIND WHEN I WROTE IT. I'VE NEVER PUT ANY EFFORT INTO COVER SONGS , I AM ONLY A SINGER/SONG WRITER AND RESPECT COPY RIGHTS OF ANY ARTIST, WITH THAT BEING SAID I GUESS I'LL JUST PLAY IT FOR YOU SINCE I CAN'T PLAY IT FOR ANYONE ELSE. I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED BUT HEY I'LL KEEP WRITING
This is from Eric Clapton's DvD @ Madison Square Garden 1999. It was his first concert for Crossroads (I think). I have the dvd but not with me right now, I wish someone upload it with high quality, this song amazing.
from which concert is this songs and couple others, where Est, Clapton and Crowe are together on the stage?. Pleas answer me? Best regrades from Poland :)
I bought the DVD on the advice from another Eric clapton fan. I actually fought tears when I heard this. Absolutely incredible song. Eric is brilliant with a glass slide!
I hate that they omitted many of the songs he played, like that with Sheryl on accordion that you can find here on youtube, but also pilgrim, Circus, My fathers eyes, If it makes you happy and a couple of other songs that didn't appear on the dvd. By they way the song with Sheryl on the accordion is on this playlist, on the right.
Love this version ! Eric on Slide guitar, the drumming and vocals make this a fantastic version. Don't judge it by the youtube Video, go buy the dvd and listen to it on a good quality stereo and you will fall in love with it.
@kp61hs10 What dvd is it off of? I remember seeing this back on TV and really loved what EC did on the slide, but I was never able to find it till today...
all due respect to Clapton, but her lyrics and vocals have made this song as good as it can be. No amount of great slide guitar can make it any more poignant.
@blisstobliss I'm not saying Eric Clapton is bad or anything, but I don't think he brought this allready great song to a whole new level. He's good, but didn't really add much in my humble opinion. But hey, thats just me.
Yes....and don't call me Sherly.... Thank you for posting this video. This is amazing...I saw the original telecast back when...terrific...ty Eric...ty Sheryl...ty Poster

Eric kills on slide here. He's quite good at that but no one ever gives him props for that.

If you want an example of someone elevating a piece of music, this is it. Eric Clapton takes this song to a whole other level. I love this video!

@blisstobliss No offense to Clapton but there was not place this song could go that Sheryl had not already taken it to.

@MrPostm All I can say is that I never really thought much of this song, until I heard this version
with Eric Clapton. Also, look closely at the end of the video, you will see Miss Sheryl pat her
heart like this performance, of this particular song, at this moment with Mr. Clapton was really something
amazing and uniquie. Of course only Sheryl knows. ; )
