the eighties are alive and well,always has been,so many memories.born in '78 here,but vividly remember tons of it,especially the music and movies!!! live it to the fullest
@TheJSKUR Same here. Evan though I watch the movie in 86- ' when it first came out, it wasn't till earlier this year that I paid attention to the song.
Don't forget Robbie Robertson and Eric Clapton collaborated to make this song for Scorcese's The Color of Money. They're both fantastic and deserve equal merit.
Makes me want to hit the road in the mid west and see open land all around me with mountains in the backdrop. Something about this song really makes me feel free.
I'm so glad Clapton survived his life up to this day. This man has been through more than any regular man could take - and look at him! He gives me hope and confidence. Clapton is god.

Love the bass and of course EC's guitar work as usual. People dog his music in the 80's but he still had as many great songs in this era as he did years before.
Now I'm not much of a Clapton fan myself but I've listened to enough of his music to know that if you can't find a lot of songs much better than this one then you just aren't trying hard enough.
i grew up with this movis and this song and it is one of the best Clapton tunes ever! to me, this song defines being a real man....we all have it, but its in the way that you use it...some have and some don't....make a choice...
I Always play pool to this song i love this song thanks for sharing with all of us it is one of the greatest songs ive ever heard!!!!! I Love EC So Awesome Guitar player!!!
Wasn't there a video of this song that included the movie scenes? An awesome song and movie!! I am SURE there was a video though!!! If not here, where can we find it???
Being a drummer myself, I can tell you that this song has such a killer groove. Not only that, but yo ucan either play it straight and simple, or you can really add a lot to it if you want. Such a great song, and a great sound!
Just to add something, last summer my cousin & I went to a pub in Woodlawn (in the Bronx). When I played this there, it seemed like everyone's face lit up. The Irish bartenders were singing along with it & just seemed to put everyone in a happy mood. THAT'S the power of a great song! :)
Reckon he reached his peak to be honest, around this time, "Modern man" is also from around that period," "pretending" guy hit his peak. Then it all went bad ,reall bad.
epic song
