  • @FierceRodents That's OK I know that you didn't mean it,Vic.

  • My most adored song from Mr. Clapton and the way you played, amazing, I myself can play it for hours and dont get bored of it and is it just me or did you add a variation to the part at 1:03 where you jump to Bmin7? Loved, the clean sound of the guitar, so thumbs up for the best cover I heard on youtube so far.

  • @Skynsniper Thanks for the friendly encouraging words, I think the Bm7 is there in the original too, I looked up all the chords from the original recording.

  • Best Signe cover i ever heared. nice job man

  • Thanks capricious71, always welcome to my channel,enjoy yourself,Vic.

  • Really nice cover.

  • Bravo!! very nice

  • Thanks aronchas glad you enjoyed,greets Vic.

  • No, Thanks to you sir. I really enjoyed your playing so much, I remember the time EC unplugged came out, I always wanted to attempt playing this song. Finally Im doing it. Thanks

  • Glad I've put you on the right track for me Music is pure necesity can't live without it,it's like air I breath,greets Vic.

  • Great rendition but just a bit too fast. You play so well, slow it down just a little so we can savor the tune a little more. You obviously have been playing for a long time. Your hands move effortlessly on the frets. I feel like I had to "listen fast" to hear this one.

  • Thanks JTMan21, it's probably a little faster than EC,it's the way I feel it should be,but that's just me. yeah man a life in Music that's me,greets Vic.

  • victor plays Singe (i think wth an e)(E.Clapton) nice^^

  • Thanks Ibanez, I'll check it out, if you're right,probably you are,greets Vic.

  • Beautiful! +5 and a Subscribe click!

  • Thanks domiz,glad you enjoyed and thanks for the Sub,always welcome,Vic.

  • the lite touch is what makes emotional. Great Job!

  • Yes Kebo072,like gently touching your lady by candle-light,lol,greets Vic.

  • this is just great!

    keep on goin´ vic!

  • Thanks Dieser, always welcome to my music,drop a comment now and then appreciate it,Vic.

  • You put a lot of emotion and feeling to your guitar playing. Very well done sir!

  • Thanks kencerned, without emotion the Music sounds like an empty shell, what we want is a "live" one,greets Vic.

  • Very nicely played. Enjoyed it, thanks.

  • Thanks martinb25, much appreciated,greetings Vic.

  • flawless...i want to learn it! great play!

  • Thanks wasserziege, success with your study,greets Vic.

  • Adorei o som! Que pegada legal, imagino este som com percussao. Parabéns.

    Frank

  • Thanks Frank,yes Clapton also does it with percussion,greets Vic.

  • Do me a favour. Try to explain to all the other guys that play this song on youtube that the metronome and the pause after the introduction are not optionals! ;)

    Bye.

  • Thanks nerchiamaro, every one who knows this tune by close listening to the original should realize they're not optional, the pause enhances the theme that follows, so guys don't only follow Tabs done by someone else, but always use your EARS,greets Vic.

  • this is the best version I've seen on youtube

  • Thanks Jas123.. always welcome,Vic.

  • this is simply amazing.

  • Thanks Warrock014, you're always welcome,greets Vic.

  • WOW! As good as Clapton, no mistake at all. Now, I will learn it from your video. Thanks for posting.

  • Thanks tenyears, as a professional guitarist I can't allow to make mistakes, I'm always very critical about my playing,greetings Vic.

  • Muy buena versión, exelente el efecto percusivo

  • Gracias isma.. encantado y saludos desde Hollanda,Vic.

  • and btw u rulezzz.. im still learning how to play guitar and for me thats looks like impossible to do :P

  • Akat, when you build a house you need cement and bricks without that it also looks impossible,first learn the basics,very important,Vic.

  • Thanks Oscar, I'll check yours out as soon as I got some time,greets Vic.

  • Wow...very cool..I did mine by ear too...but did'nt turnout as well as yours....ecelent...I booked it as a fav

  • Hi Miketrue333,thanks, well I've been finfer-styling for some time now and I listen very sharp to the bass-melody movement how they're interwoven,i think that's the main thing in this style, chord notes come in-between somewhere, Greets Vic.

  • so looking forward to going to see eric next year, nice playin

  • Hi d4n1989 Always a treat to hear Eric play,greets Vic.

  • annyone have an accurate tab for this song?? i want to learn it soooo bad

  • Sorry,did this all by ear,but maybe someone else? Greets Vic.

  • try ultimateguitar

  • This is why I love Clapton... this was a song from the album MTV Unplugged for his son. :)

  • Thanks dolbro, he's a fine guitarist,and I thought he composed :Tears in Heaven for his son who had fallen from a flat,Greets Vic.

  • aye, he did. most of this album is for his son. :)

  • Hi doolbro,well here I learnt something new again,thanks,Greets Vic.

  • you let the notes ring

  • Thanks Wave, wish I could let them ring to eternity,lol,greets Vic.

  • I play by ear and I learned this song in a couple weeks without tabs or anything... just got stuck in my head... sometimes I wish I didn't play by ear though... takes a long time to learn things right...

  • Well you can play by ear,if you got a good one the mean thing is keeping a good form and flow and this takes time to develop, greets Vic.

  • that's fantastic.^^b

  • And you are so hansome

  • Thanks redfeli for both remarks, for an old guy I'm looking well preserved,I take care of myself and do things I enjoy,greets Vic.

  • good tempo, you play very clean and with grace, very well done, I found this song kind of hard to learn. The tempo throws me off.

  • Thanks Kawirules, it's a matter of persistence,starting of slow and building tempo slowly till you're there,of course you have to have patience,that's the way guitar playing works,Greets Vic.

  • Man, you OWN!!

  • Thanks soni2644, I own a sweet guitar named Takamine and I'm in love with her,LOL,greets Vic.

  • Your cover of this is my favorite on youtube. I just started playing a couple of weeks and seeing your joy in playing is an inspiration for me. Thanks for sharing your talent with us!

  • Thanks drmilhouse, you're welcome,another Classic from E.C. coming up in a while,you might super enjoy that one,that will be my own arrangement,greets Vic.

  • that was one of the best versions of this song i have heard, its very clean and soothing and beautiful..nice work

  • Thank you megadeth,glad you appreciate my version and also thanks for subscription,greetings Vic.

  • This is beautiful... I haven't learn how to play this song, it's still hard for me

  • Thanks ipodkine, it takes quite some practice,take your time and practice every day,greets Vic.

    walter

  • Dank je Walter, ik kreeg onlangs van iemand te horen dat hij mijn versie goed maat te clean vond,you can't please everybody en smaken verschillen,ik hou van duidelijk clean gitaarspel,groetjes Vic.

  • Hey victor,

    Ik zag in je profiel dat je nederlander bent :) Luister graag naar je nummers op youtube, ik speel zelf nog niet zo lang gitaar , zonder noten te lezen ben ik gewoon gaan leren/spelen via internet, more then words, streets of london, dust in the wind, tears in heaven ben ik gister mee begonnen lukt aardig alleen veeeel veeel oefenen :)

    Are you givin gitar lessons by any chance?? haha

    MVG

    Vincent!!

  • Hi Vincent, ja ik ben ook Nederlander, ja man ik wou dat toen ik begon zo'n rijkdom aan informatie gratis voorradig was,dat was toen alles op het gehoor uitzoeken( geen Tabs)maar daardoor heb ik goede oren voor muziek ontwikkeld door al het luisteren. Ik geef les en ben nu een systeem aan het opzetten waarbij ik om de week les geef en leerlingen voorzie van videomateriaal die langzaam voorgespeeld wordt,groetjes Vic.

  • Hi victor,

    bedankt voor je snelle reply!!

    Dat lesmateriaal lijkt me super!!! ik ben er voor in. Ik hoop van je te horen als er lessen beschikbaar zijn.

    Groeten Vincent..

  • superb!

  • Thank you ,my pleasure,greets Vic.

  • Hola Vic: I was just searching the Tube for a song entitled; Sign, Seal, Delivered, when I came across this song, I truly enjoyed it, it's always a pleasure to hear you play. Peace be with you.

    Hen

  • Thanks Hen,this is my older work but indeed a nice tune from Clapton,glad you enjoyed,greets Amigo, Victor.

  • hey jazzguts!!

    some nice fingerwork :)

    working on the piece myself ...

    it's hard but we'll get there :p we= me and my guitar!!

    nice playing!!

    greetz from pieter from antwerp belgium

  • hi pieter, who says playing guitar would be easy,you got to work hard at it every day, but then you're guitar and you will start to become friends for life,greets and success Victor.

  • superb!

  • Thanks icps86, glad you liked it,Vic.

  • one day i will play this song like you

    I don't know when, and I don't know how, but I will ;)

    you are amazing!!!

  • Anagiollo,you're determined to do so,so you're half way there already,the willpower of a person can be very strong,all the best,Vic.

  • Thanks, I always practiced chords(especially bar chords) in an arpeggio like way, forcing myself that every note is sounding well,I hear many players strumming chords and some notes don't ring out,play chords in a finger style arpeggio way and don't fool yourself,greets Vic.(it has to sound clean).

  • Beautiful! You play it sooo smoothly. Love love love it!

  • Thank you,the sound I hear in my head and it's just that I try to get it out as good as possible,greets Vic.

  • First of all: well done! Very clear sound! It's perfect! but I think you played this song a lil bit too perfect - imo it could sound a lil bit more "dirty" ;) nonetheless great perfomance! Keep on recording! 5 Stars!!

  • Grrrrrrrrrreat job!

    Really enjoyed it!!

  • Thank you thaiv81,greets Vic.

  • you made that look so easy - almost like a top quality instruction dvd but without the instruction.  Your playing is so clear and precise it was a joy to listen to. Thank you

  • Thank you,strange some days ago some friends said Vic you've gotta make an instruction Vid on some finger style arrangements,sometimes I think there's soo much of that Stuff around,just enjoy playing,I did make 2 instruction Vids on Jazz though,here on the Tube,greets Vic.

  • Way so classical.

    Pretty Good Performance, you make this song feel even more relaxed.
