The Greatest Guitarist of all time. Mr. Eric Clapton. Thank You....

The only artist out here that can make a guitar talk and cry at the same time.

One of the most underated songs EVER.

I have been an Eric fan for many years. He is my #1 musician. There may me many faster and even better guitar players but no other can pick the perfect notes like him. There is such a sweetness in his lead, always blending majors with relative minor scales. He is simply like no other.

I lost my husband just a year ago and this song resonates in my heart. Every person's pain is their own and this song makes the loneliness just a bit more bearable.

This is one of the most amazing songs ever written...

An absolute Masterpiece Songs like this dont just come from thought. It comes from experiencing the pain he is expressing and he has had lots of it. Great song

I was at this concert and I remember this song brought tears to my eyes. So cool to have been there and that it was a release. Love ya Eric!

This song captures your soul instantly!!! So moving beyond words, Extraordinary!!!!!

I have seen you, Eric, three wonderful, memorable times. Once you were terribly sick, but still performed amazingly. That was back in the early '80's in Montana. You are like none other, and this song is one of my favorites. Thanks for the memories and I truly hope you are blessed with many more talented years and that you continue to share your gift with us.

This is a sad song, Eric's saddest and one of the saddest of all time, yes...

it rips me up every time I hear it. He did his whole Pilgrim album a decade or so back... the tour was Reptile..the man was DOWN. He had a fairly big orchestra in the middle floor (circle stage, unusual..) LIKE IT SOUNDS HERE..DEVASTATINGLY BEAUTIFUL. Now that's when Chicago fans had the same respect that Eric is most charmed by in Japan.

Amazing emotion conveyed in his playing style... Gary Moore was good at that as well.. But clapton is the master for sure..

This song gets me every time... It's just damn beautiful. The 16 people that hit the dislike button must be deaf or something

Damn this song is too sad! My hearts go out to anyone who's lost a child, I can't imagine. Thank you E. Clapton, putting yourself out there, you've touched and help so many who have lost their everything.

Eric, it is impossible for me to hold it together EVERY time I hear this song. From that very first cord, the tears begin, how in God's name can you perform it? Im in pain and I dont even know why. God bless you man.

Beautiful. Thank you for the release. Eric your music all means so much to me and thousands of others.

It`s three miles to the river That would carry me away, And two miles to the dusty street That I saw you on today It`s four miles to my lonely room Where I will hide my face, And about half a mile to the downtown bar That I ran from in disgrace Lord, how long have I got to keep on running, Seven hours, seven days or seven years? All I know is, since you`ve been gone I feel like I`m drowning in a river, Drowning in a river of tears Drowning in a river Feel like I`m drowning, Drowning in a river In three more days, I`ll leave this town And disappear without a trace A year from now, maybe settle down Where no one knows my face I wish that I could hold you One more time to ease the pain But my time`s run out and I got to go Got to run away again Still I catch myself thinking, One day I`ll find my way back here You`ll save me from drowning, Drowning in a river, Drowning in a river of tears Drowning in a river Feels like I`m drowning, Drowning in the river. Lord, how long must this go on?

beautiful song is all i can say all of erics claptons songs are a piece of art so much talent love him he is awesome

the most beautiful song I have ever heard, Eric is number 1 for me. love that man and the music he has brought to my life

I've seen alot of performers in my life, but EC has got it all. What a wonderful, talented genius and gentleman you are sir!

Between that sound from the guitar along with the pain in his incredible voice, who can deny the man knows what pain from loss can do. The solos alone are wrenching. Man can play blues for me anytime.

I never witnessed Clapton perform this live...every time I hear him, I am "drowning in a river of tears "...

Beautiful and so, so sad.... evocative of every loved one lost and desperately missed...

Less than a million views? Cuz, I know I’ve viewed this masterpiece at least a billion times 🤔❤️❤️❤️

So very, very beautiful.

I love his way to play that Strat.... I’ll cry because it’s so beautiful....

Eric Clapton has been my favorite guitar player for 40 years and he hs had so many amazing performances, there is no way to pick out which is better than another.....but this one tears at my heart in such a way that I keep watching it marveling that even in his simplicity he can bring me to pure love

E' bellissima !!!! Eric ha scritto questa canzone dopo avere superato tutti i suoi dolori.

Really made me cry. This song is epic

Beautiful. Always love this song ...Thanks

My favorite Clapton song. He's got lots other great songs but this 1 is just extra special to me.

How can you love somebody you never even met more than all the people you've known all your life? I do. I love him more than my own life.

Such A Beautiful song... The pain Eric has gone through makes 🎵 we all can relate too..

The best musician ever. He sings with his heart, soul and his feelings. Sometimes, especially in 'Tears in heaven', I can feel his pain. I don't know many musicians who can do that. Thank you Eric Clapton!

Thank you for this lovely cathartic release. Tonight, many grateful people are hearing this.

I have a lot of Eric Clapton music in my iPod and iPhone. I have really been a fan since the days of Cream and Derek and the Dominos. This coming Wednesday I get to attend my first Eric Clapton concert. This concert has been on (bucket) list of things I want to accomplish in my life time. Up until this coming week, I have only seen him in You Tube videos and DVD concerts. So I will be in the crowd at OKC's Chesapeake Energy Arena enjoying and soaking in the beautiful music of Eric Clapton.

Wow very nice . . Love it 💞

Not sad...so necessary for Clapton. From one parent to another.

Just marvellous! Great song, Great touch on guitar.....thankyou Eric

In music and songs this man is a legendary Great man . Absolutely one of the greatest .

ベストテイクですね。アドリブとは思えない泣きのギター最高です。レコードもこんな感じでできないのかな？

Jesus, that's beautiful.

So incredibly gifted! Thank you Eric! You make me happy everytime I hear this !

from his heart I wish that I could hold you...one more time to ease the pain from the heart he has been there ..this song was written after he lost his little boy so its heartfelt

i started listening to this man back in high school....42 years later still am.....EC is the most amazing musician of our time ( at least for me)

What are you doing to us, Eric?!!! It's so incomprehensible and so magnificent! You turn our souls inside out, make us cry, and we love you for it!

From the first note I instantly started crying. In loving memory of my beautiful granddaughter. I love and miss you so much ❤💔

I'm not sure how he does it, but that stratocaster actually cries.

simply the best live ever.

omg at his solo

Wow, wunderschönes Livekonzert! Der Song ist sehr schön!

LOVE LOVE LOVE EC! Thank you for sharing your music with us.

Clapton is a ICON!

Absolutely. No contest!!

Another Man with A GOLDEN VOICE!!! As Leonard Cohen so has Eric Clapton gotten better and more relevant to the world

Oh Mr Clapton I thought nothing could beat Moon River but I must say that a River of tears is oh...... right up there both give the shivers touches my soul. Just wanted to say thank you for sharing your music and your passion. I'm a recovering person when I hear your music I'm working my program. Now not all your music hehe. Prayers 🙏 to you and yours.

One word.. Beatifull.... and Clapton is guitar God... his solos are so nice, so beautifull, but also professional... I love him :)

Legend.

The man can express like no other.

R.I.P. Conor ... Dear Eric, you are a big man, you are my hero. I feel your loss, you stayed so strong and grieft so bravely. God bless you.

I HAVEN WORD FOR CAN TELL MY FEELING !!!!!!!!!!!

Eric is a very special musician,you can feel the power and meaning in all of his music,no matter who he plays with,Mr. Slow hand is just great,we must all enjoy his music as well as many musician of his time,for us it's later than we think Eric,and his friends ,music is going to be very very hard to replace so let's all enjoy what we grew up with in the music he supplied us with,one of the greatest guitar players of all time ,Thank you Mr.Clapton

Eric Clapton will go down as one of the Top 10 in music of our age hundred years from now! He clearly re-invents even his own stuff! Amazing!

love this song it is one of my favorites. the solo is just music to my ears, love it

A unique ability to make that guitar sing and cry...

Awesome; the guitar weeps feeling the hearts weeping pains. What a performance...!

Muito Muito bom!!! Thanks for live, Sir Clapton.

One of my favorite songs in concert..I remember when I first saw him perform this song.. He was really getting into the vocals; Joe Cocker type of hand movements..He was definitely feeling it that night..This is a fine version..

As long as I’ve been a fan and never heard this… WOW!!!!!! Eric started my journey with guitar. “Like a fool I fell in love with you, you turned my whole world upside down”! Edit… I can’t get enough of this song now!

Un des meilleurs lives de Clapton et un de ses plus beau solo !

@marinepurple I salute you for you and your brothers in arms for doing the dirty job overseas And the falling and lost Brothers in Gods hands cheers Keep upp the good work

i love eric clapton!

While it's about a relationship ending...the line..."since you've been gone, I feel like I'm drowning in a river of tears" hit me real hard as I listened to this in the days after my father died...Thanks EC, for your music...it's healing for me.

amazing !

My favorite Clapton song!!!

I love how he puts his heart and soul into his strumming then wen he sings he puts in no effort but it still sounds damn good!!

This is sad on one side and the other side so so beautifull.

Fluid emotion :)

5:50- Wow!

Idk how he holds back from crying singing this song thinking about his son.

😢GO AHEAD ON ERIC YOU AND THAT GUITAR ❤

I love him...

Most soulful guitar playing ever.

Love her and that jewel of a voice.❤

A wonderful song. My favorite part is when the bass player, Nathan East, who plays with Clapton all the time as well as everyone else, applauds along with the audience.

I think the lyrics of this song are beautiful. The important thing is to know that the time has come. and know how to go..... Go ahead and wish me well I'll cry a wish well I will fly before I fail I'll set sail and get away

Jesus, my heart aches, I know the pain.

this is one of my favorits

Eric is masterpiece of his own master,,,,brilliant EPIC

hell of a songwriter,no need to comment on his playing. He's simply the best!

Rock and Roll hall of fame says nothing. The playing says it all.

He's the consummate professional. Can learn a lot from Eric.

my opinion is the "One More Car" version is more powerful. Billy Preston on organ really stirred Clapton's juices that night. I was fortunate to be at Staples Center during the recording. It was such a great concert we were numb for hours after it was over. Even a dozen years later, it rings in my ears.

so much emotion into this song. such a beautiful ballad

Great performance, I also liked how Nathan East (who's one of the best bass players in the business) gave Eric respect at the end of the tune. Class act.

fantastic playing

Wow what a band!!What a song! 2018 Still listening!

This is such a beautiful song but I know the heartbreak he must have gone through with his son I lost my brother by someone not watching where they were driving I have the same feelings at time's this song came from his heart & soul thank you for the upload I have tickets to see him in March he did a gig in London a friend of mine was there said he put on a good show but was not the same Eric life is a bitch at times

Don't come any better then Eric Clayton,love him
