Amber, you have no idea how emotional this song is. This was a song written for Eric’s young son, Conor, who died tragically in a terrible fall when he was only 5 years old. Not easy to listen to. It was also used in the film Rush. That’s some footage from it in the video. The director at first did not want to use the song. Eric sent him a tape of the song with just his voice and his guitar, and the guy thought it was just too raw and heartbreaking to use because he knew instantly who the song was about, but Eric asked him to please use it.

Written about his 4 year old son, who fell out of a 53rd floor window that was left open. What makes it even more heart breaking is that Eric Clapton was a few blocks away on his way to pick up his son to go to the zoo. It amazes me that he could even write this let alone perform it. The pain, but endurance in this man must be mental.

I haven't even watched the video yet. But I guarantee Amber is going to cry. I remember the first time this song was played on the radio in New York City. This is where Eric's son tragically felt to his death at only 3 years old. All of us who were rock and roll fans were devastated. It is the first and only time in my entire life that I actually had to pull over and park my car because the song was making me cry so hard and I couldn't drive. Eric has since started a charitable organization it his son's name to try and find some good in this awful event. This is the most eloquent expression of heartbreak I have ever heard. So now I finished watching the video. Just as I predicted even without knowing the story behind the song Amber got the feeling and emotion that was put into it. Now, go watch it again listen to the lyrics and realize he's talking about his baby boy. You'll cry buckets this time.

January 2022, Mary would've turned 18. Losing a child is never easy but I knew she was going to pass. Losing a child tragically with no warning, I can't imagine. No matter how they pass, the pain and darkness is always there in the background. Such a beautiful song

At the time of the accident, some media speculated it was Clapton's apt, but that turned out to be incorrect. Conor & his mother, Lory del Santo, were staying in the apt. of her boyfriend, Silvio Sardi. Clapton was in a near-by hotel, getting ready to walk to the apt, to pick up Conor for lunch, when he got the call from Lory.

This song reminds me of my nephew, who we lost very. Very young. My heart will go out to Eric Clapton and his family for the loss of their son. No one should go through that pain.

Clapton sure can make that acoustic guitar cry some metaphorical tears....

I love this song. So sad that he lost his baby. I know what’s that’s like. The death of a child or grandchild is something you never get over…,.😢❤I know I’ll see my baby again and hold their hand. 💙🕊

I remember when this came out. Such a beautiful song. I'm not usually an emotional person, but when you know that this is a tribute to his young son who tragically passed away ... it's a really hard song to listen to without shedding a tear. After all these years, it still plucks at the heart strings.

I'm kind of glad that they didn't know what inspired this song because I felt like that would have torn them up, especially Amber. This song never fails to bring me to tears, especially as a parent.

Yes, like many others already mentioned, a song written about his little son that fell out of a hotel window and passed away. A beautiful, but, sad song. You both would have been crying if you knew the reason for the song before you heard it. Also, this song won Song of the Year and when he went to accept the award, in his speech he said that he was really expecting "Save the Best For Last" by Vanessa Williams to win the award. True.

Just a few months later when he and Stevie Ray Vaughan were in concert together Eric nearly was on the helicopter with Stevie Ray but did not go with him. Such a crazy horrible time. He was still grieving his son.

I’m actually very glad Amber (and Jay, but especially Amber) did not know the history behind this song. This reaction video was most likely filmed after the birth of their own son, and I don’t want to imagine the sorrow and anguish the knowledge would have caused them. When Amber cries, I cry 😭 She was tearing up just thinking it was a sweet, hopeful song. I can’t imagine her reaction knowing it was about the death of a young child. 💔

It's just a very emotional song. Anyone who has lost someone close to them can relate to this song. I lost my grandfather recently and I was really close to him, so when I heard it I thought of him 😔

Poor Amber, you seem to have gone through the wringer quite a few times recently, The Green Mile, Saving Private Ryan and now this song. I appreciate how you both allow your emotions to come through.

Such a sad, touching song. In 1991 Eric's 4 yr old son fell from a 53rd floor window, landing on a roof of a 4 story building.

Such an amazing song . I wish there were a way you could have known the story behind this one. Amber was feeling his heartache through the song even without knowing why he wrote this. Can't hear it without a few years every time knowing his loss 😞.

Please don't ever apologize for feeling your emotions, especially for what this sad and powerful song brings up. I cry every time I watch someone react to it. Thank you for having the courage to react to it.

Eric wrote this song after his young son tragically fell out of a NYC apartment window & died. Tough one to listen to. The clip on the video is from the movie Rush, which is about undercover drug cops who become too involved in drugs.

If you can stand listening to this song again after learning why this song was written then try his unplugged version from his MTV Unplugged concert which is actually full of great songs. Try Change The World by Clapton accompanied by Baby Face. Amazing song too.

I'm not a fan of Eric Clapton the person, and am a casual fan, at best, of his music, but this song causes me to tear up everytime. I cannot imagine, don't want to imagine, going through what he went through, and it's a beautiful song

I'm sure Eric would say this is his finest piece of music , it's about his Son through a tragic 😥 incident , its so sad yet hauntingly beautiful , think of EC writing those lyrics 💔

When I hear this song I not only think of Eric's son but more about my own son who died when he lacked 1 day from being 1 month old. He and his mom both died in a car accident when they were hit by a drunk driver. This song hits hard and I can understand what Eric went through.
