Eric Clapton - Behind The Sun

[@scottiesmusic]

A beautiful song that most people don't even know exists....

[@aladdinsane7882]

Clapton does not get the recognition he deserves as a very, very soulful singer. One of the true greats in our lifetime.

[@nyrichiek]

For a man known for his career as a guitar wizard the man became a poet lyrically and proved to have one of the best voices in music.

[@londontown]

Clapton always has lyrics that can touch you no matter what mood you are in...

[@Teachering]

One of my favourite Eric Clapton albums, Behind The Sun. A heartfelt ending to a very good collection of songs performed by Clapton. I can understand how someone can love another human being as powerfully as this song communicates but, personally, I would not have the energy nor would I want to be burdened with this kind of painful emotion.

[@nyrichiek]

Obviously another Patti song.

[@williepright]

Just listening to this tune can break your heart.

[@SteveRayburn]

First time I heard this I was in the car on the freeway, heading home from work... reminded me someone I'd lost and loved very much. It was all I could do but to pull over immediately and just cry for a half an hour. It's both right and wrong that a song can do that to a person.

[@filmneye]

This song is about a heart that's been broken - Clapton's. His ex-wife ran off w/George Harrison.

I'm reading Phil Collins "not dead yet" bio, and he mentions that this song was recorded last minute in his own studio, and added late to the album.

[@donnietobasco9791]

Recorded in Phil Collin's bedroom/studio apparently....the one he wrote all his Face Value songs in. The light synth supporting the guitar and vocal was Collins. (REF: "Not Dead Yet" by Phil Collins - Chapter 12)

One day while walking in the sea, my talking dolphin spoke to me.

[@BENebuchadnezzar]

damn, this song is so simple and far too perfect lyrically

[@aseaofbluewaves2510]

Written when he & patti broke up-- he said he really let it all out here on this song

[@ruggerocarminati6245]

Ciao Eric dopo di te solo un oceano

[@tropicwave1]

Behind The Sun Eric Clapton My love has gone behind the sun; Since she left, the darkness has begun. The smile that used to shine on me Is nothing more than a memory.I see her face, I hear her voice. She made her move, I had no choice But walk and cry, wipe tears with my hand, The one that carries a wedding band. And the clouds hang low And the flowers that used to grow In my heart Are dying now, dying now. Dying now. Songwriters: ERIC PATRICK CLAPTON© Warner/Chappell Music, Inc.

[@robert86133]

miss you Roni

[@sicksycokitty]

@londontown i second that

[@2Bonita08]

...dying now...

[@johnpault1]

song was written at troubled time and end of his troubled marriage to pattie boyd trust eric to make something good out of something bad genius :))

[@modicastar]

I believe this song was written by him about him mom.

[@jameswyatt549]

It was actually written about the ending of his marriage with Patti.

He's the biggest example of the pot calling the kettle black

[@zoe-janesutherland4359]

Like you've never been a hypocrite in your life?

[@justdiane5]

@@zoe-janesutherland4359 no, I haven't, but Clapton is

[@filmneye]

@just diane Far from it. Read his lyrics below to She's Waiting and tell me he's "a hypocrite.": She's been waiting for another love, Someone that she can show into her heart. And when she finally finds a stronger love, Your whole world's gonna fall apart. She's waiting for another love. You've been abusing her for far too long; Think you're a king and she's your pawn. Get ready now, 'cause pretty soon She'll be gone and you'll be on your own.

[@justdiane5]

@@filmneye I read his book and I've been reading about him in Rolling Stone & other music stuff for many years. I'm not saying he didn't write some good songs. I like a few of his a lot, actually. It's just him personally. But thanks for the lyrics 🙂 ( I do believe he's talking about himself in those words)

This is not good at all

[@zoe-janesutherland4359]

You're right, good is an adjective that doesn't do this song justice. Excellent is a far better way to describe the quality of this song.

[@megadave1197]

@@zoe-janesutherland4359 Sounds like Phil Collins. If you like that pop rock fair play. I prefer Clapton playing the blues and the harder the better especially late 60s era.
