That’s heartbreaking! I hope you’re past the worst of the grief.

The song was on the sound track of the movie "Rush", but it is about the death of his 4 year old son who tragically fell from the window of a New York high rise.

Its a tearing song..its about his son who passed away😢😢😢

It is a fretless base. It has a really unique sound but there are no Fritz so you can slide and bend the sound more You can hear it in a lot of songs but another good one is New York Minute by Don Henley of the Eagles. It's a really cool sound

I'm sure a lot of people are going to say this. Eric wrote this song for his little boy who passed away. He fell out of a 2 story window.

I think it was a lot higher than 2 stories.😢

He fell from a window in a New York high rise, reportedly from the 53rd floor.

Some say 49 some say 53, either way it was not 2 stories
@MissJojo7682Ай бұрын
@AmyWarriorPrincess Their apartment was on the 53rd floor. The story is on Eric's website. If you Google the words "Eric Clapton's son Conor", his website should be the first site that shows up in the Google search.

I'll never forget hearing about this on the news. My son was four also. I could not imagine the pain these parents went through. I can't hear this song without crying.

I played this at my son’s funeral. He died in a house fire when he was 3.

@@jessisanchez8150 I read he landed on the roof of a nearby ten story building. I actually found that comforting, because he wasn’t gawked at by people on the street and those people weren’t traumatized by seeing his body. Such a gut wrenching tragedy.

🌸 the video is really confusing sometimes because it shows bits to a movie I guess they must have used this song in that movie but it's not really about that. Eric Clapton's son at age 4 passed away and this is what the song is about
@terri2494Ай бұрын
He was already contracted to write a song for the movie when Connor died. He eventually came up with this song, with the aid of a friend who helped him finish it. I really wish reactors would not use this particular video, but how are they to know?
@hopeklemann1Ай бұрын
@terri2494 yeah I totally understand about the reactor thing and I get it now that you've informed me about being contracted for the movie.... but every time I watch that particular video it kind of is weird you know it doesn't in my personal opinion and my personal heart give Connor that singular voice you know that I'm sure Clapton wanted. but appreciate you letting me know that. thank you so much

Connor's mother tells the story which can be found on KZbin. From my understanding Eric was on his way up to their apartment to pick up Connor when the accident happened. He had taken him to the circus the day before. He hadn't been consistent or active in his life and had just embraced being a father. Just heartbreaking.
