I'm going to be honest, both this and the piano part are great, but it would be better as 2 separate songs. Just because it sounds like it should be, great song anyway!
The piano exit's all well and good, but in the context of a blues/hard rock song, it doesn't really make sense. They should be separate in my opinion, as they're all great, but the combination is a bit random.
I never play the whole thing so this is the song for me, I love it, great song, but the piano part is like a whole different thing glued together for no reason, it doesn't feel like the same song at all. it should be a separate song.
Pelger according to one of the participants of the session, that is a correct assessment. Same goes for the Stones’ Can’t You Hear Me Knocking coda. No, thanks.
It is a different song, it was part of a solo album The Domino's drummer Jim Gordon was working on. He used to sneak into the studio after hours to work on it. Clapton thought this song needed a good ending, and when he caught Gordon sneaking in one night and heard Godon's piano piece, instead of punishing him for using the studio after hours without paying, he asked for the song, because he loved it. I personally love the piano piece too, but you don't have to, just sayin : )
@@mohamedamru Come to find out it wasn't Jim's piece at all, but it was written by Rita Coolidge and her sister. Jim basically nicked it from his then girlfriend and took credit. Bobby Whitlock didn't want the coda on the song at all, but Jim forced it apparently. It starts out with just Jim playing the piano and then the guys overdubbed on top of it. Bobby comes in with a second piano overdub to fill out Jim's rather weak playing (which producer Tom Dowd wanted). Duane overdubbed his slide part last.
What will you do when you get lonely? No one waiting by your side You've been running, hiding much too long You know it's just your foolish pride Layla, you got me on my knees Layla, begging, darling, please Layla, darling, won't you ease my worried mind? I tried to give you consolation When your old man let you down Like a fool I fell in love with you You turned my whole world upside down Layla, you got me on my knees Layla, I'm begging, darling, please Layla, darling, won't you ease my worried mind? Make the best of the situation Before I finally go insane Please don't say we'll never find a way Or tell me all my love's in vain Layla, you got me on my knees Layla, I am begging, darling, please Layla, darling, won't you ease my worried mind?
The short version as I remember it, and the best thing is, it was a favourite of mine in my youth! Listening to it now is like going back in time, and reliving that wonderful time! If only I knew then what I know now.
The piano part is my favorite but I like this version whenever I’m trying to run outside and just do anything physical, the piano part is my favorite while driving and walking around
It's Nostalgic And Nice Tune 😎 I Like It 😎 In Japan, In 2009 This Number Was Used By Mitsubishi Motors' CM(Commercial Message )🙆 Thanks To Upload 😀 Thank You So Much 🙇
I remember bringing this home when it was a hit second time around took it took it to a family party cos i loved it to death still do my cousin said i remember this in the early 70s i was mortified cos i was 15 i thought it was brand new well never mind shows how much of a classic it is endurable.
The short is a disgrace to a masterpiece. The intersection in the middle is a emotional rollercoaster , being in love with the wife of your best friend.
i think its more consistant than the 7 minutes version. The blend to the piano is unsatisyfing for me. Powerless. Short version outro could be more epic but better than the romantic piano.
@@Jipwell Nah I don't think that on its own the piano is as consistent as a song on its own than the first bit. More as a sort of background, like in the movie Goodfellas, which makes a beautiful effect. In itself I think it's really nice, the piano, and I do believe it is meant to give that "romantic", or as I like to think, sort of weeping effect after the hectic first part Thematically as well
Interesting that ERIC CLAPTON had a hit with this song twice. Once as a rock song with DEREK AND THE DOMINOES and second as an acoustic song as a solo artist.
The first half is basically the actual rock song, the second is basically a piano exit that came out of nowhere, I do like both halves of these songs, however, I think there should be the short version as "Layla (Pt. 1)", and the piano exit as "Layla (Pt. 2)". This is also similar to the Beatles song, "Hey Jude", with the first half just a song, then the second half becomes the repetitive half of the song, anyways both are great songs but Layla's piano exit is good too, just, I don't know why this came in, like the second half being the odd man out of a rock song, this is the case with "Layla". The second half is just a piano exit that was too random and not very necessary, especially in a rock song.
This shit is nowhere to be found ANYWHERE! I want to put this in a party playlist without the long and rather not party-esque second half but i can't find it for the love of myself.
I think there is a mistake in the Introduction Section of this song post. It says "Music in this video" ....... Song "Layla", Artist "Derek & The Dominos", Writers "J.D. Souther, Glenn Frey, Don Henley". The writers of the song Layla are Eric Clapton and Jim Gordon, clearly. Souther, Frey, and Henley comprise the Eagles, not Derek & The Dominos, unless Souther, Frey, and Henley had some supporting role with the album "Complete Clapton". Clearly they had nothing to do with the actual writing of the song "Layla" in 1970.
Obviously this is the favourite part of the song to me too... but still pretty atrocious with the "3 min radio" fadeout. :D The instrumental part as a standalone song? Nah, it would just lack the emotional load in the beginning (when the piano starts).
I'm sorry, but the without piano coda the song lacks so much emotion. Yes the beginning part is great but the piano coda always brings chills and even tears to me and the ending chord of this doesn't make much sense without the coda.
I'm going to be honest, both this and the piano part are great, but it would be better as 2 separate songs. Just because it sounds like it should be, great song anyway!
Wow-& I Love When It Switches Over To Piano. That's One Of My Favorite Parts Of "LAYLA" - BESIDES 🎸Eric Clapton On 🎸-Of Course. 💙⚘💙
02:27 Clapton-gasm alert wop wop wop wop wop
Thnx for lyrics
This is cool and it was two separate songs with the piano part recorded a bit later and added on.
Wasn't the second part of the song used in Goodfellas?
The best three minutes of rock music ever recorded.
Chris Harrison hell yeah
Of course!

Not if you were around at the time ........the floating turd that just won't flush away......... ever.
Absolutely debatable
I like this short version better than a 7 minutes of the song.
Agreed.
Me to
The piano exit's all well and good, but in the context of a blues/hard rock song, it doesn't really make sense. They should be separate in my opinion, as they're all great, but the combination is a bit random.
agreed. same reason that I like the short version of Hey Jude. The intros of these two songs are just so long that it doesn't make any sense.
No

You know it's just your foolish pride

WTF is WRONG with you? SMH
Thank you for posting lyrics!!!
The finest car tune of all time.
One of those songs I've heard my entire life, but never knew the name of.
🤣 I think it's called "Dave"
@@toysaga1182 LMFAOOO
2:19 is where my favorite part begins. That rift in the background is crazy
Was a 1970 album track released as short single in 1975
Dwayne Allman's magic slides.
It's just rock and roll at one of it's finest
The short version is the real thing. Not more is needed.
Help im playing this over and over
Nacho Gamer You don't need help, you need praise.
Same here man it's the music itself that gets me
Personally my favourite classic hit of all time nothing compares to this in my eyes. ❤️
LAAAAYYYYYLLLAAAAA🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥

yo mama😀
That riff is a f---ing wasp sting!
Paul Casey No, because wasps are a hinderance, complete opposite of Clapton.
The piano part is my favorite but I like this version whenever I’m trying to run outside and just do anything physical, the piano part is my favorite while driving and walking around
A killer riff.😁
This is so energetic.. one of my goosebump songs... drums, guitar, lyrics... it's a masterpiece!
I love Layla! 😍🥰
I like this much more than full version. Piano part is beautiful, but it belongs with another song, in my opinion.
Best riff ever.
Is this the greatest opening riff ever recorded?
Whatever your opinion, it’s got to be in the conversation.
Probably ?
Song for Miss Patty Boyd. 🎸
Im glad this exists in two versions 😊
While listening to this song, Tony Soprano drives over his golf bag in my mind.

Thank you so much for uploading this! Been looking for it forever!
Best version!
I never knew there was a short version till now 😂❤
And the song cuts off...😢
Damn I love this song
I like this song by Derek and the dominos I like the short version and the long version
It's a electric classic
The short is a disgrace to a masterpiece. The intersection in the middle is a emotional rollercoaster , being in love with the wife of your best friend.
this is a great song wow !
i think its more consistant than the 7 minutes version. The blend to the piano is unsatisyfing for me. Powerless. Short version outro could be more epic but better than the romantic piano.
Yup. 4 minutes of weird piano/guitar mix.
The piano version should be a different song. It would be much better as a double A-side to Layla.

Thematically as well
This song was made for Top Gear / Grand Tour goodbye.

Patti Boyd, George Harrison's wife at the time inspired some of rock's most famous love songs -
Thanks for this
Love it
Is the shortened version on Spotify and if not can you put it on Spotify
If this video gets a million views in a week it's probably my fault
Can't stop listening to this
MOOD RIGHY NOW it’s embarrassing how many times I’ve listened to this
What video was it
@@imsonicnoob2112 ...This video.
Epic!
THIS and this only
Henry Hill referred to the aftermath of the Lufthansa Heist while this plays
Tony Soprano heard this before Carmela unleashed her evil side
My favorite part 1:46
LAYYYYYLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
25 weeks pregnant and I play this song to my baby girl all the time to feel her kicks.
The best from Clapton
I watched gardien of the galaxie a'd this name make me cry 😢
どんな料理か楽しみだ。
Duane Allman the best Guitarist
Interesting that ERIC CLAPTON had a hit with this song twice.
Once as a rock song with DEREK AND THE DOMINOES
and second as an acoustic song as a solo artist.
thanks mate!
Niceeeeee.
Makes me feel like buying a vauxhall cavalier
from experience u can either play it so well or fuck it up so bad and there is no fine line

From old Opel commercial 😅
The piano part to this song is like the end part of mr blue sky. Everyone absolutely adores the main part but thinks the 2nd part is pointless 😂
Really? Both are the cherry on the top of these two songs, for me, and they wouldn't be as memorable without them... but, for each their own.

I like this short version better than a 7 minutes of PLEASE STOP PLAYING PLEASE STOP PLEASR
Yalnız kaldığında ne yapacaksın?1
Kimse seni beklemiyorken?
Uzun zamandır kaçıp saklanıyorsun.
Biliyorsun bu senin aptal gururun.
[Koro] :
Layla, sana diz çöküyorum,
Layla, yalvarıyorum, sevgilim lütfen.
Layla, sevgilim endişelerimi hafifletemez misin?
Seni teselli etmeye çalıştım,
O eski adam, seni üzdüğünde,
Aptal gibi, sana aşık oldum.
Tüm dünyamı alt üst ettin.
[Koro]
Doğru kararı verelim,
Ben çıldırmadan önce,
Lütfen hiç bir yol bulamayacağımızı söyleme.
Ve tüm aşkımın faydasız olduğunu söyleme.
This song makes me want to go on a road trip with my two best friends
I only like this part of the song the piano part does nothing for me honestly and plus it reminds me of Good Fellas a movie that I don’t like lol
I don't understand why Eric Clapton added the long piano (kinda boring but still beautiful if it's just a piano) here it's already good.
Layla for people with the attention span of a gnat (me)
Yeah, back at that time I had another username, and apparently somebody got into my UA-cam.
Obviously this is the favourite part of the song to me too... but still pretty atrocious with the "3 min radio" fadeout. :D
The instrumental part as a standalone song? Nah, it would just lack the emotional load in the beginning (when the piano starts).
My name :) shoutout to all laylas
Why can't i buy this on iTunes!?
You can´t put a price on this masterpiece!
I think this and the outro should be separated not for the reason you think
It’s because so we get 1 extra good song from Derek and dominos
short version rocks! any chance of uploading a better quality sounding file? it sounds mid-fi
Songs that sounds similar. The big guns by heatwave and 50//50 vantage

I feel like the piano part should be separate
I actually like the beginning verses and the piano part. I don't like the guitar solo. It's a bit noisy for me.
bite your tongue ! more laylow is more better than less worse than less laylow
Remember Duane ALLMAN ❤️🍑🎶
*you're
You're the same damned person. I checked.
This isn't the correct edit, the correct one had a much shorter intro and the song ran 2:40
I'm sorry, but the without piano coda the song lacks so much emotion. Yes the beginning part is great but the piano coda always brings chills and even tears to me and the ending chord of this doesn't make much sense without the coda.
debatable
