Additionally, I also lost my young son in an automobile crash and I barely overcame it. I turned to Irish Whiskey as an escape. After many years and the help of God and AA, I was given another life. I received much solace from your heartfelt music. Thanks again.
His humility, given the endless adulation and deserved awards, is probably his best quality. His willingness to give to others less fortunate puts him on a higher level than many of his peers. Thank you Eric for your love of God and for your fellow man.
Ich genieße seine Musik, seitdem er sie öffentlich spielt. Zwei Jahre älter als er, habe ich sein Leben verfolgen können. Leider habe auch ich einen Sohn durch einen Autounfall verloren und kann spüren wie er gelitten hat. Eric ist ein Vorbild. Er hat vieles richtig gemacht und ich wünsche ihm noch viele Jahre mit seiner Musik. Mir natürlich auch.
Oh come on man, TRUE musicians are supposed to be livin' in squalor. It makes me sick to see this guy livin' the high life instead of grovelling around in back alleys, eatin' out of dumpsters and sharin' dirty needles with other broke musicians like he should be. The dudes a friggin sellout man.
Guitar playing aside, his voice is amazing, like on his Somewhere Over the Rainbow live takes in 2001, and his awesome "growls" in the mid-90s (It Hurts Me Too)
His comments and beliefs are only controversial if you don't agree with him. He deserves all he has gained in his life, he was a trailblazer and continues to make a lot of people happy with his music!
I SAW.. CLAPTAN IS A HUGE GENIOUS IN PLAY OF VIOLIN... CLAPTON IS A FLOWER IN SONG WRITER.. CLAPTON IS A BEAUTY IN SINGER LIKE A STARS... I SAW CLaPTON THIS PERFORMANCE YES MUCH HAPPY INDIA
If nothing else the guy is capable of overcoming almost anything! Also he is a true artist in the rock/ pop arena. He is staunchly anti immigration for England at least. As far as being racist I think you have to look at his entire life to make a judgement. I’m pretty sure he paid for a really nice grave marker for Howling Wolf who he greatly admired and worked with. Same for Jimi Hendrix minus the grave marker part.
A croire que les français ne le connaissent pas, ils préfèrent le rap ou le "bonne chansons française" insipide, mielleuse mais ou est passé le bon vieux Rock & Roll
No he worked dam hard for what he had plus deserved! He is still extremely active filling stadiums around the work! This Phenomenal man needs to keep what he earned end of!!Through many trails of awfulness.. plus many highs too.. He must at his age keep all he has! 💘💘
@@plane_guy6051Are you out of your mind? Where is that written I would like to see! What a lot of nonsense please stop! Now!!! Disrespectful to the Extreme! No‼️
You need to get your facts straight! The pic you have of Clapton is with Yvonne Elliman NOT Yvonne Kelly! In addition you have pics of a house in Venice California which he no longer owns as one or more of his other houses interiors!
He should cut out the politics. His anti Israel support has turned me from him . Followed him since 1964. He has now lost it as well as his mind. Mixing with the nutter Roger Walters has addled his brain.
He lost his relevancy once he became political. And his rehab mansion is paid for by the stars that donate their time at the Crossroads every year. He lost touch a long time ago. I still love his older music, but to me god is dead,
I'm quite sure that mansion in Antiqua is on a completely different property than the rehab centre in Antiqua. He has financially supported the centre as have all the performers at Crossroads. Personally, I think the house is excessive. I'm a fan of his music but I don't think anyone with a conscience should have multiple giant houses. That said, it's not fair to say the house was paid for by Crossroads funds. As for his relevancy, well he has generally stayed out of politics all his life. He has said a couple of things I don't agree with, but who agrees with everyone? More importantly, is it fair to say he "lost touch" and he is not relevant just because you don't agree with him politically? I think he is a very soulful person, a great guitarist, singer and songwriter. Not as good at 79 years of age, but that is forgivable. I haven't bought an album of his since 1994, but I very much respect him.
@@adamsartist496 I meant to say that just the rehab center is paid for by musicians donating their time and money at Crossroads festival. Sounds like the mansion was paid for by renting it out. The last straw for me was when he publicly stated that the Covid vaccine ruined the joints in his fingers, and then went on ranting about it and making a song with Van Morrison against the vaccine. His hands and fingers were diagnosed with a disease a few years BEFORE Covid. In fact he had to cancel the rest of his tours in Japan because they were so bad. He flat out lied to persuade people not to vaccinate themselves. Then he said he wouldn't play any concerts where the fans had to prove they were vaccinated...a man standing up for his beliefs, right? A month later he said nevermind and went on to play at many venues where you needed vaccine proof. When it came down to money his lying principles flew out the window.
racism is as function of selfishness; so everybody has to work on having a balance of self and community, which can fluctuate as humans step into personal problems and then fix them to join the status quo
As it is extremely important! I believe he should have been fair in mindset before making this worse by taking sides .. I hope he understands that without us Jews plus Israel.. the world shall never be the same again!

El mas grande guitarrista de Rock n Blues.
After so much dedication, Clapton has every right to enjoy a rich and happy life with Melia McEnery!

He is definitely great musicaloly and as a human being. What really impresses me is that he gives to charities, thus sharing his wealth.

Highly appreciated your support for the children of Gaza
Certainly is great taste and a true passion for music 😘😚
When Clapton met Jimi Hendrix 🎸🔥
I SAW..
CLAPTAN IS A HUGE GENIOUS IN PLAY OF VIOLIN...
CLAPTON IS A FLOWER IN SONG WRITER..
CLAPTON IS A BEAUTY IN SINGER
LIKE A STARS...
I SAW
CLaPTON THIS PERFORMANCE
YES
MUCH HAPPY
INDIA
I agree. Everybody changes
I wish I was Eric Clapton, yes I really really wish I was Eric Clapton..
The tragic loss of his son cancels out all the perks in my estimation. It would shadow your life. You could never forget. You'd be haunted
Eric Clapton+ Bobby Darin both
There Sister was really his mother.
I am really surprised that you did not mention the relationship and influence from JJ Cale.
iT was great to see Eric Clapton performing at LiFe iS a CarnivaL
Pity he is nuts 18:15
❤❤❤ 😊
MY FAVORIT ...
Narrator, please find another word for "iconic."
That photo is not Melia !
good on him
CLAPTON ES DIOS
Cream was founded by :Peter Edward - Ginger- Baker you oafs
Where does he get the time ?

SORRY
YES
GENIOUS IN 'GUITAR'
Great video with one caveat! You failed to mention his amazing watches, esp' PF.
❤
also, a noted collector of fine guns and watches
I want a copy of each of his Strats.
The emperor has no clothes on. Watch and learn.
I can't wait until he performs his next last concert.
His anti vax stance makes him my hero.
Lucky for you most of the rest of the world got on with it and saved you from dying....
@@tonyratcliffe4090 Whatever - - -
Indeed being Covid injured is no fun.. I agree with Eric!
@@tonyratcliffe4090 have you ever been so allergic get anaphylaxis?

That’s such an ignorant view

Is the woman in thumbnail his daughter?
I doubt it but if that is what he enjoys! Have fun EE! 🥳🙌🌟❣️
❤I wish Mike Bledsoe loved me as much as his guitar🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
Please give it to charity. Nobody needs that much money, I work with the poorest slum children In Thailand, Thank you

Eric is an amazing guitarist, but why would you want all them Ferraris? you can only drive one at a time. The house's look awesome.
What business is it of yours what he has including cars?
@Chatti16 same as yours
@@KenHarrington32 what on earth do you mean ?
Well, he could leave his money in the bank and be taxed to death, or he could invest in real estate, art, cars and watches…..and make a fortune.
@@driver0s228 I am sure he knows what he is doing ! He is no fool!!!
Wenn man das Bild mit dieser Dame betrachtet fällt es mir schwer zu glauben das er sehr bescheiden ist . Woher wißt ihr das ?
How does having a pretty lady make him immodest.
@@dklanghe is entitied to be happy with whoever he wishes !
Great artist and influenced by J.J. Cale.

No idea who she is.. he is a lucky man ! You go EE🙌🥳❣️
I used to love Yvonne Elliman and her hit song "If I Can't Have You" don't forget Marcy Levy. Those 3 together were good.
Dick Van Dyke 99 years birthday party
Clapton was good or Clapton is god? Armani blues ? Stolen licks?Whats your opinion?
Z tym dziadem to wnuczka ?
Clapton is god, could he have spray painted that???😮
He’s got no use for those things at his time of life. Put them away.
He should cut out the politics. His anti Israel support has turned me from him . Followed him since 1964. He has now lost it as well as his mind. Mixing with the nutter Roger Walters has addled his brain.
Waters is ill.. I pray Eric is not listening to a word he says ever! Wow Roger Stop‼️

😅он успевал везде ,и сБитлс и совсеми .Увел подругу у Джоржа,и везде он подыгривал.Любитель путлера.хитрый .
Genius guitarist, but stupid politician. As Waters btw..
I’m sorry to learn of his anti vax stance. He should stick to music and leave medicine to the experts.
I agree with him on that
Opulence at its best
If u can steal ur best friends wife no woman can please you 🤪
And ofcourse at 79 makes no sense to chase the fourth 🤪

Less impressed by the real estate ("bofffff") than by the Ferrari collection.

You know you are the only clown who gave yourself a thumbs up! Don't know anything about punctuation either.
This video provided absolutely nothing that we all ready new … why beat a dead horse ..
Not a word about october 7th massacre !!! I was an absolute fan since 50 years
Now it is over. Shame on Clapton

Clapton is BAD!
Um, it was actually, "Clapton is God".
