Im 22, I love Clapton and discovered him through eric, eric surrounds himself with some great musicians, and the more you dig into Andy’s catalogue it’s a testament today, love his music very underrated.

[@tamhughes7326]

Andy is a genius and this is in my top 5 songs of all time 💙

[@katherinesmyth6439]

A very underrated singer & guitarist

[@davidhubbert9445]

Good day Kathryn I agree with that quality tune.

[@stephenloughlin6968]

[@user-wt5is7xd3l]

wide eyed and legless but the years have been good to me only the weekends have took their toll

[@sappertim1]

Happy times, memories of good days.

[@josepmariavidal9112]

A superb melody. Thumbs up!

[@siliconesal]

Fabulous song /singer 👌

[@gkmannheim]

Masterpiece

[@d.a.elliottjr.367]

I remember hearing this once or twice on radio in the mid 70s & hearing it extremely rarely ever since. Remember thinking it had a weird title & wondering if I was hearing it right.

[@kdp8133]

It's a description of being drunk - well legless was. Not used so much now, but you'd describe yourself as being legless.

[@user-ju7yh2gz6y]

Favourite song for me remember you forever Helen ❤x

[@lewstone1934]

[@t.yeverythingisgoodreturn5893]

全英チャート6位となったナンバー♪日だまりで緩やかに流れている様な雰囲気と、この方には珍しいハイトーンvo.がgoodです(^^)日本のCITY POPにも通じる感じを受けました。

[@hiptrip99]

西海岸風AOR先取りって感じです。

[@andrewjoseph149]

16 years sober wouldn't have that state back for anything

[@ancientmusketeer6564]

Keep going Andrew, I've been in recovery for 32 years and every minute is worth it.

[@EdwardSteven352]

Great instrumental break !

[@smokinjz]

Wherever I go and whatever I do
I seem to spend some of my time
Trying to turn the black night, blue
Well I'm tired of it all
It's the same thing every night
But the rhythm of the glass
Is stronger than the rhythm of night
Wide eyed and legless
I've gone and done it again
Wide eyed and legless
This world is full of my shame
Shame, I can't get free from these chains
Oh, oh-oh
(Instrumental)
Wide eyed and legless
I've gone and done it again
Wide eyed and legless
This world is full of my shame
Shame, I can't get free from these chains
Oh, oh-oh
I've been here before
But this time it feels like the end
I should've known better, I know
But my memory's no friend
Well, I've tried every thing
That I know will get rid of this fling
And I can't understand
Why I'm wide eyed and legless again
Wide eyed and legless
I've gone and done it again
Wide eyed and legless
This world is full of my shame
Shame, I can't get free from these chains
Oh, oh-oh

[@mryoda_dna]

Thanks man, I think these were the lyrics to my distant younger days.

[@knickertwistcopperby6066]

'I seem to spend ALL of my time trying to change MY black NIGHTS blue'..Rhythm of 'life' not night! 'Get rid of this 'pain' not 'fling' - that is gibberish! All the lyric websites have this wrong - inexcusable!

[@martinhanley9524]

But the rhythm of the glass is stronger than the rhythm of 'life'.

[@84arsenalgirl]

[@siliconesal]

Make the most of it -it’s terrible not to be alone sometimes, people pray for it 😀

[@NMMC4ever]

"The Wedding Gift" DVD with Julie Walters brought me here.

[@nineofsevenmot.2987]

My '7 days a week' song.....sigh 😐

[@paulshannon7303]

Sounds like Gallgher and Lyle?

[@siliconesal]

Every era of music seems to have its signature, like paintings - it was a great year.

[@alexandrumanta1439]

This is a nice tune, but its hard to play on guitar (B major), and impossible to sing ( G#3 to B4)

[@pauldrew5724]

😂

[@griswald7156]

It’s the sort of music they play in the cinema in the interval…

[@paulitics6931]

Gojo:

[@garyfinn8772]

Boss song worst cover in the world

[@Derry_Aire]

This isn't a cover you numbnut, Fairweather Low wrote it.

[@ytnsanw]

Well, he (Andy Fairweather Low) wrote it, so not really a cover....

[@WakingUpToday213]

I thought Gary meant the album cover, which actually is pretty "lame."
