Eric Clapton - Tears In Heaven (Live) [REACTION VIDEO] | Rebeka Luize Budlevska 

My son died from brain cancer 10 years ago. This song is cathartic for me. Fatherly grief from one Eric to another.

I am a combat veteran an old one. I have been kind of sad my whole life . then I start watching you and I seem to feel better. I beleave you have a good and pure heart. Thank you for this and God bless you

my brother passed away April 20th and i played this at his funeral it will always remind me of him

When you know the context, all you can do is cry, and we all know why, it bonds us together...

He is the strongest man out there. When this happened he was a recovering alcoholic and drug addict and he remained clean and sober through it all. I'll be honest I don't know if I could've.

This was the rehearsal version. The live version, in front of the audience, is just as powerful! Plus the camera pans to his duo backup singers! 😉

Thank you for not interrupting the song. 👍

Credit to Andy Fairweather Lowe on guitar too. A long way from “Bend me Shake Me” ! Beautiful song

It's a beautiful but tragically haunting song. I don't know how he managed to get through to the end of it. I couldn't if it had happened to any of my three children. Crying is the most appropriate reaction Rebekah.

Such a great song about such indescribable loss.

Beka, This song is heartfelt and makes me cry... I have four children that I love dearly. They are grown now. This would crush most people... Do you have tissues in reach? I need one now. I must be strong! I can not phanthom the pain this would bring into your life.

God im crying now.

A very respectful reaction Rebeka. I couldn't help but get the feeling this reminded you of something.

My relation to Eric Clapton has always been personal. My aunt worked at Live Nations in the '70s. She worked as a host and greeted the bands, artists when they visited Stockholm on their tours. Among the artists, she showed around was Eric Clapton. I went to his concerts because of her. But I didn´t meet him in person. Even though I had the opportunity Yes, this song is heartbreaking when you know the background to it. But. There is another instrumental version of it that deserves listening to. And that is the bassist's Kanga Glyk´s of tears in heaven: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-S2QmtENFh2Y.html

He was so devistated when his son died

Layla is another iconic song by Eric Clapton first released under his pseudonym of Derek and the Dominos because he wanted anonymity from his fame

great song choice

Rebcis to me this was one of your nucest reactions, you gave the Respect this sad story deserves you're a warm human being

Reminds me of when I lost my brother in combat.

I dont know how to stand to a tragedy like that

Rebeka is beautiful!

no comment. because, song speaks it self....

si mal no recuerdo aca fue la primera vez que canto en vivo el tributo a su hijito

BTW, that's everyone's reaction when they learn the story behind the song.

Cool

Merry Christmas sweetie ⛄⛄⛄

Rebeka, if I might, I would like to recommend two more beautiful, but sad songs that will also tug at your heartstrings; they are “Monsters, by James Blunt and Concrete Angel, by Martina McBride. If you haven’t heard and reacted, to them; you might want to give one or both a listen. 😪

This is his profound and personal tragic song I think he recovered from such tragic personal loss...

Try Wonderful Tonight

This was about eric son..

So sad but still it is a great song u look so sad

Real Deal Ariesman ♈️

Love Eric as a musician but not as a parent I can't, what were they thinking leaving a door or a window open in a building at 53 stories with a small child what were they thinking??? Brain dead stuff I mean really must have been on something and not paying attention to what their kids are up to. It's sad knowing that it could have been prevented with a bit of common sense.

Such a tragedy. I used to work in the next building and I will never forget the sorrow. Excellent tribute to his beloved son. 😢

I lost my son about a year before this song came out it still rips my heart out every time I dont know how he done it

This was such a tragedy I do not understand why someone would give this song a thumbs down.

It's always good to see a reaction, from someone who listens to the full song without interrupting it, then speakig at the end, that is what you call courtesy for the song.

What a heart felt and wonderful song. I pray Eric's son is at peace!! I believe he is!!!! Eric handled this with class!!! He is stronger than most men!!!!!

The biggest pain a man cold have, could made the most beautiful lirycs and music 😢😢

I'm still so sad for Eric, a man who has brought so much joy to the world through his music and has suffered so much tragedy...losing his son like this, loosing part of his band in the helicopter crash that killed Stevie Ray Vaughn, loosing friends through the years like Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, John Lennon, George Harrison, etc.!!! So much tragedy!! This is still one of the best MTV Unplugged shows EVER!!

Hi, His son fell out of a flat (apartment) window and died. So he wrote this song for him. I love this song.

every time i hear this song it makes me want to cry

This song is one of the few songs a grown man can cry to without feeling less of a man. Any man that doesn't get teary eyed over such a song, are dead inside. I am man enough to say I cry every time I hear this song. Especially knowing the truth behind this song.

I have listened to this song from the time it came out, means more to me. My daughter has cancer at 29, l am 69 years old.

I'm not gonna lie. I'm a 43 y.o. dad and this song still brings me to my knees

The only person elected to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame three different times once for The Yardbirds once with cream and once as a solo artist you should react to cream and The Yardbirds

Eric sure sounds English in this view when he is talking. After all of the hell he has been thru hell still sings well. His guitar work speaks for itself. They only made one Clapton!! This event would be soul crushing and could destroy many women & men's relationships. God it is wonderful......

This such a sad song but more so for his little boy who fell out of that window

I can remember when that happened. Sad day.❤️❤️

I love this song, so good, so emotional with a lovely message after such a tragedy. 🕯️

Andy doing a great job on 2nd guitar as usual

Andy played second guitar.brilliant performance 😢

He could go through it.Respect to him.He will definitely see him in Heaven.

Hi Rebeka, he also wrote the beautiful and sad song Circus Left Town about the tragic death of his son and he performed it during this same unplugged performance (there's a couple videos of it on RU-vid).

His son died tragically which inspired tis song he hurt terribly.

This song was bout his young son fallen of a building

I have listened to this beautiful piece once and now twice to date whenever it comes on the air I deliberately choose Not to listen.only because of its heartbreaking meaning

You should check out Eric Clapton's contribution to the band Cream. Cream another great band.

This was a rehearsal for Clapton's critically acclaimed live show/album Unplugged. It is so personal, intimate and passionate. To the best of my knowledge, it was also the first time Eric had played this very emotional song for a full audience. I'm both amazed and grateful that he was able to do so.

This subject matter of this song is SO damn sad. Gut wrenching!!!! Eric is such a talent.... I think losing a child is every parents worst nightmare!! Eric was SO strong thru this terrible event. Thank you girl for this review!!!!! Thank you lady again..............

Eric's spiritual development is best heard in the album Pilgrim

One of the best written songs ever...

Rebeka, You knew the context of this song from the start. I could see it on your pretty face! Losing a child would crush most people! This is a beautiful & touching tribute to Connor......

He wrote this song dedicated to his son who tragically fell from a skyscraper. I think that without understanding that, the song loses a lot of value.

I play guitar since I was 7 (I'm 32) and this guy is my one and only Guitar Hero. Since I saw him live with 12 years old, doing amazing and magical things with the guitar, I always wanted to play like he does. And creating such a beautiful and heartfelt song from his biggest tragedy...¡DAMN! Great song and great reaction, Becks 👏👏👏

Very touching song.

When my son was murdered we played this at hie memorial service. and just like now I melt into tears every time I hear it....

Can remember this all happening such a powerful song which always brings a tear to my eye

The real song about the Clapton's son death is "Circus Left Town". Search it. So beatiful and so sad....

Classic song words cannot describe

Soooo pleased you did this reaction to this song. Well you choose such brilliant songs to cover and likewise I can’t speak right now!

I can't imagine the pain Eric must have gone through. You are entitled to pass on this one.

Thank you for sharing your vulnerable side. It is so relatable to our struggles in every day life.

I find it very difficult to listen to this song. I was ok until you said you couldn’t say anymore. I had some tears.

The worst thing that can happen in the life... Respect and no comment.

Authentic woman😍😍😏💘💘 ... Rebcis

So sad but still remembered the "Please subscribe..." bit. Hmm.

WHENEVER ERIC PLAYS THIS LIVE, NOT A DRY EYE IN THE PLACE!!

Eric has the courage of 100 men

Heartbreaking x

I cannot get past the first verse without crying.

The song is dedicated to the loss of his 4 yr old son

one of the best reaction videos i have ever seen

Heartfelt and emotional song ❤ ❤❤💖

What a career. What a tragedy.

Listen to Roy Orbison, crying

Very moving song of an extremely sad time. Another wonderful reaction with great respect. Thanks Rebeka

Sacred... Do not touch..

You are pretty ❤️🔥

Eric said he cried every day for 4 years for every day that Connor was on this earth. The day before the accident Eric said he finally realized what having a child was. He loved Connor and he loved playing with him whenever they saw each other but he just didn't get what a blessing it is to have a child until the day before the accident. He wanted Connor and his mother to come back to Germany with him and live and Connors mother agreed. So It was Connor's 4rth birthday plus him amd mommy were going to fly back to Germany with daddy and on top of that they were going to the carnival. So to say Connor was over the moon the day he died is an understatement.

👍👍👍

A blond floozy

Sad

wow this brings me back in time,,, when this song came out my girl friend lost her mother way to soon then shortly after that i lost her, i have never loved anyone like i loved her ever,,,,xoxo sheila

I don't know if you like country music, but if you do listen to Brad Paisley "Whiskey Lullaby" saddest song I ever heard.

: )

Have you listened to "No One But You" ? QUEEN'S tribute to Freddie.Brian,Roger and John in a touching video.
