Eric Clapton[70] 11. Tears in Heaven...
A QUOTE - "My husband and I were always HUGE slowhand fans. My 3 kids know all his songs. When my husband died in an accident at the age of 36 in 2015, I couldnt enjoy Clapton for awhile, and I definitely could not listen to this song. I just knew that if I felt like I did losing my husband and father of my kids, he must have been even worse when he lost his boy. Slowly over time, I have been able to crank his tunes in my car the way we used to. Then i started to not skip tears in heaven when it would play, and I loved it. This is the first time I have heard this version, and wow...I fell the evolution of grief when I hear it different concerts. This version I can hear peace, healing, even a little bit of joy in remembering. I am so glad I didn't give up on slowhand. He is the best, no one can change my mind."...

I hadn't heard it live; it definitely has a nuanced reflection to it. Such a talented guy felled by his grief over the tragic loss of his son from that fall from their high-rise.

I think this song is great for anyone who has lost someone close to them.

21 years ago my son died in a motorcycle stupid stunt. I preached his funeral sermon and laid him in the ground. My granddaughter takes after him so strongly, it is sometimes unnerving. God bless all of you who have also lost loved ones….and YES! I will see him in heaven….I actually see him weekly when I pray “and now with Angels and Archangels and ALL the COMPANY OF HEAVEN, we join their unending hymn: Holy, Holy, Holy Lord, God of power and might, Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord, Hosanna in the highest. I see Jason standing right there as Jesus enters the bread and wind of the Holy Eucharist. Every Sunday I see all of those many who have died in my life, and I know we will join them.
BTW. Eric Clapton is awesome!
