"Eric Clapton.. tears in heaven.. beautiful yet really sad...  "
Such a beautiful song and I've always thought it was wrote about his 4yo son but others on here previously have told me different. But yes I agree such a touching tribute x |

Yes it was a while ago I had a big discussion on here and he was saying it was originally made for a film called Danto, (or similar) and he then dedicated it after to his son. So I'm not sure now to be honest x |

Ah yes I Googled it. The song for the movie came first apparently, but a song about his son was always there, like a subconscious thing. I guess the creative process isn't that clear cut. |

Apparently it's a bit of both he had it half written about his son but finished writing it with Will Jennings for a film, kind of used the film as a reason to get it finished. |

I knew it was something like that. Apparently he got his inspiration from a Jimmy cliff song 'many rivers to cross' about seeing loved ones again. He vowed never to sing the song live again as it was getting to impersonal to him. |

I can imagine singing such a personal song could have consequences.
Daddy's Gone - Glasvegas, comes to mind

Nutshell - Alice in Chains
It's so sad that he sings about wanting to kill himself and does so, not that long after.
Nick Cave - I Need You
He made this album throughout his son's tragic death. Even his voice sounds different on this album. As though he's going to break down with each word.

"Green Green Fields Of France, the Dropkick Murphy version.
it's a beautiful sad song about a man sitting by the Grave And reflecting on the life of a young world war 1 soldier "
Damn, I love that song. I do prefer The The Fureys and Davey Arthur version. Always reminds me of my Grandad. |

Pharell - Happy
It was played at the funeral of my cousins daughter - it was her favourite song. She was only 18 months old. Seeing a tiny pink coffin brought in is not something I ever want to see again |
