So "Tears In Heaven" by Eric Clapton, if you haven't heard this one before your missing out big time!

so the story behind this songs is about the pain Clapton felt following the death of his four-year-old son, Conor, who fell out of a 53rd-story window in his mother's friend's New York City apartment, on March 20, 1991. Clapton, who arrived at the apartment shortly after the accident was visibly distraught for months afterwards.

This song really brings beautiful, sad and touching all in one, even tho its a song about his sons death it's so hopeful because when you hear it the lyrics are like saying that no ones gone forever and you're gonna see them again and that they are happy in heaven, no tears i heaven.

he also sings that he wants to go to heaven with his son but he can't stay there because it's not his time to go. And that he must be strong because if he's not time can bring him down and he will not go to heaven when it's time. He knows that he's son is happy in heaven and he will have peace there.

The whole song bring hope for people that have died because it gives you a knowing about that the person that died will have peace i heaven and there will be no Tears In Heaven...

Eric Clapton stopped playing this song live in 2004 because when he plays that song Eric must connect with the feelings that were there when he wrote it because it a big part of preforming that song live. He has forgotten those feeling and he don't want them back particularly...
