(Submit New Eric Clapton Lyrics) (Submit New Eric Clapton Lyrics) Review about Eric Clapton "Cursed/ Called" | Reviewer: Dave Kennard ------ About the song HOLY MOTHER performed by Eric Clapton I believe that it is "I've cursed your name a thousand times". In my opinion, this lyric is a song about a man who has been through strife, and now is looking for some means of salvation. The lyric "Holy mother, hear my cry, I've cursed your name a thousand times. I've felt the anger running through my soul; Holy Mother can't keep control" is about realizing that although he has cursed the holy mother, he is now ready for the salvation he could receive. Also, I believe that it is "All I need is your hand to hold", not "Holy mother, can't keep control" Your stories are so touching.. | Reviewer: Guy Williams ------ About the song Tears In Heaven performed by Eric Clapton I was searching for the lyrics to this song because i wanted to sing it at a tribute concert to my late friend who passed away due to a car accident. I happened to scroll down a little bit more and read the reviews....your stories touched my heart and i felt your pain as well...however, i cant imagine losing my mum, my dad, my sis or even my beloved girlfriend...it would just break my heart. But you guys have gone through it..and you have my utmost respect and admiration for holding on this long even after losing a loved one. Indeed Eric Clapton has made a beautiful song out of sorrow from the passing of his son Connor.. holy mother | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song HOLY MOTHER performed by Eric Clapton I just listened to EC live at Hyde Park. The word is without doubt "cursed". Makes sense that when you think about it. He is not cursing Holy Mother in the song, simply confessing that he had in the past; I'm sure as a result of pain in his life. my bf | Reviewer: joanie manila ------ About the song Tears In Heaven performed by Eric Clapton if i hear this song i always remember my 23yr.old boyfriend,he past away last Feb.3,2009...I'll never forget him,because he's my first love and he's such a good guy...I had a guilt feelings the day i knew that he is dead because i didn't ask him if he has a prob...I really love him,last March 26,2009 was our 3 years anniversary...I miss you so much sungit my mam nd dear friend | Reviewer: Roann ------ About the song Tears In Heaven performed by Eric Clapton i recently lost me mam to murder and i witnessed it this song makes me feel that she is always around with me in everything i do she will stay with me and she will be in my heart and mind i all i need to do is keep our memories alive. i also lose a dear friend a few years back due to brain tumors i remember he use to say keep your dreams alive never let then die x Love | Reviewer: Lellie ------ About the song Wonderful Tonight performed by Eric Clapton I fell in love with a "wonderful" kid when we were 16 years old. He was learning how to play guitar. It took him some time, but he learned it. That was 25 years ago. He plays it alot better now! We've been through it all: living together, being marred, having a baby, major illness, getting a divorce, marring others, divorcing others, but mostly being best friends. He still plays it for me; I still get that same "goosey" feeling just like when I was a kid. This is by far, one of the best songs written..."EVER" eric's part in saving my life. | Reviewer: tony brown ------ About artist/band Eric Clapton I was lying in bed after my 10th detox getting ready to celerbrate my sobriety with a drink? and someone told me ERIC CLAPTON was an alcoholic? But he is well? my friend bought me his book, i started to belive that recovery was possible,I made this promise, if ther is a god get me into a 12 step rehab and get me through and i will dedicate the rest of my new life to helping alcoholics God did save me and i've been fighting the system here in england to help alkys' for the last 6 years + we now number 47 1year+ 16 2years+ and 7 3years+ sober inspite of the medical control your drinking system. ERIC'S music is probably the most important thing about Eric for the vast magority of the human race, but to my little group of sober alcoholics his example of sober living is his gift to us. I just missed you (ERIC) at the MUSTARD SEED CHICAGO last month i hope to have the oppertunity to meet you one day, in the mean time thank you from the bottom of my heart LIF tony b PS Mahat says hi Alberta | Reviewer: Paul Lincoln(John)-Newtok ------ About the song ALBERTA performed by Eric Clapton In the late 80's, I had a chance to meet my childhood hero name Eric Clapton here in Anchorage, Alaska. He just came into the town without notice. I met him in the local bar. He was looking for or get a information about his late dad. Obviously I had know him during my childhood in Nelson Island area. I did written a song titled "Alberta" during my high school years down at Toksook Bay after I briefly attended Bethel Regional High School. That is where I got to know Alberta Foss, obviously I was just another Yup'ik native. Just like any teenager, I began to wrote a song in 1978-79. I introduced myself to Eric, I was Paul John from Newtok than. But I used the name of "Huddi Ledbetter" for that particular song. The reason why I used that name was to protect Eric from certain militant group in U.S. Military. I also considered myself as C-12. Obviously Eric Clapton did wonderful job recording that song the way it was. This song was written for Alberta Foss orignally Bethel,Alaska. It is a love song for her. girl i fell for loves this song | Reviewer: myth ------ About the song Wonderful Tonight performed by Eric Clapton a few weeks ago there was this girl that i was getting into, and it was close to valentine's day i was trying to figure out what to make this a special day, i decided to look the stuff that she's into and found this song on her favorite list. i checked it out and fell in love with the song. i was thinking of singing this song to her, but things didn't go well i didn't get to serenade her with the song cuz something happened and now well lets say that we are not in speaking terms. but i still like this song its really good kinda reminds me of her beautiful smile. cursed | Reviewer: royphilip ------ About the song HOLY MOTHER performed by Eric Clapton I don't get it. Is it because curse is such a negative word to be used with holy? If you follow through to the next verse or line.... it is an admission of the author doing a "bad thing" and explaining why. "Called" does not belong to the entire thought of the paragraph. It does not make it logical. The author is asking/pleading for an audience with a holy being despite his actions and his anger. Another Explanation | Reviewer: Anthony ------ About the song HOLY MOTHER performed by Eric Clapton I have just read everyones comment and would like to give my input on this song. Reffering to the whole "Cursed/called" issue, I have seen many sites that have "Called" instead of "Cursed". At this moment no one is really sure what the lyric actually is. Although I would like to note that I have a copy of "Eric Clapton and Friends" at home. Clapton himself sings "I've cursed your name a thousand times". But Im still not too sure. fabian we miss u so much T_T | Reviewer: dika ------ About the song Tears In Heaven performed by Eric Clapton i lost my friend too, fabian commited suicide coz he was suffered from drugs, and till today im still crying every read his comment on my friendster...love you fab,we miss ur joke n ur laugh. i won't forget you forever and we'll meet again someday, we promise T_T Grand Illusion by EC | Reviewer: David Lobato ------ About the song Grand Illusion performed by Eric Clapton I think this is one of the best lead guitar solos he did. It was powerful, in a way, but very sweet and graceful the way he slides several times down the neck. He also gets a bit of woman-tone effect near the end. I always wished he played it in concert. Way too little detail about Duane Allman and others | Reviewer: 88maverick ------ About artist/band Eric Clapton Disappointed greatly that Clapton only briefly mentioned Tom Dowd and Duane Allman,two very pivotal persons in his career. Book is way too thin on details of his music and way too thick on his obsession with minor details of his AA days. my friend... | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Tears In Heaven performed by Eric Clapton my friend died of suiside aswell and i miss him so so much.. i think of him all the time in my dreams... i just wish i could turn back time and bring him back..i miss him so much... everytime i hear this song it reminds me of him so much... but this song is a beautiful song... ihope when i see all my loved ones again in heaven i hope they know my name and know who i am...!!! r.i.p loved ones...xxxxx my beloved dad | Reviewer: deddy ferdinand ------ About the song Tears In Heaven performed by Eric Clapton this song makes me cry for my beloved dad who commited suicide in september this year by sick, i cant never forget that day when my father died in my arms, he is my inspiration of my live, i look him like hero who never surrender to keep his family safe, i hope he allways know my name and allways hold my hand, forgive me dad who never makes you happy, you allways be in my heart, never change my love for you, bye my lovely dad My Daughter | Reviewer: Lorraine ------ About the song Tears In Heaven performed by Eric Clapton Well this song is really great and as my daughter comitted suicide it makes me think about her eve=rytime i hear this song. She was only 13 but she killed herself because of problems at school. Now we told her 2 be strong but she couldnt do it i just wish i could av been stronger for her. I miss her so much and this song is great and bringds back wonderful memories of me and her together. x amazing song...this is why | Reviewer: Mac ------ About the song Wonderful Tonight performed by Eric Clapton I am currently in a long distance relationship with my GF and we go to seperate colleges. We both know we want to be with each other the rest of our lives with each other. I just got home from visiting her and am missing her terribly ALREADY. Then i this song came on my ipod on random on the train home and i had to go into the bathroom because i jsut started to cry because i realized how much in LOVE with her i am. The original | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song HOLY MOTHER performed by Eric Clapton Hello there; I would like to draw your attention to the original version of the song. If you hear the original version in stead of the one with Pavarotti, you would not be in doubt about the cursed/called-thing. Furthermore: If you read Clapton's autobiography, you will learn the meaning of the song. Me & Mr. Johnson | Reviewer: Diane ------ About the album Me and Mr. Johnson performed by Eric Clapton I have been a Clapton fan for as long as I can remember, and this is great work by EC and his band. Sessions for Robert J is also another example of a focused and talented album by the artists. These 2 albums introduced me to Robert Johnson, and I thank EC and company for that introduction.
