Eric Clapton - Love In Vain Lyrics
Well, I followed her to the station
With a suitcase in my hand.
Lord, I followed her to the station
With a suitcase in my hand.
Well, it's hard to tell, it's hard to tell,
All my love is in vain.
When the train pulled up to the station,
I looked her in the eye.
When the train pulled up to the station,
I looked her in the eye.
I was lonesome, I felt so lonesome,
And I could not help but cry.
All my love is in vain.
With two lights on behind.
Well, the train it left the station
With two lights on behind.
Well, the blue light was my blues,
The red light was my mind.
All my love is in vain.
Oh oh,
Oh, Willie Mae.
Oh oh oh oh oh,
Oh, Willie Mae.
Oh oh oh oh oh,
Oh vee oh woe.
All my love is in vain.

Eric Clapton Love In Vain Comments
Love this man
Clapton is God.
I wanted Blues songs to use vintage Gibson.
Do u understand this mean?
Me and Mr. Johnstone - Clapton's best album.
1:26 that Riff is called the fuck off riff

Well I followed her to the station
With a suitcase in my hand
Yeah, I followed her to the station
With a suitcase in my hand
Whoa, it's hard to tell, it's hard to tell
When all your love's in vain
[Verse 2]
When the train rolled up to the station
I looked her in the eye
Well the train rolled up to the station
And I looked her in the eye
Whoa, I felt so sad so lonesome
That I could not help but cry
[Verse 3]
When the train left the station
It had two lights on behind
Yeah, when the train left the station
It had two lights on behind
Whoa, the blue light was my baby
And the red light was my mind
[Outro]
All my love was in vain
All my love's in vain
I will tell my kids that i existed along side one of the greatest guitar heroes this world has known
I would have been dead if a kid ran across the screen and did a swan dive out the window.
What the fuck, the title of the video should say, Robert Johnson - love in Vain
he loves blues so much that his face says it all
Astalculo
Is he playing a Martin J40?
This guy would make a good musician
Never heard this played so great. Only Clapton can make it sound so good.
Stones version nothing to sneeze at
This is haunting. Clapton channeling Johnson perfectly.
Beautiful
white martin? this guitar is one of a kind
A prro traes la guitarra del coco:0
Jack Bruce's sideman ain't bad.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivMLbmxhIUQ&feature=youtu.be our take
The Stones did a good version of this Robert Johnson classic.
The vers of rolling stones is better
BORN OF GUITAR GODS. I'm 1000% sure
A guy filmed in a bedroom playing guitar. Yet, we are lightyears from the average youtuber. Clapton embodies a whole part of music history. This sounds so real.
I know it's Eric Clapton and he's a great guitar player but when I hear white guys singing blues it just doesn't sound quite right, something is missing, it's similar to hearing someone sing flamenco who isn't Gypsy born and bred it doesn't fit. Like George Carlin once said "White guys should stick to what they know, giving other people the blues, not singing them."
What king of racist comment is that? Fisrt of all, educate your sorry ass, flamenco is not a gypsy musical style, but Spanish, from Andalusia. And so do you think that athletes like Serena Williams, Lewis Hamilton or Tiger Woods should have stuck to playing basketball? Ooow no sorry, basketball was invented by a white man... And maybe black blues singer should just have stuck to singing without playing guitar, since it was invented by a white man, Antonio de Torres... Pfffff, your comment is so full of ignorance I hope your trolling. Or else you are just one stupid ass, scumbag human being.
Well, I followed her to the station
With a suitcase in my hand
Lord, I followed her to the station
With a suitcase in my hand
Well, it's hard to tell, it's hard to tell
When all your love's in vain
All my love is in vain
When the train pulled up to the station
And I looked her in her eye
When the train pulled up to the station
And I looked her in her eye
I was lonesome, I felt so lonesome
And I could not help but cry
All my love is in vain
Well, the train, it left the station
Two lights on behind
Well, the train, it left the station
With two lights on behind
Well, the blue light was my blues
The red light was my mind
All my love is in vain
Ooh, Willie Mae
Ooh, ooh, Willie Mae
All my love is in vain
Thanks 🍻
Can't say I've ever seen a white Martin. Pretty sweet.
I am disappointed tempo to fast
Er hat es drauf
Check out Edward Phillips if you want the best playing and singing in this genre, you will be satisfied.Sorry Eric .
To answer all your comments below about EC not playing the original or sounding the same......he's not trying or intending to be Robert Johnson! He is simply paying homage to him.
I've been listening to Clapton for over 50 years and there's not one note I've ever heard him play that I didn't thoroughly enjoy!
He’s never been a good singer Jack Bruce was a good singer
Sooooo much better than freakin "Layla" IMHO :)
Ladies and gentlemen, that's why they call him " Slowhand".
That's actually because he always took a lot of time to change his strings when they broke on stage. I used to think it was for this reason too !
@Nicolas Durand nice! Good story. I never knew
Who is this guy? Looks like the architect down the street.
236 people are living their lives in vain
281 people without any vains.
Veins, if they dislike this.
Is he shooting the finger at us
Clapton is God 🐕.
This Kid has a future!
Tommy Emmanuelle please thank you
Dig the white Martin
Eric you played better when you took Drugs.
Only a fucking moron would write something so purely idiotic. A moron who can't play guitar worth shit. Every single jerk-off who thinks of stupidities likes this is someone I easily play under a table. lol!
The genius of simplicity, or the simplicity of genius ❤️☯️🙏 Double genius, actually, Johnson and Clapton.
Am I the only one who spotted the 6263 on a bund strap on his wrist? This man knew a classic before the prices went craycray.
He just read the book: " Guitar playing for dummies"
Wow! Raw! Home recording set up of the Legend.Just like we amateurs doing covers ☺
Head; Look closely at the guitar playing, you could learn a thing or two.
Heart; LOOKATTHATWATCHLOOKATTHATWATCHLOOK!!!!!!!
Non vedo l ora che arrivi giugno per andare a milano a sentirlo!
Clapton is GOD
Big time cultural appropriation
Most Hated I think your comment just shows that your name is correct - Most Hated, no wonder when you go about commenting such idiotic rubbish on videos
damn that guitar is white but has some soul.
Clapton is God
nice joke men
This version is much better than the one in Eric's 2004 album
nice sneackers...
Well I followed her, to the station
With a suitcase in my hand
Yeah, I followed her to the station
With a suitcase in my hand
Whoa, it's hard to tell, it's hard to tell
When all your love's in vain
When the train, come in the station
I looked her in the eye
Well the train come in the station
And I looked her in the eye
Whoa, I felt so sad so lonesome
That I could not help but cry
When the train left the station
It had two lights on behind
Yeah, when the train left the station
It had two lights on behind
Whoa, the blue light was my baby
And the red light was my mind
All my love was in vain
It's not the right color and gloss of guitar at singing this song
If he wasn't a guitar player he would be a chemical engineer.
He always knows Robert Johnson was better than him. Stop degrading Eric Clapton just because RJ was better. Clapton is the first to admit it
I followed her to the station with HER suitcase in my hand.
That looks like room 414 in the Gunter Hotel, San Antonio, Texas, where Robt Johnson recorded the 16 tracks of his entire recorded output.
LOve is in vain. Or these days, in vein. People have become the walking Stupid.
God that subtle interplay of bass and higher notes just sounds so good. Especially on headphones. Fitting tribute to the ethereal Robert Johnson.
what a boring cunt.
Hell... - This Man seems to be a real "6-String-Woodboard-Grandmaster"... - And the Composition itself, it unbosoms Handwriting of a real Grand-Master, too. - - So then... - perhaps you'ld like to try another Wink, although extremely unknown: -> www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSfg-TdY7GM (4 Minute-Ballad; maybe try to have a little Fun there-in) ;-)
its a heatwave up here on Vancouver Island Canada in May....this transforms me to the Delta or down by the Riverside.
"I think that was okay" :D
Exellent.it is from the Clapton Cd and Dvd Sessions for Robert Johnson a must have🎙🎸🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🎵👌
Damn near perfect
What a master
hmmm the only one who does Johnson justice is Keef I think
Like Eric himself said he did the best he could but still RJ is a far better blues player. Original vocals are more sad and the guitar fills give the song the real sadness expression. Probably Buddy Guy or Muddy Waters could have come even closer to the original... Who knows.
It's always difficult to replicate someone else's magic. Sure this guys own a lot to RJ. Nice to see Eric paying a tribute to a legend who opened the doors for many.
Peace and love.
very nice
Que triste es saber que nunca tocaremos ese cover como Robert ni clapton así es que no queda más que escuchar las grabaciones que dejo
Clapton is useless
240 Bieber fans disliked the video. Learning who Robert Johnson and Eric Clapton represent probably will not make a difference to thin minds
"i think that was ok..." then starts practicing! awesome!
Robert do this better.
but also the stones doing a better version
Martin Bellezza Bianca - Very Best Guitar !
No color of music never take it away from all us any one play with feeling no music mistake.
This guy 💖
1000th comment.
C! C OOL! ! Dédicace à Mémé Jacqueline !
Very nice! His acoustic blues picking has come a long way since his MTV Unplugged special.
Maior músico que já vi na vida !
If this guy can play a few more songs all the way through, I think we could get him down the village hall . He could do a few songs between the disco.
Is that a Santa Cruz ?
No, it is a Martin. Did you not see my post below? I OWN this guitar, as in THE one used here in this recording, not a copy, THE guitar. It is currently for sale at Gruhn's Guitar's in Nashville for $50k. The sales price is based off use in the photoshoot with Martin, because I am having issues getting the documentation But I have photo 4/4 made. The other protos all had pick guards. This video was filmed in July 2004, shortly after my prototype #4 was finished in June. It wasn't until two years later the white Martin Belleza Bianca was introduced.
Great, my hero!
🤘💃🐓💃🐓💃🐓🚂🕴🕴awesome 💓
Massive racist.
And a shit guitarist.
rj l is a know nothing fuctard
I now own this EXACT guitar. As in THE guitar used by Eric for this DVD/CD. Prototype #4/4! It may be going to auction in the near future. Prototype #3/4 sold for $42,000, that one had a black pick guard and played just on the NBC Today Show.
This guitar, prototype 4/4 was not only used on this project, but was also featured on the January 2006 Edition of Martin's newsletter, The Sounding Board, Volume 20. In addition, Eric is pictured holding prototype #4/4 (again without pick guard) in that catalog and in the Martin photo online. Plus, it was the last of 4 prototypes made. Can't believe I found this.
And Martin has verified use by Eric based on the prototype number and serial number. Too cool for school!
Beautiful as always. Nobody plays like him
