The guitar is amazing, the verses and chorus's are mind boggling, and the ending is very dramatic and pretty. Great piano outro that seems to go on forever--and you wish it would. One of the few great Clapton songs. All you others say Hell Yea!!  | |

You mean George Harrison's wife, Patty Boyd. The coda is worth it all. Eric Clapton took Patti away from George Harrison,right? "Something" is about Patti is´nt it? Talk about a tough relationship 2 save. Not even a song like "Something" could make her stay ,poor George /peace Manki | |

Talk about a tough relationship 2 save. Not even a song like "Something" could make her stay ,poor George /peace Manki I think you're right. I wonder who else could claim 2 songs as classic as those being written about them. We know about Patti because Clapton publicly told the world, but in general songwriters don't give such specifics away about who a song is about - and I can't say I blame them.

Layla first really struck my in "GoodFellas." Scorcese used it as "Piano Exit" in a pivotal scene at the end of the movie. Awesome song. http://elmadartista.tumblr.com/ http://twitter.com/madartista | |
