text: what's the artist's name? who's the guy who sang for the lost of his baby? in that videoclip,he wears glasses unshaven,sits on a stool playing a guitar and its a very sad song dedicated to his son. i think the song is from the 90's.thanks tears in heaven by eric clapton. it was for his son, conor, who fell from their n.y.c. apartment, on march 20th, 1991. "tears in heaven" is one the "rush" soundtrack and eric clapton unplugged. it is a beautiful, sorrowful song.
