Last year, Eric Clapton and Van Morrison teamed up to produce "Stand And Deliver," what some are referring to as a protest song against the COVID restrictions spreading faster than the actual virus itself. Perhaps with some justification, as Clapton has shared his harrowing experience with the vaccine.
Now, Clapton has issued a follow up, a song called "This Has Gotta Stop." Now 76, Clapton has been suffering from a number of debilitating ailments, some perhaps age-related, some perhaps not. He's claimed his hearing is going, his fingers are no longer able to speed across the fretboard, and he was photographed being wheeled through an airport by an aide a few years ago.
Whether or not you agree with Clapton's take on the issue, I applaud him for putting it to music rather than standing on a soapbox.
