pixelatedboat aka “mr bluesky”: I can’t believe Taylor Swift put this song on her new album. Disgusting.

I can’t believe Taylor Swift put this song on her new album. Disgusting.

If you actually bothered to listen to the whole song, you would know that she has a perfectly valid reason for it (Eric Clapton's son still owes her $50, which he borrowed from her 30 years ago and never paid back because he died)

Thank you for the explanation If you grew up during this time You wouldn’t listen long enough to understand what you just explained. Namaste 💐

The child was 4 years old when he died and Taylor was 3 years old… one hell of a tough pre school if kids are loaning money to each other. I would just trash Eric for all his racist BS

That’s old enough to understand that if someone lends you $50 it’s your duty to pay it back

Especially as the older child!!

Exactly. Grow up and accept some responsibility for your actions

I’m confused. Tears in Heaven is about the tragic death of Clapton’s 4 year old son. How did his son owe her 50 dollars?

He borrowed it to buy an eighth of weed and a McDonald’s Happy Meal.

Clapton and the Swifts are extraordinarily wealthy. Rather than buy their children coloring books they simply let them color on large bills. Which frankly makes her vendetta all the more puzzling because like… it’s just $50 Taylor, you use 50s as crepe paper, why are you still mad?!

I’m not mad or angry, I just don’t get it. We will l ave at that. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yes, they're extraordinarily wealthy, but Taylor isn't a vicious, snarling racist, and Eric is. Even worse, he's been one since he was young, and never had a moment of self-reflection. He's simply a creep.

Imagine, that's like 200 bucks in today's money, with inflation!

That dick

i told my mother i did not give a shit about taylor swift's new album but having seen this track i'm reconsidering

Which reminds me of a joke: What's the difference between a toddler and a bag of cocaine? Eric Clapton wouldn't let a bag of cocaine fall out of a window.

I WHUPPED CLAP-TON'S ASS!

TAYLOR SWIFT! TAYLOOOOOOOOR SWIFT!

You are my rock and roller You are my engineer

Cut that mullet, jerk! Tell the barber that you're sick of looking like an asshole.

Rock over London Rock on Chicago TCBY That's the Country's Best Yogurt

I misread this as "Eric Clapton's ass" and was like "yeah, go for it. kick the racist"

Yeah, I’d become a massive Taylor fan if there was a song all about beat the shit out of that bigot.

"Look what you made me do (what you made me do was beat you up you racist old fart with your racist comments) "

Why cant anyone read, I hope this is bait that I just fell for

While I can’t approve of this kind of language but I must admit it’s refreshing to see an artist speak their truth

Actually, I fully endorse these lyrics. Go get that baby, Taylor!

Alright I'll bite, why do hate Eric Clapton?

“Rock Against Racism” in the 70s was largely a response to how racist Eric Clapton is.

Yeah, so I caught up on this guy, since I barely knew him by name this morning. But in theory, we need to thank him for igniting the war against racism? I always try to look at the positive side of the idea.

Growing up, I was a big fan of his. Now I realize that was only because my mother is a racist.

Like pointing out that slaves were taught vocational skills? Yeah, don't fucking do that.

Yeah that's pretty bad. I didn't know. Now I do. Thanks.

According to Wikipedia, he addressed this with apparent shame, in 2018, when confronted with the footage of his rant… but I’m not comfortable with the amount of time that had to pass for him to make such a statement. I mean, that rant is SUPER HORRIFIC.

He's also gone off the deep end since the pandemic.

I have never paid him much interest because his work wasn’t really my thing, but to hear that he’s gone off the deep end since the pandemic just seems to go right in line with what I’ve just learned about him today.

I was hoping this was in the same vein as OP's screenshot It was not people.com/music/eric-c...

Eric Clapton's Racist 1976 Rant Resurfaces After Announcing Lockdown Protest Song with Van Morrisonpeople.com The musician addressed the comments — which inspired the "Rock Against Racism" movement in the late '70s — in 2018 after the release of his Life in 12 Bars documentary

And anti vax

Super-de-dupery xenophobic bigot.

Yes, so I've learned.

No one even has gotten into his views on marital rape or its lack of existence.

Also one of his biggest hits is about fucking George Harrison's wife while they were still married.

I sent this to a friend and he said "what the fuck?!" so I'm feeling less confident about society's ability to cope with misinformation than even before

I’m going to test this out w my friends.

I did think the 'Clapton/Crapped on' chorus was clever.
