Eric Clapton has revealed that his polarizing views on the coronavirus pandemic have strained his personal relationships.
“I’ve tried to reach out to fellow musicians,” the famed guitarist explained during an interview with YouTube channel Oracle Films. “I just don’t hear from them anymore. My phone doesn’t ring very often. I don’t get that many texts and emails any more. It’s quite noticeable.”
Clapton vocally challenged the U.K.’s COVID-related lockdown laws, even going so far as to release a single alongside Van Morrison condemning his government’s actions.

Hope he doesn’t back down like he did with his support for Enoch Powell.
They weren’t your friends to begin with
For the moment free speech exists. Tomorrow maybe not
Musicians are the biggest bunch of conformist sheep in the world now. They’d all be happy to provide musical accompaniment to the firing squads if the marxists asked them to.
It’s because you shot the sheriff.
Bob Marley shot the sheriff. Clapton only wishes he did.
F’em and feed ‘em fish guts!
Well it was admitted to in song LOL
He’s like Kanye West or JK Rowling. He may end up being ostracised but he’s rich enough not to care.
the devil’s house is united, Eric. you won’t find anymore help there.
Lord, keep moving him towards the Truth, the Way and the Life. Amen.
Look at the diminished texts, twitters, phone calls etc as a gift, Eric
Serenity now!!!
Hey Mr. Clapton, check out Altiyan Child’s 5 hour video expose on Hollywierd and cultural elite and that might give you a clue as to why.
Spoiler: Pop culture was always about taking the sheeples’ minds off of Jesus Christ and then killing them in a mass, systematic fashion.
Nothing changed. We were not enlightened. We became dumb as a box of hammers.

Hey Eric, they’re telling you something. It’s that they aren’t real friends.
I’ve lost a couple of old friends over this whole covid fiasco too. It’s their loss, not so much mine.
I’ve heard other musicians criticize Eric Clapton and Van Morrison for their opinions, views, and their song about the COVID plandemic. I was appalled by some of the comments and accusations simply because these two musicians wouldn’t fall into formation.
All of the other conformists think that they are individuals and rebels, but here are two that oppose and resist and they are vilified.
Outrageous.
Guitar Ping
Nobody knows you when you’re down and out...or NOT parroting the Party Line.
I wish we could “Change the World”, but for right now, Eric, I just wanna let you know that I have finally found a way to live, in the presence of the LORD.
Unlike the hypocrites in the music world, He will never forsake you.
Evidently, the love that the hypocrites lavished upon you all these years was “Bad Love” and not real at all.
I hope to see you in heaven someday, where there aren’t any tears.
Lockdowns were insane and counterproductive. Really appreciate those who speak out against them.
Hopefully have learned a lesson.
China will try again.
