In an interview with Sue Lawley in 1992, Clapton said of the song, "There is a song that I've written for a movie, but in actual fact it was in the back of my head but it didn't really have a reason for being until I was scoring this movie which I did a little while ago and then it sort of had a reason to be . And it is a little ambiguous because it could be taken to be about Conor but it also is meant to be part of the film ." Conor, Clapton's four - year - old son, fell from a window of a 53rd - floor New York apartment owned by his mother's friend on March 20, 1991 . Clapton arrived at the apartment shortly after the accident . </P> <P> The song was Clapton's best - selling single in the United States and reached number two on the Billboard Hot 100 . It won three Grammy Awards for Best Pop Vocal Performance, Male, Song of the Year, and Record of the Year . In 2004, Rolling Stone ranked "Tears in Heaven" 362nd on the magazine's list of "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time". </P>
