We have all cried at Eric Clapton’s “Tears In Heaven.” That’s a fact and we all know the story behind it, but a tale we rarely hear about his Clapton’s own childhood. Sounding like a M. Night Shyamalan movie with a major twist, Clapton grew up thinking his grandparents were his parents. Which, why wouldn’t he?
