Lyrics

Holding back the years
Thinking of the fear I've had so long
When somebody hears
Listen to the fear that's gone
Strangled by the wishes of pater
Hoping for the arms of mater
Get to me the sooner or later

I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on

Holding back the years
Chance for me to escape from all I've known
Holding back the tears
Cause nothing here has grown
I've wasted all my tears
Wasted all those years
And nothing had the chance to be good
Nothing ever could yeah, oh

I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
So tight

I've wasted all my tears
Wasted all of those years
And nothing had the chance to be good
Cause nothing ever could, oh, yeah
Oh...

I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
Holding, holding, holding

That's all I have today
It's all I have to say

This songs makes me think about a time in America when we all holding on together. Now with politics there is so much anger and hate. I want to go back. Please take me back! Love you all!

This man is 60 years old here and sounds flawless. He is the definition of a natural born singer.

I have never seen an audience so connected and in sync with a performer like this. Ever. Even the orchestra. It’s all so beautiful.

Mick Hucknall is the most underrated vocalist, and he’s pretty highly rated already

Can you imagine? One song written when he was a teenager should prove to be so good, so solid and so, so dear to people that they can sing every lyric, every word, on time and in time. Better yet, to stand up there, be silent and let the crowd carry the tune - I can only imagine. How glorious.

A performer with incredible talent and shows respect for his audience by wearing a tuxedo. Where did those days go???

To only stand and sing with nothing elaborate around you is pure talent! No dancing, acrobatics etc, just a beautiful voice! That's enough to entertain people!

No autotune, no stupid costumes, no half naked women, no smartphones in the air, people actually dancing and singing to God given talent.

The best thing about learning English is to cry on the sounds that you loved before but now hits into your soul.

Imagine the tingling mick would have felt when the audience sang back.. he wrote that piece at 17 years old! His voice is like gold.

You know when you see a video of a singer doing a song they first recorded 35 years ago and they struggle to hit the high notes because their voice is worn with age?
THIS AIN'T ONE OF THOSE VIDEOS!
33 years on and Mick hasn't lost even the slightest bit of vocal range. His voice is still as pure and unique as ever. Truly one of the greatest voices of our time.

His voice is definitely holding back the years. Still an amazing voice.

How is it possible that his voice is even richer and stronger than it was years ago when this song came out. This transports me to another place!

Unbelievable that Mick sounds this good not only live, but 33 years after the original recording. Absolutely incredible. Thank you for sharing.
