I’m thinking of Eddie Money, Baby Hold On To Me. We’ve got to hold on in these hard times.
Baby Hold On is a song written by Eddie Money and guitarist Jimmy Lyon. It was released in 1977 as the first single from Money’s debut album Eddie Money. The song reached number 11 on the billboard Hot 100. The song was a big success, and has been considered one of Eddie Money’s most famous songs. It still gets frequent airplay on classic rock and adult contemporary radio stations.
There was something about the song that caught my ear the first time I heard it. I think it was the beginning of the song with the guitar, and the words, Baby Hold On To Me. I loved the background vocalist in the break of the song. They sounded like a beautiful choir. It’s a song that just holds my attention all the way to the end, and I never get tired of listening. The song has been in my head for many years.
