Song: Hold On Me
Reviewer: Joy Solomon
Positive Comments: This is a nice gentle dance song that gets better as it progresses. I like the guitar interlude and the harmonies. The message is simple and understandable, basic love, previous heartbreak and attachment. The repetition of you have got a hold on me is hooky and memorable. The singer’s voice is appealing. The singer is begging for a response it is bittersweet.
Constructive Comments: Maybe there is an undercurrent of an unhealthy relationship which might impact on some listeners. There are a lot of songs about heartache and heartbreak it is a hard genre to break into.It could end with a demand like, ‘Hold me now!’ to close the open emotions. In a way the repitition is the greatest asset giving shape to the song.
