Colin Hay - Hold Me

[ruffian1868]

Always loved this song, and for some reason today it sounds slightly Peter Gabriel(ish) ?

[MrGokui]

awesome song !!!

[drivingmissdaisy]

See him live... Did last night... He is hilarious... Great storyteller!

[rdcranium]

Worst video ever.

Like the song, though,

[kevinmaze]

Thank you so much for posting this!! This was one of my favorite post-Men songs, and the only version that was on here had poor video and audio. Awesome!

[VitorVitoriaBaia]

Sia Furler's uncle? Great!

[onehundredstocks]

Excellent Song And Video From Circa 1987. Colin Hays First Solo Album After MAW disbanded. After Seeing This Video, I Wonder If Colin Had Practiced The Martial Arts?

[walker44444]

God, its like a bad 'Fish' from Marillion - and he was mighty bad.

[bitmasala]

i love this video...great job

[walker44444]

fukn shite.

[chameleonfrog1]

@walker44444 you couldn't come anywhere close...even if your life depended on it. Keep your ignorant comments to yourself

[walker44444]

Ha ha

ooooh, very touchy aren't we. How the hell would you know what musical talents I may or may not have? Now shut it ya tosser.

Song is still fukn shite.

[Crazybenjiwoo]

@walker44444

take the song for what it is and leave...

its an 80's classic with a great start - upto 1 min in its great then goes all generic...

not colins best by any means... but still better then most

[chameleonfrog1]

Yeah, I was looking for Men at Work & have since only recently discovered Colin Hay who overwhelms me with all these fabulous songs. The chorus is very catchy to this song. As for the video, I like it. He's just having a bit of frivolous fun. The words aren't deep & meaningful to this one so he can let loose & have some fun. Why not? Musicians & artists can do things we plebs can't do lol.

[parksy010101]

Very good song. Thanks for the upload.

[erniehead]

Creepiest smile ever!!!

The bad CG head makes him look like a chimpanzee

BTW what is that background? African? Aborginie? Some Paul Simon-Graceland ripoff?

[parksy010101]

@erniehead Peter Gabriel?

[wileypayote]

I never heard this song before, must a been like 300 on the billboard charts back then.

[wzx33]

decent song but wow this video can come across as creepy and/or just odd.

[wzx33]

@wzx33

isn't this is the kind of video that someone does when they have lost a bet?

[91epidemic]

@wzx33 lmao ........yeah it is kinda odd / creepy lol and decent

[CartmanFirst]

it's a real classic, I remember 1987.-))))

[superpursuit2007]

been looking for this for ages . brilliant.fijian harmony makes it

[tyu198]

collins austrail-scottish

makes for a great singing voice !

[220891nb]

great musician. just started getting into him, funnily enough because of scrubs XD

[RandomLife37]

@220891nb hahaha same:O

[spstreeter]

I like this song and this album but this video is crazy. Colin is still cranking out the albums...his latest cd "American Sunshine" is incredible. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

[messiahofdesire]

BRILLIANT!!! Good taste!

[germanfrancie]

When did Colin Hay turn into John Waite?

[pitt82marino]

Great song, thanks for posting it!

[jimbailey69]

Great little song which would probably have been a hit had it been a Men At Work release. This one only reached #99 on Billboard in 1987. "Looking For Jack" is a good album, though.

[Crazybenjiwoo]

@jimbailey69 the best fish slip through the net ;)

[jimbailey69]

Air Supply is crappy wimp-rock. Men At Work had some grit.

[njj37]

wack in a good way -.-

[brendakaye34]

I beg to differ...i think the video and song are both awesome...

[njj37]

chorographie is wack

[NJpanther05]

how old is this?

[halnwolf]

1987, came off his solo album "Looking for Jack"

[ScottHardyv1]

1987

[scifihunnybunny]

Haven't heard this song in years....

Thanks for posting.

[lillygirloflove]

I love this song but honestly the vid scares me. lol drill team??

[saturnhexagon]

CJH lives on, keep singing Colin!

[mkinstlinger]

Transcendental Highway is a great one..

[fallenwillrise]

now way! there was a video to this???!!!

looking for jack was a underrated album. great introductory album for fans of menatwork that want to move on to colin hays solo work!

[rafaelpompeu1]

indeed it is.

I think 1994's "Topanga" and his latest "Are You Lookin' At Me?" are also very good choice to start knowing his solo work.

[clutch0311]

I loved Men At Work, and as soon as this came out, I went out and bought the cassette. Yes, cassette. I could only hope to find this on CD now... What a great album it was! Not a bad track.. Thanks for posting!!!

[mrkranen]

Someone on E Bay probably has this one. I think thats how I got the CD

[Airsupplyband]

Men at work is Australia's rubbish band! Air Supply is still the best!

[clutch0311]

Oh, please. Bubble gum garbage. Midnight Oil, Icehouse, Mental as Anything, Real Life, AC/DC, and even The Wiggles and INXS are far better Aussie representatives...

[negait]

He's Scottish

[clutch0311]

Well, yes. Moved to Austrailia at 14. My apologies for pushing Men At Work's Austrailian label on him. SInce he is now solo, I should consider him a Scottish artist. Or at the very least a Scottish-Autrailian artist living in California....

[negait]

Still awesome though. Not sure about this film clip and the Karate moves!

[Porrohman10]

wow this is freaky.

[uncleavi2002]

I saw him in Concert a couple of years ago and he is so funny!

A great show

[dbwindhorst]

Had the cassette, "Looking for Jack." Thanks, nice memories.

[meeeee1968]

such a great song, always loved this one, his voice goes off in this wild song !!!!

[kirk7524875248]

Inspiring song!

[Blaze1071]

I remember seeing it a couple of times on MTV back in about 87. I remember looking for the album and not being able to find it. The video was well done, like so many of the era.

[visualdyes]

Don't think I'd ever seen this one; was this his first solo video. It is definitely interesting!
