  • I think it is "Fighting my history" not Finding it.... I could be wrong.

  • LOVE this song, and Holes film + book. Great to see I'm not the only one xD

  • I want the old version *___* not the soundtrack version...

  • i love the book and the movie

  • @mrcoolrobot99 Same its the best

  • Omg I was wondering what that song in the book was for, so I looked up the 1st part "if only" and I got the best result! Lol

  • i read the books :D and saw the movies

  • @scourgeandmaniclover same here i love them bothe too

  • was this written for holes, or was it already written? i mean if it was already written thats creepy lol

  • the book holes brought me here

  • badass:D

  • *sings passionately* if only if only the woodpecker SIGHS, the bark of the TREES was as SOFT as the SKIES…. ^_^

  • I absoblutely love this song

  • I'm guessing this song was made directly for holes. No that's a stupid idea

  • reminds me of my best friend from school....

    i miss her....

  • @Parkkyyy it's hard aye my friend moved school we were mad friends never saw her again..

  • my bird that i had for 7 years died and i sang this song to my self...

  • That's probably because it's FROM Holes, if you watch the credits.

  • omg, i just noticed the song goes EXACTLY with holes...

  • Always one of my favorite poems. Beautiful song.

  • Its rare for a movie to be as good as the book but this one surprised me, amazing movie and book. I love this song too

  • Thumbs up if you think this is actual music, not that rap shit

  • @TehGhanzi Shut the hell up.

  • @DJSkinnyHo You mad bro?

  • @TehGhanzi You're an idiot. No one cares what music you hate. Shut the hell up and listen to the video. Troll somewhere else, there's a reason you got ZERO thumbs up. Whore.

  • Lyrics suck.

  • I actually made up my own melody to If Only when I read Holes and was, in spite of myself, quite surprised to find out that the official version was different.

  • umm hey can anyone tell me wher to download this song? I am a giant fan of the film holes and I am an even bigger fan of this song! I really want to download this song to my ipod if possible, so if anyone knows wher to download this song (without my computer getting infected!!! :D) pleze reply.

  • @TheSocalhannah go to vid2mp3.com

  • @TheSocalhannah If you want a definite download pm me on youtube and I can give you a download link for just this without anything else needed.

  • So good - im trying to find something for my holes reading literiture - which is holes.

  • Great song! but i wish he sang the whole thing from the book not just a part of it :P but it is a good song none the less

  • its like i tht you dont know wht hes saying

  • the movie holes brought me here, i like this song, its good,love this song!!!!

  • dang this song is loud i was just going throught my favorites then this came up and boom!!!

  • The lyrics are WAAAAAAAAAAY wrong.

  • @happygurl42 okay first of all, the author of the book is a guy, Louis sachar, who also wrote sideways stories from wayside school, and secondly, the book came FIRST. then Disney made a movie and fictionplane based the song on kissin kate and the main character(s) of the book. Honestly how have you not at least heard of it??

  • It's not different in the book, if you actually understood the book then:

    There is 2 versions of this song, the translated version that Stanley Yelnats learned, which was a translation from his mother.

    There is the version that 'Zero' neared, which was the real version since he knew it non-translated (therefore more accurate

  • OMG 666 likes this!!!! lol

    

  • when holidays starts my friends won't believe what i say and the song goes right with the book holes! the author must of got her idea from this song! ;D listen to the song stay calm do not get angry at brother and sister...... XD

  • @happygurl42 the author is a guy,this song was made for holes,THE MOVIE.

  • Comment removed

  • @theshredderwolf whoops. i copied it from somewhere over the raibo– internet

  • this song so good

  • I liked when Stanley Yelnats I was singing it, while letting the pig drink.

  • @rissa588

    It was actually Elya Yelnats who sang it to the pig in the book

  • fantastic song, and great movie as well

  • 0:00

  • This is such a beautiful song, and the way he sings it =) i always cry at the "if only" part =) When i listen to it, it just brings back memories =)

  • sooooooo sad and touching

  • I remember singing this song, only the "if only" part, ever since I read Holes. The movie was amazing too.

  • where can I download this song?

  • I like the way they sing it in the movie better

  • holes was one of my fave movies

    

  • i just want to know, what is next, i read the book, and it has about 4 more lines, it was like:

    if only if only the woodpecker sighs,

    the bark on the tree was as soft as the skies,

    and the wolf waits below hungry and lonley,

    he cries to the mo-oo-n if only if only,

    if only if only the moon would reply... (i dont know the rest, i trying to find out, if u know please tell me)

  • @ninjajake21

    It goes that way:

    If only, if only," the woodpecker sighs,

    "The bark on this tree were as soft as the skies."

    While the wolf waits below, hungry and lonely,

    Crying out to the moon, "If only, if only."

    "If only, if only." The moon speaks no reply

    Reflecting the sun and all that's gone by.

    Be strong, my weary wolf, turn around boldly.

    Fly high, my baby bird, my angel, my only.

  • @WhisperOfTheNight lol, after i said the comment, i found it on yahoo lol but ty anyway lol

  • @ninjajake21

    Sometimes you don't get all the comments in chronological order, my friend

  • @WhisperOfTheNight i was looking for that i knew it was different in the book!

  • @WhisperOfTheNight kool improv on the 2nd verse, :)

  • This song howls to me from beyond a great locked door. The key is the soul.

  • @Mashuga31 Deep..

  • Neh... not only can you Not find this on iTunes, but Fiction Plane does not have this song on any of their current CD's. The only place you can find this song is here, and on the movie CD.

  • Do you know where I can find a download of this song?

  • I LOVE DIS SONG! ITS THE BSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    does anyone know the singer who sings the song?

  • @Dixichick1001 It's says it in the description. Fiction Plane~

  • @mydadthe That's the band, not the name of the singer..

  • he's singing about the curse int he movie holes how madam zeronie and her past insestors and the one kid are tied and only the boy can break the curse by caring hector zeronie "zero" up gods thumb a mountain shaped as a thumb and on the mountain theres a river with water purer then snow read the book you'll understand

  • @sugarqueen23 or watche the movie lol

  • love the song

    isn't it only the chorus in the movie??

  • @LittlestPetshops4Eva The 'hole' song is to do with the movie/book. The chorus is a littel rhyme that has to do with one of the back story's.

  • I've decided to get the chorus of this song down my arm :)

  • if only if only my xbox didnt die

  • omg.. this song isn't on iTunes.. And Fiction Plane is one of the few artist i only buy from lol

  • @360MiXEr just because they dislike the song it doesnt mean they are haters. everybody has their own opinion. respect theirs

  • I'm so happy I found this !!!!!! <3

  • Comment removed

  • @contortionistgurl The rest of the song is about Holes too...If you would just listen to the lyrics. For example- "The old man's been stealing" Stanly's no-good-dirty-rotten-big-steal­ing-great-great-Grandfather. "We have to give in to a hundred year curse"- Stanly's family has been cursed for 100 years. "Blisters and blood and the sun makes you blind" Blisters and cuts from digging and the bright dessert sun.

  • @livebyvideogames Thank-you someone seems to pay attention to the book/film. sorry I know it's not that important but have to say it. it's 'no-good-dirty-rotten-Pig-stea­ling-great-great-grandfather.'

  • LOVE

  • if i got a tattoo, it would be "if only if only the woodpecker sighs, the bark on the tree was as soft as the skies. as the wolf waits below, hungry and lonely, he cries to the moon, if only if only."

  • same! :D

  • where can i get this song? what album is it on? i cant find it anywhere.

  • Its from the movie Holes, which is based off of a book in the same name.

  • The Holes soundtrack is going to be your friend...

  • LOL!! I heard it, too!!

  • HAHA!!

  • Some of the lyrics are wrong.

  • Oi, don't thumbs down me for the truth, sheesh... Just lettin' people know...

    EXAMPLES:

    It should be:

    "Chasin' the skirt of a beautiful wife"

    "I am a sword but I find myself blunt"

    "I am no blade I'm more like a feather"

  • Kinda sad how bad he messed up those parts :-P

  • @T2Terminator You happen to be correct, my friend.

  • @T2Terminator Don't sweat it, I thumbs uped you, I hate it when people don't bother getting the lyrics of good or great songs wrong.

  • @T2Terminator What did you see?

  • I mean say.

  • @T2Terminator It's good to know that it is actually; "I am no blade I'm more like a feather"

    Because well, going by what these lyrics said actually made my like the song less, because the lyrics weren't as good as I thought they were.

    But turns out, they're as awesome as I thought.

  • i love da movie and dis song :D

  • This song is so lovely

  • is this on itunes cus i have been looking for it everywhere

  • Nope, It is one of the dozens of songs I want that isn't on itunes

  • I think the song was written for the movie becauseif you read the lyrics, it basically tells about the movie, especially in the first verse. 

    "Hundred Year curse"

    "Sweating the sun like were digging a grave, dig deep enough and our fortune is saved"

  • obviously it was made for the movie. the chorus is the song in the movie. it was written in the book too. its not like the author copied the song

  • umm yes, this is what I said. I was answering someones question there buddy

  • did they write this song for the movie or did disney find this song for the movie

  • I think It was a song frist and then when the book was writting they quoted it IDK though

  • i love the movie its the best diney thing ever its the best

  • I found the book better than the movie, but both were pretty amazing! Hurray for English class. ^^

  • this guy is pretty good idk wat u're takin about

    lets see if u can do better!!

    if not than keep ur opinions to urself if u cant back it up!!

  • i love this song, for my seet 16 b-day my dad and i did a father daughter dance to this. and it will be the same on my wedding day :)

    Be Respectful

    -Bridget

  • this is my favorite song
