Simply Red singing, "Holding Back The Years," from their 1985 debut album, "Picture Book." What a voice lead singer Mick Hucknall has! :)
I wanted to say, this video gets so many views and comments that it's hard for me to reply back to all the comments...but I wanted to thank all those that do comment...and I'm glad you enjoy this song and video...it's always been a favorite of mine too! :))
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

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

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

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

  • Only Fools and Horses

  • This song expresses any childhood trauma aftermath so well. Funny thing is this has always been kind of a trigger for me, because it came out around the time I was raped and molested. I'd always subconsciously avoided it, and then one day I just decided to expose myself to it. I was struck by the shear irony of the lyrics.
