Lyrics:
Hold on tight to your dream
Hold on tight to your dream
When you see your ship go sailing
When you feel your heart is breaking
Hold tight to your dream.
It's a long time to be gone
Time just rolls on and on
When you need a shoulder to cry on
When you get so sick of trying
Just hold tight to your dream
When you get so down that you can't get up
And you want so much but you're all out of luck
When you're so downhearted and misunderstood
Just over & over & over you could

Last year I had a bleed on the brain, which gave me a stroke and my left side paralyzed. My dream was to walk again, and be me again.this song inspired me so much when I was really bad. Now a year later, I am walking again, without a stick I might add, I held on tight to my dream, the words in this song were so apt for me, I thank you Mr Jeff Lynne.

At 68 years old, I have come to the obvious conclusion that Mr. Lynne and the rest of the ELO band members have helped shape me and most of my entire generation into the happiest and caring people ever!

@michaelmayhood4286 4 месяца назад

@@ghostdemon7936 Didn't mean to upset anyone with my comment about ELO and Mr. Lynne's influence on an "entitled" generation! I made a feeble attempt at describing the effect that Mr. Lynne had on me and probably other "entitled" concert goers upon seeing him and the band in Jacksonville, FL in 1973! That, of course, would have been 51 years ago! I'm going to go out on a limb here and make an inductive leap and infer, based on your overwhelming insight and readily apparent grasp of the lives of the 'entitled generation , that you might have missed something along your way! Don't be too harsh and critical of an old, "entitled", ELO fan!

The song went top ten in most countries, hitting no.1 in Spain and Switzerland, no.2 in Germany, no.4 in the UK, and number 10 on the US Billboard Hot 100, as well as no.2 on the US Billboard Top Tracks chart in September 1981.

+tigertiger642 maybe wishful thinking on my part but i was sure i heared George Harrison in the vocal mix there...

Hello everyone, it's just little old me, I'm doing fine now ,even though it will be six years this year ( 2021) that I had the stroke. I am leading a fully independent life, I have some problems, especially with fatigue, but I'm getting along ok. I have just read through all the comments and surprised people are still commenting on my first comment. I want to wish everyone health and happiness for always, and to remember to 'Hold on Tight to your dreams.

Hello 'just little old you' - like you, this track has unexpectedly reappeared in my head in the darkest of times and I've sought out the video to refresh my memory of the lyrics. Blessings to Jeff and the band for a legacy which continues to inspire.

ELO has always had a way of making me feel better on my worst days. This is my favorite though this is for all the days that I'm just about ready to quit and I can play this song and I feel so much better. And I can still get up and dance to this. Just can't get musically this anymore

@fabfour7397 2 года назад

The best feel-good song in 2021 with all we have been living through. Thank you Jeff Lynne's ELO for your fantastic music. Please Tour in 2022!!!

Very few Legends left...enjoy greatness while it lasts...From 1972 to 1986 Jeff Lynne's Electric Light Orchestra has had more top 40 hits than any other groups in the world. 50 years later they still play in sold-out Arenas and Stadiums. I just saw them this Summer of 2019 on the US and Canada Tour...( Best Concert of my life) All the reviews agree they are the best live act in the world and Jeff Lynne is a Music Genius. They are in the Rock Hall of Fame. Lynne is on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame and Birmingham Walk OF Fame. Jeff Lynne’s ELO won the Best Classic Rock Band plus Lynne won the best Song Writer award ( ASCAP ) 2019 for his fantastic contribution over the years. The Legends in the Music Industry call Jeff Lynne the best overall Musician ever and a Producer Extraordinaire. Long live Jeff Lynne’s ELO! Please Tour in 2020!

Lyrics: Hold on tight to your dream Hold on tight to your dream When you see your ship go sailing When you feel your heart is breaking Hold on tight to your dream It's a long time to be gone Times just roll on and on When you need a shoulder to cry on When you get sick of trying Hold on tight to your dream When you get so down that you can't get up And you want so much but you're all out of luck When you're so downhearted and misunderstood Just over and over and over you could Accroches-toi a ton reve Accroches-toi a ton reve Quand tu vois ton bateau partir Quand tu vois ton coeur se briser Accroches-toi a ton reve When you get so down that you can't get up And you want so much but you're all out of luck When you're so downhearted and misunderstood Just over and over and over you could Hold on tight to your dream Hold on tight to your dream When you see the shadows falling When you hear that cold wind calling Hold on tight to your dream Hold on tight to your dream Hold on tight to your dream

Loved the "ELO" since I first heard, "A Liv'in Thing". Still loving it in 2/2023, from Chatsworth, Calif., USA. Jeff Lynne is one special singer, songwriter...and a #1 performer! Making the "ELO", one special and unique...all-time-band, World Wide! Keep happy and well. With XOXO from a fan, since the 70's. Thanks for all the happiness, your great music, brings to my ears and soul.

Back in 2018-19 when I was out of shape mentally, I listened to this song everytime I’m alone. This song gave me hope, keeps me from crying and helped me find my way back. I regret I didn’t drop a single comment during those days so here I am! Thanks Jeff!💛💛💛

@amandragoran Год назад

I can remember dancing to this with my Mom, and a couple of other kids, and later in music classes, dissecting the different musicsl influences that Jeff mentioned in interviews, and how they related to the music he and the band made. This has always been my favorite band, since I watched them on an HBO special as a wee lad.

@classicrockfan8034 4 года назад

This song should be played on all the Radio stations and social media so people would feel much better.
