Don't miss it. Re live it..I made a point in life despite my main carreer, I've invested a small fortune in my ever growing sound system to do shows, alot for free for the love of how music shapes lives..And I'm not some average boring DJ..I create a party..And the likes of Bieber and swift, I'll never play an event that requires that..
Please see if the Totally Tubular 80's concert is in you area the summer of 2024. Attended in Detroit July 26, the Thompson Twins were one of the set acts and was truly a highly of the event. This song is still earworming my brain this morning...all the Thomson twin selections are. Have a great Summer.
Listening 🎧 to this in this new year 2024. Almost 40 years later and this song is still so damn powerful and inspiring and returns me back to the 80s a decade I can never go back to but will cherish all the rest of my days.👍❤️
I’m listening to this gem in August 2024! I was there when the Thompson Twins released this track in the eighties. I still have the memories of listening to this song on the radio and feeling sheer joy. We were so blessed to be teens in the eighties and have amazing artists and the BEST tunes….❤❤❤
@@suzannenelson919 I don’t have anything against anyone who believes in god, but that’s not what the song was about. That’s all I was saying. As far as calming down is concerned- maybe you should take your own advice.
Ahhh the 80s…Such a happier time. When music was fun, hair was crazy and everyday was literally like dressing up for Halloween! Everything was so much brighter. When we missed yesterday, didn’t want today to end and lived for tomorrow. I wish so much that the newer gens could feel that joy.
I feel you. You said it all. ❤80s kid here too. Things were just good. Wholesome. Fun. Light. 😢 2024 perversion sick +.¥>, And hey ! We never wondered what gender we were.
Our generation was so lucky to have grown up on 80's music. Yes, the videos were cheesie but they were a new concept. It really was a great time to see the evolution of modern music and be there when these songs were standard radio play, and jukebox tunes to listen to for a dime! ♥️
Such an 80’s sound. I miss these days so much. I was 14 when this was a hit, not a child but not an adult, a really wonderful time in my life. I loved the Thompson Twins, I wore out my cassette tape of Into The Gap and had to buy another.
Agreed. Saw that show last night in Denver. Thompson Twins caught me off guard. I’ve always liked them, but now I like them even more. This song was my favorite of the night. I went for Dolby.
I heard this song today in the supermarket and it brought me right back to the 80’s. What a time to be alive as a kid. I’d do anything to go back and stay there.
Such an emotive song. Beautiful lyrics and Tom’s voice is just sublime. There’s something so romantic and haunting about this song. Loved it in the 80s and still love it now ❤
Funny……….. when this came out I didn’t pay too much attention because I was into more heavy music. But now that the time has passed and the music path was destroyed I have to admit that those kind of instrumentation are gone long ago. The humans are easily for being bored and somebody decided to change everything, now this is the RESULT. And nothing to do with that because the today’s society doesn’t have imagination, creativity to bring the golden decade back to life. I tried really hard to put my sons into the 80’s music, they learned a lot but………. they want to remain in the comfort modern music All of us are suffering in one way or the other.
Here enjoying a glass of wine and the memories of being a teenager in the late 70s into the 80s. The best music!! The best times of my life no regrets!!
This old life seemed much too long Little point in going on I couldn't think of what to say Words just vanished in a haze I was feeling cold and tired Yeah, kinda sad and uninspired When it almost seemed too much I see your face and sense the grace And feel the magic in your touch Oh, lay your hands Lay your hands on me Oh, lay your hands (woo hoo) Oh, lay your hands Oh, lay your hands on me Oh, lay your hands Back and forth across the sea I have chased so many dreams But I have never felt the grace That I have felt in your embrace I was tired and I was cold Yeah, with a hunger in my soul When it almost seemed too much I see your face and sense the grace And feel the magic of your touch Oh, lay your hands Oh, lay your hands on me Lay your hands, woo hoo Oh, lay your hands Oh, lay your hands on me Oh, lay your hands, oooh You know you make me feel so good Yeah, like I never ever thought I would You know you make me feel so strong And now our laughter just goes on and on (and on) So c'mon lay your hands on me 'Cause close to you Is where I really wanna be And if it ever gets too much I see your face and sense the grace And feel the magic in our touch Oh, lay your hands Lay your hands on me Oh, lay your hands (Woo hoo) Oh, lay your hands Oh, lay your hands on me Oh, lay your hands Ooh, lay your hands Oh, lay your hands Oh, lay your hands on me Oh, lay your hands (Woo hoo) Oh, lay your hands Oh, lay your hands on me Oh, lay your hands Oh, lay your hands on me Oh, lay your hands
@@Novastar.SaberCombat Yes but it was not permanent . The euphoria while lasted was wonderful but very painful when it ended.The bottom line is that I am not sure if the euphoria was worth the price.
I really prefer this original British version of this song.… They re-recorded it for the US, including gospel singers, possibly to justify having the different video etc.…. Most people seem to prefer that version, but for me this version just seems to groove better and sound more flowing… The American version to me seems to be a little bit too choppy and staccato, while this version seems to appeal to me more and just makes me feel better.…. For some reason if you call this song up on almost any streaming service you get the American version usually……. Anyway, love it!
Oh I didn’t know there were 2 different versions. I fell in love with this one years ago, but didn’t jive with the American version. This one is just 👌🫶🙌
People laugh at me because i still listen to music from the 70's and 80's i tell then this didn't have People killing each other just fun and have a good time
The "laying of hands" is a method of healing that has been with us for centuries. It's been proven time and time again. This sound reflects the act just beautifully.
I got the luck to buy the original 80s Thompson Twins' lp about four days ago. Even of I really enjoyed this tune back in the days, now I have become absolutely obsessed about it!!! Everything works so right: the killer bass, voices, lyrics, music, everything. We were so lucky to be teenagers in that decade, the best era in pop music, ever.
I'll be right over! There's several people that are gone that I need to hug one more time. And perhaps dance with while listening to some of our favorite mix tapes.
I suggest that he could look same as what we see here, 2023s only time since and now, would be great see that, rust haired coloration, with same jacket and all, where are the 2 others? Basist and Xylophonist? I was 15 in 85, we are lucky to have lived times far away behind the actual time today. Lot of changes! Thx to you Tom! Wonderfull voice and piano, and all, so wonderfull.
I was only 15 years old, living in Istanbul when this song came out. Their music always puts a smile on my face and takes me back to the careless days of the childhood.
I have seen Tom Bailey twice at rewind, he is such a great artist and of course, this song takes me right back to the 80s. Fantastic tune along with Doctor Doctor!
oh my .... my sudden nostalgic attack led me to this wonderful, evergreen classic. Still remains powerful and relevant to me until now... i couldn't believe it... so damn good!

![Thompson Twins - Hold Me Now (Official Video) [4K Remaster]](/img/tr.png)
We don't search for songs - we search for memories !! One of the best 80's songs. Still sounds great in 2023. Timeless.
Agree.. One of 80s best
So true ❤
You nailed it!
Powerful and correct statement !!
Exactly what I’m doing tonight! Searching for memories ♥️ Love this song
Boy do I miss the 80's. What a time to be alive. Seems like everything went to hell in a hand basket after that.
Is the same for all’ Of us that was yung in that age … from Ireland to italy…fantastic age
It was SO FUN!!
People seemed so much more at ease then. Most got along. There was little division. Good times
Don't miss it. Re live it..I made a point in life despite my main carreer, I've invested a small fortune in my ever growing sound system to do shows, alot for free for the love of how music shapes lives..And I'm not some average boring DJ..I create a party..And the likes of Bieber and swift, I'll never play an event that requires that..
Those were the best times awesome era with lots of amazing music.! Miss those times too.!😢
Another example of fantastic music from the 80s.
This band takes you back to the 80s in a very powerfull way.
omg the 80s. the early 80s had some great music, the new romantics and new wave. miss those summers, the aussies playing the windies and this music.
I agree. This song in particular captures the 80’s completely and with a spiritual feel to it.
@@angelathompson4304 the best pop bands in 80s where from uk still are
Is there anything better than the rediscovery of '80s songs? I had completely forgotten about this one! Awesome!
Yes. Never forgetting them. I still listen to them every day.
Please see if the Totally Tubular 80's concert is in you area the summer of 2024. Attended in Detroit July 26, the Thompson Twins were one of the set acts and was truly a highly of the event.

@@tubedude26666 Agreed, every now and then an 80's song will pop up, and I catch myself saying "oh....I forgot about this one"

September. TH-cam thought I should listen to it 😂. Which is fine by mine.
Yessss! I was a teenager in the 80's omg the memories
@@heebjeeb2009 good times
This 1985 Thompson Twins song was super magnificent!!
I was a teenager in the 80’s. Best years of my life.
I wholeheartedly agree. I graduated from High School in 1989. A lot of positive memories.
They are singing about God. I never saw it until a couple of months ago. Lately I play this in my head constantly!
No they are not. It’s a love song about wanting to be close to another human being.
@@patrickwoods2213 same thing!
@@imnotabiologist9652Ok…..? If that works for you I’m cool with it
@@patrickwoods2213 Gee Patrick, Calm down. You have something against God? This song can mean different things to different people.
@@suzannenelson919 I don’t have anything against anyone who believes in god, but that’s not what the song was about. That’s all I was saying. As far as calming down is concerned- maybe you should take your own advice.
We were blessed, those of us who lived to hear the 70 80 and 90s
My idea t shirts of them
Siempre así será .. bendecidos por es banda!!
yes we were. Just thinking the same listening to this song that's taking me back to Junior High School.
Ahhh the 80s…Such a happier time. When music was fun, hair was crazy and everyday was literally like dressing up for Halloween! Everything was so much brighter. When we missed yesterday, didn’t want today to end and lived for tomorrow. I wish so much that the newer gens could feel that joy.
I feel you.
You said it all.
❤80s kid here too.
Things were just good.
Wholesome.
Fun.
Light.
😢 2024 perversion sick +.¥>,
And hey ! We never wondered what gender we were.
This group is very much underrated.

I want my M TV 📺 ☝️😎
Not all the videos were "cheesie."
Now that videos are effectively dead, showcases like this are even more important. Wonderful!
This is a good video though. Just the band
Such purity.
When I listen to Thompson Twins, I’m immediately a child again.
One thing I should tell you is
er
excuse me for one second
Whoever liked my comment and then unliked it: be aware. I don't take that lightly.
@@heddalee is that supposed to mean something!?
Con esta canción comencé a prender el inglés ❤ I love Thompson twins
Yes, I wore that style of everything back then. Good Memories
The 80s were so freaking great. I was so fortunate to be starting my 20s when the 80s hit.
Me too! Great times!
i was just a kid..but still remember countdown, a music show here in australia and these amazing hits.
Right..there's NO Comparison today! Everything is so lame as such...
@@ToddhaleyThe1 We got to listen to such great music like the Thompson Twins along the way.
@@jimmyj422 yep 💯 Thompson Twins & so many other groups...so many 1 hit wonders
For me...Their best song...out of many
One of the great songs of the 80s. Can anybody write a song like this today?
Hardly, no soul in today’s song 🎵 writers. My favorite TT song. Cheers 🥂
No and if they could they couldn't sing it properly
I seriously doubt it. They don't write stuff like this anymore.
This band was so freaking talented. So melodic and wonderful vocals.
Together this is mine and my husband's favorite song.
(Virtually) everything Nile Rogers touches is magical.
This song should be right up there with ageless 80s like, Toto’s Africa, AHA’s Take on Me and Tears for Fears Everybody Wants to Rule the World.
Admit it - you miss Martha Quinn introducing all these great hits/bands, and all the trivia she used to include
Yes but fortunately we recorded a lot of those videos back then and later transferred them to DVD and can still watch now.
Yea I do miss those days.
I think if it wasn't for MTV I don't think most of the 80's bands would be as well known.
My second favorite Twins song next to "Hold Me Now". They had their own style. What '80s memories are made of.
They were an awesome band
when music mattered...BRILLANT!
I was in junior high 1984. . loved Thompson Twins & Culture Club 😊
Such an 80’s sound. I miss these days so much. I was 14 when this was a hit, not a child but not an adult, a really wonderful time in my life. I loved the Thompson Twins, I wore out my cassette tape of Into The Gap and had to buy another.
I'm so fortunate to have had my musical awakening in the magical 80's.
I had the 80's hands laid on me 👍
I'm doing an 80's thing today. Can't do that without including the Thompson Twins!
I love the 80's music
We were at the Totally Tubular 80s concert in the Los Angeles region on Saturday, June 29th. Out of about eight bands, Thompson Twins were the best.
Agreed. Saw that show last night in Denver. Thompson Twins caught me off guard. I’ve always liked them, but now I like them even more. This song was my favorite of the night. I went for Dolby.
Saw Thompson Twins Tom Bailey 2 months ago - they played this song. Beautiful. This song is almost spiritual in its joy.
The fave, that bass line, just everything. It's one of my faves to drive with. xox
I heard this song today in the supermarket and it brought me right back to the 80’s. What a time to be alive as a kid. I’d do anything to go back and stay there.
80s America will be the most popular time-machine destination 🤙🏼 the music is the beacon to better days
Very special Drummer and Piano player in this song/video...
They seem very elegant.
This was my fashion back when. I love these oversized shirts. Bring back this fashion
I know I totally love that fashion of the 80's
An awesome classic I haven't heard for years!
Omg I absolutely love this song and the nostalgia of the 80s
Omg!! Me too ❤
This is a moment in time and a song for the ages.
Such an emotive song. Beautiful lyrics and Tom’s voice is just sublime. There’s something so romantic and haunting about this song. Loved it in the 80s and still love it now ❤
Just the best decade ever for pop, metal rock.
Everyone looking there best here… love the Pearls.. I feel like this was the song they went out with a bang… with all 3 members
THE BEST - this AND Doctor Doctor!!! Good Times!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩
My numbers one and two, also
That time was great. Let's go back
Nothing like Thompson Twins -wanted to go back in time where true love, humanity & peace prevails!
Total chills. I love this song.
Funny……….. when this came out I didn’t pay too much attention because I was into more heavy music. But now that the time has passed and the music path was destroyed I have to admit that those kind of instrumentation are gone long ago.

Chills.....tears....and eventually utter joy...beautiful song.
Here enjoying a glass of wine and the memories of being a teenager in the late 70s into the 80s. The best music!! The best times of my life no regrets!!
This has been stuck in my head for DAYS! In a good way....❤❤❤❤❤
Beautiful!😊❤
80s into early 90s what a time for music/movies and tv. Will never get any better
One of the best
This old life seemed much too long
Little point in going on
I couldn't think of what to say
Words just vanished in a haze
I was feeling cold and tired
Yeah, kinda sad and uninspired
When it almost seemed too much
I see your face and sense the grace
And feel the magic in your touch
Oh, lay your hands
Lay your hands on me
Oh, lay your hands (woo hoo)
Oh, lay your hands
Oh, lay your hands on me
Oh, lay your hands
Back and forth across the sea
I have chased so many dreams
But I have never felt the grace
That I have felt in your embrace
I was tired and I was cold
Yeah, with a hunger in my soul
When it almost seemed too much
I see your face and sense the grace
And feel the magic of your touch
Oh, lay your hands
Oh, lay your hands on me
Lay your hands, woo hoo
Oh, lay your hands
Oh, lay your hands on me
Oh, lay your hands, oooh
You know you make me feel so good
Yeah, like I never ever thought I would
You know you make me feel so strong
And now our laughter just goes on and on (and on)
So c'mon lay your hands on me
'Cause close to you
Is where I really wanna be
And if it ever gets too much
I see your face and sense the grace
And feel the magic in our touch
Oh, lay your hands
Lay your hands on me
Oh, lay your hands (Woo hoo)
Oh, lay your hands
Oh, lay your hands on me
Oh, lay your hands
Ooh, lay your hands
Oh, lay your hands
Oh, lay your hands on me
Oh, lay your hands (Woo hoo)
Oh, lay your hands
Oh, lay your hands on me
Oh, lay your hands
Oh, lay your hands on me
Oh, lay your hands
Have you ever met someone who did that for you?
😓
U did great with the lyrics

One of the best starts to a song

This song is so 80s that Molly Ringwald snuck in to play the piano @2:22
Oh yeah that's true I was thinking the same thing
Beautiful. Did not think anything else could come close to Hold Me Now
The "laying of hands" is a method of healing that has been with us for centuries. It's been proven time and time again. This sound reflects the act just beautifully.
a beautiful observation i never thought of that.
Its an ancient Christian tradition that goes back to the time of Christ Jesus.
Que pureza,mágica, alucinante que privilegio haber crecido con estás joyas.

Very underrated song
I remember this band fondly for their use of sequencers and exotic percussive effects.
🎸wooh-ooh-ooh-oohh 😊🥰 // Thanks for playing!
My favourite Thompson Twins track!🎸
Love this song so many memories
Hello. Super song. Thank you.
...Oooo, Och jak miło wrócić w takim klimacie do lat'80. Liderzy New Romantic przez lata.
I'm just finishing off my time machine, I'm off back to the 80's...
I'll l get some cassettes to play along the way,, who's coming?
👍😎
I'll be right over! There's several people that are gone that I need to hug one more time. And perhaps dance with while listening to some of our favorite mix tapes.
Save a seat for me!
Take me along!
Beam me up, Scotty!!!
😁
I saw them last night for the tubular festival this song hit me right in the face in the perfect way, and I definitely lost my voice ❤🤘
Just saw them tonight at Tubular Fest! Song definitely hits in the feels.
I suggest that he could look same as what we see here, 2023s only time since and now, would be great see that, rust haired coloration, with same jacket and all, where are the 2 others? Basist and Xylophonist?
I was 15 in 85, we are lucky to have lived times far away behind the actual time today.
Lot of changes!
Thx to you Tom!
Wonderfull voice and piano, and all, so wonderfull.
Got to see them in concert in Austin, Texas incredible show.
Cool 80s music everybody loved back then. The Thompson Twins.
This is an under-rated song. Best of the 80s, but really a great tune.
Cuánta historia con esta serie y su música..,. gracias 🙋
Great tune. Brings back a lot of memories.
Bravo Thomson Twins !!!!! sublime this song❤❤❤❤
Epic 80's cool.
Loved seeing you in Edinburgh,Queens Hall at the weekend and meeting you with the VIP tickets,Tom. This is the best Thompson Twins song 💖
This song its one of.my favorite forever❤
This song makes me melt. *swoons* x
great music
I was only 15 years old, living in Istanbul when this song came out. Their music always puts a smile on my face and takes me back to the careless days of the childhood.
Just wish those days were here again pipe dream I know but if Only !!!
Such a great kid. Such a loss. The kid that was always smiling. My heart goes out to you guys brother.
I had the words to this one in smash hits at the time from december 1984. Very nice too as well of course. Thank you too.
I have seen Tom Bailey twice at rewind, he is such a great artist and of course, this song takes me right back to the 80s. Fantastic tune along with Doctor Doctor!
Played it in Bath recently at the Tom Bailey concert...brilliant night and I had forgotten this one...
oh my .... my sudden nostalgic attack led me to this wonderful, evergreen classic. Still remains powerful and relevant to me until now... i couldn't believe it... so damn good!
ANOTHER TIMELESS CLASSIC! 80"S MUSIC RULES!! the dj
Magnifique 💚💙💙🩵💙🩵💙🩵💙🩵🙏🏼
I love this song! ❤️ 👍
Sam Tom live last weekend - fantastic in 2024 .. from someone born in ‘86 - this is music! ❤
PERFECT JAM FOR SUMMER 2024. LOVE IT!
Thompson Twins were a class act and great musicians. Proud to say I saw them twice in concert, one of the shows was at my college. ❤️💛🎶
