One of our listeners heard Alabama Shakes, "Hold On" and started thinking about all the songs that are called "hold on." We started digging around and there are way more than we thought there would be.

So, today we are holding on for the Coffee Break. What songs with "hold on" (or some very similar variation) in the title should we play this morning?

Songs Played:

Alabama Shakes "Hold On"

Sam and Dave "Hold On, I'm Comin'"

Tom Waits "Hold On"

Neko Case "Hold On, Hold On"

John Lennon "Hold On"

Electric Light Orchestra "Hold on Tight"

Guided By Voices "Hold on Hope"
