Hold Me Tight

Lennon/McCartney

Lyrics:
It feels alright now
Hold me tight
Tell me I'm the only one
And then I might
Never be the lonely one

So hold me tight
tonight, tonight
it's you,
you, you ,you, oo

Hold me tight
Let me go on loving you
Tonight, tonight
Making love to only you

So hold me tight
tonight, tonight
it's you,
you, you ,you, oo

Don't know what it means to hold you tight
Being here alone tonight with you

It feels alright now
Hold me tight
Tell me I'm the only one
And then I might
Never be the lonely one

So hold me tight
tonight, tonight
it's you,
you, you ,you, oo

Hold me tight
Let me go on loving you
Tonight, tonight
Making love to only you

So hold me tight
tonight, tonight
it's you,
you, you ,you, oo
you, oo]

What Goes On? Anomalies

Throughout * NEW *
Squeaky bass pedal on Ringo's kit, best heard at 0:59-1:12, 1:39-1:50, (use left channel of stereo if you have it)

0:03 and 1:11
John sings " ... right, so", and yet
Paul sings " ... right, now"

0:38 * NEW *
Phrasing of "To--night" and "Tonight" varies between singers

1:27 * NEW *
John and George's echo of "hold" is disasterous, sounds like George scooped into John's note.

2:00 * NEW *
John comes in late with backing vocal, and there's some faint speech

2:21 * NEW *
Sudden change in volume on right channel of stereo only.

Note: I did not write or compile these anomalies. Please don't email me with new anomalies and please read the WGO Info page.
