Many fans believe Hold Me to be some Andy Taylor-inspired shouldda-bin-a-number-one, shouldda-bin-a-single.
Those fans are wrong.
But the bottom line is that it is stodgier than a suet pudding, does not feature his Lordship Sir Andrew, and demonstrates why the Boys should steer clear of the "rock" stables.
Meaningless lyrics, a pompous two-stringed (and plucked) *bass solo* (WTAF) and a tribute to power chords, and the presets on a Roland D-50, Hold Me will lead its listeners into the world of "Release Me" or "We are never getting back together" and is unworthy of the vinyl its sorry tones have caused to be cut in its name.

It is interesting. I think your topics are trending. There are stories carried by Yahoo and other sites regarding very popular songs but spun in a different light current day.
Crash - Dave Matthews Band. The gist of the story was it was inappropriate lyrics
Robert Palmer - Addicted to love. I didn't bother reading that one that came out today.
But hey, Simon essentially does the same thing. What are the two songs that Simon doesn't like because - well, they were intended to be like Save a Prayer and they missed? Matter of feeling and Leave a light on. Translated - they will never be on a setlist again!!!!

I'm one of the many fans who 100% know that Hold Me is an amazing Andy Taylor-inspired shouldda-bin-a-number-one, shouldda-bin-a-single, and would have taken Duran Duran back to the top of the world in 1986. Just goes to show that Duran Duran and EMI should have asked everybody on this forum apart from Shutterhaze about which track to release first, instead of inexplicably asking Shutterhaze. Even the lovechild of Vincent Van Gogh and Helen Keller has better hearing than that bozo.

Had Vincent Van Gogh and Helen Keller copulated, their love-child, as you so fruitily put it, would likely have had full unimpeded hearing. But, I should add that, were I to be said love-child, I would have produced a better song than Hold Me even had I been wearing industrial ear defenders and had been denied music lessons or any exposure to any music whatsoever from birth. ;-) ShutterHaze I'm one of the many fans who 100% know that Hold Me is an amazing Andy Taylor-inspired shouldda-bin-a-number-one, shouldda-bin-a-single, and would have taken Duran Duran back to the top of the world in 1986.

Stop ruining my jokes, which don't get much funnier than that, with facts.
