My late son introduced me to so much good music including Alabama Shakes and this song. I can’t tell you how many times I asked him after he died why he just couldn’t hold on one more day, one more night, one more minute. I love this song and think about him every time I hear it.

It's been 30 days since I was told I have cancer. It's taken this long to get a second opinion and my port in. In two days I start dose dense chemotherapy. I will be honored to listen to this song during the next six or seven months of my treatments. I thank Alabama Shakes for sending me this message. P.S. It doesn't hurt that I'm an Alabama girl! P.P.S. Here's my update. I've held on! Still around, had a recurrence, post traumatic GROWTH (how bout that!?!?). On immunotherapy and doing well. Love to all of you who sent me love and prayers and good vibes. I had no idea so many of you reached out until today, my 3 year anniversary). Wish I could reply individually to you. Make your day great! Julie Kay from Alabama

[@ramham24]

Good luck, friend. I'm battling cancer myself at the moment. It took me about a month to start treatments as well just because of port and had to get kidney stents put in. It's a rough road. The radiation is what really kicked my ass. Hang in there .

[@PaintedShovel]

@@ramham24 Thank you. Sending you good vibes too.

[@becsailor1822]

I am going through cancer with my mom. I know how it feels but you are not alone. You have made a statement about how good your taste is and made it to the people who feel you. I am with you and I am sure the rest here are as well. Good luck and the positive attitude is what gets you through.

Wishing you all positive thoughts to get through it the shit. Lost both parents to malignant melanoma & 2 best friends to cancer. Personally fight skin cancer 3 surgeries in past 4 months & 2 rounds of chemo. Have biopsies every 3 months. Gotta keep fighting. Courage & bravery comes from inner strength you can't believe you even have. Fight on because there's no decent alternative! ❤💪😊

Myself and 4 of my other stage hands who were on break enjoyed her set from the eagles nest backstage. I couldn't move, i couldn't speak. Literally took my soul for a ride unlike it had ever been on before. They played this song about halfway through their set and this one brought me to my knees!

I personally love the feral cat sounds that mince out of the much hated Ms. Joanna Newsom. Also, the female lead of Carolina Chocolate Drops (can't remember her name o- o) has a badass southern singin' voice a lot like Brittany. Good music NEEDS to xome back to the forefront. .... I wish to do inhuman things to radio devices, (depraved, horrible things,) even when I know they don't control the insufferable noise that is deemed popular and diarrhea'd out of their speakers. Sorry F. Mercury All I hear is Radio kaka.

One night I was sitting alone and scared in a really bad bad situation and I was praying so hard to God and asked for a sign from my ex fiance to please give me a sign that they he was with me and I would be saved and make it out alive. God's good grace and mercy was upon me and the radio powered on by itself and this song started to play I started crying and in that moment I knew I would be ok. Fast forward week later my Dad and aunt drove 8 hours straight and found me in the middle of nowhere they rescued me saved my life. I'll forever be grateful and never will I forget this beautiful song that played that night out of the blue. This is the whole truth my truth of God's love mercy and Grace. Never ever give up and always hold on. ❤

[@rhondaanderson2515]

Just keep in mind. Those feelings of wanting to end it all..they are only temporary. They come and go. Be strong and hold out till those feelings change. And when.you are thinking clearly use this time to come up with positive changes that you can use next time you find yourself in that suicidal position again. I know its exhausting but ppl that love you would rather have you tired then dead. Dont be so hard on yourself. We all seem to be our own worst enemy.

Dear Alabama Shakes,I am participating in the Out of the Darkness Walks this morning in Maryland, in my brother's memory, Joey Blanton-Harris, who died by suicide. He was a phenomenal musician and human being. I have been an emotional mess all night, and needed a song to warm my heart and get me going. I simply googled "hold on", as it was the theme I felt the walk represents. Your song was on the list, and was the first one I clicked on. Was I glad I found it! Thank you!

Nah, not gold. More like someone melted down a big chunk of rusty iron and added some honey to it. I mean that all in a good way. Gold is like some pop singer. This chick has some pipes and a roughness to her singing. Been listening to them most of the morning with my 1 year old daughter, dancing and singing along. Hoping I can get her started on the good stuff so she doesn't get into just the pop stuff that her friends are into when she gets older. I was listening to 60's 70's rock and old blues before I was a teenager and never got into most of the contemporary music of my youth. Fortunately I moved before high school and it was cool to like that music at the new school.

[@dannyg4550]

OMG, are you kidding me or what? If there ever was such a thing as a perfect voice, well, ladies and gentleman, its here. Yup. No questions asked. Hands down winner. Her, name is BRITTNEY HOWARD. People, we have been blessed with her drop dead perfect voice along with the most touching words and spirit a song could offer. This song 'HOLD ON' has it. Is it. And wait, of course lest I forget to mention a song that is brimming with feel, and, soul, overflowing with emotion, and hope, all the while it has perhaps, "THE MOST UPLIFTING SONG EVER RECORDED" TITLE WRITTEN ALL OVER IT. I'm in my mid 50s and I had to stop and sit down. Listen again and again. Then I pinched myself, that I had to wait 50 something years to hear this gold. Bless my heart. Bless my soul. This song, has touched me deeply to my soul and brought back the beauty in songwriting. This song has such a riff that is worse than crack. Just once, you hear this song and if you're a human, you'll be stuck listening over and over again, and loving life again. There just might be someone above, as Brittney says. Brittney, I concur! Baby, I'm HOLDING ON! [By the way, so far I'm on 68 consecutive listens to this song, I'll stop at 100 consecutive listens--over 5 hours straight. I needed this, I had to get back up.].

Found this song today. It's on repeat for the day. It just makes me feel sad and happy at the same time. 🖤❤

[@amandaalvey408]

This song has gotten me through so serious crap in my life. I love this band and their sound. Her voice and lyrics are just amazing. Thank you for saving my life. Seriously.

[@williamrolls2865]

Hello friend, how're you doing today?

[@Savage_a_traylor]

My old bff sent me this song. She was working at St. Jude at the time. My dad passed away when this song was popular. My sister's name is Whitney. So when my bff, callie, called me, she replaced Brittany with Whitney. This song has always been my goto when im missing my dad... thank God for artist who digggg deep when performing.

I love her so much. The whole band kicks.

[@jbizzle7616]

I’ve heard very little of Alabama Shakes in the past, before my music tastes matured. Coming back around now and I dig it.

[@point7point724]

Kick ass band. The vocals are mesmerizing. The band is tight. They are a throwback to the days when music punched you right in the gut and made you listen!

[@Switcharoo12]

Damn right!

[@jacklizzard1428]

Yea, that lead guitar and the bass and organ etc.... well the whole dang band is really very good!!

[@darkmaitri]

Yes! And that illustrates the difference between a real band and one where a bunch of different musicians back up a front person. This is a real band!

[@ethanfisher-perez9620]

That's a good way to put it :)

[@Tibbz1313]

I'm from Boston, Massachusetts and I remember hearing this for the first time on WAAF while at work and immediately got the chills and fell in love with the lyrics and emotion in her voice and the whole band's delivery of this song!!! Absolutely amazing!!!!! Thank you Alabama Shakes for such a beautiful, truthful and inspiring song!!!

[@Eric.Clarke]

I'm from Boston too and I grew up with WAAF and WBCN. So many great memories of listening to the radio in the car or at home in my room. I was so sad when WBCN closed them mad when WAAF closed too.

[@vortexrider04]

Thank you for posting this... I was clearing out my open internet tabs on my phone, and one of them was a search for this song. And I could NOT remember where or when I'd have heard it to have searched for it. Hit play to see what it was and OMG!! I'm obsessed!

[@raydepalma3601]

She has an amazing voice and she plays guitar just as good, the whole band is awesome and this song is amazing

[@OnTheShouldersOfGiants64]

I remember being in Tennessee about to head back to Florida in the morning unable to sleep and seeing this song performed live! I was coming back to town for my grandmothers memorial service and I had been talking to a girl and we ended up getting together when I got back. It reminded me that there was good even in the bad times, of course we didn't last and eventually I had new good times to get me through that darkness.

[@TheNotSo90s]

Amazing. Love the sound this band makes. The voice is unbelievable.

[@Unwavering137]

Thanks Brittany & Bama Shakes. Good lesson in self love and faith in the process of life as it unfolds.Y'all rock!
