Music video by Tommy Lee performing Hold Me Down. (C) 2002 Geffen Records

[@MrThomasbenton]

I worked on this video and was invited to tommy’s house to premiere it !! What a honor it was there with tommy to see our hard work!!

[@SylverGryphon33]

Who knew Tommy Lee could sing like this? Absolutely amazing.

[@Keezie27]

I love this song. This entire album is awesome. It's underrated. I really like Tommy's solo stuff.

[@craigdennington9099]

Yea I got this album when it came out I was in high school and I still give this album a spin time to time even in 2023

[@laperla6163]

What did I miss...Tommy has such a great voice, the song is fantastic. This belongs back on the radio

[@adamJKpunk]

Such a great song, and a pretty good album in general. Nothing terribly complicated, just good rock and roll.

[@NexusKin]

Yeah, it's a nice post-grunge nu-metal album, and a cool surprise compared to the hair metal that Motley Crue is known for.

[@RRfan1]

Had no idea Tommy could sing like that!! Awesome !!!'

Tommy lee is more handsome than adam levine that is why tommy mannage to still fly with those hot-hair-balloons.adam dated those type of chicks as tommy's but they are all flat.

[@MrPhilolsen]

remember he have a protagonic rol in some songs of MC

[@catherinemccurry3940]

I'm not gonna hate, but Tommy Lee should continue his strive to be a solo artist, because he would be better off😁😁😁. He doesn't need to continue motley!!!!

[@catherinemccurry3940]

He's better off. Motley is dragging him down.

[@catherinemccurry3940]

He's a better musician than his other motley bandmates!!!(not hating on them, just stating da facts!!!!!)

[@kishalester5110]

Love this song and the whole cd, "Never A Dull Moment".

[@saltysouthernmomma9354]

This is the 1st time hearing this song. I love it! Been a Crue fan since like '84. I was 13 or 14 & cried when you married Heather. Lmao! I'm proud of Crue & proud of YOU for your success AND you're still alive & still beautiful. Much love from a broken Crue head from eastern NC.

[@shavonlynn5324]

Love this song and Tommy Lee Rock n Roll forever!

[@BruceWayne-ub8eh]

This song should have been waaaay bigger! The album all together is totally underrated....a real hidden rock n roll gem!

[@worsethanhitlerpt.2539]

Dont hold Tommy down... He only got to make 50 porno movies with Pam Anderson when he wanted to make 100.

[@Keezie27]

I agree

[@jengable4888]

Great lyrics ! I can relate !! Everytime you almost climb out of the "pit" that you were thrown and manipulated into ...something aweful happens and keeps you down, poor, controlled and contained ! Keep writing those lyrics Tommy !

[@austinmcdonald1988]

This is so crazy he didnt blow up as a real frontman when he was doing this. He is so awesome and his songs rock! Tommy im a fan for life, i hope to meet u someday!

[@myownruin187]

I've enjoyed this album but love this song.. Rock on Tommy..

[@manleykirton9098]

I'm with an older gentleman and he was the first person to ever show me this song,but I love this song and I play it a lot.Since he has been playing it a lot himself as well,it is probably like the most played song on this phone.lol

[@poppagotch4991]

This album was a life changer for me such a bad ass album. I love the passion Tommy had on both of his rock albums. You can really feel every tune I love it 🤘

[@amberjo4327]

Still gets stuck in my head & gives me the goosebumps ♡♡♡

[@TheDougGreanFanClubArchives]

It's got a good hook. :) Catchy.

[@davidnissim589]

Why was this song not bigger? Released by a well-known artist, released during the peak of nu-metal, so why is it so unknown still?

[@emilycooper8958]

David Nissim Don’t worry, it was all over the radio in 2002.

[@timothymark8254]

Like it says in the song, every time he wants to fly, someone always tries to hold him down.

[@calestelken4645]

It was definitely in heavy rotation back in 2002, similar to Dave Navarro's song "Rexall" or Jerry Cantrell's "Anger Rising." But they unfortunately didn't sustain popularity. Weird how that happens. I've always meant to call my local rock station and request these once-popular singles and see what they say.

[@lucky5th2]

This isn't nu-metal but, it is a good song

[@Logan24855]

TL is obviously not appreciated in his own time. What a great drummer

[@SweetNightmareASMR]

Tommy's solo stuff is really amazing I don't know why he doesn't get more recognition as a great rock singer as well as being an incredible drummer 🖤 and the lyrics in this song are so beautiful I can relate ♥️

Tommy has a great voice he should keep making music one of the best drummers ever!

[@worsethanhitlerpt.2539]

Tommy was married to Heather Locklear and Pam Anderson. I can officially say he is FORBIDEN to write a song where he bitches about his life.

[@victorcoleman949]

Tommy Lee is the okayest drummer in Motley Crue.

[@xavierevan123]

And thats how a legendary drummer plays a guitar ladies and gentlemen....

[@mitchellrivers]

One hell of a song from tommy ..... let it out homie, don't let them hold u down

[@geminigrrl66]

BorrioTV dude, you don't get out much do you? There are a LOT of Black people who like metal. But it's stupid attitudes from gatekeepers of all colors who make it hard to be open sometimes. In my case, I'm old school so I don't give a fuck what anyone thinks. Good music is good music regardless of genre. Maybe if you weren't so brainwashed by the music industry that segregated music this way, you'd wouldn't be so ignorant.
