1993 single by Loft
"Hold On" is a song recorded by German group Loft, released in November 1993 by RCA as the second single from the group's first album, Wake the World (1994). Written by Courtney Williams, Nosie Katzmann and Richard Williams, the song features vocals by American singer Kim Sanders. Becoming one of the group's most successful singles, it reached number two on the Canadian RPM Dance/Urban chart and was a top 10 hit also in Israel (8), while entering the top 20 in Denmark (13) and Finland (19). Additionally, it was a top 30 hit in Austria (26), Germany (21) and Switzerland (30). On the Eurochart Hot 100, "Hold On" peaked at number 54 in January 1994. Its accompanying music video was directed by Barry Maguire[1] and made mostly in black-and-white, but some scenes also have a sepia tone. German group Fun Factory used the same melody for their hit single "Close To You" in 1994.[2]
