To all the negatives on this list, thompson twins are 80,s legends! So cut them a little slack! He,s trying to keep there legend going forward! Plus I have rarely ever heard anything live was as good as the recorded studio version, by any living artist! It's live folks, just enjoy the moment and the Aviance!
@@carolincleve1630 it always amazes me looking back how many amazing muscians,groups & solo performers there were back then similiar to the Freedie Mercury Tribute concert,luckily some are still performing,was real music back then
I read a review of a Thompson Twins concert in the mid-1980s saying Tom just held his guitar like it was a prop barely playing it and that's exactly what is happening here.
He hasn’t sounded good in ANY of these 2024 videos I have seen. Me and a couple friends were going to travel a few hours to see him until we saw all these current videos.
Horrible. He is singing it like it is his Opus and everyone know it. The solo piano, etc. Where is the Duck Bill chick and cool dude with the Dreads? That made them the Twins in the 1980's. such a shame, robbing folks of good money.
Omg he sounds dreadful they where brilliant in the 80s Alannah made it would never go and see them the human League still got there sound there better live to this day this sounds crap

I'm 76 and a "child of the 60s" in the U.S. and it is gratifying to see so many super old rockers "getting it on!" StocktonRob
This was a banger of a song back in the day.... still is. Bloody awesome. Oh the memories....
The ultimate nostalgic song of the 80s nothing but pureness
God this brings back so many memories.
80's bands are getting older. They still sound okay. They are legends
Wonderful, brings back memories of amazing times.
for me, this is one of the key songs of the 80s - still sounds so good!
Yea, it is indeed part of the 80s tapestry.
One of my favorite song from Thompson Twins ❤

Obviously you have never heard Paul Weller or The Jam live then !
There are no such thing as Legends from the 80's. It was ALL shite music!!
@@nicholaswiltshire6356twat
Amen to that - how many people attend these shows
The Jam were legends, Mark Hollis and Talk Talk, that's legends.
They were great back in the 80s
WERE.
It's not Thompson twins without the other two😢
Joe Leeway and Alana Nash I believe?
@@pauli6043 Alannah Currie
@@waltkimbrough9478 Thank you for clarifying
Alana has no interest.
@@astateato can't necessarily blame her on the strength of this
I saw the Thompson Twins twice back in their heyday. They were fantastic. This sounds great too all these decades later.
SOMETHING WRONG WITH YOUR EARS GO TO THE DOCTORS IMMEDIATELY.
What a song❤
Fabulous thanks for sharing 🎹🎤🎸🥁🙏🏽💕
Great show. I wonder if they are ever going to visit my country Spain. I love their songs.
fantastic i watched them at Live Aid 1985
Me too i have stayed that night at the Home of my elder sister and was so Happy to See them there.

Another great band linked with our great city of Sheffield
"Hold me now" My glory days
the back up band probably were not born when this song originally came out !!! ;) Lol
I wasn’t but love this music and classic rock and music from 60s/70s/80s
❤ The Thompson Twins 😎 Lucky you 🤗
Takes me back to Sudio One and Rage all over again! Thanks for sharing!✨🏳️🌈✨
Seiner Zeit ein absoluter Disco-Knaller. Den hatte ich garnicht mehr auf dem Schirm. Dafür jetzt um so mehr.👍😁
I read a review of a Thompson Twins concert in the mid-1980s saying Tom just held his guitar like it was a prop barely playing it and that's exactly what is happening here.
After all these years Toms tired of Hold Me Now. It’s time to let go.
Fun fact: Steve Stevens played guitar for the Thompson twins for a period, and studio work
Great show! I met you in line before the concert. Keep up the great work! Thanks
great 80 song ................I think this is one of there best song
Great singer...
Merci beaucoup ma chanson préférée j’ai beaucoup bonne souvenir de ma jeunesse ❤❤
Thomson Twin.
Where's the other two twins....its just Thompson...without the twins😊
great song great song......guy still has nice hair after all these years
Oh my god !!!!
One of the biggest bands in the world with that tune .now his aint same old .but to play keyboard then guitar aint easy try it .
Lay your hands is a favorite
Clearly living of past reputation. Not very good . Some dont know when to stop . Bloody good song back in the day
It was too in 1983 and 1984 that was for sure too then.
Seen him a few years ago at a Let’s Rock 80s event in Liverpool,he had a go……
At least Tom always sounded really bad live. So this is no surprise almost 40 years later!
Very accurate comment,, He sounds exactly the same
A class band back in the day. Tom looks like he couldn’t give a f**k & the other two are no longer in the band. Shame😞
He hasn’t sounded good in ANY of these 2024 videos I have seen. Me and a couple friends were going to travel a few hours to see him until we saw all these current videos.
I love them wait where are the other 2?
He divorced Alannah years back
How can it be Thompson twins with 1,at least have 2
More like " hold my beer"
Or hold my fart 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Karaoke sure has come a long way 😂
❤
Where's Allanah
O dear wouldn't you think someone would till him stop killing a great song.
Where’s the black twin?
He sounds Exactly the same as then ,,,, Great songs And Great times , But has never been able to sing
I'm 60 now, Thompson Twins, where good, but not the same without the other 2, think it's time 2 give up Tom, 🤔
Oh dear....
Best to see the original on you tube instead I feel too.
I saw Thompson Twins open for the Police in 1983. They were brilliant. This is just sad
Music for people who don’t like music
This is an archetype of the 80s
OMG. Horror Show. 👻
Looks like Steve Martin
Oh no ..this is shocking ...
It's like he can't be bothered to sing.
Should be all 3, otherwise no point.
this should say "thompson twin"
Ted Danson still looks good
Sequence much?! Sad. Looks like it’s an all in the family band now or else Corey Feldman loaned him Corey’s Angels.
Feldman and his Angels can never be topped!
Where's the Frankie Valli like call back vocals? That's a huge part of the song, what a shame
Horrible. He is singing it like it is his Opus and everyone know it. The solo piano, etc. Where is the Duck Bill chick and cool dude with the Dreads? That made them the Twins in the 1980's. such a shame, robbing folks of good money.
Joe Leeway and Alana Nash I believe (did not Google them)
@@pauli6043 Thanks, I do not blame them for not touring with him.
RUNNING ON A FLAT BATTERY.. NEED TO GO HOME AND PRACTICE...
To bad the other 2 members won’t rejoin the band to compete the line up
Wasnt into new wave..but they sound great..
All girl bands I don't get it
I was a big fan back in the day, but I think it's time to give up Tom, without Joe and Alannah this is pretty poor to be honest imo 😢
not same. people in the band. good they have back up singer make the song sound better
He'd prefer it if the audience did all the singing then he could go have a nap.
They sound HORRIBLE!!!!!!!! I loved them back in the day. Case when you should retire.
Painfull
i love the song and studio version, but his voice is not pleasant live, for me.
Definitely NOT lipsynced!
It takes guts to perform this when you sing so bad now.
Hold this now😂😂
he looks bored
I saw them a few times in the 80’s, but this is so sad. He alone isn’t the Thompson Twins. Sorry no
Indeed so too.
Omg he sounds dreadful they where brilliant in the 80s Alannah made it would never go and see them the human League still got there sound there better live to this day this sounds crap
It's a great song but Tom Bailey's voice was never that great live. However, the 12-inch version with that fantastic bass riff is perfect.
What fool is paying money to see this?
It was dross then, it still is.
🤣🤣
Not as i remember
run outa money tour........... embarrassing!
Oh dear ……dreadful
Terrible. ..
This is brutally bad
Until he stops singing lol
Musically it’s pretty good but he needs a backing track bad
Wow... sorry but sounds like 🐕 doo dar.....think it's past its sell by 📅 date.....
God i cant believe how bad this is
Sorry to say I'm 63 could do a far better job than this
Music great, vocal awful, bloody shame.
Jesus! He can't sing!
Terrible
Wat slecht
Слов не слышно
Time to retire bonny lad
So pleased he's still pulling in the money .. Robin Hood he is .. let's hope gives it to the poor 😅😅😅
Time to quit ...lol
