Manilow, Barry - Let's Hang On Lyrics

Would love to see him.

This is the first video clip I ever remember seeing, must have been Saturday morning hits or something, c 1983-4......

Great song and one of the best songs Barry did in his later years.

Fantastic voice. So soothing.

No 4 here is Aus in 1981. Classic

Love his music

J'adore jouer à ce jeu dans la piscine à 1:35. C'est tellement plaisant d'être bien assis sur des épaules.

Why didn't they ask me to be part of the video? I would have gladly be part of the scene in the pool at 1:35, riding on the shoulders of one of those two guys. I don't care which one, as long as I am sitting up there!

If he fell ove he would strike oil...

Thinking back, it was a pretty shitty(!) re-vamp of Franky Valley's original version, but I liked it, at the time...................

I think tha Manchattan Transfer's version is much better

Barry with a hand on her thigh. Oh the irony. Bwahahahaha

Don Holmes He had to try. I think I knew he was gay when I was prepubescent child. His album cover had him posing with a gaggle of pet beagles, and I thought...I guess it’s the kind of cutesy thing girls love, but...from a 70’s standpoint, you shouldn’t be too in tune with what girls love and all that. And the sort of Liberace image he had also added to the general impression.
He didn’t come out until two years ago, but he’s always been out to me.

Why does the copyright date say 1983 when this song was released in the Spring of 1982? Nonetheless I think Barry Manilow did a great rendition of the 4 Seasons classic yet.

Who's the cute gal in the car with Barry?

Jm J Bullock aka Monroe ,Too close for comfort.That' s how his name is spelled in the credits.

He can't go wrong

Yhe kid thst sell the popcore looks like Jacob from Twilight.

Thank you for your sweet music love to dance to

There ain't no good in our goodbyein'
True love takes a lot of tryin'
Oh, I'm cryin'
Let's hang on to what we've got
Don't let go, girl, we've got a lot
Got a lot of love between us
Hang on, hang on, hang on to what we've got
You say you're gonna go and call it quits,
Gonna chuck it all and break our love to bits
Break it up (I wish you'd never said it)
Break it up (oh no, we'll both regret it)
That little chip of diamond on your hand
Ain't a fortune , baby,
But you know it stands for the love, (a love to tie and bind ya)
Such a love (we just can't leave behind us)
Baby (don't you know?)
Baby (don't you go)
Think it over and stay! Let's hang on
Let's hang on to what we've got
Don't let go, girl, we've got a lot
Got a lot of love between us
Hang on, hang on, hang onto what we've got
There isn't anything I wouldn't do
I'd pay any price to get in good with you
Patch it up (give me a second turnin')
Patch it up (don't cool off while I'm burnin')
You've got me cryin', dyin' at you door
Don't shut me out, ooh, let me in once more
Open up (your arms, I need to hold you)
Open up (your heart, oh girl, I love you)
Baby, don't you know?
Baby, don't you go
Think it over and stay
Let's hang on to what we've got
Don't let go, girl, we've got a lot
Got a lot of love between us
Hang on, hang on, hang on to what we've we got
Let's hang on, let's hang on, let's hang on

Funny how he only came out as guy the other year, we already knew with the funny fashion sense and sensitivity he he!

This is inferior to the original in so many ways.

ese chico "Joe Montana" era buen .. excelente cantante

Woah he looks JUST like DRU , Gru's brother from despicable me. Even dresses the same!!!

I had to Google it because I've never seen the movie.
You're absolutely right!

Barry and the four manilows.

Good time , That never come back

I love this

QUE GANAS DE VERLO EN SUS ACTUACIONES GRANDE BARRY

Simplesmente sou apaixonada por Barry Manillow. Desde criança.

I Love this song and I LOVE BARRY !!!!!!!!!

This was released as a single in 1983, then Billy Joel came up with Uptown Girl same year. I think it is a message that the 4 Seasons will have a resurgence of popularity in the mid 80s.

To a great artist, I wish you the best of all things

Ewald von Kleist 1 year later were are u now

Love this video Barry looks great in white

Does anyone else love how the background singer(s) sing in minor chords?

Absolutley fucking loved him back then. I hve some amazing memorys of him

oh Ross gellers uncle barry alway thought rosz from friends were barrys nephew!😎

So enjoyable - Great music and humor!

I might be very disappointed at Barry, but I still love his music. I think the album with this song is one of the best!

You should try Manhattan Transfer’s version. It’s even more pronounced, possessing more overlapping multiple chords and octaves of male and female vocal ranges

I like the Belinda Carlisle cover as well. It came out in the late 80's.

Truly love this song back was Air on radio stations still enjoy more today . Still is classic hit song. And video clip. A plus. Back 1980s music let's turn up the sound or listen to it again and again.

This song was originally written and performed by frankie valley and the four seasons but barry puts a cool spin on it and speeds it up i loved the original version and this one too

こんな映像もあったんでんすね、バリーが若くてかわいい❤️

41 individuals on this page can't hang on !

Ok, ok, I admit it, I have a secret Barry Manilow spot in the old attic of m mind. I am by no means a elevator music kind of chick, I love my metal, punk, and raging chick weirdo music, but I am like a cake, under the sweet bright frosting there are layers. Mind you all I was very young when my sister was all into ol' Barry. But there are a few songs that made a big impact on me, and let's be honest, you can't get more wholesome than the Bar-meister. Regardless of anything, he had a HUGE female following and it seems like he always appreciated his fans. You just keep on crooning Barry, you sing and play the piano to your heart's content!

Great song, great video, great Barry Manilow!! I really like this styling. :-) Who is the woman in this clip?

He is not a guy gay I believe in that. And about this song, amazing melody with a great voice. Love Barry Manilow so much

Yoshikumi me too, he is wonderful singer, and musician, he is great!! 😍

@Holly Herring He is bi !

yo am i the only one who thinks he sounds like weird al in this

And I'm thinking I was the only one

Esta buena canción la compusieron THE FOUR SEASONS y la cantaron en el año 1965 y la versiono BARRY MANILOW en el año 1981

Video-wise, it's one of Barry's best videos, fun stuff. Great remake as well.

THE SONG "LET'S HANG ON" By BARRY MANILOW IS GREAT!

You always give me hope

This Fanilow loves all Barry's songs, but it's so sad he wasn't singing "don't let go, boy" with a man as his interest in the video. Society's homophobia can go to heck in a handbasket.

loved this song when he was here at the resch center

Barry Marlow is gay.... who didn't see that one coming... 🤣😂😆

Well, I think he might of been bisexual for a long while then he realized
he like men more than woman sexually

It was awesome back in 1983 when I jigged around to it, and I still jig around to it ... onya Bazza... gawd so long ago.. I forget my age sometimes.. ;)

I've been a fanilow since the beginning, but there is no way anyone with a clue could have mistaken him for straight. We all knew back then and his trying to romance a girl in this video comes across as so awkward.

Straight, gay? Who cares? His music inspires! As does Elton's. Wham's. I don't want to know about their personal life. Just their view of life in general. Hang On!

This is great and I love the video!

love this song first time seeing video didn't know he had made one for this song
Barry is the greatest of all time ♡

I think about half of those views are mine ;)

Jan CW LOL 🙂 Nice

Jan CW 2 years later where are u now

I love this song <3

Blows the 4 Seasons' version out of the water.

lurch321 .....uh, no it doesn’t...

Most time, the original is untouchable. This is a good cover but not better than the 4 Seasons

No, it just blows.

Pretty good cover of a Four Seasons classic...

I *loved* this song the moment I heard it on the radio!

Love ya, Barry!

Brill especially with headphones on.x

Happy birthday dear Barry M. I wish you all the best God bless you love you always n forever

1981/82: Barry does all the vocals, and this one did pretty well as the third single from "If I Should Love Again". The LP came out late in '81, and this single in Spring '82. It's all about the music; don't care what he does off the clock. And I like cheese, especially on a burger.

Cheese is one of the best foods ever invented!

Barry Manilow, I still think you're gorgeous, and your voice is the most beautiful out there.

He is the Hottest guy out there . I love your voice & my co workers enjoy me playing your music at night while we are working. Love ya BARRY.

He should’ve been sitting in that car with a bloke....

This guy looks a lot like Sterling Holloway.

I love this version. i would love to be in her place.

I like the version bazzaa done of the four seasons  song better than the original.

it was 1981

+dlamiss This song came out in 1984. Damn thing was all over the radio then.

+TheJer1963 the song was in the British charts in October 1981 so it didn't come out here in 1984

You know it was my mistake. I was thinking of Read 'em and weep that was all over the radio in 1984. Sorry about that. Getting old here.

+TheJer1963 no worries...............

man he was so uncool, but made a living out of it!

+Bazzo Smyth Too right, Bazzo, a very good living. And I believe he is still VERY popular with the ladies (of a certain age, maybe ?!) - and to be fair this is a bit of toe-tapper ! Fun "vid",too, never seen it before.

+KAF128 it's really not just women of of a certain age lol. I'm 25 and I've had a huge thing for barry since my teens :-) xx

+Emma Dolben Fair enough !  When he first surfaced in the UK (around 1978 ?) I liked the sound of some of his songs, but a few months later I saw what he looked like - LOL !  P.S. I'm male !

+KAF128 I'm 30 and I like him too.

He had a UK hit with Mandy way back in 1975.

I like Barry Manilow songs. From : Alex Egbuna

Ha. She doesn't like gay guys....but I do. I love you, Barry!

Hahaha!

tengo mas de 10 años buscándote, y lo logre mis mejores recuerdos de mi hermanito que ya no esta conmigo, pero esta canción nos puso de corazón a corazón¡¡

Wooooooooooooooonderfullllllllll...!! Hasta que por fin la encontre...!!

good memories for me,,great song this barry..x

Awkward...

came here to listen to barry manilow verison its pretty good but I still love the four seasons one

I love you Barry Manilow

four seasons

It WAS the '80s, wasn't it ???

@Laceykat66 The song featured on his 1981 album 'If I should Love Again'.

It's said's in the description box 1983

was in the British charts in October 81

Four Seasons is better ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

omg ! classic song made cheesy 

It's not talking about cock bitch it's not a sexual song bitch

那部電影我有看過,真的很感人,就是說有一位老伯伯,他在工作時突然昏倒,然後送醫不治,宣告死亡,狗狗小巴每天都會定時到火車站等主人(因為牠主人下班後都會坐火車回家),牠以為主人會像一如往常的回來,所以就一直等,等等等,等過了一年四季還在等,因為有好心人士給牠食物,所以牠才不會餓死,後來也因為年紀太大而死去,就這樣,牠好像等了主人一年多吧(我不太記得了= =),這部電影是由真實故事改寫的

如果我是法官的話知道他有狗我只會關他一天如果是大罪的話也只會關一星期!!因為生命比較重要!!

Quality cheese.

+ZanduckTV2 Indeed - top-notch bit of Cheddar !

Yep, and a cheesy video to match!!

ZanduckTV2 Velveeta!

Who doesn't love cheese?

zauberhafter Videoclip. ich hätte barry manilow sicherlich nicht "geohrfeigt". ich wäre die glücklichste frau der welt, würde ich ihm je so nahe gekommen sein!!!
