Once in a blue moon, you hear a song for the first time and you think, "that's it - that's a stone cold classic, and it will be forever." "Hold On" is one of those songs. The great thing about it is its timeless nature. If you played it for a musical Rip Van Winkle, he/she would have difficulty deciding whether it was from the Sixties, Seventies, 80s...you get the idea.
Brittany Howard recorded her first solo album this year, but I hope we hear more from Alabama Shakes. But even if we don't, there was one good album, one great album, and this timeless song.
