"Hold on My Heart" is a song by English rock band Genesis from their 14th studio album, We Can't Dance (1991). The ballad[3][4] was released as the album's third single on 6 April 1992.

Music video[edit]
The music video shows the band playing at an empty night club, similar to Collins' 1985 video for "One More Night". To create the visual effect seen in the music video, the music on the recording of the video was played fast and the "singing" was mimed fast. When the music was slowed down to normal speed, the members of the band appear to be moving in slow motion, similar to the video for "Wrapped Around Your Finger" by The Police.
Live performances[edit]
The song was played live during The Way We Walk,[5] Calling All Stations (with Ray Wilson on vocals,[5] though rarely played in a low key to accommodate Wilson's voice), and Turn It On Again: The Tour[5] tours. A live version appears on their albums The Way We Walk, Volume One: The Shorts, and Live over Europe 2007, as well as on their DVDs The Way We Walk — Live in Concert and When in Rome 2007.
