Hold Me Tight is een lied van de Britse popgroep The Beatles dat is verschenen op hun tweede album With the Beatles uit 1963 . In Nederland werd het nummer ook uitgebracht op de B-kant van een single met Roll Over Beethoven op de A-kant .
Het lied werd geschreven door John Lennon en Paul McCartney in het ouderlijk huis van McCartney aan Forthlin Road in Liverpool .[ 1] Volgens McCartney was Hold Me Tight een mislukte poging om een nieuwe single te schrijven.[ 1] Zoals blijkt uit het onderstaande citaat, is McCartney niet al te trots op het nummer.
I can't remember much about that one. Certain songs were just 'work' songs, you haven't got much memory of them. That's one of them.
— Paul McCartney (1989)
[ 2]
The Beatles namen Hold Me Tight al op voor hun eerste album Please Please Me , maar het nummer werd uiteindelijk niet gebruikt op dat album.[ 3] Op 11 februari 1963 namen The Beatles 13 takes van het lied op in de Abbey Road Studios , waarvan er slechts twee compleet waren.[ 3] Op 12 september , tijdens de sessies voor With the Beatles , begonnen The Beatles aan een re-make van het lied.[ 4] Die dag namen ze tien takes van het nummer op (takes 20-29). De uiteindelijke versie van het lied die te horen is op With the Beatles is een combinatie van take 26 en 29.[ 4]
