Hi guys :heart:

 

I love the song. The last minute or so got me emotional. Absolutely stunning. Euphoric.

Seems to be getting a lot of praise.

I read that the intro is actually exact words of a dying ITALIAN soldier to his radio.

What! :o that adds so much meaning to it knowing that!

That was just random person on twitter but wouldn't be surprised if it was actually true. Maybe Gaga / Bloodpop will enlighten us.

The Daily Beast:

 

“Hold My Hand” is a direct descendant of the ’80s power ballad genre. The sweeping guitars and violins backing the verses crescendo into an explosive chorus marked by a steady but booming drumbeat. The arena-ready song belongs on a playlist between “Open Arms” by Journey and “Alone” by Heart. At any moment, you can practically picture Gaga’s hair blowing dramatically in the wind as fireworks light up the sky behind her.

I have a feeling this will be another Million Reasons - a song that will touch people forever

Collider:

 

As we reported last week, Lady Gaga wrote a song for the upcoming film, Top Gun: Maverick and now “Hold My Hand” has been released. Reminiscent of much of the pop superstar’s other works, fans who were hoping for a piece that would resemble her A Star is Born Oscar award-winning hit, “Shallow,” won’t find what they’re looking for here. Unlike the singer-songwriter country vibe of that earworm composition, “Hold My Hand” is more of a Gaga ballad - meaning it has a lot of synthesizers and build-ups with a fair share of high notes hit by the legendary performer.

 

Opening on synths and distorted vocals, Lady Gaga is soon heard crooning out the first verse of the ballad. As the music begins to swell, the drums kick in just in time for the tune’s catchy chorus. Distorted guitars hit the main chords as the song builds only to slow down for the second verse. Once again, drums lead into the chorus on the second go around as Lady Gaga launches into singing the song’s title over and over before heading into a drumless, but synthesizer filled bridge. The rest of the number features a guitar solo that we didn’t see coming and Gaga doing countless amounts of vocal runs before bowing out with one soft line at the end. One thing is for sure, Gaga was definitely inspired by the days of the original film when synthesized love songs with hard hitting guitar solos filled the airwaves.

Really think that the "ballad bop banger" on sub-title fits this song perfectly :lol:
