In Britain, it peaked at the impressive position of number 14. For instance, it made it to number five on the coveted Hot 100. It also scored a number 1 in South African. In addition to being their first single, it also proved to be their breakout song. This is the first song that Toto ever released. It came out, via Columbia Records, on 15 October 1978. And it is featured on their first album, which is also entitled “Toto”. So let’s just say that at the end of the day, despite “Hold the Line” being a hit, to some degree appreciating the lyrics require the listener to apply his or her own understanding to them. For if there’s one definitive sentiment being relayed throughout, it’s that the singer appreciates his lover. However, the chorus itself is quite vague and can even make a listener to conclude that somewhat of an opposite sentiment is also being relayed. So then the issue that arises is trying to ascertain the exact meaning of the phrase “love isn’t always on time”, as featured in the chorus. This statement would read as if perhaps the singer wants to take a break from the relationship. But again, there is no indication in the verses that he wants to break up with his lady – indeed quite the opposite. Or if you really want to search for some type of logical connection, it would be him saying that despite how good she treats him, he still wants to break up or put their romance on “hold” while he figures things out.īut it would be pretty difficult for someone who acknowledges that their significant other’s love ‘set them free’ to then turn around and dump the person unless, as David Paich implied, such an individual is akin to a womanizer. That having been said, he is basically complimenting his girlfriend throughout. For instance, he states that she is cool with his homeys. And the second verse even reads like they broke up at one point, yet she ‘came back to him’. He later goes as far as stating that ‘her love set him free’, which is perhaps the ultimate compliment one can give to a romantic partner. ** Single print order can either print or save as PDF.So now we know where that part the chorus came from.
