    I love both this version and the original. They hit me differently. The PREP's version makes me feel like I in my mid thirties or forties, sitting on the porch on a sunny day, reminiscing about all the hardship that I've been through with a smile, like it's a sad life but I've still made it somehow. The orginal by Harry Styles is totally different. The fastter rhythm makes me feel like I'm sweping away in life, so busy that I don't even have time to look back, one minute I was just 18, a moment later and I am already 30. Time flies too fast, and everything is slipping through my finger, which I'm regretting that I can't hold them back. Great song and great performance by both

    Holdin' me back

    I want you to hold out the palm of your hand
    Why don't we leave it at that?
    Nothin' to say
    When everything gets in the way
    Seems you cannot be replaced
    And I'm the one who will stay, oh-oh-oh
    In this world, it's just us
    You know it's not the same as it was
    In this world, it's just us
    You know it's not the same as it was

    You know it's not the same
    Answer the phone
    You know you're no good alone
    Why are you sitting at home on the floor?
    What kind of pills are you on?"
    Ringin' the bell
    And nobody's coming to help
    Your daddy lives by himself
    He just wants to know that you're well, oh-oh-oh
    In this world, it's just us
    You know it's not the same as it was
    In this world, it's just us
    You know it's not the same as it was
    As it was, as it was
    You know it's not the same
    Go home, get ahead, light-speed internet
    I don't wanna talk about the way that it was
    Leave America, two kids follow her
    I don't wanna talk about who's doin' it first
    (Hey)

    You know it's not the same as it was

    Nothin' to say
    When everything gets in the way
    Seems you cannot be replaced
    And I'm the one who will stay, oh
    In this world, it's just us
    You know it's not the same as it was
    In this world, it's just us
    You know it's not the same as it was
    As it was, as it was
    You know it's not the same
    Answer the phone
    "Harry, you're no good alone
    Why are you sittin' at home on the floor?
    What kind of pills are you on?"
    Ringin' the bell
    And nobody's comin' to help
    Your daddy lives by himself
    He just wants to know that you're well, oh
    In this world, it's just us
    You know it's not the same as it was
    In this world, it's just us
    You know it's not the same as it was
    As it was, as it was
    You know it's not the same
    Go home, get ahead, light-speed internet
    I don't wanna talk about the way that it was
    Leave America, two kids follow her
    I don't wanna talk about who's doin' it first
    As it was
    You know it's not the same as it was
    As it was, as it was

    Much Luv to any music that pays homage, & gives nostalgia to that Bobby Caldwell, Roy Ayers vibe the golden glories of 70's Rnb funk

    I love both versions❣️However, this arrangement is a time capsule taking me back to fond memories of my youth created to a 70’s, 80’s sound …vinyl & cassettes, lol 😊

    This song is somehow nostalgic - reminds of the 80s-90s. So soothing!
