Is 29 Human Touch by Bruce Springsteen? Just a guess because the actual lyric from Human Touch is "I just want something to hold onto."
Subject: Re: Still Yet Another Random Lyrics Quiz
Sorry, hannahbear, that is incorrect! :(
The title of this song has a body part in it, and is sung by a legendary female singer who was part of a 60s Motown group.
