"Hold On" sits on The Young and the Hopeless, Good Charlotte's second album, released on Epic and Daylight in October 2002. Brothers Benji and Joel Madden wrote it, as they wrote almost everything on the record, and Eric Valentine produced, engineered and mixed it, part of sessions at Barefoot Studios in Los Angeles that ran from February to May 2002.
It's pop-punk with its heart pinned to its sleeve, a big, earnest chorus aimed straight at the kids who needed it. It followed three earlier singles, going to alternative stations in September 2003 while the band was out on a headlining US arena tour, and it was later paired with the title track as a joint single in January 2004.
