Hold Me Up Lyrics

This song is a demo from the throwing copper era. It was originally used in the Kevin Smith movie Mallrats, the band refused to release it at that time. It was recently used in another Kevin Smith movie "Zach & Miri Make A Porno" and it appears in an "emotional scene" with Zack and Miri. Smith made a statement about featuring the song in the film: "It's an old song that I first heard in ‘95, when we were putting together the Mallrats soundtrack. It was actually in the film for the first test screening, but Live decided they wanted to hold onto it as a potential single off their next album (which would follow Throwing Copper). When I was editing Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, the song had still never surfaced or been released, so I put in a request for it again. Again, I was denied. Third time, apparently, was the charm. Needed a song for that sequence in Zack and Miri and remembered the Live track. This time, the band signed off on us using the track. Took 13 years, but was worth the wait."
