Fixing up my slip up on the other thread.

Thanks, jobeterob. "If We Hold On Together" is one of Diana's prettiest songs from the '90s. Her back-up singers sound beautiful on that last harmonizing note. I wish they had accompanied Diana throughout the entire song. [[I was really gettin' into Diana's horn section's fancy moves, too, when the video suddenly went off). Dang!

The set list is the same as the In The Name of Love Tour has been running for quite a while, more or less, ~ but If We Hold On Together is part of the finale, followed by a 2nd I Will Survive, followed by Reach Out & Touch, followed by a 3rd I Will Survive.

Not my favorite Ross song as it's very sappy, but that was a very pretty, touching performance.

I think that was the audience that sang the last note on If We Hold On as it didn't look the backpart singers were just standing there watching. Also the song dates back to 1988 or 89 as it was a song on the soundtrack of the cartoon movie Land Before Time, if I'm not mistaken.

Yes, If We Hold On Together is from the animated movie, The Land Before Time.
