"'Hang On to Your Love'" is a song by English band Sade from their debut studio album, 'Diamond Life' (1984). It was released in November 1984 as the album's first North American single and fourth single overall.

Reception



Frank Guan of Vulture commented that "Sade's first introduction to an American audience came with this song: powered by a heavy, driving bassline and some of Sade's best advice-centered lyrics, 'Hang On' ensured that her stateside fans would do just that."
