"Wanna Hold You" is a song by English rock and roll band the Rolling Stones featured on their 1983 album Undercover.
Although credited to Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, "Wanna Hold You" is largely a Richards composition. The song was written in a recording studio in Paris in the basement of a house of one of Richards' acquaintances. Keith Richards describes the song's structure as being "very early sort of Lennon/McCartney, let alone the title, which suggest I Want to Hold Your Hand." The first recording of the song, of which Richards claims to have the original tape, featured only Keith Richards on guitar and vocals and Mick Jagger on drums.
The lyrics deal with the often used topic of a poor man having nothing to give to a woman but love as the following line illustrates:
During the Rolling Stones' Bridges To Babylon Tour, "Wanna Hold You" was a regular part of the mini-set sung by Keith Richards and was performed 99 times (of 107 concerts in total).
