Holiday (Live Aid 1985) - live Lyrics

[Intro]
Holiday
Celebrate
Come on people, put your hands together!
I'm talking to you!
Holiday
I can't hear you!
Celebrate

[Chorus]
If we took a holiday
Took some time to celebrate
Just one day out of life
It would be
It would be so nice

[Verse 1]
Everybody spread the word
We're gonna have a celebration
All across the world
In every nation

[Pre-Chorus]
It's time for the good times
Forget about the bad times, oh yeah
One day to comе together, to relеase the pressure
We need a holiday
[Chorus]
If we took a holiday
Took some time to celebrate (Come on, let's celebrate)
Just one day out of life (Holiday)
It would be
It would be so nice

[Verse 2]
You can turn this world around
And bring back all of those happy days
Put your troubles down, come on now
It's time to celebrate

[Pre-Chorus]
Let love shine
And we will find
A way to come together and make things better
We need a holiday

[Chorus]
If we took a holiday (Holiday)
Took some time to celebrate (Celebrate)
Just one day out of life (Just one day)
It would be
It would be so nice
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah
Come on, let's celebrate
We have got to get together

[Spoken Interlude]
I just wanna take this time to thank everybody for coming here today
You know there's a lot of major pop stars here playing but
You know it doesn't matter who you are, it's why you're here
And I'm glad you're here
So you wanna hear some more?
What about you people in the back?

[Refrain]
Holiday
Celebrate
Holiday
Celebrate
Oh-oh yeah

[Chorus]
If we took a holiday (Holiday)
Took some time to celebrate (Celebrate)
Just one day out of life (Just one day)
It would be, it would be so nice
[Outro]
Holiday, celebration
Come together in every nation
Holiday, celebration
Come together in every nation

We've got to get together
Take some time to celebrate
Just one day out of life
Oh yeah, it would be so nice

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
