"Baby Can I Hold You" is the third single released by American contemporary folk artist Tracy Chapman, released in October 1988. The song reached the top 50 in the United States, unlike its predecessor, "Talkin' 'bout a Revolution", but it failed to become Chapman's second top 40 hit, peaking at number 48. It did, however, give her a second chart entry on the US Adult Contemporary charts, peaking at number 19 in early 1989. Given the commercial decline Chapman suffered following the release of her second album Crossroads, "Baby Can I Hold You" also became her last top 50 hit until 1996's "Give Me One Reason". In July 1990, the song reached number one in Portugal. Chapman re-released the song in 2001, in support of her first greatest hits album Collection.

  • Baby Can I Hold You è una canzone della cantautrice folk statunitense Tracy Chapman, estratta nel 1988 come terzo singolo dell'album Tracy Chapman. La canzone riuscì a raggiungere la top 50 negli Stati Uniti, ma a differenza del precedente singolo Talkin' 'bout a Revolution, si fermò alla posizione numero 48. Ciò nonostante Baby Can I Hold You è tutt'oggi ricordato come uno dei brani più importanti della carriera di Tracy Chapman. Neil Diamond registrò una cover del brano per l'album del 1989 The Best Years of Our Lives diventando il primo di una lunga serie di artisti che lo hanno reinterpretato. Anche Chapman in seguito ne registrò una nuova versione in duetto con Luciano Pavarotti nell'album Pavarotti and Friends for Cambodia and Tibet nel 2001. Questo ultimo singolo raggiunse la terza posizione della classifica britannica. (it)
