Li Yuting's 2025 New Album “Embrace Series” Single “Let Me Hold You Tight” Officially Released Today!

Post-00s Singer-Songwriter's New Voice: A Gentle Farewell to Summer Nights

“I want to love you just a little more while I still can”

With her latest original track “Let Me Hold You Tight,” Li Yuting delicately captures the tender embrace before parting, using music to preserve an eternal moment within the flowing summer nights of this autumn. This track carries forward the philosophical essence of her previous release “Spring News,” yet delves deeper into an intimate emotional landscape. Here, she no longer chases the setting sun but stands quietly beneath a summer streetlamp, letting embraces speak for farewells and meeting parting with tenderness.

“Let Me Hold You Tight” is not a sorrowful farewell song, but rather a “goodbye letter” brimming with gratitude and courage. Li Yuting embodies her “experientialist” philosophy through music—acknowledging heartflutters, embracing tears, walking with integrity through vulnerability, and clinging to sincerity even in parting. “Farewells spoken too often / Holding this moment feels like a stroke of luck”—these lyrics capture a youth's serenity and appreciation in the face of parting. Rather than fixating on outcomes, each encounter and choice is embraced as life's “enough.” Li Yuting writes of farewells, yet sings of affirmation: “At some moment unknown to us / We were each other's steadfast choice.” This song is for everyone who has lingered in life, and for the self that keeps moving forward after every earnest goodbye.

Composed, written, and performed entirely by her, the song uses drum beats to gently knock on the heart's door, guitar to sketch emotions, and bass to lay down depth. Within its simple yet sincere arrangement, it conveys the profound affection and clarity characteristic of the post-00s generation. The dialogue between drums and guitar mirrors heartbeat and breath, while bass surges like memory's undercurrent in the background—together creating dramatic tension of “clutching tightly what's about to slip away.” Eschewing grand narratives, it transforms everyday embraces into enduring longing through the most sincere voice.

We've all been cherished in love,

Unconcerned with tomorrow, only this moment,

“Let me hold you tight.”
