The official music video for "Hold My Hand" was uploaded to Glynne's own YouTube channel on 23 February 2015 and was directed by Emil Nava. In the Californian desert, mostly at sunset, Glynne rides an SUV and sings while encircled by dirt bikes, and also on a large truck. She and her friends enjoy a campfire and dance freely. == Usage in media ==

Since late 2015, it has been featured in advertisements for Jet2holidays, as well as being used for various in-aircraft announcements with Jet2.com. In 2025, the song's use in Jet2's advertising campaigns, featuring a voiceover by Zoë Lister, gained attention as a viral social media audio often juxtaposed in irony with clips of holiday mishaps. Glynne and Lister were interviewed by Capital, with the former describing the song's resurgence with the associated campaign a "massive surprise". On 30 July, the White House's official Twitter account posted a video showing the deportation of multiple alleged undocumented immigrants with the sound and captioned "When ICE books you a one-way Jet2 holiday to deportation. Nothing beats it!". The clip was criticised, with Glynne herself responding: "This post honestly makes me sick. My music is about love, unity, and spreading positivity – never about division or hate". Both Jet2holidays and Lister have also condemned the usage of the song as well. The song was previously used in an advertisement for Coca-Cola in 2015, while also featured on the original soundtrack for the 2016 film ''Bridget Jones's Baby''. ==Track listing==
