I've wanted a karaoke version of this song for a looooong time, but have never seen it anywhere.

Same here. I'm a huge Kansas fan. A few years ago when I started doing this I was surprised that no one had created a commercial karaoke version of "Hold On," which was a top 40 hit in 1980 and got a lot of radio play on FM rock stations at the time. So......I made my own using Power Karaoke's CD+G Creator. I can't use it at public KJ gigs but I like breaking it out at house parties - no one ever recognizes it. It's a great karaoke song, though, because the intro is short, the whole tune is very dramatic, and you sing right up to the end with no long, awkward outro (like another, more famous Kansas song that shall remain nameless....). Seems to me with all the filler and clunkers that find their way onto karaoke discs that "Hold On" would have been released at some point. Kansas still plays the song in concert to this day.

Anyway, Sing-Magic.com does have "Hold On" in its library but their songs are only playable on their proprietary software player and it's only licensed for private home use. But it's the only game in town if you want a commercially released karaoke version. Sing-Magic also has a ton of karaoke versions of other obscure rock and prog rock songs that don't exist anywhere else.
