Sometimes When We Touch – Dan Hill
“Sometimes When We Touch” is a soft rock ballad written by Canadian singer-songwriter Dan Hill. The song was released in 1977 and became an international hit, reaching number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States.
The song’s lyrics express the powerful and complex emotions that can arise in romantic relationships. The opening lines, “You ask me if I love you, and I choke on my reply,” set the tone for the song’s heartfelt and emotive exploration of love and vulnerability.
“Sometimes When We Touch” features a simple but effective melody that allows Hill’s distinctive voice to shine. The song’s arrangement is sparse, with acoustic guitar and piano providing a gentle backdrop for Hill’s vocals.
The song has since become a classic of the soft rock genre, and has been covered by many other artists over the years. The song’s enduring popularity is a testament to Hill’s skill as a songwriter and his ability to capture the complexities and nuances of human emotion in his music.
