Touch is the third studio album by British pop duo Eurythmics, released on 14 November 1983[4] by RCA Records. It became the duo's first number-one album on the UK Albums Chart, and also peaked at number seven on the US Billboard 200. It has since been certified Platinum in both the United Kingdom and the United States.[5][6] The album spawned the singles "Who's That Girl?", "Right by Your Side" and "Here Comes the Rain Again", all of which reached the top 10 of the UK Singles Chart.

The album was listed 500th on Rolling Stone's "The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time" in 2003, and again on a revised list in 2012, at number 492.[1]
