Info "Touch" (help·info)

"Touch" is an R&B–crunk song written by American singer-songwriter Amerie, Sean Garrett, Craig Love, LaMarquis Jefferson, Jonathan "Lil Jon" Smith, and James Phillips for Amerie's second studio album, Touch (2005). Released as the album's second and final single during the third quarter of 2005 (see 2005 in music), the song was produced by Lil Jon, and reached the top twenty in Ireland and the United Kingdom, and number thirty-three in Australia. However, "Touch" failed to repeat the success of "1 Thing" in the United States, missing the Billboard Hot 100 and only reaching number ninety-five on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs.

[edit] Music video

The single's music video, directed by Chris Robinson, was shot on a jungle set in California. It starts out with Amerie emerging from the bushes with her dancers. They then proceed into a club barefooted, performing intricate choreography. Throughout most of the video she is dancing and it ends with her returning to the jungle to conclude her dance sequence. There is also a video for the song's official remix featuring rapper T.I.
