As a DJ, I get requests for this track CONSTANTLY. It's a great song, and the remixes are done quite well! Get this single if you want something great to dance to!!!

For those of you who seem to be hating on the fact that this chart topping track is a Hall & Oats remake, you should know that Uniting Nations is a set of DJ's. NOT vocalists. Craig Powell, the vocalist for "Out of Touch" was recruited to perform live for the band when the track blew up in the EU.

This track is a perfect example of what REALLY good DJ's can do.

A+++ guys, keep it up!

This single has been stuck in my mind for over a month now. It's insane! The song is a classic, and Uniting Nations have remixed it to be quite possibly one of the best remixes of all time. Forget the classic version with the male voice you hear all the time on the radio...that's not what I'm talking about. This version is the club version and it is TOO good. It'll make you dance! It'll make you have a party in your car! It'll make you forget everything you thought you knew about pop music and will keep you coming back for more! TOO good!

I happen to like both versions of this song, the 80s original and the remake. If you are disappointed with the remake, you ought to know better. It is NOT the original, by no means, but~ it is reworked for people like me who appreciate music from the club scene. With all the alternative and progressive trash sound today on U.S. radio, this is refreshing and different. Thanks to the Nirvana crowd and those grunge groups coming after them, America has turned away from high energy and power anthems- a popular style of music in the 90s. I PRAY FOR A RESURGENCE!!!!!!!!! Music on the airwaves these days SUCKS!!!!!!
And, they play the same thing over and over and over and over and..... AT LEAST THIS IS NEW AND OUT OF ORDINARY!!!!!!!! Not the plain mess and crap of Top 40 of the current present day

This group took one of my favorite songs and turned it into one of those drum machine me to death, copy-cat techno club type pieces of music. It's okay to listen to ONCE in a while, but not something I could stand to hear over and over again. Out Of Touch was a number one song for Hall and Oates...what did they do to it? All I can say is that if you can't sing, you don't sing Barbara Streisand songs right? Well, Uniting Nations should have stuck to something safer like Happy Birthday.

I was hugely dissappointed when I heard this reworked Hall & Oates classic on the radio/tv. It's an insult to the original artists who didn't reach the charts with this very strong song in our country (Holland) back in september 1984. They deserved it! Uniting Nations are only using the refrain of the song which is an example of simple scoring in the charts! I can understand it from a 'dance-oriented' point of view for people who like to dance on this track, but it makes me sick everytime I hear this... Everytime when I hear it I immediately need a 'cooling down' by listening to the original version. Don't buy this!
