The song often segued from "Dance on Your Knees", which is the opening song of the ''Big Bam Boom'' album. The accompanying [[music video]] for "Out of Touch", featuring a gigantic drum kit, also contains the "Dance on Your Knees" intro, which segues into an edit of the 12-inch remix version.

According to John Oates, he came up with the chorus while randomly playing around with a synthesizer that he did not know how to use. He thought it could be a song for [[the Stylistics]], having a [[Philadelphia soul|Philly sound]]. But in the studio the next day a co-producer told him it should be a hit for Hall & Oates themselves. Oates and Hall then co-wrote the verse.<ref>{{Cite web|title=John Oates performs "Out of Touch" on Ditty TV|website = [[YouTube]]|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IcjKxwcWbLI |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211221/IcjKxwcWbLI |archive-date=December 21, 2021 |url-status=live}}{{cbignore}}</ref>

The song saw a revival in popularity after it appeared on the Flash FM radio station of the 2002 video game ''[[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]].'' The song is popular among GTA fans and is regarded as being synonymous with the game itself.

"Out of Touch" is a song by American duo Daryl Hall & John Oates from their twelfth studio album Big Bam Boom (1984). The song was released as the lead single from Big Bam Boom on Thursday, October 4, 1984, by RCA Records. This song was their last Billboard Hot 100 number-one single, topping the chart for two weeks in December 1984. It also became the duo's fourteenth consecutive top 40 hit since 1980.[1]

The song often segued from "Dance on Your Knees", which is the opening song of the Big Bam Boom album. The accompanying music video for "Out of Touch", featuring a gigantic drum kit, also contains the "Dance on Your Knees" intro, which segues into an edit of the 12-inch remix version.

According to John Oates, he came up with the chorus while randomly playing around with a synthesizer that he did not know how to use. He thought it could be a song for the Stylistics, having a Philly sound. But in the studio the next day a co-producer told him it should be a hit for Hall & Oates themselves. Oates and Hall then co-wrote the verse.[2]
