    "You Still Touch Me" is a song by the English musician Sting, released as the second single from his fifth studio album Mercury Falling. Featuring a distinct soul influence, the song reached number 27 in Sting's native UK, becoming the second of three singles from the album to reach the top 40.[2]

    Background

    [edit]

    Much like "Let Your Soul Be Your Pilot", "You Still Touch Me" was influenced by soul musicians such as Otis Redding and Marvin Gaye and was intended as a homage to soul music in general.[3] Sting described the track as "a standard song of love and loss".[3]

    "You Still Touch Me" peaked at number 27 in the UK, marking a downward turn from Sting's previous single.[2] In the US, it reached number 60, an improvement over "Let Your Soul Be Your Pilot", which peaked at number 86.[4] Much like the previous single, "You Still Touch Me" was most successful in Canada, matching its predecessor's number 7 placement.[4]
