Out of Touch

I don't see you very often any more so I have to move on cause my soul is so alone. Winter is here and you are gone and not coming back so I definitely need somebody to snuggle with to be warm on the cool cool nights. Stay calm and carry on Babe.

Why do they allow both a "Hall& Oates" and a "Hall and Oates"? Come on, staff.

This is about the life going by too fast.
"Shake it up is all that we know Using the bodies up as we go Waking up to fantasy' We're out of touch with the world, living in a fantasy... He wants this girl.. but shes out of touch, she doesnt realize he wants her. Thats my interpretation. Great song! Downloaded it by accident one time, and listened to it all the way to Cali!

This is one of my favorite all time songs. . .and guess what. . .BINGO! It's about Star Wars! Empire Strikes Back to be specific. It's undeniable. Let's begin: "shake it up is all that we know," is Han Solo talking to Princess Leia about them fighting all the time, "using up the bodies as we go," refers to how exhausting that tension is for them. "Broken ice still melts in the sun" is obviously a line about Han and Leia beginning a relationship on the ice planet of Hoth. "Times that are broken. . ." this is talking about their experience on Cloud City of Bespin when Han is being tortured by Vader and prepared for carbonite freezing. The chorus is actually about this as well. "You're out of touch," at first glance appears to be about being out of touch with reality or some crazy damn thing, but in fact it points to the fact that when Han is being lowered into the freezing chamber, he can't touch Leia--a very emotionally painful prospect. And, he's "out of time?" Hall and Oates couldn't have made it more obvious, folks! "Looking for love where the climate is cold" has double meaning as Han and Leia work through their sexual tension on Hoth (a cold planet) and Leia would rather kiss a Wookie (her cold heart). "Manic moves and drowsy dreams" is clearly talking about Han navigating through the asteroid field then coming to rest on one of the bigger ones. "Smoking guns hot to the touch" is a direct reference to Han trying to blast Vader at Cloud City. "Too much" I agree! Hall and Oates have clearly written an epic tune about an epic movie!

I always received this song to mean he's got a crazy girlfriend and he's at the end of his rope waiting for her to get better. I had a bipolar gf, and this song hits really close to my experience during that time. She's out of touch, he's out of patience.

this song is incredibly catchy, and i love it...

vice city is fun as well

yes! i second what stoolhardy has just said^

Sigh, meeting John Oates was the greatest day of my life!

Guys... It's so obv about smoking speed... They wake up with drawn blinds, they are "Out of touch, out of time" Time being a common slang, but also literal in reference to the warped perception of how much time passes on speed.

"Broken ice still meltsin the sun" Yea

"Smoking gun, hot too the touch, it's cool down if we would nt use it so much" FeeFeeling guilty about constant smoking of dopepipe, "hot too th touch"

But it would cool down if we didn't keep doing it anyway.

Fuck. Y'all thick.

This song is sooo good. I love it in Vice City. Great Game...Great Song!!!!
