"The Touch" is a song by the English pop singer Kim Wilde. It was the second single to be released from her fourth studio album Teases & Dares (1984). Released in November 1984, it peaked at #56 on the UK Singles Chart.

"The Touch" was released as both a 7" and a 12" single. The 7" had a remix of the album version on side A, and a track written by Wilde herself on side B entitled "Shangri-La", also from the Teases & Dares album. Both tracks were extended for the 12" release. It also featured in the soundtrack of the American teen romantic comedy film Secret Admirer (1985).
