The Slightest Touch
Five Star Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, the slightest touch
Oh, the slightest touch

I thought I knew how to handle my emotions
Until you lit the fuse that triggered the explosion
Mm, you turn me on with the power of electric love
And now I can't get enough
Turn the voltage up

The slightest touch
And I go crazy with desire
The slightest touch
Can bring me to my knees, yeah
Watch what you touch
'Cause I'm a real live wire
And the slightest touch
Is heavy on me
So so heavy

You turn me into a raving maniac
Like a locomotive, you keep me on the right track
Mm, you got my senses tuned to your remote control
You put a spark in my soul
Now I'm too hot to hold

The slightest touch
And I go crazy with desire
The slightest touch
Can bring me to my knees, yeah
Watch what you touch
'Cause I'm a real live wire
And the slightest touch
Is heavy on me
So heavy

There's one thing
That you should know
I'm about to lose
My self-control
So come a little closer
No, closer than that!
Touch me just one time

The slightest touch
And I go crazy with desire
The slightest touch
Can bring me to my knees, yeah
Watch what you touch
'Cause I'm a real live wire




And the slightest touch
Is heavy on me

Never understood how the hell 5-star never cracked the US ? They seemed to have everything... The Looks, The moves, The catchy tunes...baffling to this day.

Karen Aldred

All i can think of is they must have had a bad manager

littlegee

I cant name a single black pop band nowadays, certainly not one that has any credible r&b music. What happened to the industry?

Matthew Prince

@Karen Aldred 1) do you think the Americans wanted some upstart group from the UK scoring hits in their charts and outselling them? 2) their dad managed them and upset a lot of UK execs with his business practices. They were rich, but overworked and overexposed and the music scene was moving to tougher gangster rap, house and grunge. So they went to America instead and signed with Sony Music who gave them zero marketing and the dad didn't let lead singer Denise go solo. After two good albums that flopped with Sony, they went independent with two more albums and quit in 2001. There you go!

Karen Aldred

@Matthew Prince i can honestly say iv never looked into the history of this band just a shame they stopped making music they were my favourite in the 80s

geoff maxon

They should have been massive in the USA its weird looking back makes no sense
