Subject: Dan Hill (All Decades)

Written By: whistledog on 12/23/05 at 10:32 am

"Sometimes When We Touch" hit #13 in the UK in 1978.  It was his only UK Top 40 hit, but I don't know about non Top 40

Dan also appears alongside many Canadians on the 1985 charity single "Tears Are Not Enough" by Northern Lights.  It hit #1 in Canada, and appears on the historic "We Are the World" album :)

Sometimes When We Touch
Don't Give Up on Love
Can't We Try
Never Thought (That I Could Love)
I Fall All Over Again
Is it Really Love
Hold Me Now

Sometimes When We Touch is the only song I've heard of.

I love Dan Hill.  I have to pick "Sometimes When We Touch" because it's the first song of his that I ever knew and it's attached to some good memories.

For right now I only know "Sometimes When We Touch", which was used a couple years or so ago in a Geico commercial.

I amended the first post with his US (incomplete; lacking chart peaks for three songs) and Canadian discography :)

My favourites have always been "Love in the Shadows" and "Helpless" followed very closely by everything else.  I've been getting more into his 90s hits lately.  The re-make of "Sometimes When We Touch" is fantastic! 8)
