"Touch Me (All Night Long)" was released by British singer and songwriter Cathy Dennis on 14 January 1991 as the third single from her debut studio album, Move to This (1990), where it is listed as either "Touch Me (All Night Long)" or "All Night Long (Touch Me)". Her version contained some rewritten lyrics in the verses. It was a number-one hit on the US Billboard Dance Club Songs chart.

Dennis performed the song on the season three, episode of Beverly Hills, 90210, "A Night to Remember", in 1993.[2]

In 2020, Slant Magazine placed the song at number 89 in their list of "The 100 Best Dance Songs of All Time".[3] They added,

"...Cathy Dennis made Fonda Rae's disco trifle “Touch Me (All Night Long)” her own by completely rewriting the song’s throwaway verses, imbuing a fleeting physical connection with the weight of manifest destiny. DJ extraordinaire Shep Pettibone likewise put his signature on the track by amping up the melodic hook and distinctive Roland 909 house beats, propelling it into the stratosphere of early-'90s house-pop."

Critical reception[edit]

Billboard described the song as a "house-savvy rendition of the Fonda Rae disco nugget." He added that it is a "fine showcase for Dennis's bright and chirpy vocal style."[4] BuzzFeed listed the song at number 19 in their list of "The 101 Greatest Dance Songs of the '90s" in 2017.[5] Dave Sholin from the Gavin Report commented that "after hearing this track, there's every reason to believe she'll be travelling up the chart again." He also added that as co-writer and co-producer, "this exciting vocalist creates mature dance music that can entertain young and older audiences alike."[6] James Hamilton from Music Week deemed it a "breezy Fonda Rae revival".[7]

Chart performance[edit]

"Touch Me (All Night Long)" peaked at number one in Zimbabwe, number nine in Canada, number five in the United Kingdom and number three in Ireland. In the United States, "Touch Me" reached number two on the Billboard Hot 100 on the week of 18 May 1991, behind Hi-Five's "I Like the Way (The Kissing Game)" and Mariah Carey's "I Don't Wanna Cry". In addition, "Touch Me" spent one week at the top of the US Dance Club Songs chart in March 1991, becoming her biggest hit in the country.

Music video[edit]

The accompanying music video for “Touch Me (All Night Long)" was directed by Rocky Morton and Annabel Jankel. It was later published on YouTube in July 2018. By September 2020, the video had more than 904,000 views.[8]

Fonda Rae Wood (performing as simply Fonda Rae) is an American R&B singer best known for her club hits like "Over Like a Fat Rat" and "Touch Me" (the latter which was later covered by Cathy Dennis).[1][2]

She has also worked with artists such as Don Armando, Kid Creole and the Coconuts, Taka Boom, The Fat Boys and Debbie Harry.[3]
