"Your Touch" came off Magic Potion, the Black Keys' fourth album, and in 2006 it also fronted its own release, Your Touch - The EP. Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney wrote, produced and recorded it themselves: Auerbach sings and stacks up guitars, regular, slide, lap steel and 12-string, while Carney handles the drums and percussion. It's garage rock with the grease left on, raw and stomping and in no mood to apologize.
Complex and Paste have both ranked it seventh among the band's best songs, and it has enjoyed a long second life on screens big and small: the 2009 film Zombieland, HBO's Eastbound and Down and Entourage, a trailer for Battleship, and the video games Major League Baseball 2K10 and Driver: San Francisco.
