"Body Talks" kicks off the Struts' second album, Young & Dangerous, and went out as its lead single in June 2018, a strutting slice of the English band's glam rock. Luke Spiller and Adam Slack wrote it with producers Lauren Christy and Jon Levine; Spiller sings lead, Slack plays guitar, Jed Elliott is on bass, Gethin Davies on drums, and Neal Avron mixed.
Two weeks later it came back as a duet with Kesha, a version that also made the album as its 13th track. Spiller said she's a rock and roller at heart who loves the Stones and plenty of British bands, so the connection came naturally once she heard the song; Kesha praised the band for keeping classic rock's wild spirit going and summed the song up as being about her favorite pastime, boogieing.
