The Ting Tings launched "Hands" in 2010, a dance-pop jolt written by the English duo's Katie White and Jules De Martino, produced by De Martino and mixed by their label-mate Calvin Harris. It premiered on Huw Stephens's show on BBC Radio 1 before going to radio on 18 August 2010, and a free remix followed on the band's Facebook page that October. De Martino opens the track with a spoken line that nods to the start of David Bowie's "Modern Love".
At the Wireless Festival they brought on dancers holding signs that read "work" and flipped around to read "dance". The single entered the UK chart at 29.
