"Everytime We Touch" is a song recorded by Maggie Reilly for her 1992 album Echoes. The song was produced by Armand Volker and recorded under the label of Mambo Musik. It was a major hit in Europe in the 1990s, reaching #1 chart position in Norway and helped increase her profile as an independent artist — back in the 1980s she was known mostly for her contribution of the female vocals in the hit song "Moonlight Shadow" by Mike Oldfield and many other Oldfield's albums.
