KATSEYE is fully in “TOUCH” as a girl group, as the six-member squad took the stage on The Kelly Clarkson show on Wednesday (Oct. 23) to perform their latest hit.

The group delivered the track out of the studio, on a rooftop against the Los Angeles skyline, dressed in coordinating pastel outfits and go-go boots. “You been so out of touch, touch, touch, touch, touch/ Thought about you way too much, much, much, much, much/ Over, over thinking us, us, us, us, us/ ‘Cause you been so out of touch,” they sing in the instantly catchy chorus as they delivered in-sync choreography.

“It’s such a beautiful song. We all love it,” KATSEYE’s Daniela previously told Billboardof “TOUCH,” which is featured on their recent EP, SIS (Soft Is Strong). “The song itself is like our softer side and it shows complexity of love. Filming the whole music video was such an amazing experience and recording as well. It’s ethereal and shows our softer side, but we can tap into our fierceness and our self-confidence too.”

The K-pop-inspired international girl group featuring members Sophia, Manon, Daniela, Lara, Megan and Yoonchae, were formed as part of the competition series The Debut: Dream Academy, and while they only debuted back in June, they’ve already established an impressively dedicated fanbase, known as the EYEKONS.

Kesha Brings 'Holiday Road' to The Billboard Canadian Hot 100

The newly independent pop singer's cover of Lindsay Buckingham's 1983 song from National Lampoon's Vacation was first released as a Spotify exclusive for the holidays. Michael Bublé's Christmas, meanwhile, remains at No. 1 on the Canadian Albums chart.

Kesha has brought an under-appreciated holiday gem back to the charts. Her version of "Holiday Road" debuts on this week's Billboard Canadian Hot 100 (dated Dec. 28, 2024) at No. 83.

"Holiday Road" was originally released in 1983 by Fleetwood Mac legend Lindsey Buckingham and serves as the propulsive opening theme to the Chevy Chase-starting classic comedy road trip film National Lampoon's Vacation.
