"Touch, Peel and Stand" is a song by the rock band Days of the New and the lead single from their self-titled debut album. It was released in 1997 and remains arguably the band's most popular and well known song. The song reached #1 on the ''Billboard'' Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and retained the spot for a then-record sixteen weeks. On their list of Top Mainstream Rock Songs of the Decade, the song ranked in at #8 for '97 and #4 for '98.〔("Top Mainstream Rock Songs Of The Decade" ) AllBusiness.com (December 3, 1999). Retrieved on April 12, 2008.〕 Shortly after this success, the song rose to #6 on the ''Billboard'' Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart, becoming their first Top 10 hit on the chart. "Touch, Peel and Stand" is known for its raw, acoustic feel and maintains considerable radio play to this day. Despite the fact that Travis Meeks writes all songs by Days of the New, and considers it his own personal project, he has praised Matt Taul's cymbal-heavy percussion in the song. In a 2008 interview, Meeks noted, "As far as I’m concerned, he owns the track."〔Herron, Matt ("You're talking to a miracle - Travis Meeks heals one piece at a time" ) LEOWeekly.com (July 16, 2008).

This depicts the ''Wrestling Superstars'' figure of George "The Animal" Steele. The rubber figure is heavily battered with both his head and left arm torn off. ==Music video== The music video for "Touch, Peel and Stand", directed by Frank W. Ockenfels 3,〔http://www.mtv.com/videos/days-of-the-new/738307/touch-peel-and-stand.jhtml〕 has a disgruntled young man (Lead Singer Travis Meeks' friend Levi Sulivan) watching TV in a filthy, rundown house. On the TV screen, the band is performing the song in a gray, open-spaced room and appears to acknowledge the man through the screen. He eventually becomes enraged and tosses furniture around the room before entering the bathroom and cutting off his long hair and shaving his head bald. Photos of the band are seen throughout his house. The man is eventually seen, with clothes neatly tucked in, facing a closed curtain while the band continues to perform in the TV screen.
