A new three-part documentary about soft rock is coming to Paramount+, Variety reports. It’s titled Sometimes When We Touch and it hits the streaming platform on Tuesday, January 3. Watch the teaser trailer for it below; scroll down for the documentary’s poster.
Subtitled The Reign, Ruin and Resurrection of Soft Rock, the documentary digs into the history of the genre, which boomed in commercial popularity from the seventies through the early eighties. Sometimes When We Touch also features commentary from Kenny Loggins, L.A. Reid, Sheryl Crow, Susanna Hoffs, and more.
MTV Entertainment Studios co-produced Sometimes When We Touch with the studio Gunpowder & Sky. It focuses on performers like Hall & Oates, Loggins, Lionel Richie, Air Supply, and Michael McDonald, among others. Richie, who had solo hits with soft rock cuts like “Hello” and “Truly,” was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame earlier this year.

they'd BETTER spend a LOT of time on 70s era stuff too, cuz that was the peak soft rock era (imo). right now, based on the description, seems like they're leaning 'almost exclusively' into the 80s more, which would be a mistake.
i haven't watched the trailer yet, only read the article description where it also lists some of the artists that contributed.
