I think it's not listed in the soundtrack.

Was it 'Great Balls of Fire"?

I don't think so, it was something like techno.

Was it "the Green Green Grass of Home"? in the Club where they were doing Karaoke?

No, it played when father Greg went clubbing to find himself a guy and met Graham.

ohhhhhh.... , ok now I know when you mean. Sorry I can't help with that one? But as you said before it sounds sort of techno huh? I will have to watch it again and try to figure it out! Cheers :) :)

I think it had the words "Touch me", I think it was a gay anthem of the time. It gets replied in the communion scene flahback as I recall.

Some of the lyrics are "touch me now/need your body/see me now/watching you".

I love that song. I would love to know the title & artist of the song. I've been looking but I haven't found anything.

I know this was 9 years ago, but since I first saw the movie back in 1995 or 1996, I've been looking for that song. Finally found some info on it, but unfortunately, it's not available anywhere. Here's what Andy Roberts, the composer of the score, said about it on his website:

"...So when it came to the gay club scene, with a segue into the lovemaking immediately after, I decided to save money by writing a short club-style song that would fit the action, which I sang. It was all recorded in my flat in Battersea, where I had a modest studio in the second bedroom! I just used sung phrases to suit the glances between the guys in the club, “Touch me now, want your body, see me now, watching you”, etc."

Here's the website with his full answer regarding the song and soundtrack of Priest: http://www.andyrobertsmusic.com/new_guestbook.html
