Released in March 1976, Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again was the band’s first single as The Angels. Originally an acoustic ensemble, the track marked a new, sharper, more rock-and-roll version of the band.

Written by Doc Neeson, Rick Brewster, and John Brewster, and produced by Vanda & Young, the song was initially recorded as a ballad before the band re-recorded it as a rock song. Upon its 1976 release, the single reached #58 on the Australian charts and stayed on the charts for 19 weeks.

In January 1988, a live version of the song was released to promote The Angels’ live album, Live Line. The live version features the iconic call-and-response, “No way, get fucked, fuck off,” whose origin is unknown but is believed to have started in blue-light discos in the early ‘80s. That version peaked at #11 on the Australian Singles Chart.

After the call-and-response became a part of their shows, the band’s late, iconic singer Doc Neeson remarked that Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again had “become the audience’s song” and it didn’t “belong to the band anymore.”

Last year, Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again was voted #12 in the triple j Hottest 100 of Australian Songs.
