"Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Over again" is an Australian rock song written past Doctor Neeson, John Brewster and Rick Brewster,[3] and performed by their group, the Angels.[4] [5] The song was initially recorded as a carol in March 1976 but subsequently re-released equally a rock song. The vocal reached number 58 on the Australian charts and stayed on the charts for nineteen weeks.

A live single was released in January 1988 as the lead single from Alive Line. The alive version features the expletive-laden audience response, "No Way, Become Fucked, Fuck Off".[6] This dirge has been described past The Guardian 'south Darryl Mason every bit "ane of the most famous in Australian stone history".[7] The single peaked at number 11 on the Kent Music Report.

In January 2018, every bit role of Triple Thousand's "Ozzest 100", the 'most Australian' songs of all time, "Am I Ever Gonna Run across Your Face Again" was ranked number 11.[8]

History [edit]

Neeson said that the vocal was originally written as an acoustic ballad almost grief and loss. The girlfriend of Neeson's friend was killed in a motorbike collision, and the ii friends were discussing life after death. The conversation inspired Neeson to write the lyrics. References to subjects similar Santa Fe and Renoir came from Neeson's ain experiences.[9]

After British band Condition Quo discovered numerous similarities between the song and ane of their own ("Lone Nighttime"), the two bands reached an agreement in lieu of a lawsuit that saw Status Quo receive royalties from "Am I Always Gonna Run into Your Confront Again".[10] Status Quo bassist Alan Lancaster was friends with members of the Angels at the time of the incident, and lived adjacent door to John Brewster. In 2015, Brewster recounted having asked Neeson whether the song could've been based on "Alone Night" and recalls a non-committal response: "I might take heard it at a disco".

Call and response [edit]

Band: Am I always gonna encounter your confront again?
Audition: No way! Get fucked! Fuck off!

The famous response to the question posed in the chorus was not developed by the ring.[eleven] [6] [12] Neeson recalled that he first heard the response at Mount Isa in 1983 and was "a bit shocked."[xiii] Thinking information technology was a criticism of the band, he asked audience members near it. They responded that the dirge had its origins at a disco in Sydney where the DJ would turn downwards the volume to encourage the audience response.[7] [six]

Although it is a famous audience chant in Australian rock music history, the exact origins of it are lost.[14] In May 2014 Rick Brewster opined, "I don't recollect it will ever exist solved because too many people put their hand up and said 'I started it' and we don't believe any of information technology. We just call back it'south funny, it's the bush-league telegraph really. The whole country was doing it and then we found when we went overseas the people in America were doing it also."[xiii] Neeson noted that "it's become the audience's vocal, it doesn't belong to the band anymore".[9]

The song and its response take get an iconic part of Australian civilisation, such that the song may be played by any band anywhere in Commonwealth of australia with the dirge sung by whatever crowds are present.[xi] [13]

In 1999, Neeson performed the song during a "Tour of Duty concert" for Australian troops in East Timor. The audience responded with the chant while Commonwealth of australia's Governor-General, so commander of the INTERFET forces in East timor, Peter Cosgrove, Due east Timorese spokesman Jose Ramos Horta and Roman Catholic Bishop Belo were in attendance. When asked by Bishop Belo what the oversupply was singing, Cosgrove responded "Well Lord Bishop I really can't quite make it out," calculation in a retelling of the story, "And so Ramos Horta looked at me and I could tell that he could go far out!"[15]
