This song is how you find out if there are Australians in the room. Anywhere in the world, say 'Am I ever gonna see your face again?' & if there's an Aussie anywhere nearby you'll get the response
You have no idea just how many people in Australia (like me) over the last 40 years who will be in their cars, this song comes on the radio and we scream out, "no way, get f**ked, f**k off". For us you cannot listen to this song without yelling this phrase at least once. Aussie's being aussies.
These guys are still touring but with the awesome Dave Gleeson from the Screaming Jets out front instead of our beloved Doc Neeson RIP 💔 Really loved your reaction, the moment you realised what the crowd was shouting was priceless
There is a catch cry that our Australian test cricket team recite after every win “ Under the Southern Cross I stand a sprig of wattle in my hand a native of my native land ……. AUSTRALIA YOU FUCKEN BEAUTY “
Yes mate we love a sing back song for the crowds, as this started off as a joke it gained to an anthem for our Angels. We have the same with the song "Living Next Door To Alice" by Smokie where the come back is "Alice? Who The Fuck is Alice?". One of the best live acts I had the pleasure of enjoying sadly those days are fading now but the memories of The Angels will live with me forever RIP Doc Neeson Ty mate glad you enjoyed. Keep Safe Keep Strong 🦘🦘🦘🦘🎶🎶🎶🎶💖💖💖💖
Newcastle Workers club in the 1980s (before it fell down in the earthquake), and the Angels live, best concerts ever! Standing at the back of the auditorium with the sound so lound your clothes thumped against your body. People up the front near the speakers with blood coming out of their ears. Doing so many encores that the staff had to turn the lights on to get the band to stop playing! Great memories. R.I.P. Doc Neeson!
I saw these guys in the 80s in Queensland and they were banned singing this song. At the end of the concert everyone wanted this song so people blocked the entry and exits because the police were outside the building listening so the band could be arrested and they played the song and everyone went crazy. The police did come in after and the crowd pushed them out and they police couldn’t get one statement from the public. This was before mobile phones so the police didn’t have any proof so they just left. I talked to one cop and he too thought it was a ridiculous law and loved the band himself so he was laughing that the police couldn’t arrest the band.
I remember when i was working at my local RSL & the band on that night started this song & my manager came sprinting out the office waving his arms yelling NO! NO! lol.
This song was about his friend who died, but some smartass replied and it caught on, Doc hated the reply for a bit but it is catchy and makes the song legendary.
The addition to the song was started by kids at a Blue Light Disco (run by police to keep the kids out of trouble) in rural Queensland. Spread around the country like wildfire.
I'll question that and say it started well before then, but it was a slightly different version and was changed. I'm in Melbourne, and in January 1979, at a mates 16th birthday party, that was held in the scout hall where we both went to Scouts, his parents rented the hall for the party. The DJ played "see your face again," and a large group of us in a circle doing what could only be described as a bad attempt of something that looked like a Zorba the Greek dance to the song were all responding with the words "No Way Get Stuffed Fk Off" and I remember it well and we both still laugh about the look of shock horror on the face of his mother and aunties, the laughter from his dad and uncles and the women then telling off their husbands for laughing at what we were doing. Therefore, there was a response to the song, though a slightly different version of it that was occurring in Melbourne in 1978 and was being used in blue light and under age discos back then. As to when I first heard the current response of the "No Way Get Fked Fk Off" version in Melbourne, it would be about 1981
This is apparently a song about a girl he knew that died. The audience part was adopted at some point and if you ever say "am I ever gunna see your face again", the only Aussie reply is "no way, get f$%ked, f$%k off"
I've seen them at Reactor One at Panthers back 32 yrs ago now. I remember being up front fighting for my spot next to a big solid built guy with his arms around his gf. 😂 I was a lot smaller than him but I held my ground. 😜
Oh what fun, a classic! Someone was talking about this the other day! They weren't sure it was Australian! Definitely! No way ................. ! Great! 👍 Another great live band, thanks! 😃
There’s also an AC/DC song (sorry I can’t remember the name of it) but the original words “it’s a long way to the top if you want to rock and roll” and that part was replaced by Australian crowds with “it’s a long way to the shop if you want a sausage roll.”
You should react to a TISM song . I recommend He’ll Never Be An Old Man River , Whatareya , Apathy or Defecate On My Face . TISM are are legendary Aussie band that it’s impossible to describe .
Lead singer Doc Neeson was in the army for a few years. When they performed in the middle east for the troops other nations soldiers were able to attend. Apparently the Aussie troops audience participation caught the others by surprise Especially the yanks who had no idea WTF was happening.
In 1977 there were 14m people in Australia. In 2023 there are 16m people that were there when the chant started !!! Tragedy is this song was about a highschool friend of Doc's who unalived herself and this was Doc lamenting that he never got to say goodbye.
This song blew my mind and now I will always sing the swear words I cannot right them down they will not come up but look at the lead singer tank top it will have the words that the audience say I give this song 5stars
I think you would like the Radiators Mikey, they are a band from western Sydney (from where I hail) that were big in the late 70's to mid 80's and still kick about today, very cheeky songs that would probably be considered offensive to some these days........right up your alley lol give the fess song a run (fess being the guitarists nic-name) or probably there most famous song Gimme Head. 🤭
The Audience replies is nothing to do with the band apparently the first time the heard it they were taken back thinking they were being heckled. It apparently came from a Blue Light Disco (under aged disco run by the police.) and the DJ would stop at the appropriate time a scream the response. Apparently the song is about a friend how passed
Not a polite crowd response. I'm surprised CZcams allow you to make deal of it. Not polite Mike. These guys started out as the REed Angels from St. Morris, Adelaide, my city. I used to deliver milk as a kid at their address.
G'day mate.They were playing in a pub in Mt Isa in Queensland a mining town out west. When a man yelled back to the band. No way get fucked fuck off and it stuck. That's where the word's/reply comes from. Back in the 70's & 80's all bands played the pub circuit, that's where they got there reputation/name from. Have a good day mate.👍🌏
This song is how you find out if there are Australians in the room. Anywhere in the world, say 'Am I ever gonna see your face again?' & if there's an Aussie anywhere nearby you'll get the response
So true 😅😅😅
No way, get F’ed, F off!👍🏼
Can confirm!
Or Kiwi

And grannies next to you at the lights are shocked. Frigging Beautiful
@@paulfernandez3747 Heck no, the grannies are shouting it out too.
Omg I love seeing Reactors when the penny finally drops what the audience is singing 😆 ❤️🇦🇺👍🏼
Julz it’s priceless 😂

Took a couple of minutes though. Hilarious 😂

RIP Doc, one of my favourite Aussie bands

Living next door to Alice is originally by the Australian band New World and was released in 1972. Smokies version is a cover released in 1976.
It isn't actually in the studio recording Australian just added it in and it became a part of our culture
Beyond awesome performance 🎉❤ rip Doc
Yrs ago 1 audience member yelled it out at a concert drunk, since then it stuck and the band loved it
Yep. This is all it took. One drunk yelling from the back and Australia grabbed it with both hands. Brilliant.
Classic Aussie pub rock band - saw them many times - those were the days!

I knew you'd like this one. Took a while but you got it. That was fun.

Saw them live more than once. They were fricking brilliant!! R.I.P. Doc Neeson, you are a legend!!
This song was about his friend who died, but some smartass replied and it caught on, Doc hated the reply for a bit but it is catchy and makes the song legendary.
Can see the cheeky side to it, like the spirit of the girl answering.
Have lost count of the number of times I’ve seen the Angels. They always rock
Ahhh the good old days . St marys band club or footy hill rsl lol love it thanks Mike
Been patiently waiting for you to discover this!
Absolutely love your reaction to this great Aussie song Mikey
Hooray! It’s the naughty version 🤣😁👍❤️🇦🇺 btw the lead singer is Doc Neeson who is no longer with us. May he RIP! 😔🇦🇺
There is also an audience reaction to Living Next Door to Alice. Good fun vid
The addition to the song was started by kids at a Blue Light Disco (run by police to keep the kids out of trouble) in rural Queensland. Spread around the country like wildfire.
I was going to talk about this. It definitely came from the crowd, and the BLD checks out.
Blue Light Disco being a party for kids, no booze.
True, according to Doc Neeson it started in the mining town of Mount Isa in northwest Queensland.
@@RobNMelbourne Yup I'm from the Isa... this is where it all began. lol
I'll question that and say it started well before then, but it was a slightly different version and was changed.
I'm in Melbourne, and in January 1979, at a mates 16th birthday party, that was held in the scout hall where we both went to Scouts, his parents rented the hall for the party.

As to when I first heard the current response of the "No Way Get Fked Fk Off" version in Melbourne, it would be about 1981
I loved your reaction when you finally realised what the crowd were singing. Bloody funny. Glad you liked it !
You belong to Australia Mike, it's your calling, your destiny. Seriously, who am I to tell someone that. Love ya mate!
It was started in mt isa when the angels went there in the mid 80's, I was that the time
This is apparently a song about a girl he knew that died. The audience part was adopted at some point and if you ever say "am I ever gunna see your face again", the only Aussie reply is "no way, get f$%ked, f$%k off"
G'day, several music reviewers have the same reaction as you when they work out the words.
Saw them at the small Tasmanian University bar .1980s
I've seen them at Reactor One at Panthers back 32 yrs ago now. I remember being up front fighting for my spot next to a big solid built guy with his arms around his gf. 😂 I was a lot smaller than him but I held my ground. 😜
It's that AH HA moment isn't, brings the smile to the dial . 😂
I saw The Angels a few times - they always put on a great show. Doc's early passing was very sad.
Noosa Aussie Hop 1984 they were the headline act sheer brilliance
Oh what fun, a classic! Someone was talking about this the other day! They weren't sure it was Australian! Definitely! No way ................. ! Great! 👍 Another great live band, thanks! 😃
the "no way get F'd, F off" part isn't a part of the original lyrics, it was literally added to the song by pub crowds
That is so Aussie! Started in pubs. I don't know if the band started it but I think the crowd participation started in the crowd first.
There’s also an AC/DC song (sorry I can’t remember the name of it) but the original words “it’s a long way to the top if you want to rock and roll” and that part was replaced by Australian crowds with “it’s a long way to the shop if you want a sausage roll.”
Yeah,love it 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Rest in peace Doc Neeson (the lead singer)
Great Aussie wedding/divorce song...
angels were big here in the 80's i went to a lot of the gigs. Shame doc the lead singer passed away
You should react to a TISM song .
I recommend He’ll Never Be An Old Man River , Whatareya , Apathy or Defecate On My Face .
TISM are are legendary Aussie band that it’s impossible to describe .
There gos ya g rating
RIP Doc Neeson. Old Newy Workers underage in the auditorium b4 the earthquake that bought it crashing down. Great show.
The live version of this song was banned off the radio lol made people want to sing it more
Lead singer Doc Neeson was in the army for a few years.
When they performed in the middle east for the troops other nations soldiers were able to attend. Apparently the Aussie troops audience participation caught the others by surprise
Especially the yanks who had no idea WTF was happening.
Yay...you played thw version that is how all aussies sing this song now.
In 1977 there were 14m people in Australia.
In 2023 there are 16m people that were there when the chant started !!!
Tragedy is this song was about a highschool friend of Doc's who unalived herself and this was Doc lamenting that he never got to say goodbye.
An anthem from my youth 😊 You should listen to 'Give me head' by The Radiators
Another blue light disco classic
@@karlrichmond7754😂😂😂
Yes! That’d be awesome 👏🏻
Gimme head. Radiators.
Nice legs . Shame about the face 😅
The rads are still playing. Still sounding great.
could you plz do a reaction to .... Austen Tayshus - Australiana .... absolute australian classic
I had that singlet Doc is wearing.. is this at Waverley Oval around 1988? .. If so i was there 🙂
This song blew my mind and now I will always sing the swear words I cannot right them down they will not come up but look at the lead singer tank top it will have the words that the audience say I give this song 5stars
Shaddup a your face 😀
This is a really good song. It is worth listening to a better recording.

I wish this was the Australian National Anthem.

Vale Bernard 'Doc' Neeson
Now Tim Minchin
If you've had a shitty day, play this and sing along. You'll feel a lot better.
didnt know George Calombaris was good on guitar
🤣🤣 sure looks like George except I think he’s only about 5’ tall lol.
Not a polite crowd response. I'm surprised CZcams allow you to make deal of it. Not polite Mike. These guys started out as the REed Angels from St. Morris, Adelaide, my city. I used to deliver milk as a kid at their address.
Not polite , but very Australian.
Doc was crook at this gig, sounded terrible. But still going for it though
G'day mate.They were playing in a pub in Mt Isa in Queensland a mining town out west. When a man yelled back to the band. No way get fucked fuck off and it stuck.
