The song is about a man calling his lover after being away for some time and begins with "Did you miss me (yeah), while I was away?", with "Hello, hello, it's good to be back..., Goodit's good to be back" sung repeatedly in the chorus. It peaked at No. 2 on the [[UK Singles Chart]] and charted in several other countries and remained a popular oldie for decades. It was also often sung at football matches, with the lyrics "Hello, hello" (insert team name) "are back". The song has been featured on a number of Glitter [[Compilation album|compilation]] and [[live album]]s since, as well as his second [[studio album]], ''[[Touch Me (Gary Glitter album)|Touch Me]]'' (1973). In 1995 the song returned to the UK charts when Glitter re-recorded it, under the title "Hello, Hello, I'm Back Again (Again!)".
