Line 29:

"'''Hello, Hello, I'm Back Again'''" is a song by English [[glam rock]] singer [[Gary Glitter]], written by Glitter with [[Mike Leander]] and produced by Mike Leander. The title of the song is only sung once and as a result other more frequent sung lines have become alternative titles, these include "It's Good to Be Back" and "Did You Miss Me?". Sometimes the title is shortened to simply "Hello, Hello".

==Background==

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... 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!)".
