  • I am a Falun Gong practitioner. Falun Dafa is a cultivation system in the Buddha School based on the principles of the Universe: 真 Truthfulness 善 Compassion 忍 Forbearance.

    Since 1999 it has been brutally persecuted by the CCP in China. People are being killed, tortured, put into concentration camps and have organs harvested from live people, simply because of their belief. More than 3400 Falun Gong practitioners have died at the hands of CCP in the past 12 years.

Ted Murry Mi Sex - Us all crambed in trying to get to the front of the stage No needing binoculars to see the band.

  • Ascending Angels' Aussie Amazing Anthem.

  • Awesome music..will always be a fan....

  • Pre-glam metal and just good music. Used to listen to them as kids. Luckily we didn't have to listen to the crud that's regarded as 'popular music' today. Just saying.

  • Fuck thats good.

  • Fucking hell this was (and still is) a great song

  • Doc Neeson looks nothing like Jim Carrey, Doc's a total babe. And to those who will comment this correcting me and saying he WAS a babe, he still totally is. I'd tap that.

  • Just like Gen Y morons to compare him to Jim Carrey, listen to the music dipshit

  • i used to listen to this in high school. brings back memories.

  • good fuck song and a good video to

  • Yeah these guys and acdc saved me from the disco mainstream crap happening in the 70 and 80's in australia. As did austentaychus.

  • @MikeWhiskyTango What a load of garbage! Everytime I went to a disco in the 70's and early 80's they were playing AC/DC, The Angels, The Radiators, the Sunnyboys, Midnight Oil, Aussie Crawl, SkyHooks, Sherbet, The Rads, Rosie Tats, Dave Dobbin, Divynls. Forever 15, Dee Minor, V Spy VSpy, Cold Chisel etc etc Brand new music for the blue light disco. Boney M and Hot chocolate for the red light, northern beaches disco! Only having fun!!!

  • I remember going to see the Angels and the Pier hotel in Frankston using my brothers fake ID.. the bouncers were about to send me on my way when some bogan threw a empty VB stubbie at them, while they were distracted I bolted in... still ranks up there as one of the best live shows I've ever seen.

  • playing with Chuck Berry obviously had an effect on this song

  • Hey Angels fans, we are FASTRACK a young hard working Aussie rock band trying to get our brand of rock n roll heard. If you have a spare 5 minutes click on our page and watch our new single "Steal the Show"

    We just want to be heard and think we have something to offer when it comes to Rock N Roll, so let us know what you think. .\m/

  • bomba naprostá a časovaná,bezva punkovej rokec..úžasnej mazec, miluji tuhle věc,moooooc..

  • I have a cd by a band named Angel City. I think it was the official name for The Angels in Europe. Great song and album (Face to Face)!

  • @1967Hendri Absolutely . There was originally a US band called The Angels who sang Doo Whop music I think , Best knownb for My VBoyfriends Back so - while these guys were The Angels here and NZ - they had to find something else globally. Angel City they became. Amazing band.

  • If you listen to the lyrics it's almost a late 70's version of facebook ;)

  • @JimThatsRocks he looks nothing like Jim Carrey... stick it!

  • @nzoz1978

    I actually think both Carrey and Doc are hot, I wouldn't get too upset about this. :)

    (OK, Doc is looking a bit the worse for wear, but it's not his fault!)

  • @nzoz1978 i agree,he does not look like jim carey.

  • @JimThatsRocks

    Doc neeson would kick Jims ugly head in.

  • @JimThatsRocks Mate.....Doc Neeson was HOTTT. Jim Carey never will be.

  • @JimThatsRocks bitch you play this song and tell me its not FUCKING ROCK!!!!!

  • No one has a voice like Doc Neeson's. No one.

  • Fantastic! Simple and powerful. Takes me right back!!

  • i just discovered this band bad thing is iv'e had the vinyl face to face for 15 or more years unopened lol. my wifes friend gave me a bunch of vinyl back then put it all in the closet and forgot about it. i love this album cant stop playing it and im 49 lol

  • There was never a better night than getting pissed at an Angels concert. One of the all time great Pub bands.

  • Saw these guys live at the historic "Cloudland" in Brisbane and the building nearly bounced off the hill. Oh happy days! The angels were my sanity music during early uni years and part of my saving from disco hell. Long may they live.

  • For fucks sake, why is it that one person says one small comment about the band or their style then dickheads put up paragraph after paragraph of why that isnt so......guess what fuckwits who do that......no one thinks youre any fucking smarter or knowledgable by shooting your mouth off......how about we just call it as it is.....these lads are some of the best entertainers and showmen of AUSTRALIAN rock!!!!..........good tunes are good tunes, thats all there fucking is to it.....rock on!!!!!!!

  • I remember seeing the Angels and Cold Chisel on the same night, Sundowner hotel Punchbowl, Bloody awesome.

  • Bloody awesome.

  • the angels, rose tattoo and AC/DC are the best aussie rockers

  • @crackerHero

    Agree but let's not forget Hunters & Collectors, The Church, Mentals, Hoodos, and Paul Kelly

  • @philwear They're good too - but The Angels were in another league.

  • This is just good aussie pub rock who gives a fuck what the rest of you cunts reckon fuck off and go listen to Miley if ya dont like i

  • These guys and The Mark Of Cain are the finest contemporary musical exports out of Adelaide ever.That's why I'm applying for a work transfer over there soon,so sick of Perth and the shitty rich kid attitudes here,yea I lived in Melbourne for 3 of my 40 miserable years and had some of the best times of my life, but I believe Adelaide is up and coming in the cultural and art stakes and I don't really want to live the big city lifestyle again at my age.

  • It's missing the ending

  • This is the best Angels song in my opinion.

  • Ah. This song was on mine and my Dad's driving tape.

    Along with Suzi Q, Queen, Midnight Oil. Geez, I feel old and I'm not even 20 yet xD

  • Fuck me i feel old! But this is worth watching than anything new, no matter how pretty they are, or metal they are,I have a theory that when you have so much on display,there's not much back in the storeroom!

  • omg, I was 11, & it was the best music ever,,,  Go Countdown ! !!

  • Brill

  • Sooooooo love this track.... Rockin'... memories.... hahahah

    I soooo agree with 'saulty67'

    I played the Face to Face album over & over again.Absolutely love it.Still have several other albums on CD & play Angels stuff in the car.Gotta love it all.Specially the older stuff, like Be With You,After The Rain,Marseilles,Love Takes Care etc, coz it's just oh so familiar & brilliantly put together.I'm 49 but I love it all still & yet normally I like peace & quiet, believe it or not! Gimme more I say! :-)

    Thanx so much 4 the clips. I really appreci8 it!

    AnnieDelico1

  • @AnnieDelico1 I'm the same age as you and feel exactly the same way! Saw them at the Manly Vale in 1981.

  • @saulty67 Totally agree..nzoz1978..knows exactly good music from crap.

    Angels my fav aussie band. Grew up listening to this band.Seen them so many times in melbourne. Doc Neeson the GREATEST frontman of all times.

  • @saulty67 Is bad to look like Carrey?--also both Doc and Jim are Capricorns

  • love this song the guitar is just freakin awsome the first time i herd it, it was just out of controll me n ma mates just cranked it

  • I have seen these guys play a few times - always awesome.

    The greatest thing about the Angels is they loved the pub scene. They had the following to play in big concerts but chose to keep it small and personal. Everyone born in my era has seen them play somewhere - they are truly Aussie Legends.

  • @fargone74 Absolutely !!

  • Ty nzoz....remember and still doing this tune in my band....sometimes I gotta come back and see why I am still doing it...TY again...ANGELS ROCKED!

  • in my opinion the solo just doen't fit with the song

  • Thank god for the Angels for making good music at the hight of the disco era..

  • Awesome

  • awsom band love them top music wish thay made a come back tour

  • where have you been mate... they reformed in 2008 and now playing their old pub circuit... saw them a week ago in Brisbane - awesome...

  • @davidg5969 where didi you see then???

  • Dark room ...great sound...school girl..minds....and disco ball between sets...kogarah Moorefiel girls High 1980's..... best nights in the st george region...fuck st girls ...the greenies and kogarah high slags!!!

  • Doc \Neeson tried to cop off with my girlfriend at a gig in Bunbury in 1985 once. I threw an empty can of beer at his head, it bounced off making a hollow thunking sound. Remember that Doc???? DO YA?????? Fuckin cunt, in hindsight, you're welcome to the slag ;-)

  • funniest comment on the internet, go Frank

  • @FrankCleocuz You were lucky, if Doc Neeson would have tried to take me off of my boyfriend I would have done it in a minute. He was hoooootttt. Still the best rock singer ever, even in his 60s.

  • dO YOU THINK THEY WERE MORE INFLUENCED BY PUNK OR AC/DC ANOTHER GREAT AUSSIE IMPORT♥

  • I think punk showed them that keeping things simple is a better alternative. I do not think these 30+ year old musicians would have taken the punk ethic very seriously - especially considering they were already established rockers who's peers and associates were people like Rick Springfield and Bon Scott (same generation).

    Like punk, AC/DC may have introduced them to another option - but I doubt that the Angels were AC/DC's students... that would be sort of laughable.

  • whose*

  • And on another interesting note, one of the Brewster brothers (guitarists of the Angels) played in a band called The Zoot along side Rick Springfield and Beeb Birtles (later of Little River Band).... and who was it that christened the band 'The Zoot'? No other than Angels singer Doc Neeson...

    It's all connected, but hardly connected to punk...

  • you're quite right XD AC/DC used to get called punk all time by the media and they hated it! Maybe there's slight punk element in the rawness but it's certainly just good old Aussie rock!

  • @nzoz1978 its a bit connected to punk. sounds alot like the pistols. well at least the vocals.

  • @nzoz1978 I remember reading in RAM circa 1978 a comment that The Angels 'use Old Wave methods to make New Wave things happen'.

  • The living end stole the main riff to this...

  • yeah, great gay anthem this! If you did not know, this was the very first gay songs out there!

  • @Newromantic65 That was not gay you fuckin retard

  • great stuff, even at 1.30am

    where did 30yrs F%$#n go

  • It's about all the shit you go through to be with the one you love, "Take a long line to be with you".

  • Comment removed

  • FUCK YES!!

  • are they referring to snorting a long line of coke/speed/ketamine or is it analogous to "take the long way home" by Supertramp?

    What I'm trying to ask, were The Angels and Cold Chisel and similar racking chemicals, or was it all about the booze culture back then?

  • You've lost the plot!!

  • Zoom zoom zoom...crash

  • Ah, memories...

  • Perfect drivin music : ) there goes my licence again lol

  • I worked as a roadie for a band called Mystify and helped carry all the gear for the angels and cold chisel so I was lucky.

  • The trick is to take the gear

  • speed skating song...

  • We used to request this song for speed skating (ice) not roller but yay anywhoo.

  • this is it folks - over the top - DA Na Na.....

  • @girlygirl4870 For years I thought he said, "As his head pokes over the top." I thought it was just some weird thing he felt like saying. Sounded cool to me. Well, I was only 13 at the time! lol

  • @girlygirl4870 Yep! One of my two favourite speed skating songs at Balcatta Rollerdrome along with Split Enz' "I See Red" =) Good times, good times...

  • These guys were the gateway of my life of metal.

  • there not metal

  • but they may still have been a gateway of his life to metal - like a rite of passage.

    Means nothing what the initial genre he listened to was.

  • there, should be they're and they never tried to be metal!!! Rock on!!

  • why the hell did i get 4 poor comments agains my ""they're not metal""... they are not metal and never were ausrock, punkrock. they're like ac/dc in the early days just 100% rock n roll

  • woops thats supose to say they ARE ausrock/punkrock lol my bad

  • Bullshit.. doc neeson got hit in the head by a full beer can an played it down by falling down., but it wouldve smarted some

  • it was a bottle i think, thats why he dropped to ground and was knocked out cold

  • Back in the early 80's I was in band that opened for them. One night only but well worth it. Great to see they are still at it. Underrated and underappreciated!!

  • immer wieder gut. Ich liebe die Angels

  • take a loooong line.

  • a mate of mine jump up on stage started dancing with doc like a madman doc ended up hitting him with a large frozen fish he ran back to us yelling did you see that doc hit me with a frozen fish he was ecstatic i was cracking up

  • Hahahaha! Frozen fish!!!

  • My and my mates went to see The Allnighters in the 1980's. During " Montego Bay " one of the band members motioned to a few of us to come up on stage and ska dance. Normally there would be zero chance of me getting up there when sober or close to it.

    However, after a skinful i was braver than normal. Me and my mate " tried " to dance and i was pathetic as usual. Looking out into the audience, is a memory both myself and your brother will never forget. I wish i could have been in a band!!!

  • yeah baybeh...doc's still got it..seeing 'em in 3 weeks

  • this is so hard to play on drum and sing at the same time ur hand is fucked on the hihat its non stop

  • Caution: may contain drug references.

    ahhh music as it should be.

  • be great to get the lyrics with it.

  • nm listened to it so many times now i know em.

  • this is it folks. The angels at their peak. Face to face is one of the greatest Aussie albums of all time.

  • @ManFromMelbourne Yes, yes , yes I couldnt agree more with you. Face to Face is a true classic CD not a bad song on it.

  • Comment removed

  • hells yea, seen theese kids in Seattle in '80? What a blast it was the best music to come from the '80's. Thanx fo the post.

  • this makes proud to be Australian!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • awesome, seen them with ac/dc and swanee in 1980 myer music bowl. the angels were so good that when they finished we all thought they may have upstaged ac/dc. then ac/dc came on wow. the angels came close that day to bettering the biggest band ever to come out of OZ. seen them heaps over the years but age gets you in the end. i like to remember them as they were. one of the best in late 70's to 1980.

  • my mum went to go see the angels years ago before I was born and after the show when she was waiting for a taxi doc neeson walked over and asked if she wanted to go to the after show party with him and the band

  • saw the angels front for barnesy in 86 he shouldve stayed home they killed

  • It was the Cheap Trick Flame/Angels Beyond Salvation tour. For once the foreign band was supporting the Aussies on tour! Saw them at Festival Hall.

  • Simple Minds supported Icehouse during one of their tours... it's happened before.

  • Great to see these guys back with a full stage show & 1 half hour Theatre Tour. Saw them last night at The Forum Melbourne (best concert venue in Australia) -Excellent set! If you get a chance don't miss the Night Attack tour best $50 you will ever spend. Hightligts City Out of Control, Devils Gate & Face the Day & of course Take a Long Line...Brilliant show!

  • Stood up my girlfriend in 79 for the senior prom. Went and saw these guys and the rubber city rebels in Hollywood Ca. I'll never forget it. Probably would'nt of remembered the prom anyway!

  • awesome sweetness..well done

  • Wow! WHAT a double bill! I am jealous! :)
