It was released as a single from Gibb's 1984 album Now Voyager in Germany and Spain. It was also released in Brazil by Mercury Records. It was released as a single in the Philippines with "Temptation" as the B-side.[1] It was also included on Newton-John's compilation Love Songs (2004, Japan exclusive). It is one of the two songs on the album along with "She Says" that was not featured on the 1984 film Now Voyager starring Gibb himself and Michael Hordern. BackgroundIt was written by Gibb, along with Maurice Gibb and George Bitzer in 1983. The solo version of "Face to Face" was recorded by Gibb as a demo in late 1983 with his brother Maurice (guitar, bass, synthesizer) and Bitzer (piano, synthesizer) along with four other songs.[2] "Face to Face" is almost a Newton-John's record with support from Gibb. Gibb and Newton-John also provides harmony vocals. Near the end of the song, Gibb is heard singing his trademark falsetto from 1975.[3] Newton-John also contributed background vocals on "Fine Line", a song also included on Gibb's Now Voyager.[4] Critical receptionAllmusic critic William Ruhlmann called "Face to Face" as "a steamy ballad duet with Newton-John that wouldn't have been out of place on Guilty and might have a good single".[5]References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.discogs.com/Barry-Gibb-Duet-With-Olivia-Newton-John-Face-To-Face/release/4916397 |title=Barry Gibb Duet With Olivia Newton-John – Face To Face |publisher=Discogs |accessdate=22 December 2014}} {{Barry Gibb}}{{Olivia Newton-John singles}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.columbia.edu/~brennan/beegees/83.html |title=Gibb Songs: 1983 |last=Brennan |first=Joseph |accessdate=22 December 2014}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JLQtxDL1Ypo |title=Barry Gibb - Face To Face (with Olivia Newton-John) |publisher=You Tube |accessdate=22 December 2014}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.columbia.edu/~brennan/beegees/84.html |title=Gibb Songs: 1984 |last=Brennan |first=Joseph |accessdate=22 December 2014}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.allmusic.com/album/now-voyager-mw0000190143 |title=Now Voyager - Barry Gibb |last=Ruhlmann |first=William |work=Allmusic |publisher=Rovi Corporation |accessdate=22 December 2014}} 11 : 1984 singles|Barry Gibb songs|Songs written by Barry Gibb|Songs written by Maurice Gibb|Olivia Newton-John songs|Song recordings produced by Barry Gibb|Vocal duets|Polydor Records singles|MCA Records singles|1980s ballads|1984 songs |
