The song, like many from the Face Value album, is about Collins' anger and frustration about his first wife leaving him. The original demo was entitled, "I Miss You, Babe" and the lyrics were made much sadder. He re-wrote the lyric, gave the song a different tempo, and re-titled it "I Missed Again" in an effort to make it funny as opposed to sad, as Collins stated on Classic Albums "Making of Face Value". The demo is available on the single "If Leaving Me Is Easy".

My God! Can you believe TV ever was like this. Remember this show at all? It ran for a few years in the early 1970's.  Karen Valentine was pretty, but I found the rest of this show just very odd. I think it was supposed to be "funny" yet the mood is anything but funny in a lot of it
