==Music and reception==
At the time of its release as a single, the Stud Brothers wrote in ''Melody Maker'': "It's a slow, heavily orchestral & sensuously tense piece with Siouxsie first tapt, then cracked and finally spiralling off into the ether".〔The Stud Brothers. ''Melody Maker''. 11 July 1992.〕
The song featured strings which build to a dramatic conclusion. The song featured elements from Danny Elfman's ''Batman Returns'' score. Lyrically, the song makes indirect references to the film's characters Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle. "Face to Face" was heard in the film during a ballroom scene in which the characters dance together, not realising that, as their alter-egos (Batman and Catwoman), they are enemies. The lyrics reflected the characters' conflict ''("...Cheek to cheek / the bitter sweet / commit your crime / in your deadly time / It's too divine / I want to bend / I want this bliss / but something says I must resist...")''. At one point, Siouxsie can be heard purring like a cat, a reference to Catwoman.
"Face to Face" peaked at number 21 in the UK singles chart.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Siouxsie & the Banshees (charts ) )〕 It also performed well on American alternative rock radio, where the single peaked at No. 7 on the U.S. Modern Rock Tracks chart. Remixes of "Face to Face" were produced by 808 State.
