"I Said Never Again (but Here We Are)" is the third and final single taken from Rachel Stevens's second album Come and Get It, released on October 3 in 2005. The song peaked at number twelve in the UK charts. The single received some of the best reviews of Stevens' career with it being hailed by HMV.co.uk for its "astonishingly flawless vocal performance" and as Stevens' "most commercially accessible and quirky single since "Some Girls". It sold a somewhat disappointing 20,000 copies in the UK, half of which was in its first week.

A "US Edit" of the song leaked in 2006, supposedly to be on the American version of the Come and Get It album, though this version of the album was never released. This is the final single released in Steven's short solo career.
