"Do You Miss Me?" was written and produced by Glenn Gutierrez with all vocals by Jocelyn Enriquez. In April 1996 the single was debuted on San Francisco radio station Wild 107.7 (now Wild 94.9). Gutierrez wrote this song about the end of his relationship by the same woman who inspired "I Didn't Know Love Would Break My Heart" on Enriquez's debut album "Lovely".
The single was first commercially released on cassette single in May followed by the CD Maxi single in June. "Do You Miss Me" was the lead single for her sophomore album Jocelyn, which was ready for release for the summer of 1996. As momentum picked up for the single a joint venture between Tommy Boy Records, imprint Timber! Records and Classified Records was formed. The album release was halted to rerecord and remix songs as well as new original recordings. Months later "Do You Miss Me (The Remixes)" was released through the joint venture. They repurposed the original Jocelyn album cover picture for The Remixes. The Jocelyn album would include an exclusive remix inspired by Information Society's "Running." Years later the extended version of this remix would be made available on her MySpace page.
The song became an international hit which lead to her to tour countries such as Brazil, the Philippines, and perform on the hit talk show Ricki Lake and Much Music. "Do You Miss Me?" peaked at #49 on the Billboard Hot 100, #17 on the Rhythmic Top 40, #14 on the Top 40 Mainstream chart, #8 on the Hot Dance Singles Sales chart, and #12 on the Canadian Singles Chart. More than a year after "Do You Miss Me"'s release the music video was released. An alternate edit of the video was available on Yahoo! which included a black and white checkered look and a different hair style.
In 2001, a fast-paced rock cover version of the song was released by Lucky Boys Confusion. In 2021 Filipino pop singer Garth Garcia released a version and was a staple song at his concerts.
