"Come Inside" is a song by British pop group Thompson Twins, released in 1991 as the lead single from their eighth studio album Queer. It was written and produced by Alannah Currie and Tom Bailey. The single peaked at No. 56 in the UK and spent four weeks on the chart.[1] The single also peaked at No. 7 on the US Billboard Dance Music/Club Play Singles Chart.[2] The single had a music video filmed to promote it.

Background

Speaking of the song's meaning, Bailey told The Advocate in 1991, "It's about a breakthrough between two people, the act of penetration. The song is inspired by William Blake's poem 'The Doors of Deception,' which, as Blake wrote, are hard to open wide. It's amazing how people are not willing to open their minds, but are more than ready to open their legs."[3]

Release

"Come Inside" was initially released in the UK under the moniker 'Feedback Max feat. T.T.' to disguise the identity of the band to club DJs. In a 1991 interview with Kiss FM, Bailey explained the thinking behind hiding the Thompson Twins name on the single: Шаблон:Blockquote

Critical reception

Upon its release, Billboard described "Come Inside" as a "moody and rhythmic pop confection". They added, "Its reliable knack for crafting clever lyrics and insinuating hooks makes this a good best for attention at top 40, modern rock, and club levels. Tom Bailey's voice has never sounded better."[4] The radio industry trade publication The Network Forty considered the song "catchy" and noted that Thompson Twins "are back and stronger than ever".[5]

Simon Price of Melody Maker felt it showed the Thompson Twins had "gone baggy" which "means a C&C Music Factory remix and lines like 'close your eyes, kiss the sky'". He concluded, "As embarrassing as seeing your parents dancing to House music, as convincing as a Linda McCartney techno-bleep project. Hilarious."[6] Simon Williams of NME wrote, "If Electronic had made 'Come Inside', relatively sane people would indeed be ejaculating forth within the confines of their cotton briefs. Alas, it's only those sad old Thompson Twins getting all dancey."[7]

In a review of Queer, Larry Flick of Billboard stated: "The first single "Come Inside" sets the mood nicely with its slow and sleazy rhythms and sing-along chorus".[8] Ira Robbins of the Trouser Press Record Guide said: "There is a dark, edgy undercurrent to Bailey's singing - like eau de Foetus, diluted to a safe concentration - and in the arrangements of songs like Come Inside, Groove On and The Saint, but the album's general tone is upbeat, atmospheric and clubby."[8]
