I actually first heard this song…unknowingly…on James Cordon’s Carpool Karaoke. When I went back and visited my family in Indiana my sister was lovingly showing me her new favorite show called Carpool Karaoke. I forgot all about it and somehow someway I heard from someone that I had to watch the Paul McCartney one. It was most likely Alyssa that told me but who knows. Anyways, we sat down and watched it and it was amazing.
I already loved the Beatles and respected Paul McCartney, but the episode really kind of gave an inner look at just who he was as a person. I honestly think he’s a genius. I heard a story about how on the latest Foo Fighter’s album they brought Paul McCartney in to help write and drum on the song “Sunday Rain”. Dave Grohl was amazed at how easy the song together and Paul just simply said “It’s always that easy”.
His matter of factness really stuck with me. I’d like to live my life like that.
Anyways, “Come on to Me” was in the episode and I finally listened to the full album and recognized it immediately. There’s many songs I like on the album, but this has got to be my favorite. Just a cool, simple, straight forward song. Great writing and super catchy. Check it out, and if you dig it, I highly recommend the whole album. You can tell he had a lot of fun making it.
