"C'mere" comes from Antics, Interpol's second album, released in 2004, and it had been road-tested for a long while before that: the band played it again and again at shows under the name "Strangers in the Night", tinkering with the melody and words from one version to the next. Paul Banks, Carlos Dengler, Samuel Fogarino and Daniel Kessler share the writing credit, and Peter Katis recorded and mixed it with Greg Giorgio assisting.
It's Interpol at their most upbeat and least forbidding: a brisk, jangling guitar figure, a bass line that bobs along, and a vocal that sounds, for once, almost warm. Put out as the album's third single in 2005, it reached number 19 on the UK Singles Chart, with a video directed by Associates in Science.
