Marty Balin wrote "Comin' Back to Me" alone, words and music, and it drifts through Surrealistic Pillow, Jefferson Airplane's second album, released in 1967, as a hushed, candlelit stretch of psychedelic folk.
By Balin's telling, it came to him all at once, in a single sitting, with some top-shelf marijuana from blues singer Paul Butterfield helping it along, and he headed straight for the studio to cut it with whichever musicians happened to be on hand. It has since found its way onto a string of film soundtracks, among them The Indian Runner, Girl, Interrupted, A Serious Man and The Age of Adaline.
