Paul McCartney's "Come On to Me" came out on 20 June 2018 via Capitol, sharing a double A-side with "I Don't Know", both pulled from his 17th studio album, Egypt Station. By his own account it's a pick-up song and pure fantasy: he pictured a younger version of himself at a party, catching someone's eye and wondering whether to make the approach or wait for them to make it.
Greg Kurstin produced it, with McCartney co-producing. McCartney sings lead and plays piano, acoustic guitar and harmonica, Abe Laboriel Jr. drums, Brian Ray plays bass and electric sitar, Rusty Anderson and Kurstin handle electric guitars, Paul Wickens adds Hammond organ, and a horn section of trumpet, trombone and two saxophones joins in. It went to number 10 on Billboard's Adult Contemporary chart, his first top-10 showing there since 1993.
