"Come Anytime" was a single by iconic[1][2] Australian rock group Hoodoo Gurus which reached #27 on the ARIA Singles Charts[3] and #1 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks.[4] It was released on RCA Records in June, 1989; and was written by Dave Faulkner.[5] B side "Cajun Country" was also written by Faulkner.[5]

" "Come Anytime"... best described as a romantic song about an unromantic subject but you can reverse the adjectives and the statement would be equally correct.
"Cajun Country" wears its Creedence influence proudly on its sleeve which is probably the reason we (foolishly) left if off the album and consigned it to the obscurity of a flip-side..." - Dave Faulkner.[6]

The 7" single was released as a limited edition picture disc, shaped like a skull with crossed guitars.

"Come Anytime" is used as the theme song for the Australian TV show Thank God You're Here (2006) and the 2007 U.S. version.
