"Baby, Come on Over" is a single released by Irish pop singer Samantha Mumba. It was released as the fourth single internationally and the second single in the USA. It was taken from her debut album Gotta Tell You.
"Baby, Come on Over" is a re-worked version of the original which appears on the original release of the album Gotta Tell You. The radio version contains re-worked and additional lyrics, a new instrumental arrangement, as well as a dance break down. The radio version was released on the re-release of Gotta Tell You in the USA and overseas.
The single was first released in the USA in April 2001 to radio, and was later commercially released overseas in September 2001. In the USA the song was titled "Baby, Come Over (This Is Our Night)"; internationally, the song's title was kept the same as the original, "Baby Come on Over". It was rumored the song's title was changed due to confusion with Christina Aguilera's single "Come On Over Baby (All I Want Is You)".
The single contains a sample of Kool & The Gang's hit single "Ladies' Night". However, the song is not listed as a sample in the credits, but the writers are listed.

The music video (directed by Joseph Kahn) features Mumba and several others dancing in different scenes. The first is Samantha singing in a light/sunny background (left image). Another has Samantha and others dancing several giant steps above water. Much of the video also has various others dancing in a multi-coloured room, being viewed in the shape of a telescope. The other final scene features Mumba with a mic and stand in a blue room with white holes splodged all over the walls.
