"Come Inside" is Thompson Twins' only single in 1991 from the album Queer. It was written by the duo, Alannah Currie and Tom Bailey. The single peaked at #56 in the UK, spending 4 weeks on the chart.[1] The single also peaked at #7 on the US Dance Music/Club Play Singles.[2] The single had a promo video to support it.

The single was supported by various techno inspired singles under the moniker of Feedback Max (in the UK) to disguise the identity of the band to club DJs. The single "Come Inside" reached #7 in the US Dance Chart and #1 in the UK Dance Chart. However, once it was discovered that the Thompson Twins were behind the record, sales dropped and the album Queer never had a UK release.
