"Come Along" is a single and title track from Titiyo's album of the same name. In 2001 the song reached the first place in GLF[2] and, according to Billboard, became the most played song on Sveriges Radio.[3] The song received a Grammis award for "Song of the year 2001" and a Rockbjörnen award for "Swedish song of the year 2001".

The song was included in the soundtrack for the 2004 film Iron Jawed Angels and was covered by Vicci Martinez. The official music video was released on YouTube by Diesel Music AB on December 8, 2011.

Reception

Dave Thompson from AllMusic wrote, that the song "sets the scene, a sultry post-blues number infused with just enough of Titiyo's trademark dance sensibility to mask (but never bury) the distinctly PJ Harvey-esque feel of the song itself".[4] Mila Kravchuk from Ukrainian music website @music noted: "We fell in love with this sluggish blues melody, stretching like a molasses, with equal, rhythmic stresses. [...] It's as if this tune was brought from the old gramophone record by Robert Johnson".[5]
