"Come Over" is a song written by Sam Hunt, Shane McAnally, and Josh Osborne [1] and recorded by American country music singer Kenny Chesney. It was released in May 2012 as the second single from Chesney's 2012 album Welcome to the Fishbowl .
The song is set in the key of D♭ major with a main chord pattern of B♭m7–G♭sus2–D♭/F-D♭sus-D♭–A♭. [2]
Co-writer Josh Osborne said that when writing the song, he and the co-writers were composing melodies when co-writer Sam Hunt suggested to make it a "kind of desperate thing, like the guy is pleading with this girl to come over." Upon reaching the chorus, they decided to repeat the phrase "come over" five times to "[get] into the emotion of the situation." [3]
Billy Dukes of Taste of Country gave the song three and a half stars out of five, writing that "the songwriters show power in efficiency, yet the singer never really conveys the physical need for this woman that the repetition begs for." [4] Matt Bjorke of Roughstock gave the song four stars out of five, saying that it "shows off a completely different side for Kenny Chesney and it manages to feel immediate and current in ways that 'Feel Like a Rock Star' didn't." [5]
The music video was directed by Shaun Silva and premiered in June 2012. [6] The music video alternates between scenes featuring Chesney and scenes featuring Courtney McCann. [7] It was filmed in Fort Lauderdale, Florida with some ocean scenes near Miami Beach, Florida. Chesney has described the music video as a "classy booty call." It is entirely in black-and-white, and features a cameo from his dog, Poncho, standing on a paddleboard alongside Chesney. [8]
"Come Over" debuted at number 24 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Songs chart for the week of June 2, 2012. [9] After spending eleven weeks on the Hot Country Songs chart, "Come Over" became Chesney's twenty-second number one single for the week of August 11, 2012.
