Come Inside
Come Inside is a Finnish glam rock, brit pop and indie rock band founded in 1996 at the Alppila Senior High in Helsinki, Finland. Though Sippola writes the band's lyrics in fluent English, the band remains mostly unknown outside of Finland, where they had several top-20 records.
The band comprised Mikko Sippola (vocals), Junnu Alajuuma (guitar), Sampsa Kaukua (guitar), Jotti Taival (bass) and Oskari "Ose" Vilmunen (drums), who first met each other in the aforementioned high school and subsequently decided to form a band. According to their own words, their first-hand contact to music was playing e.g. "Rage Against the Machine, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Hendrix and Stevie Wonder" together.
Later, during the recording sessions for their second album Fearless, guitarist Kaukua left the band and was replaced by Matti Salovaara (guitar). Around the same time, the band's sound was further augmented by Junnu's little brother Ville (keyboards).
First Steps or Chewin' Tobacco Fish Deedle
While the band was recording their first demo tape, they had not yet come to decide upon a name for the band. When asked, they would answer with "Chewin' Tobacco Fish Deedle". Their first demo was recorded in a space provided by their school. As would be obvious from their list of influences, the style and quality of their early material swung wildly: "Behind That Door, on the other hand, sounds like bad European reggae," proclaimed one Finnish reviewer.
Come Inside (song)
"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. The single also peaked at #7 on the US Dance Music/Club Play Singles. 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.
The song was featured in a 1991 "Beverly Hills 90210" episode.
Background
Aside from the album title Queer, the duo lyrically reclaimed positive sexuality through the "Come Inside" song. Bailey described the song's meaning; "It's about a breakthrough between two people, the act of penetration. But the song is inspired by William Blake's poem "The Doors of Deception," which, as Blake wrote are hard to open wide. It's amazing how people are not willing to open their minds, but are more than ready to open their legs." Bailey also noted that the song's music video included images of doors slamming on "rude people".

Come Inside
by: Zoe Muth & The Lost High RollersShe found a baby on the back porch
Along with some bad bad news
But with a face like that
How could anyone refuse?
She said don't you cry now, don't you make a fuss
And in good time I'll get used to you
Chorus:
You can come inside for a little while
Just to help me find the ends I've been trying to tie
It'll be easier if I don't try to make you stay
Cause I don't believe in happy endings anymore anyway
Young man you've been tearing your body down
Working all day and staying out late on the town
I know I'm not the only one taking up your time
But the way you love me darling suits me just fine
If passing through is all that you'll ever do
Won't you just stop for a minute so I can take a look at
you?
Bridge: I've been walkin' these streets alone
Looking through windows to see if anyone is home
And into the eyes of the people passing by
To see if I can find a light still on
