Come Live with Me (Heaven 17 song)

"Come Live With Me" is a song by the British synthpop band Heaven 17, released on 17 June 1983 as the fourth single from their second album The Luxury Gap.

[3] On its release, Helen Fitzgerald of Melody Maker felt "Come Live with Me" failed to better the band's previous hit "Temptation", but added that the "moody and sad" song "is still sublime".

[4] Max Bell of Number One described it as "an extraordinary choice of single" and added, "After the sublime 'Temptation' this begging letter from an older man to a younger girl seems far too reflective and lyrically top-heavy to strike a common chord.

"[5] John Shearlaw of Record Mirror felt the single, despite their recent success with "Temptation", "proves that Heaven 17 aren't really in the big league at all".

[6] Robin Eggar of the Daily Mirror felt the song was not as strong as "Temptation" but predicted "it's good enough to make the top ten".
