"Come to Me (I Am Woman)" was written by Eddie Howell and David Dundas[1] and selected by Frida and Steve Lillywhite before the recording sessions for the album had commenced in Studio de la Grand Armée, Paris as a ballad.
[2] "Come to Me (I Am Woman)" was chosen as the follow-up single to "Shine" in late October 1984 in Sweden, Germany, the Netherlands and South Africa, with "Slowly" as the B-side, a song written by ABBA members, Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson.
[5] Despite the promotional efforts and the German newspapers recommending the song as a hit,[6] by the time of the release of this single, there was a decrease in Frida's popularity and due to a lack of effective planning and collaboration by Polar with other record companies,[2] the single did not chart in the countries released.
"[12] "She may not be the next Annie Lennox, or Dusty Springfield but even professional critics will be hard-pressed to laugh off the song as the indulgence of a comedy actress".
[12] Additional feedback also includes "I hope it gets to the no.1 spot she simply deserves for spreading sparkle in an otherwise grey-tinted world".
