Baby Come Back (Player song)

"Baby Come Back" is a song by the British-American rock band Player. It was released in late 1977 as the lead single from their 1977 self-titled debut album, and was the breakthrough single for the band, gaining them mainstream success, hitting #1 on the US Billboard Hot 100 for the three consecutive weeks of January 14, 21 and 28, 1978 and #10 on the R&B charts in 1978. Their biggest hit single, the song was written and performed by Peter Beckett and J. C. Crowley, the founders of Player.

As reported on the American Top 40 broadcast of November 5, 1977, "Baby Come Back" was written after two of the band members had broken up with their girlfriends.

In 2018 Australian band Ocean Alley included it as part of the Like a Version segment on the Australian radio station Triple J. The cover reached No. 16 on Triple J's Hottest 100 of 2018[citation needed] and was certified gold by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA).

The song has also been recorded by Lisa Stansfield. The song was also featured on Keith Urban's 2026 album, Flow State.
