"Come On Over" is a ballad written by Barry and Robin Gibb and recorded by the Bee Gees for their album Main Course, with lead vocals by Robin, joined by Barry in the chorus.. A live version was recorded in Los Angeles during their Children of the World Tour and appeared on their first live album Here at Last...Bee Gees...Live. The song was more reminiscent of their older style as compared to the new R&B sound of "Jive Talkin'" and "Nights on Broadway". It would become a No.1 adult contemporary hit for Olivia Newton-John in 1976.
