Nicole e Diddy in the video for "Come to Me"

The video for the song premiered on BET's Access Granted on August 8, 2006. "Come to Me" debuted on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 at number ninety-three and peaked at number nine on its eighth week on the chart. It has also peaked at number thirteen on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. The song did chart on BET's 106 & Park, where it reached number four, and reached number one on MTV's Sucker Free. As of September 7, 2006, "Come to Me" was in the top ten in the United States iTunes Music Store.

"Come to Me" also features an uncredited sample of Keak da Sneak's song "Hyphy." The phone portrayed prominently at the beginning of the video is a Nokia 8801 (presumably as opposed to the Nokia 8800, which was not readily available at the time of the video's shooting).

The reggae remix of "Come to Me" was leaked onto radio airwaves by a Syracuse, New York radio station in late September 2006. The remix features Elephant Man. Another remix of this song features Notorious B.I.G. An official remix has been released featuring Nicole Scherzinger, Yung Joc, T.I. & Young Dro.

"Come to Me" debuted on the U.S Billboard Hot 100 at number ninety-three at its moderate digital downloads from its release. In its second week, "Come to Me" gained high single sales and digital downloads but moderate airplay pushing its position at number twenty-five, with one of the highest jumps in the Hot 100. Having high single sales across the U.S, "Come to Me" peaked at number nine on the U.S Billboard Hot 100 Singles Sales. "Come to Me" has also gained high digital downloads, making it a peak at number fifteen on the U.S Billboard Hot Digital Songs.

Diddy performed "Come to Me" with Cassie on MTV Europe Music Awards 2006, as well as on the NBC pregame show for the opening game of the 2006 NFL season between the Miami Dolphins and the Pittsburgh Steelers at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He has also performed the song several times with Danity Kane. Plus, he performed it three times with Nicole Scherzinger.

There is no relationship between Diddy's "Come to Me" and Roy Head's C&W hit by that same title.

To date, the song remains the most successful in the US and worldwide of Press Play.
