About This Track
All Around The World is a song by Lisa Stansfield released in late 1989 for her debut solo album, Affection. It remains her biggest hit to date. Written and produced by Stansfield, Ian Devaney and Andy Morris, the debut solo single by Stansfield became a massive international hit.It spent two weeks at #1 on the UK singles chart in November 1989 and reaching the top in 11 other countries. In January 1990, it peaked at #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 but is the second single by a white female singer to top the Billboard R&B chart after Teena Marie’s “
Ooo La La La” achieved this feat for the first time in 1988.
The track also topped the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart, and reached #7 on the Adult Contemporary chart.The song was later recorded by Stansfield with popular R&B artist Barry White and featured on his compilation album, The Ultimate Collection. A music video was also filmed.
This song was interpolated on the single, “
Been Around the World” from the Puff Daddy album No Way Out and the version of “Girl You Know It’s True” by Keith Duffy and Shane Lynch of Irish boy band Boyzone.The song was also sampled by the late R&B singer Aaliyah in “Where Could He Be” which was released in 2005.
In 2006, the song was covered by Thomas Anders for his swing album, Songs Forever.
