Worldwide (Everything but the Girl album)

Worldwide is the sixth studio album by Everything but the Girl, released on 1 October 1991.

"Old Friends", "Twin Cities" and "Talk to Me Like the Sea" were released as singles but didn't impact the charts. The album itself debuted at its peak at No. 29 in the UK but quickly dropped the chart. Thus, it became the least successful EBTG release, both critically and commercially.

In 2012, Edsel Records reissued Worldwide as a two-disc set which gathered other EPs released around the time (1992's Covers and 1993's The Only Living Boy in New York and I Didn't Know I Was Looking for Love) plus b-sides, demos and live recordings from 1990-1994.
