"Everybody Everybody" is a song recorded in 1989 by the Italo-house music band Black Box. It was the third single from their debut studio album Dreamland and was released in 1990 in most countries worldwide.
The song was a hit on several charts, particularly on the Hot Dance Club Play in the United States, where it reached #1 for three consecutive weeks from July 21 to August 4, 1990. The song also peaked at #2 on the U.S. R&B Chart, #8 on Billboard Hot 100, #16 on the UK Singles Chart, and achieved a great success in Ireland (#6).
The song features an uncredited Martha Wash on lead vocals. In a 1990 settlement with RCA Records, Wash was guaranteed proper credit in recordings. As was customary in their music videos, live performances and album cover art, Katrin Quinol, a French model, was featured lip-synching the lyrics sung by Wash.
The song also features a sample of singer Oran "Juice" Jones saying "Ow!" from his recording "Shaniqua."
Industrial rock band Braindead Soundmachine included two versions the song of the same single on which they covered the Patsy Cline song "Walkin' After Midnight".
The song was featured in the 1991 film Cool As Ice.
The vocal chorus hook "Everybody Everybody" was used in the D Mob single, "One Day" in 1994.
Eurodance and electronic music DJ and producer Benny Benassi remixed "Everybody Everybody" in 2007.
