Christmas All Over the World is a holiday EP released by American R&B group New Edition.[2] It was released in December 1985 by MCA Records. It serves as the group's only Christmas album. Also, this was the final album to feature vocals from original member Bobby Brown, who shortly departed for a solo career after the release of this album. The group reluctantly forced him out due to managerial concern of the group's image being tattered by Brown's multiple outbursts. Brown will later return for their sixth album, Home Again (1996).
The album was a moderate chart success, only peaking at number forty-five on the Billboard R&B Albums chart, and received mediocre reviews from most music critics.
