About Everybody in Love

"Everybody in Love" is a song by English boyband JLS from their self-titled debut album (2009). The song was released as a digital download on 1 November 2009, followed by a physical release the following day. The song became the band's second number one single in the UK on 8 November 2009, with a total of 600,000 copies being sold so far in the UK, earning the single a Platinum certification. The song was released to U.S. Mainstream Top 40 radio on 23 February 2010, but failed to chart on Billboard Hot 100. According to co-writer Wayne Hector, "Everybody in Love" was intended to be the lead single from JLS until A&R Nick Raphael changed his mind at the last minute and opted instead for "Beat Again".

To date, "Everybody in Love" has garnered mixed to positive reviews, and it was also becoming the only JLS song to become popular and to have charted in the US. Digital Spy said that: "Groundbreaking it ain't, but Everybody in Love is catchy, feelgood and thoroughly likable. It's also as mushy as the peas at your local chip shop, with the boys issuing this imperative at the start of the song and again towards the end: "Everybody in love, go on put your hands up." If we could listen, type and wave our phone above our head all at the same time, believe us we would be." Popjustice also said "Everybody In Love is so in need of its own 'HRNK' - that international sound effect of the quite good pop tune - that it actually opens with the sound of a rave horn. You cannot say fairer than that.
