Christmas All Over the World is a Christmas album released by R&B quintet New Edition on the MCA label in 1985. It's notable that 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 where the group reluctantly forced him out due to managerial concern of the group's image being tattered by Brown's outbursts. For a couple of years, the group lineup was essentially a quartet of Ricky Bell, Ronnie DeVoe, Michael Bivins and lead singer Ralph Tresvant.
