'Something's Goin' On' is the 76th studio album by British singer Cliff Richard, released by Decca on 5 November 2001 in the UK. The album reached #7 in the UK Albums Chart and was his first top 10 album since 2000.[5] The album was certified "Gold" by the BPI.

This album was Richard's first with Decca and recorded his album in Nashville, Franklin and Miami in the USA. Reviews of the album were positive, with The Sun saying he had "produced [his] best work in yonks". [6] Music Week rated this as "Album of the Week as it contained a well-rounded package. [7]

This album is currently the last of Richard's to consist of entirely original songs. All subsequent albums up to and including Love... The Album contain mostly cover songs or songs from previous albums. This could because the album didn't do as well as expected, Richard quoted on his album:

Whatver happens to this album I will always consider it one of my best. If it fails to impress, it will be no one's fault but my own.[8]

Three singles were released from this album, the first being the song "Somethin' Is Goin' On" which reached #9 in the UK Singles Chart and stayed for 3 weeks. The second single release was a song written by Barry Gibb from the Bee Gees called "I Cannot Give You My Love" which reached #13 in the UK Singles Chart and stayed for 4 weeks. The final single release was "What Car" which reached #12 in the UK Singles Chart and stayed for 3 weeks.
