All or Nothing is the debut album by dance pop duo Milli Vanilli, released only in Europe on the Hansa label in November 1988. In 1989, it was repackaged and retitled Girl You Know It's True for release in the United States on the Arista label, with several of the original album tracks replaced and/or remixed. After 1990, due to lip-synching allegations, a disclaimer sticker was added on the cover to explicitly name the singers who provided vocals on the album.

Oddly, even though All or Nothing was replaced in America with Girl You Know It's True, both All or Nothing and a "best-of" compilation version of 2 X 2 are the only Milli Vanilli albums available on the American iTunes Store.

All or Nothing was included in Q magazine's 2006 list of the 50 worst albums ever made.[1]
