"Always" was the second single from All In The Name Of Love, the seventh album from R&B group, Atlantic Starr. A syrupy adult contemporary ballad, "Always" reflected the Lewis Brothers' desire to have the type of crossover success that Whitney Houston and Lionel Richie had been enjoying in the '80s; they got their wish when "Always" soared to number one on the Billboard Hot 100 charts in the Spring of 1987.
In 2000, the pop act Boyz N Girlz United included a cover version of the song on their self titled debut, and only, album.
