Christmas All Over the World is the fourth studio album released by American R&B group New Edition released in December 1985 by MCA. It serves as the group's first Christmas album and 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 until he returned for their seventh album Home Again (1996).
The album was a moderate chart success, only peaking at number forty-five on the Billboard R&B Albums chart, and received mediocre reviews from most music critics.
