Flying High - Album Release June 29th 2009
Out From Under - Single Release June 29th 2009
Following the worldwide success of 2007s Running Free, June sees the release of Ali Campbells much anticipated third solo album Flying High, his first to be recorded since splitting from UB40. Ali has one of the UKs most distinctive and recognisable voices and as lead singer with the world-renowned group UB40, he has sold over 70 million records worldwide, toured across the globe, notched up four number No. 1 world-wide singles, over forty Top 40 UK singles, released 24 studio albums and received an Ivor Novello Award for International Achievement.
Recorded in Londons legendary Sarm Studios Flying High is an exquisitely arranged and produced infectious reggae-pop record, made up of a mixture of original material and interesting covers, thoroughly exploring all genres of reggae music, with a release date that makes it a potential soundtrack to the summer.
An Ali Campbell record wouldnt be an Ali Campbell record without exciting collaborations, superbly written original material and some well chosen, transformed covers and Flying High wont disappoint. Ali restructures and shapes old pop classics with his inventive, artistic vision that only he could convincingly execute and the record includes appearances from an exciting cast of international artists including Craig David, Sway, Jamaicas Lady Saw and Shaggy, Germanys Gentleman and South Africas Danny K & The Soweto Gospel Choir.
Speaking about recording the song Everways with Craig David, Ali recalled: It was a joy working with Craig, he is totally professional and has done a great job on the track. He is one of the UK's best R n B talents and a lovely guy. Similarly Craig enjoyed the experience saying It was great working with Ali, the man is a legend and a consummate professional. Everways captures everything that weve all come to love about his writing. I look forward to working with him again in the future.
A song written by Ali and Gentleman for the album is Its A Crime on which British rapper Sway collaborates: Sway is one of Britain's finest. His rap on the track is so good, I was blown away with his lyric and phrasing he is a big talent praised Ali. Coming from a family of UB40 fans Sway was thrilled to be working with Ali: "It was a great honour working with Ali, I'm a big fan of UB40 and so are my parents, my mum couldn't believe it. The fact that someone of that stature would even consider or acknowledge talent from a younger generation to be worthy of appearing on his album is amazing."
Soaring melodies and reggae rhythms glide and bounce along throughout the album with themes that include conspiracy theories, politics and love. The moving rendition of Britney Spears Out From Under highlights Campbells world class vocal ability - the first single to be taken from the new album, this beautiful ballad evokes strong emotions and lyrically may help to shed some light on his departure from UB40. Shes A Lady, a cover of Tom Jones Seventies smash, sees a pair-up with dancehall superstar Shaggy, whose raspy Jamaican rhymes entwine with Campbells huge soulful vocals so fluently and with such kick that youre left wondering why the two havent collaborated before.
True reggae lovers will be excited to learn that there is a cover of John Holts 1970 lost dub classic My Heart Is Gone. The haunting original track Nothing Ever Changes (Pierrot) sees the pairing of German reggae star Gentleman with Ali and leaves its mark on the listener with its thought provoking lyric, whilst Visions, another Campbell penned track, sees Danny K and the Soweto Gospel choir join Ali on what is an anthemic and uplifting look at South Africas future.
From his days in UB40 to his time pursuing his successful solo career, Ali has always stayed true to his love of reggae and its ongoing capacity for innovation, experimentation and pure enjoyment. Flying High is testament to his continuing desire to create and deliver innovative reggae and dub to the world in the shape of an album that, young or old, reggae enthusiast, or not, you definitely wont want to miss.

Great cover of the Elvis Presley !!!!!!
We, who still love listening to this song, are legends !!!
That's true
Had tears in my eyes when they performed this song live in Windhoek, Namibia. Dreams do come true.
Wish I was there. Everything deemed way cooler and genuine in the 90s.
Womp womp

This song total exemplifies why the 90's was one of the best times to be alive! 👍
I agree ☝️ they were the best 🥳💯💯💯
depends on when you grew up for me in rank of best first it was 80s, 50's, 70's 90s & tie for 5th between 60's & oughts
Don't stopbd
If you hear about a time machine,let me know so I can go back to the beautiful, stunning and magnificent 90s.
Bravo
UB40 sweetest Melody music stay alive year to year always refreshing
❤❤❤ 1993 I love ❤️ this song 🎵 1980s and 1990s were two most influential Generations Years 🤲🏾💿🎵🎙️💃🏽🕺bands💿 album 💿 Groups and Beat individual Singers of our time🎙️🎼❤️🇩🇲🪩🎈🇬🇧
I will always love this song and version. Its sentimental. I naturally love UB40 FOREVER. My highschool sweetheart dedicated this to me in college when our daughter was born 30 years ago. He is with Angel's now and this song comforts me so much. Rest In Peace Dwayne G. Your daughter and I miss you so much.🕊💝🕊💝🕊💝🕊

The BEST EVER!!
A timeless classic. Love this raggae rendition... The hook is so fantastic and it defines one of many fun elements of mid ninetees
Felt like strolling down memory lane. Love this song still after all these years.
❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 greetings from Ethiopia! Remembering time of teenage ! Respect
Damn...why music cant be like this now
Its so beautiful that...it hurts T_T
This is a masterpiece
Had this version played at my 50th anniversary party in 2015! Also had Elvis….loved this!
I was 14 when this came out. 44 now and still love it.
A truly criminally underrated band! This and Red Red Wine being the big hits but when you hear that voice it is truly unique and timeliness and maybe most importantly it never gets old! Unfortunately for me this song brings tears to my eyes because my sister loved this song and it played at her funeral along with Beautiful girls from INXS and everytime I hear either one of the songs I can't help but to cry. I can never overlook the passion and love in this song and how it clearly translates into such a beautiful harmony.
lol!! This song was never underrated, this was the shit when it came out, and still one of the best hits till now and on!!
They are definitely rated
Bless you
Here in November 2023. Still One Of My All Time Favs From UB40 🎧🎵
2024 and still rocking! 😊
I played this version at my best friends wedding 2003 19yrs still together
Love this song

Enamorada de mi marido! 8 años de aventuras, dolores y risas, está canción es para él.

October 1993 from Seattle to Copenhagen I heard this going to Germany via Copenhagen on a SAS Scandinavian BOEING 767-383 this song brings back Nostalgia of that trip overseas granted I was born in the early 80s but 1993 also is long gone
Great song 🙂 R I P Astro 🙏
