}} ''Where We Belong'' is the third studio album by Irish boyband Boyzone. The album was released on 25 May 1998 by Polydor Records. Five singles were released from the album, including a cover version of "I Love the Way You Love Me". The album became a top 10 album in eleven countries. It was the group's first to be released in the United States, where it charted at number 167 on the ''Billboard'' 200. ''Where We Belong'' is also the third and final studio album Boyzone released before the death of Stephen Gately, 11 years later. ==Background and release== Much of the material for the album was written or co-written by the band members themselves. In 1998, Ronan Keating was awarded the prestigious Ivor Novello Award for "Picture of You", which was featured as the main theme song from the film ''Bean: The Ultimate Disaster Movie''. ''Where We Belong'' album was released on 25 May 1998 in the United Kingdom by Polydor Records. It topped the UK Albums Chart on the week of 6 June 1998. Five singles were released from the album: "Picture of You", "Baby Can I Hold You", "All That I Need", "No Matter What" and "I Love the Way You Love Me", with the addition of the French-language single "Te Garder Pres De Moi", which was released and included on the album exclusively in France. The original British issue of the album did not contain "No Matter What" or "I Love the Way You Love Me" - these were included on a later pressing, issued on 10 November 1998. The following week, the album was released in the United States on 17 November 1998 by Ravenous Records, a label set up by Jim Steinman under Mercury Records. The US edition included three new songs; "I'll Never Not Need You", "Walk On (So They Told Me)", and "All the Time in the World". "All the Time in the World" was released as the album's first single in the US on 5 October 1998. "No Matter What" was featured on the US edition of the soundtrack to the 1999 film ''Notting Hill'', and was released to American radio on 10 May 1999. Although "Picture of You" is included on the album in both the United States and Australia, it was released as a single from ''A Different Beat'' in those regions, as the release of ''A Different Beat'' occurred there after the release of "Picture of You" in the United Kingdom. The American edition of the album includes three new tracks that were not released in Britain until the release of ''By Request'' in 1999. Although "Shooting Star" was released as a double A-side with "Baby Can I Hold You" in most territories, it only appeared as a bonus track on the album in Japan. The album is also the third and final studio album that the group released before the death of Stephen Gately eleven years later. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Where We Belong (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
