"'''Everybody's Problem'''" is the second single by English [[alternative rock]] band [[Pulp (band)|Pulp]], released in 1983.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
"Everybody's Problem"/"There Was" was a follow-up single to the band's debut album and demonstrated a style shift advised by Red Rhino's Tony Perrin who had convinced Cocker that he "could write commercial songs like [[Wham!]]".<ref>{{cite web|author=Anthony |title=Everybody's Problem |url=http://www.mlp.cz/space/Opatrilp/Pulp/Everybodys_Problem.disc.html |accessdate=31 January 2007 |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070311035153/http://www.mlp.cz/space/Opatrilp/Pulp/Everybodys_Problem.disc.html |archivedate=11 March 2007 |url-status=dead }}</ref> However, the single failed to achieve any success at that time with [[Jarvis Cocker]] becoming unhappy with his chosen musical direction, which later led to various lineup changes and the establishment of a new, more experimental, artier and noisier direction for Pulp.<br />
<br />
==Release==<br />
Neither "Everybody's Problem" or "There Was" featured on the original release of the first album ''[[It (Pulp album)|It]]''. However, both were later included as bonus tracks on the deleted CD reissue of the album in 1994 by [[Cherry Red Records|Cherry Red]]. Since then, Cherry Red re-released "Everybody's Problem" with and without "There Was..." on various compilation albums, most recently on their 2013 [[box set]] ''[[Scared to Get Happy: A Story of Indie-Pop 1980-1989]]''. The original single is now a collector's item.<br />
