All Around the World is een nummer van de Britse rockband Oasis uit 1998. Het is de derde single van hun derde studioalbum Be Here Now.

Zoals bij vele nummers van Oasis (Whatever, Acquiesce, Live Forever) is de boodschap van "All Around the World" dat alles goedkomt. Het nummer bereikte de eerste positie in het Verenigd Koninkrijk, en met een duur van 9 minuten en 38 seconden is het de langste Britse nummer 1-hit ooit. In Nederland moest het nummer het echter met een 8e positie in de Tipparade stellen.

"All Around the World" is a song by the English rock band Oasis. It was written by the band's lead guitarist and principal songwriter Noel Gallagher. Released on 12 January 1998 as the third single from their third studio album, Be Here Now (1997). The song peaked at number one on the UK Singles Chart, becoming the longest song by duration to reach number one, and earned a Gold certification. This was the last Oasis single to be released on the Creation Records label. The song also reached number one in Ireland and peaked at number 15 on the US Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart.

Nearly ten minutes long, the song is embellished with string and horn pieces, and is followed by the two-minute-long instrumental "All Around the World (Reprise)". Upon its release, the reviews were generally positive. As with many Oasis songs (such as "Whatever", "Acquiesce", "Live Forever") it sends the message that "everything's gonna be okay". This was their last UK single to feature rhythm guitarist Paul "Bonehead" Arthurs and bassist Paul McGuigan before they left the band in 1999.
