"Always" is a song by American R&B group Atlantic Starr. The track was the second single from the group's seventh studio album All in the Name of Love (1987). The single was the biggest hit for Atlantic Starr; it peaked at number one on both the US Billboard Hot 100 and Billboard Hot Black Singles charts in June 1987, being the band's only number one song.[3] The song also spent two weeks atop the U.S. adult contemporary chart.[4] In July, it topped the Canadian RPM 100 national singles chart, where it remained for two weeks.[5][6] The British Phonographic Industry (BPI) certified it silver.
