"Everytime You Go Away" is a song written by Daryl Hall and covered by Paul Young.
The original appeared on Hall & Oates's 1980 album, Voices, although it was not released as a single. Young's version hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 on July 27 in 1985. It remains his only number-one hit and one of the two Top 10 hits he had on the Billboard Top 100. The other one was "Oh Girl", which peaked at no. 8 in 1990.
Young's version features a haunting combination of echoed piano, Pino Palladino's distinctive fretless bass and an electric sitar, the latter a long-neglected instrument by the mid-1980s.
At the end of the movie Planes, Trains and Automobiles the song is performed by Blue Room.
In 2006 Clay Aiken covered this song on his CD A Thousand Different Ways.
"Everytime You Go Away" is a single by Brian McKnight released in 2005.
