"Everybody in the Place" is the second official single released by the Britishelectronic dance bandthe Prodigy from their debut album,Experience (1992). It was released on 23 December 1991 throughXL Recordings in the United Kingdom.
The single features the "Fairground Remix" version of the song. The version on the album is the"155 & Rising Version", which is significantly longer and faster in beats per minute than the original mix featured on theWhat Evil Lurks EP.
The single peaked at number two on theUK Singles Chart, beaten to number one by the re-release ofQueen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" following the death ofFreddie Mercury.[2]
The original CD single was released with five tracks, which went against British chart regulations. The track "Rip Up the Sound System" was removed on the re-issue to comply with the chart regulations,[citation needed] but is still available on the 12" vinyl. The cover features a photograph of the now dismantledCorkscrew roller coaster atAlton Towers.[3]
The song was released six months later on 18 June 1992 as a double A-side with first single "Charly" throughElektra Records in theUnited States. The single is featured on the band's greatest hits compilationTheir Law: The Singles 1990–2005.
The accompanying music video for "Everybody in the Place" was shot in December 1991[4] during a trip to New York, during which they also played at theLimelight Club. It features the band dancing in a fast-paced succession of short shots.[5] The video ends with the band appearing to be pursued by the police but escaping.
