"Everybody's Problem" is the second single by English alternative rock band Pulp, released in 1983.
"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!".[1] 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.
