They had a succession of hits worldwide, including eight top-five hits on the US Billboard Hot 100, "Lost in Love" (1979), "All Out of Love", "Every Woman in the World" (both 1980), "The One That You Love" (number one), "Here I Am" (both 1981), "Sweet Dreams", "Even the Nights Are Better" (both 1982) and "Making Love Out of Nothing at All" (1983). In Australia, they had four top ten placements with "Love and Other Bruises" (1976), "All Out of Love", "Every Woman in the World" and "The One That You Love". Their highest charting studio album, The One That You Love(1981) reached number ten in both Australia and the US. The line-up has included numerous band members and they relocated to Los Angeles in the late 1970s. The Australian Recording Industry Association(ARIA) inducted Air Supply into their Hall of Fame on 1 December 2013, at the annual ARIA Awards.

         The Earth Is... is the eleventh studio album by British-Australian soft rock duo Air Supply, released in 1991 and their first for Giant Records. It was their comeback album after taking a break in 1987, with Russell Hitchcock releasing his eponymous debut solo album in 1988.

       The Earth Is... did not peak on the American charts, but it produced a worldwide tour in which the band focused on Asian countries and Latin America, The interpretation of "Without You" reached Nº 48 on the US Adult Contemporary chart. "Dame Amor" is the first song by the band recorded in Spanish. Unlike their previous works, the album prominently features the keyboards and piano on many tracks except "Dame Amor".

No I can't forget this evening

Or your face as you were leaving

But I guess that's just the way the story goes

You always smile but in you eyes your sorrow shows

Yes it shows

 

No I can't forget tomorrow

When I think of all my sorrows

When I had you there but then I let you go

And now it's only fair that I should let you know

What you should know

 

I can't live, if living is without you

I can't give, I can't give any more

Can't live, if living is without you

Can't give, I can't give any more

 

No I can't forget this evening

Or your face as you were leaving

But I guess that's just the way the story goes

You always smile but in you eyes your sorrow shows

Yes it shows

 

I can't live, if living is without you

I can't give, I can't give any more

Can't live, if living is without you

Can't give, I can't give any more

 

I can't live, if living is without you

I can't give, I can't give any more

I can't live, if living is without you

I can't give, I can't give any more

 

I can't live, if living is without you

I can't give, I can't give any more.
