The Earth Is ... is the 11th studio album by Australian soft rock band Air Supply released in 1991 and their first for Giant Records. The album was their comeback after having a break from producing music. The album didn't peak at American charts, but it produced a worldwide tour in which the band focused on Asian countries, which gave them enormous popularity in Asia.[citation needed] The interpretation of "Without You" reached #48 on US adult contemporary charts.[2] "Dame Amor" is the first song by the band recorded in Spanish.
