"All Over Again" is a song written and originally recorded by Johnny Cash. He recorded it for his first single on Columbia Records.

The single (Columbia 4-41251, with "What Do I Care" on the opposite side) was released between September and November 1958.

"All Over Again" reached #38 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #4 on the Billboard country chart, while "What Do I Care" made it to #52 and #7, respectively.

Background

For his first Columbia single, Cash wrote and recorded the song "All Over Again," a song of love and devotion with the singer proclaiming, "Every time I look at you I fall in love all over again." It was the perfect transition single, sounding as if it might have been a Sun release, and yet there was something very fresh and new about it. Interestingly, it was never included on an album at the time of its release in 1958, and yet Cash never forgot about it. He also favored the single's B-side, "What Do I Care."
