Travelling Without Moving is the third studio album by English funk and acid jazz band Jamiroquai, released on 28 August 1996 in Japan, then on 9 September 1996 in the United Kingdom under Sony Soho Square. Front-man Jay Kay intended for the album to have a more universal style, revolving around `cars, life and love`.[1] Critics have generally praised the album for being more focused and refined than the band`s previous work while others panned its lyrics and found the album too derivative. Kay also faced backlash from the press for his use of sports cars in this period despite his environmental beliefs.

The album was Jamiroquai`s American breakthrough. It marked the band`s first entry in the US Billboard 200 chart at number 24. In the UK, it peaked at number two. Its singles `Virtual Insanity`, `Cosmic Girl` and `Alright` entered the top-ten in the UK singles chart. In the US, `Alright` entered the Billboard Hot 100 at number 78, while `Cosmic Girl` and `High Times` were in the top-ten in the Dance Club Songs charts. The music video for `Virtual Insanity` contributed to the album`s success. Travelling Without Moving sold over 8 million copies worldwide, holding the Guinness World Records as the best-selling funk album in history. The album was reissued in 2013 in remastered form with bonus material.

Background
After experiencing a stressful period while recording The Return of the Space Cowboy, Kay sought to make the next album more focused and universal. He also did not want to remain as a semi-underground act `that stuck to its little niche and sold one and a half million albums every time. I wanted to breakout and be something bigger, more international.`[2] Speaking of the album`s general mood, Kay said: `[With Emergency on Planet Earth], people weren`t cheering in the streets or anything, and [The Return of the Space Cowboy] was quite sad. With [Travelling Without Moving], I decided it was important to show people we could enjoy ourselves. That`s why it`s cars, life and love`.[1] Kay booked the band into the residential studio Great Linford Manor so that they could work at their own pace.[2][
