Corporate America is the fifth studio album by American hard rock band Boston, released in 2002. Most editions feature a live version of "Livin' for You". The original version of "Livin' for You" is from Boston's previous full-length album Walk On (1994).
The album also introduced both Anton Cosmo and Kimberley Dahme as both band members and songwriters. This is the last Boston album released during original lead vocalist Brad Delp's lifetime, before his death in 2007. It also marked the final appearance of Fran Cosmo.
The album sold 32,000 copies in its first week of release and charted at 42 on the Billboard 200. The album was later pulled from all digital and retail markets by founding member Tom Scholz due to a record company dispute with Artemis.
The final page of the CD booklet is dedicated to preserving the environment, providing web links to such organizations as PETA.
An instrumental song called "Crystal Love", which often was declared on the internet to be a bonus track for Corporate America, is actually a song of the South-Korean guitarist Lee Hyun Suk and appeared on his album 3 which was released in 1995.[1]
The bonus track "Livin' for You (Live)" is on all releases of the album.
