The Different Story (World of Lust and Crime) is the third English album by German singer Peter Schilling.

The English counterpart to the German album of the same name, The Different Story (World of Lust and Crime) is the last English album by Peter Schilling to date. All the songs but the title track are from previous albums. Schilling later explained that he'd grown tired and needed a break by the time of the album's production and release, providing a possible reason why there was only one new track recorded.

The title track was a collaborative effort between Peter Schilling and Enigma's Michael Cretu, and is the only song written and released in English only. "The Different Story (World of Lust and Crime)" was a Top 10 pop hit in Sweden. Released in a dance mix, the song was also a club hit, reaching No. 16 on the Billboard Dance chart. It was Schilling's last U.S. Hot 100 Pop hit to date, peaking at No. 61.
