"All the Small Things" adalah lagu dari band rock Amerika Blink-182. Itu adalah single kedua dan lagu kedelapan yang dirilis dari album ketiga band, Enema of the State (1999). Lagu ini disusun terutama oleh gitaris dan vokalis Tom DeLonge sebagai syair untuk pacarnya saat itu. Direkam di Los Angeles dengan produser Jerry Finn, lagu tersebut dibuat dengan tujuan untuk dikirimkan ke radio, karena ketiganya merasa mereka membutuhkan single yang "sangat menarik dan mendasar."
Single ini dirilis ke radio pada tanggal 28 September 1999, dan langsung masuk chart di seluruh dunia, menjadi hit nomor satu di chart Modern Rock Tracks Billboard, memuncak di nomor dua di UK Singles Chart, dan menyeberang ke radio pop dan memuncak di nomor enam di Billboard Hot 100. Lagu ini tetap menjadi single band yang paling sukses hingga saat ini, menjadi satu-satunya lagu mereka yang masuk 40 besar. Lagu ini masuk dalam 20 besar di sepuluh negara lain, dan menjadi lebih penting karena video musik yang menyertainya, yang memparodikan video boy band. seperti Backstreet Boys, 98 Degrees, dan 'N Sync serta video penyanyi pop Britney Spears dan Christina Aguilera. Video ini populer secara bergilir di Total Request Live MTV, menimbulkan kritik dari mereka yang merasa dasar parodi mereka lemah.
"All the Small Things" dipilih oleh Rolling Stone sebagai salah satu dari "100 Lagu Pop Terbesar", dan tercantum dalam buku tahun 2010 1001 Songs You Must Hear Before You Die.
Latar belakang
Pada akhir tahun 1990-an, Blink-182 sedang menuju menjadi salah satu band rock terbesar di pergantian abad. Ketiganya—terdiri dari vokalis/gitaris Tom DeLonge, vokalis/bassis Mark Hoppus, dan drummer baru Travis Barker—telah bermain di klub punk California Selatan dan di sirkuit festival Warped Tour. Kegemaran mereka pada humor yang tidak biasa dan punk rock yang bertempo cepat telah menarik minat Universal Music Group yang mengontrak band tersebut ke label MCA. Dengan anggaran yang lebih tinggi dan bantuan dari insinyur veteran Jerry Finn —yang mencampurkan Dookie (1994) milik Green Day —band ini mulai membuat album berikutnya, yang kemudian diberi judul Enema of the State.
"All the Small Things" dapat ditelusuri kembali ke saat ketiganya pertama kali mulai mengembangkan lagu untuk album di ruang latihan mereka di DML Studios di kampung halaman mereka di San Diego, California. DeLonge baru saja membeli rumah pertamanya di sana, dan membeli bantalan busa senilai dua hingga tiga ribu dolar untuk menyekat kamarnya. Pada titik ini, sebagian besar lagu Enema of the state telah ditulis, tetapi DeLonge merasa album tersebut membutuhkan "hanya satu lagu yang benar-benar menarik dan mendasar." "Saya ingat berpikir, 'Label pasti menginginkan sebuah lagu untuk radio – jadi ini dia,'" kata DeLonge. "Sudah jelas sejak awal bahwa ini akan sesuai dengan format itu." DeLonge ingin menulis lagu termasuk "na na na's" sebagai syair untuk salah satu band favoritnya, Ramones. Demo awal mencantumkannya sebagai "Lagu bergaya Ramones", dan judul asli dari lagu tersebut adalah "Babycakes-Buttermuffin".
DeLonge menulis lagu tentang pacarnya Jennifer Jenkins, yang kemudian dinikahinya dari tahun 2001 hingga 2019. Lirik "Dia meninggalkanku mawar di dekat tangga / Kejutan, beri tahu aku dia peduli" didasarkan pada sebuah waktu Jenkins melakukan hal itu setelah DeLonge pulang terlambat dari rekaman.
Itu adalah salah satu lagu terakhir yang kami rekam, karena [sangat] sederhana sehingga tidak terlalu menyenangkan untuk dimainkan. Tapi begitu kami menggabungkan semuanya dan memainkannya sebagai sebuah band, kami semua saling memandang dan berkata, 'Lagu ini luar biasa!' [...] Setelah kami merekam lagu ini dan mendengarnya, itu membuat kami merinding. Kami hanya saling memandang dan tahu kami memiliki keajaiban kecil ini. Kami tahu hal itu akan menjadi hal yang sangat besar, saya tidak tahu bagaimana caranya, tapi kami langsung merasakannya.
Komposisi
"All the Small Things" dikreditkan ke Tom DeLonge dan Mark Hoppus. Meskipun Barker membantu menulis lagu di Enema of the State, hanya Hoppus dan DeLonge yang menerima kredit penulisan lagu, karena Barker secara teknis adalah musisi bayaran, bukan anggota band resmi. Lagu ini berdurasi dua menit empat puluh delapan detik. Lagu ini disusun dengan kunci C mayor dan diatur dalam tanda birama waktu umum dengan tempo penggerak 150 ketukan per menit. Rentang vokal DeLonge berkisar dari G 4 hingga F 5. Riff gitar untuk lagu ini berputar di sekitar akord C mayor, F dan G (I, IV, dan V dalam C), sebuah progresi akord yang familiar. Tekstur pada trek disebabkan oleh beberapa overdub yang memainkan berbagai inversi dan ekstensi akord utama. Gitar bass tetap di C sementara gitar berpindah ke F, menciptakan akord inversi ke-2. Lagu ini menggunakan frasa liris pendek di setiap baitnya, terkadang hanya empat hingga lima suku kata.
Penerimaan
"All the Small Things" memperkenalkan Blink-182 kepada pendengar baru secara massal. "Ini adalah lagu yang membawa band dari teater dan klub ke arena", kata Andy Greene di Rolling Stone. Ia telah dikreditkan dengan mempopulerkan pop-punk di arus utama. Ulasan kritis awal adalah positif. Q menyebut lagu itu sebagai "salah satu lagu power-pop yang dianggap benar oleh orang Amerika," sambil bercanda, "[lagu itu] memiliki lebih banyak daya tarik daripada Fishing Channel." Gavin Edwards dari Rolling Stone menyebutnya sebagai "lagu pop-punk yang tak tertahankan," sementara lagu itu diberi label "daerah aliran sungai pop punk" oleh Jonah Weiner dari Blender. Steve Appleford di Los Angeles Times memuji lagu tersebut sebagai "angsty, remaja, sangat lucu dan sarat dengan hook yang menarik," sementara Mikael Wood, yang menulis untuk publikasi yang sama, mengamati bahwa lagu tersebut "menyampaikan" perpaduan yang kuat antara humor dan melankolis, harapan dan kepasrahan."
Lagu tersebut sekarang secara luas dipandang sebagai lagu klasik lintas generasi. Maeve McDermott, untuk USA Today, menyebutnya sebagai hit band yang menentukan. Steven Hyden, menulis untuk situs budaya yang sekarang sudah tidak ada lagi, Grantland, mengatakan "Saya melihat Blink sebagai band single radio terbaik pada masanya; lagu-lagu seperti "All the Small Things" bertahan dalam ujian waktu sebagai ace lagu pop." Amanda Petrusich, dalam sebuah artikel yang menganalisis umur panjang band untuk The New Yorker, menulis: "Momen-momen terbaik [Blink] diungkapkan dalam tulisan cepat remaja yang dirugikan, seperti bait dari "All the Small Things" ini: 'Late night / Come rumah / Pekerjaan menyebalkan / Aku tahu.'" Tom Breihan di Stereogum memberi peringkat balada yang "sangat tulus" pada 10/10, sementara Jeremy Gordon di Pitchfork memandang lagu itu sebagai "sangat sensitif [...] kenikmatan melodi yang bersoda menangkap kesederhanaan ciri khas cinta muda."
Chart performance
The single debuted at number 89 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for the week of December 4, 1999 and eventually peaked at number six, the highest Blink-182 has received on that chart. The song also reached number one on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks. The song also achieved massive success in other countries, most notably in the United Kingdom, where it entered and peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart in March 2000, beaten to the top of the chart by "Bag It Up" by Geri Halliwell. "All the Small Things" has since sold 1,200,000 copies in the UK and been certified double Platinum. In Australia, "All the Small Things" peaked at number eight on the ARIA Singles Chart. The single was certified Platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association. It was one of the top-selling singles in America in 2000, with Nielsen SoundScan estimating its sales at 500,000 copies. The song has accumulated over 500,000 plays on US pop radio as of December 2011.
Music video
The music video for "All the Small Things" was directed by Marcos Siega, and mocks boy bands and contemporary pop videos. It features the trio doing parodies of other popular boy-bands such as Backstreet Boys (most famously the "I Want It That Way" video), 98 Degrees, and NSYNC. The video also features parodies of Britney Spears' "Sometimes", and Christina Aguilera's "Genie in a Bottle" video. It became the most successful video from Enema of the State, and its constant airplay on MTV cemented the band's image as video stars. The music video was shot on location from August 5–6 at Van Nuys Airport and Santa Monica State Beach. It premiered September 20, 1999, on MTV's Making the Video. The video was a major success on MTV's Total Request Live (TRL), where it was retired after 65 days on the countdown. Hoppus was originally uncertain if the idea was funny enough, and conceded he was then not as familiar with the teen-pop videos it aims to lampoon.
The video was named "Best Video" at the 2000 Kerrang! Awards, as well as nabbing "Best Group Video" at the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards. "I was a little surprised it went over so well," recalled Marcos Siega, director of the clip, commenting that he felt it would offend viewers of TRL and boy band fans. "I think we had the opposite effect. In some ways, I think that video put Blink at that sort of pop level with those other bands. We were making fun of them, but it kind of became [what it was making fun of]." "Blink now had the backing of a major record company […] just like the synthesized pop acts they were spoofing," said British journalist Tim Footman. "In what way were they less 'pop' than Sugar Ray and 98 Degrees?" Matt Diehl, author of the book My So-Called Punk, called the basis for satire thin: "To seasoned ears, Blink-182 sounded and looked just as manufactured as the pop idols they were poking fun at." In a similar vein, in 2011, The New York Times wrote, "Fame doesn't discriminate based on origin, though: soon the group was as famous as those it was parodying." Kelefa Sanneh, writing for The New York Times, described the video as prescient, suggesting "in the next few years top-selling punk-inspired acts like Avril Lavigne and Good Charlotte helped turn Blink-182's parody into reality as punk rock became the new teen pop."
During rehearsals for the video, bassist and vocalist Mark Hoppus met his future wife, Skye Everly. According to a 2004 interview, Everly – who was then an MTV talent executive – initially said no to dating Hoppus. "Tom [DeLonge] always used to embarrass me. Any girl he'd talk to, he'd say, 'Hey, you wanna go on a date with Mark?' He asked Skye [Everly], my wife, who looked at me and said 'No.' That's how it all started." Hoppus married Everly on December 2, 2000.
In the performance segment of the music video, model Jessica Jackson holds up a sign that reads "TRAVIS I'M PREGNANT". This part of the clip was referenced by Barker and his wife Kourtney Kardashian in June 2023; the couple revealed they were expecting a baby at a blink-182 show in Los Angeles by having Kardashian hold up the same sign.
Legacy
The song has been a staple of the band's live performances since its release. Its ubiquity has made it complex for the threesome: Barker noted that over time, playing the song became tiresome. "With 'All the Small Things,' my band at one point were like, 'We never want to play that song, and we never want to hear it ever again.' And then it comes around, and you're like, 'This song is actually awesome.' And you're proud of what you wrote." Hoppus concurred: "It's a really simple song, we've played it billion times, everyone's sick of it. But now I just remember how lucky we are to be onstage playing them." DeLonge's voice has deepened over the years, leading him to mock the original recording in later years – in a 2022 interview, he compared his vocals on the song to Hanson and quipped, "I sound like I'm fucking four years old."
The song proved influential on the pop punk genre, with a host of young musicians emulating its sound. Former Simple Plan bassist David Desrosiers noted that the song "blended punk attitude with pop songwriting so much better than other bands." Judah & the Lion drummer Spencer Cross, meanwhile, has noted the song was "one of the first songs I remember getting hooked on, playing it over and over again."
The song has become a popular karaoke choice, particularly for millennials who came of age listening to the song. In a 2022 piece, GQ writer Chris Gayomali humorously suggests that "if you were born in the 1980s or early '90s, even if you were never a fan or a willful listener of a Blink song, the lyrics to their biggest hits—"All the Small Things", "I Miss You"—are somehow already encoded into your subconscious, sitting there, just a few blood-alcohol-content percentages away from being karaoke'd without a teleprompter." Billboard columnist Josh Glicksman ranked it among the best karaoke singalongs, observing: "Its communal nature affords it flexibility [...] Bring out every air instrument in the arsenal."

The virtual band Alvin and the Chipmunks covered the song for their 2008 album Undeniable, and the song was used for the characters' live-action film and accompanying video game. The song's association with the characters has prompted Hoppus to joke at concerts, "Not to brag, [but] you might recognize this next song from the Alvin and the Chipmunks movie."
Like many famous rock songs, "All the Small Things" has come to be used in chants at sporting events. In 2019, the NHL team the Colorado Avalanche began playing the song during the third period of home games with a comfortable lead and after overtime wins. The tradition has gained more prominence as the 2021–22 team won the Stanley Cup final. The Athletic's book about the 2021-22 team was titled Carry Me Home, a lyric from the song's refrain. Hoppus acknowledged the Avalanche's tradition on Twitter, calling it "amazing", and appeared at the 2022 home opener to lead the crowd in singing the song, and remarking, "Thank you so much for taking our band along or the ride, it means the absolute world to us."
Stand-up comedian Adam Devine referenced the song in a routine that aired on Comedy Central's Goddamn Comedy Jam, where he revealed that he had lost his virginity to the song in high school.
