All the Small Things is a song by Blink-182.
Guitarist Tom DeLonge wrote this for his girlfriend after she complained that he always writes songs about other girls. He was afraid it wouldn't be good, so he kept telling her it was terrible. It ended up being a hit and she was very pleased with it. (Thanks, Colin - Colbert, WA)
According to DeLonge, the lyrics are true. His girlfriend really did leave him roses by the stairs after a long night in the studio.
The group performed this at both the 1999 and 2000 MTV Video Music Awards. At the 2000 performance, where this won for Best Group Video, a bunch of "little people" joined the band. Many of them danced on stage, and a few swung from wires while pyrotechnics exploded overhead.
Blink-182 bass player Mark Hoppus met Skye Everly, the woman who would become his wife, on the shoot for this video.
This song was used in The Simpsons episode when Bart got a "split" from Homer and moved into the row under Tony Hawk's skate/party room. (Thanks, Britt - Tville, Australia)
