“All We Ever Wanted Was Everything”, from the 1982 @bauhausthebandofficial album “The Sky’s Gone Out”, was recently featured in @spinmag ‘s Deep Cut Fridays.
The band’s 1979 debut single “Bela Lugosi’s Dead” remains their signature song, but over the years, the more subdued “All We Ever Wanted Was Everything” has emerged as one of their most popular tracks.
The third Bauhaus album, 1982’s “The Sky’s Gone Out”, was the band’s highest charting release, reaching No. 4 in the U.K. …..with time, “All We Ever Wanted Was Everything” has become by far the album’s most famous track. The track’s lyrics are as cryptic as any Bauhaus song (“The sound of the drum has called / Flash of youth shoot out of darkness”), but the acoustic arrangement is lush and moving.
It’s been featured in a 2018 episode of The Walking Dead and the 2011 film I Melt with You, and covered by MGMT, John Frusciante, and Xiu Xiu. The first time Bauhaus reunited in 1998, Billy Corgan of Smashing Pumpkins joined the band onstage in Chicago to perform “All We Ever Wanted Was Everything.”
