Background and composition

"All You Wanted" was written by Branch and produced by John Shanks. The song is written in the key of A-flat major with a tempo of 96 beats per minute. Lyrically, it talks about a heartbreak. Branch said of the song, "I feel like everybody wants to find someone who you feel understood by and will be there to catch you when you fall, and that's what 'All You Wanted' is about."

Critical reception

"All You Wanted" received mostly positive reviews from music critics. In 2009, Sputnikmusic said that the song was the most recognizable while reviewing Branch's The Spirit Room album. Jeff C of Popdirt called the track amazing while reviewing The Spirit Room in 2002. In December 2005, Pam Avoledo embraced the song, she called it "a teen fairytale worth believing in."

Hot Sauce Reviews called "All You Wanted" a favorite and that its one of the tracks that were "listenable, tuneful, and they are great for singalongs too". In 2003, IGN Music stated that "The lyrics, while not the deepest, are not simple or cheesy by any means." They added that "The song features some nice guitar work and again, an insanely catchy chorus." British online newspaper The Independent referred to the track as an "anthemic head rush".

Chart performance

"All You Wanted" entered the US Billboard Hot 100 on the week ending February 23, 2002, and stayed on the charts for 28 weeks, peaking at number six on May 25. The song became Branch's first top-10 hit, as well as her second-highest-peaking single, after "The Game of Love" and "Everywhere".

Music video

The music video was directed by Liz Friedlander.Шаблон:Citation needed It begins with Branch entering a club where her boyfriend is. During the chorus, everything around her freezes, and she takes the opportunity to sing at him, "If you want to, I can save you, I can take you away from here..." assuming he cannot hear her. They then go on a bus together, she sits down, assuming he will sit next to her, but he runs into friends and ignores her. She again sings at him during the chorus. After they exit the bus, it begins to rain and her surroundings are again frozen, and she sings at him, but she then notices that her boyfriend's watch is still ticking. When she realizes this, her boyfriend looks at her, the rain is still stopped. She realizes he was able to hear everything she said before the rain begins to pour again, and she runs away.

In 2002, the video was nominated on MTV Video Music Awards in two categories: Best Female Video and Best Pop Video.
