blink-182 shared a member of staff with The Cure, as the American rockers were huge fans of Robert Smith, they managed to get him on this track.
Of blink-182’s concerns that Smith might not want to collaborate because of their earlier, jocular music, Smith said:
Nobody knows what kind of songs you...
[Verse 1: Robert Smith]
With all of this I know now, everything inside of my head
It all just goes to show how nothing I know changes me at all
[Pre-Chorus: Robert Smith]
Again, I wait for this to change instead to tear the world in two
Another night with her, but I'm always wanting you
[Chorus: Tom DeLonge, Robert Smith]
Use me, Holly, come on and use me
We know where we go
Use me, Holly, come on and use me
We go where we know
[Verse 2: Robert Smith]
With all of this I feel now, everything inside of my heart
It all just seems to be how nothing I feel pulls at me at all
[Pre-Chorus: Robert Smith]
Again, I wait for this to pull apart, to break my time in two
Another night with her, but I'm always wanting you
[Chorus: Tom DeLonge, Robert Smith]
Use me, Holly, come on and use me
We know where we go
Use me, Holly, come on and use me
We go where we know
[Post-Chorus: Robert Smith]
She's all I need, she's all I dream, she's all I'm always wanting
She's all I need, she's all I dream, she's all I'm always wanting you
[Bridge: Robert Smith]
I'm always wanting you
I'm always wanting you
[Chorus: Tom DeLonge, Robert Smith]
Use me, Holly, come on and use me
We know where we go
Use me, Holly, come on and use me
We go where we know
[Post-Chorus: Robert Smith]
She's all I need, she's all I dream, she's all I'm always wanting
She's all I need, she's all I dream, she's all I'm always wanting you
[Outro: Robert Smith]
Oh, again I wait for this to fill the hole, to shake the sky in two
Another night with her
I'm always wanting you
Another night with her, but I'm always wanting you
All of This was written by Robert Smith & Travis Barker & Tom DeLonge & Mark Hoppus.
All of This was produced by Jerry Finn.
blink-182 released All of This on Tue Nov 18 2003.
Mark shared in the album’s liner notes:
We are all huge fans of The Cure. Having Robert Smith collaborate on a track is a total dream come true for us. We recorded this song in a rather unconventional manner. Travis recorded the kick and snare together, then went back and overdubbed the high hat, t...
Smith told Spin in 2004:
I got a message saying, “[Blink-182] wants to talk to you about doing something on their new album.” I went to my teen nephews and nieces and asked, “What do you think it would be like if I sang with Blink?” And they told me, “That would be so fucking cool.” So I borrowed s...
