"All I Want" is a song by American alternative rock band Toad the Wet Sprocket, released by Columbia Records in 1992 as the second single from their third album, Fear (1991). "All I Want" reached number 15 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number 10 on the US Cash Box Top 100. For its radio release, a version was parenthetically labeled a remix and featured pronounced vocal mastering, heard mainly during the song's hook. The album version is the unmastered mix.[4]

On the song's content, singer Glen Phillips said, "It's very much about how fleeting any kind of epiphany is. It's all about the moment passing very, very quickly and how there's a desire to hold onto it. That would be a constant, but it comes and it goes, and it goes very quickly."[5]
