"All I Ever Wanted" is a song by English singer-songwriter Kirsty MacColl, released in 1991 as the third and final single from her third studio album, Electric Landlady.

In a promotional video on the making of Electric Landlady, MacColl commented, "'All I Ever Wanted' is a song I wrote with Marshall Crenshaw some time ago.

Three live tracks were included across the single's different formats: "There's a Guy Works Down the Chip Shop Swears He's Elvis", "Walk Right Back" and "A New England".

"[11] John Greenwood of the Halifax Evening Courier called it a "wistful slice of pop and added that "as usual, it has a touch of class".

[12] In a review of Electric Landlady, Steve Pick of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch commented how "All I Ever Wanted" "implicitly connects the early Beatles with the bossa nova that had to influence them".

[14] John Kovalic of the Wisconsin State Journal wrote, "The solid, catchy pop of 'All I Ever Wanted' may be the [album]'s strongest selling point".
