All The Love In the World (Instrumental)
All The Love In The World (The Definitive NIN - Deep Cuts)
"All the Love in the World" is the first track on Nine Inch Nails' fifth full-length album, With Teeth.
The idea of the narrator being or feeling "a million miles away," as sung in this song as an incomplete verse line (and also printed in the additional, unsung lyrics from the With Teeth lyric poster in a different context), seems to reference or relate to the same idea as sung first in "Hurt." It would also be mentioned again in "1,000,000." Whether the three songs are all specifically related beyond repetition of the phrase is publicly unverified.

All The Love In The World
The song begins with a nearly monotone Trent Reznor singing the verses and repeating, "Why do you get all the love in the world?" Synth drums are used in a slow IDM-esque drumbeat. About three minutes into the song an interpolation occurs. The song transitions into a set of piano chords backed by Grohl's tom-led drums, and eventually a bass guitar beneath layers of Reznor's vocals.
In an interview with Remix Magazine, Atticus Ross explains the approach that was used to record the layered vocals in the outro:
The body of the body of the outro piece on "All the Love in the World" is done in loop record. But he’s not listening to the track he recorded before, in his mind, he knows what he’s aiming for, so he’s just singing different harmonies without hearing the one before. And that goes on for probably an hour with just recording, recording, recording. Then, we go back and go through all the different ideas and kind of arrange them, and he has them up on the board, and through muting, he decides what he does and does not like. And then we go back and retrack if need be. But a great majority of the ideas come from him on the fly. It’s just very unusual that you meet people who generate so many ideas like that.[1]
All The Love In The World (The Definitive NIN - Deep Cuts)
In the song's appearance on The Definitive NIN - Deep Cuts, there is a layer of additional samples - speech taken from The Twilight Zone episode "And When The Sky Was Opened". A track by Reznor and Atticus Ross on the Before The Flood Soundtrack shares this title.
No... no, I'm not sick, I... just got a very funny feeling.
Never felt anything like this before.
[What kind of feeling?]
It's like I didn't belong here. Like if I was to let myself go,
I'd...
[You'd what?]
Like I'd disappear.
All The Love In The World (Instrumental)
Running Time: 5:24
Released exclusively through Apple Music. It also features the same Twilight Zone sample previously included in the Deep Cuts version.
Live
"All The Love In The World" was one of two With Teeth songs not to be played while touring for that album (the other was "Sunspots"). It was performed at several soundchecks and rehearsals with vocals. One of those soundchecks can be heard here.
"All The Love In The World" eventually made its live debut on November 5, 2013 in San Antonio, TX during the Tension 2013 Tour, and was played eight times on that tour. It featured backing vocals by Lisa Fischer and Sharlotte Gibson.
The song has since appeared at one of the Las Vegas warm-up shows in 2018, as well as a dozen times on the Cold And Black And Infinite Tour.
Lyrics
Watching all the insects march along
Seem to know just right where they belong
Smears of face reflecting in the chrome
Hiding in the crowd I'm all alone
No one's heard a single word I've said
They don't sound as good outside my head
Looks as though the past is here to stay
I've become a million miles a-
Why do you get all the love in the world?
All the jagged edges disappear
Colors all look brighter when you're near
The stars are all afire in the sky
Sometimes I get so lonely I could
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Additional lyrics printed in the With Teeth PDF booklet, but not appearing in the song itself
Why am I always watching from the outside?
On the other side of the glass
Behind glass.
Always watching everyone,
Separate, watching, always
Don't touch.
This is getting deeper
As time goes by,
The water's getting colder.
Here I am surrounded by people but still all alone,
I am always alone.
Even with myself,
Imprisoned in my head.
And there doesn't seem to be any way to get out of here,
And I am so fucking sick of here,
Wish I was there.
Right beside is still
A million miles away.
Behind these bars.
In a rut.
Anyplace else will do.
Hello?
Didn’t think so.
Broadcasting,
Only static coming in.
No one can hear me when I'm in here.
