It was released in May 2013[2] as the first single from his eighth studio album Fuse.[3][4] This is Keith's first top 40 hit on the US Billboard Hot 100 since "Only You Can Love Me This Way" in 2009. Content"Little Bit of Everything" is about a man who expresses "a whole assortment of other desires to live life to its fullest."[6] The song's concept came from a conversation that songwriting duo The Warren Brothers (Brad Warren and Brett Warren) had with Kevin Rudolf over their varied musical interests. According to Brett, the song was sent to Urban, who is friends with the Warren Brothers, but he was initially unaware that they wrote it.[5] CompositionUnlike on his last five albums, which he co-produced with Dann Huff, Urban co-produced this song with Nathan Chapman. As for the arrangement, Urban said that he found the song interesting because it put less emphasis on the chorus than on the verses, as opposed to most songs, in which the chorus is "kind of bigger."[6] The introduction features a ukulele that was "chopped up" to create a stuttering sound. This part was inspired by Madonna's 2001 single "Don't Tell Me".[7] The bass line is also played on a synthesizer, due to the first two bass guitarists that they contacted being unavailable.[8] The song is in the key of A-flat major with a main chord pattern of A{{flat}}–D{{flat}}–E{{flat}}. It has a moderately fast tempo in a 2/2 time signature.[9] Urban says he got the name of the song from a dish on the menu at El San Jose, a Mexican restaurant in South Carolina. He overheard another customer saying, "I just want a little bit of everything" and got the idea for the song's chorus. The next thing he had to do was make a funky ukulele beat to go around it. Urban would personally like to thank Pablo (his waiter the night he ate there) for the song's inspiration. Critical receptionBilly Dukes of Taste of Country gave the song three and a half stars out of five, writing that Urban "wraps his arms around the spirit of the song and doesn’t try to make it something bigger than a catchy, feel-good, open-road anthem."[10] Matt Bjorke of Roughstock gave the song four stars out of five, saying that it "showcases a pop-leaning sound without abandoning the style that Keith Urban has come to be known for."[11] Music videoThe music video was directed by Isaac Ravishankara and premiered on 25 July 2013.[12] PersonnelFrom liner notes to Fuse:[13]
