"Everything Must Go" is a song by Welsh alternative rock band Manic Street Preachers, released as the second single from their fourth studio album, Everything Must Go (1996), on 22 July 1996. The song reached number five on the UK Singles Chart.

Background

[edit]

The song is cited by Wire as a message to the fans, saying the music had changed after the loss of Richey Edwards, but the band is still the same.[1] Ushering in a new era for the band, Wire's lyric asks fans to forgive them for changing: "and I just hope that you can forgive us, but everything must go".[2]

James Dean Bradfield has said Sean Moore had a lot of freedom in the drums for his song. By contrast to several previous Manic Street Preachers singles, the drums are not "compressed", but are more open and free, giving a sense of disorder in the song.[2] The song features a prominent string section that commentators such as Q magazine's Tom Doyle have compared to the songs of Phil Spector and his Wall of Sound.[3]
