"All She Wrote" is a song by New Zealand band Six60, released as a single in February 2021, during their Six60 Saturdays tour. The song was a hit for the band, reaching number one in New Zealand.
The band first wrote the chords for the song on an old guitar, which only had three remaining strings. [2] The song was produced by Malay, [3] and the song's lyrics were inspired by acceptance. [4]
The song was debuted live on 16 January 2021 during the band's first performance of the Six60 Saturdays tour of New Zealand, [5] and was released just prior to the final performance of the tour in Hamilton. [6]
The song's music video features a number of cameos by New Zealand celebrities, including sportspeople Dan Carter and Joseph Parker, politician Chlöe Swarbrick, musicians Dave Dobbyn and Mitch James, and newscasters Mike McRoberts and Samantha Hayes. [7] The video's concept was inspired by the idea of musicians testing their music through car speakers before release, [7] and is an homage to "How Bizarre" (1995) by OMC. [4]
The song was nominated for the 2021 Aotearoa Music Award for Single of the Year award. [8]
