I Want Too Much is the second album from Irish rock band A House. It was released in 1990 via Sire. [1]
I Want Too Much sold poorly. A House was dropped from its label. [3]
Doug Brod, in Trouser Press , stated: "This is one amazing record. From the gentle folky strum of the opening "13 Wonderful Love Songs" to "Small Talk," I Want Too Much reveals a band with an uncanny knack for witty pop that actually means something." [4]
"I Think I'm Going Mad" was released as a single (Blanco y Negra NEG43) with "I Want Too Much" as the B-side. The 12" and CD maxi-single versions also included "Why Must We Argue?" and "I Want Too Much, Part 3".

I Don't Want to Grow Up was the first of two albums the Descendents recorded with guitarist Ray Cooper, and their last with original bassist Tony Lombardo, who quit the group because he did not want to go on tour. Though recorded quickly and without much rehearsal time, I Don't Want to Grow Up received positive reviews from critics, who praised its catchy songs, strong melodies, and pop-influenced love songs.
