The title comes from a line in the song "God in Chicago".[15] Craig Finn said, "It seems like a bit of dark humor in these turbulent political times, but it also rings true: No matter our differences, we all have some very basic wants and needs that line up with each other."[15]
Critical reception
At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 73% based on 15 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[1]
Sarah Murphy of Exclaim! gave the album a 6 out of 10, saying, "We All Want the Same Things won't quench the casual fan's thirst for new drunken bar rock anthems, but for those willing to listen a bit more closely (and quietly), Finn's solo work still provides some stories worth hearing.[6] Sam Sodomsky of Pitchfork gave the album a 7.8 out of 10 and called it "a remarkable record not for sounding like a return-to-form, but for feeling like entirely new territory without sacrificing its thrill or familiarity."[9]
