Opus, Book 3 by Rob Blythe notes the song uses the 7th chord to create a unique musical effect.[5]
Analysis
Popular Culture: Introductory Perspectives postulated that the song encapsulated the "importance of jazz in the constitution of pop culture".[6] Describes it as a "cynical comment on the willingness of humans...to act solely, simply, and remorselessly in their own interest", and deeming this unlawful conduct as part of "all that jazz" one needs to get by.[7] BlueCoupe said in the song, "the ghost of Bob Fosse hangs about".[8]
In 2010, on Over the Rainbow, Andrew Lloyd Webber's show to search for a West End Dorothy Gale in The Wizard of Oz, four girls in a group in the Top 20 had to sing "All That Jazz" to convince Andrew and the judges that they were potential Dorothys. Three of them made it through - Stephanie Davis (who ended up in seventh place), Jessica Robinson (who ended up in fifth place), and Sophie Evans, who made the final and came runner-up. Ruthie Henshall, who had played both Velma and Roxie in the West End's Chicago, coached the girls.
In the American Dad! episode "Hamerican Dad", a variation of the song titled "All That Ham" (which is largely the same outside of the title lyric) was performed by the character of Roger in one of his numerous disguises.
