In an October 2003 interview with Songfacts, lead singer Art Alexakis explained the meaning behind "Everything to Everyone":
It's kind of an angry song. That person is within everybody, I think everybody has this ability to try and be everything to everyone, to try to please. I think there are two aspects of it - there's the pleaser, who doesn't always show his true self, always plays nice and as time goes on shows more and more of himself, but there's also the people who are everything to everyone who are manipulators and users.
When asked if the song had "anything to do with the record business", Alexakis replied, "Oh yeah. Anything in the entertainment business you'll find people who are slimy."[5]
