"Little Things" is a song by rock band Bush, released on 30 May 1995 as the second single from their 1994 debut album, Sixteen Stone.

Composition[edit]

In a November 2017 interview with SongfactsGavin Rossdale explained the song's inspiration:

The lyrical inspiration was the simple realization of that whole thing about don't be letting the details get you down. I was always feeling encumbered by life and overtaken by life and dwarfed by life, and my feelings and my paranoias and my worries were larger than anything else. So, there was always that pain to try to keep all of those worries at bay. That's just a song about paranoia for the future and paranoia of life. I think it has something to do with trying to be strong in the face of adversity.[1]

Music video[edit]

The video was shot throughout January and February 1995 in an old mansion in upstate New York, Long Island, NY, Los Angeles, and at the band's studio. The video was directed by Matt Mahurin who also directed their previous video for "Everything Zen".[2]
