"It's All Been Done" followed "One Week" out of Stunt, Barenaked Ladies' fourth album, in 1998, and it's Steven Page's song top to bottom: he wrote it and sings lead, with the rest of the band stacking up the backing vocals. Page and Ed Robertson play the guitars, Jim Creeggan bass, Kevin Hearn keyboards and Tyler Stewart drums, and Robertson gets one of his first electric guitar solos on a Barenaked Ladies record. The band produced it with David Leonard and Susan Rogers, and Tom Lord-Alge mixed.
It went to number one in Canada, their highest-charting song at home, and was picked as the theme for the TV series Baby Blues. The video, shot from the point of view of household pets in Andrew Dice Clay's old house, features Hearn bald while he was undergoing chemotherapy.
