Vera Blue put out "All the Pretty Girls" in October 2018, and the Australian singer-songwriter told Triple J she wrote it in Los Angeles with Fleetwood Mac on her mind. She called it "a cheeky play on stereotypes", a song about sizing people up on looks alone: the snap verdict that someone you're drawn to must be a player who leaves every girl in tears. It's a judgment she admitted is a bit cruel and not really her style. The pretty girls of the title, she explained, are simply all girls, because in her view every one of them is pretty.
Jared Daperis directed the video, which followed on November 29, 2018, and the single went platinum in Australia in January 2020.
