"My All" is a song by American singer-songwriter Mariah
Carey from her sixth studio album, Butterfly (1997). It was
released as the album's fourth and second commercial single on April 21, 1998
by Columbia Records. The song was written and
produced by Carey and Walter
Afanasieff. "My All" is built around Latin guitar chord melodies,
and makes subtle use of Latin percussion throughout the first chorus,
before taking on a more conventional contemporary
R&B-style beat. Carey was inspired to write the song and use Latin
inspired melodies after her trip to Puerto Rico, where she was influenced by
the culture. The song's lyrics tell of a lonely woman declaring she would give
"her all" to have just one more night with her estranged lover.
