"All the Things She Said" is a song by Russian duo t.A.T.u. from their first English studio album 200 km/h in the Wrong Lane (2002). The song was released as the album's lead single on 19 August 2002. It was written by Sergio Galoyan, Trevor Horn, Martin Kierszenbaum, Elena Kiper and Valeriy Polienko, while production was by Horn. "All The Things She Said" is the English-language version of their 2000 single "Ya Soshla S Uma".

"All The Things She Said" received mixed reviews from music critics, while some commended the production and lyrical content, others called it a gimmick and suggestive. The song reached number one in several countries around the world, including Australia, Austria, France, New Zealand, Switzerland and the UK. "All The Things She Said" reached number twenty on the US Billboard Hot 100, the first Russian act to accomplish this. Ivan Shapovalov commissioned the accompanying music video for the single, which shows the group behind a fence in school uniforms, trying to escape.

The music video caused considerable controversy in several nations because it depicted themes of lesbianism. Several organisations protested the video to be banned, while some music stations removed the scene with the girls kissing. The song had been performed many times, including on many MTV live shows, along with a megamix with "Not Gonna Get Us" at the MTV Movie Awards.

It was also the first Russian music video in YouTube to received a Vevo Certified Award for reaching 100,000,000 views on June 2016.

Yulia Volkova and Lena Katina auditioned in a children group named Neposedi. However, Volkova was removed from the group a year later. Russian tabloids believed her removal was based on misbehavior and disrupting other members by stripping, smoking, drinking alcohol and swearing, but Neposedi denied this. Russian producers Ivan Shapovalov and Alexander Voitinskiy held an audition for two teenage girls, where Volkova and Katina auditioned and won the part. Despite knowing each other, both girls did not know they were auditioning. For their Russian debut in 1999, Shapolavov named the duo Taty. The name origins from the English word "Tattoo".
