"Apple Shampoo" is a song by American rock band Blink-182, released on April 14, 1997, in Australia as the first single from the group's second studio album, Dude Ranch (1997). The song was released as a single in Australia only, through an exclusive license with Mushroom Records imprint label Rapido.
The song, which regards a failing relationship, [1] was inspired by the end of Mark Hoppus' relationship with Elyse Rogers of the ska punk band Dance Hall Crashers, with whom Blink toured in 1996. [2] The song's title came from Rogers' favorite type of shampoo. [2] [1] Hoppus said, "[Rogers] always smelt like apple shampoo and that's why I named it 'Apple Shampoo' [be]cause it's about her. It would've been really bad form to name the song 'Elyse from Dance Hall Crashers'." [3]
The song is composed in the key of C major and is set in time signature of common time with a fast tempo of 216 beats per minute. Hoppus's vocal range spans from G4 to A5. [4]
"Apple Shampoo" was released as the band set out on the Australian leg of the Warped Tour 1997. [2] [5] The song was an Australian-only single release celebrating the tour and their fanbase in Australia, which had grown considerably since 1995. [6] [7] The single peaked at number 90 on the Australian singles chart in April 1997. [8]
