Anywhere for You (Backstreet Boys song)

"Anywhere for You" is a song by American boy band Backstreet Boys, released on February 24, 1997 by Jive Records as the fifth and final single from their international self-titled debut album. It was also included on the Canadian edition of Backstreet's Back and later included on their debut US album as well. This is one of the earlier recordings on their 1996 debut album. The song was written by Wayne Perry and Gary Baker in 1994, recorded by the group at the end of that year, and produced by Veit Renn. A Spanish version of the song, titled "Donde Quieras Yo Iré," was recorded in late 1995 in Zürich along with a Spanish version of "I'll Never Break Your Heart".

Critical reception

Alan Jones from Music Week wrote that "Anywhere for You" "is an impeccably performed ballad on which the boys indulge in much vocal interplay. The whole thing is decorated with sweet harmonies and smells like another major hit for the rapidly developing group."

Music video

The accompanying music video for "Anywhere for You" features the band on a beach in Miami Beach, Florida on January 11, 1996, engaging in various recreational activities, such as biking and volleyball. Other shots show them singing the song on the rocks by the water.
