Any Way You Want It
"Any Way You Want It" is a popular song performed by Journey, released on the album ''Departure'' as the opening track and as a single in 1980. The song was written by lead vocalist Steve Perry and guitarist Neal Schon. It peaked at #23 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart. The band often plays it to close their concerts. It appears on all four of the band's live albums (''Captured'', ''Greatest Hits Live'', ''Live in Houston 1981: The Escape Tour'', and ''Revelation'' on DVD). Since its release, the song has continued to infiltrate public consciousness through its use in numerous movies, television series, and advertisements.
==Composition==
According to Perry, the song was heavily influenced by Irish rock band Thin Lizzy and more particularly by bassist Phil Lynott. In July 1979, Journey were touring with Thin Lizzy across the United States when Lynott, Perry and Schon decided to share rhyme scheme exercises during a hanging out in Miami. The "basic" work on "the guitar-vocal-guitar-vocal interchange thing that happened between Phil and his lyrics and the guitarist and his arrangements, inspired the Any Way You Want It sorta give and take thing. It's guitar-voice, guitar-voice, more guitar-guitar-guitar-voice. It be voice-voice and back and forth and that's something that Neal and I think just instinctually picked up by hanging out with him"〔Off the Record (December 30, 2006): http://www.steveperryfanclub.homestead.com/OTRDecember2006.html〕 commented Perry. Schon and Perry would then rework on the song in the band bus, with Schon on acoustic guitar and Perry on vocals.〔Steve Perry Fanclub, liner notes excerpts on ''Time3'' : http://www.steveperryfanclub.homestead.com/Time3.html〕 Lynott's contribution later influenced other songs built on the same scheme such as "Stone In Love".
For the studio version, keyboardist Gregg Rolie originally used a mellotron. Since it was defective, co-producer Geoff Workman decided to fix the sound by doubling it with Rolie's regular organ in the final mixing, thus creating the unique sounding background support for the song.〔
