          Backstreet Boys (often abbreviated as BSB) is an American vocal group formed in Orlando, Florida in 1993. The group consists of Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, AJ McLean, and cousins Brian Littrell and Kevin Richardson.

    The group rose to fame with their debut international album, Backstreet Boys(1996). In the following year, they released their second international álbum Backstreet's Back(1997) along with their self-titled U.S. debut album, Backstreet Boys(1997), which continued the group's success worldwide. They rose to superstardom with their third studio álbum Millennium(1999) and its follow-up album, Black & Blue(2000). They also released a greatest hits album, The Hits - Chapter One(2001), with their only single, "Drowning". After a two-year hiatus, they regrouped and released a comeback álbum Never Gone(2005). After the conclusion of the Never Gone Tour in 2006, Richardson left the group to pursue other interests. The group then released two albums as a quartet: Unbreakable(2007) and This Is Us(2009).

          In 2012, the group announced that Richardson had rejoined them permanently. In the following year, 2013, they celebrated their 20th anniversary and released their first independent album, In a World Like This(2013). Their álbum DNA(2019) debuted at number one, more than two decades after the group formed, and 19 years after they last topped in 2000. They also became the first boy band to top the U.S. album charts in three decades.

            The Backstreet Boys have sold over 100 million records worldwide, making them the best-selling boy band of all time, and one of the world's best-selling music artists. They are the first group since Led Zeppelin to have their first ten albums reach the top 10 on the Billboard 200, and the only boy band to do so. The albums Backstreet Boys and Millennium were both certified diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), making them one of the few bands to have multiple diamond albums. The group received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on April 22, 2013. The group also announced their residency show, Backstreet Boys: Larger Than Life in Las Vegas from March 2017 to April 2019. The group also released their first documentary movie, titled Backstreet Boys: Show 'Em What You're Made Of in January 2015.

        "Anywhere for You" is a song by American boy band Backstreet Boys. It was released as the fifth single from their international self-titled debut album in 1997. It was 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 and recorded at the end of that year by the group. 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".

I'd go anywhere for you

Anywhere you asked me to

I'd do anything for you

Anything you want me to

 

I'd walk halfway around the world

For just one kiss from you

Far beyond the call of love

The sun, the stars, the moon

As long as your love's there to lead me

I won't lose my way believe me

Even through the darkest night you know

 

I'd go anywhere for you

Anywhere you asked me to

I'd do anything for you

Anything you want me to

Your love as far as I can see

Is all I'm ever gonna need

There's one thing for sure

I know it's true

Baby, I'd go anywhere for you

 

I used to think that dreams were just

For sentimental fools

And I'd never find someone

Who'd give their love so true

But I knew the very minute

Couldn't live my life without you in it

And now I want the whole world

To know

 

I'd go anywhere for you

Anywhere you asked me to

I'd do anything for you

Anything you want me to

Your love as far as I can see

Is all I'm ever gonna need

There's one thing for sure

I know it's true

Baby, I'd go anywhere for you

Hey baby, hey baby, hey baby, oh

Hey baby, hey baby, hey baby, oh

 

I'd go anywhere for you

Anywhere you asked me to

I'd do anything for you

Anything you want me to

Your love as far as I can see

Is all I'm ever gonna need

There's one thing for sure

I know it's true

Baby, I'd go anywhere for you

 

Anywhere you asked me to

I'd do anything for you

Anything you want me to

Your love as far as I can see

Is all I'm ever gonna need

There's one thing for sure

I know it's true

Baby, I'd go anywhere for you.
