Welcome to my 484th solo guitar video on YouTube, "Any Way You Want It" by Journey! I'm actually spending a fair amount of time working on Aja by Steely Dan which has a whole lot of chords so while that's happening here is something with just 4 chords... ;-) And actually, paying tribute to one of my childhood heroes, Neal Schon. Please "like", comment, share and subscribe so I can continue to post these weekly arrangements. Thank you :-)

BTW, I have two more Journey songs on my channel, Who's Crying Now, which actually comes with a free lesson: [ Ссылка ] as well as Faithfully, which you will love: [ Ссылка ]

From Wikipedia:

"Any Way You Want It" is a song by American rock band Journey. It was released in February 1980 as the lead single from their sixth studio album Departure. Written by lead singer Steve Perry and guitarist Neal Schon, it peaked at number 23 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. 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 (notably Caddyshack, Pitch Perfect 2 and Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted), television series, such as The Big Bang Theory and advertisements. 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 while they were 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"[2] commented Perry. Schon and Perry would then rework on the song in the band bus, with Schon on acoustic guitar and Perry on vocals. 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.
