"Any Song" was a commercial success in South Korea; it debuted atop the Gaon Digital Chart and remained the number one song for seven non-consecutive weeks, becoming the longest running chart topper on the chart. The song further charted at number one on the US Billboard K-pop Hot 100 and number four on the US World Digital Song Sales chart, in addition to charting within the top 10 in Malaysia and Singapore. "Any Song" was the most successful song of the first half of 2020 in South Korea and was certified platinum in the country by the Korea Music Content Association (KMCA). It received a nomination for Song of the Year at the upcoming 2020 Mnet Asian Music Awards.
An accompanying music video was uploaded to Kakao M's YouTube channel simultaneously with the single release, and features Zico hosting a house party for himself. Zico started a dance challenge on TikTok to promote the song. The challenge became viral after several South Korean celebrities responded to it. Zico first performed "Any Song" on You Hee-yeol's Sketchbook in March 2020. Although Zico did not promote the song on any South Korean weekly music program, it won first place on Inkigayo, Music Bank, and Show! Music Core.
Background and composition
"Any Song" was written and produced by Zico, while additional production was handled by Poptime.[1][2] In an interview with GQ Korea, Zico described "Any Song" as "a song made with a lighter heart."[3] He elaborated on the process behind the songwriting in another interview:
"I wanted to make a song people could listen to when they're not thinking about anything. [...] and that was where the concept of ‘Any Song’ came about. If I found myself thinking or deliberating on something, I stopped and relied on instinct for this song. People are always thinking about so many different things, so I thought, at least since it's the beginning of the year, we could just enjoy this song without thinking about much. The song's message is that it has no message."[4]
Musically, "Any Song" has been described as a hypnotic dancehall and hip hop song, featuring a bounce-style melody and "airy" lyrics.[5][6][7] According to several media outlets, the song includes an "addictive" chorus that is backed by an "exciting" rhythm.[8][9] Throughout the song, Zico switches effortlessly between singing and "trendy rapping."[6] The song is composed in the key of A♯ minor, with a tempo of 108 beats per minute, and has a duration of 3:47.[10] The lyrics revolve around the thoughts that cross one's mind at a party. Billboard's Tamar Herman described the song as "a witty tune that acts as if a lyrical stream of consciousness."[5]
Release and promotion
On January 7, 2020, KOZ Entertainment posted a concept teaser on its SNS account that announced the single's title of "Any Song", and its release date.[11][12] The following day, Zico posted a concept photo on his Instagram account.[13] "Any Song" was made available for digital download and streaming in various countries as a single by KOZ Entertainment and Kakao M.[1][14] The song was included as the sixth track on Zico's third extended play Random Box, released on July 1, 2020.[15][16]
The song quickly became viral after Zico started a dance challenge by posting videos of himself and South Korean singers Hwasa and Chungha dancing to "Any Song" on TikTok with the hashtag "Any Song Challenge".[17][18][19][20] The challenge involved performing the "easy-to-follow" choreography by Zico to the track.[6][18] Following the viral trend, numerous South Korean celebrities participated in the dance challenge, including Girls' Generation's Tiffany Young, Sandara Park, Lee Hyori, Crush, Park Shin-hye, Jang Sung-kyu, and Winner's Mino.[7][21][22][23] The challenge started in South Korea, before becoming a trend internationally.[24] The dance challenge videos received over 100 million cumulative views in 10 days and around 800 million in a month.[6][24] On March 23, 2020, Zico performed "Any Song" live for the first time on the South Korean talk show You Hee-yeol's Sketchbook.[25]
Accolades
"Any Song" achieved the top spot on various South Korean weekly music programs, such as SBS' Inkigayo, KBS' Music Bank and MBC's Show! Music Core due to its success on digital platforms.
