Anytime You Need A Freind (Soul Convention Remix)

The Soul Convention re-vocalled remix of Anytime You Need Friend from the 1994 CD single. Lyrics;

Anytime you feel that you need a friend
And your troubles seem like they never end
Though you're miles away, I'll be by your side
Don't you be afraid, 'cause it's alright

If you're lonely
And need a friend
And troubles seem like they never end
Just remember to keep the faith
And love will be there to light the way

Anytime you need a friend
I will be here
You'll never be alone again
So don't you fear
Even if you're miles away
I'm by your side
So don't you ever be lonely
Love will make it alright

And when the shadows are closing in
And your spirit diminishing
Just remember, you're not alone
And love will be there, yeah
To guide you home

Anytime you need a friend
I will be here
Never be alone again
So don't you fear
Even if you're miles away
I'm by your side
Don't you ever be lonely
Love will make it alright

Anytime you feel that you need a friend
And your troubles seem like they never end
Though you're miles away, I'll be by your side
Don't you be afraid, 'cause it's alright

Anytime you need a friend
I will be here
Never be alone again
So don't you fear
Even if you're miles away
I'm by your side
So don't you ever be lonely
It's alright
It's alright

Anytime you need a friend
I will be here
Never be alone again
So don't you fear
Even if you're miles away
I'm by your side
So don't worry
Don't ever be lonely
It's alright
It's alright

Anytime you need a friend
I will be here
Never be alone again
So don't you fear
Even if you're miles away
I'm by your side
So don't you ever be lonely, no
It's alright
It's alright

Anytime you need a friend
I will be here
Never be alone again
So don't you fear
Even if you're miles away
I'm by your side
So don't you ever be lonely
It's alright
It's alright

Mariah's ear for melody is so amazing. I agree her vocal runs also always make melodic sense. Indeed just perfectly placed. I think Christina is a fantastic singer (aside from the occaisional screaming) but she goes way overboard with the vocal runs and randomly puts them everywhere making it very hard to listen to her. Mariah popularized singing with melisma, and despite what people say, knows how to use it. Christina doesn't.

This song has seen me through. Mariah is more than a vocalist. She has the ability to touch your soul. That is a God given gift that cannot be imitated.

Mariah's timbre and resonance quality is unreal at times. It's God. Particularly the "rit" of "spirit" of 1:35-1:36. Unreal.

Amazing, enough said!

[breakup230]

do you know any song of mariah which is like the first 28 seconds from this song? not exactly but you know :P

[BlackLightning20101]

@robbyam With rest and proper vocal care and preparation, Mariah can sing this just as well or even better. If you're talking about her tone, well, duh! No one is going to have the same timbre and tone in their singing voice after they've been singing for over 10 years, much less 20. Look at Aretha...she can still sing her tail off but she sounds different now compared to how she sounded back in 1969.

I'm obsessed with the beginning of this song. I can't believe I've never heard it before!

[alastarification]

This song is the precursor to the R&B mariah to come.....next album daydream

[rainbowmadtown21]

@MissyJayG I agree totally, you know my friends mom used too say back in the day that Mariahs runs made her seem like she couldn't hold a steady note, umm it takes more control and ability too do the runs that she does in my opinion, Mariah is the FORM of music!!!!
