Tekneek's behind-the-scenes video for the making of "Anything Goes"

"Anything Goes" is an unreleased song by Big Time Rush. On April 14, 2011, producer Dan "Tekneek" Wayne published a behind-the-scenes video of himself, BTR member Carlos PenaVega, writer Cody Williams, and producer Charley "Casanova" Greenberg working in the studio.[1] The video contained two brief snippets of a track, which, according to PenaVega, was titled "Anything Goes". The snippets feature PenaVega's vocals as well as Williams' demo vocals.[2] The following day, Tekneek deleted and re-uploaded the video, with the snippets removed.[3][4]

The studio session for "Anything Goes" was one of many held to write and produce tracks for Big Time Rush's then-forthcoming sophomore album, which would eventually develop into Elevate. The song was ultimately not included on the album and remains unreleased.

Lyrics[]

'Cause you won't know unless you try to step it up
Gotta stop the pressure, never giving up–

Some people think I don't understand (oh no)
When I say know my destiny (I know my destiny)
They tell me I'm just a fool for believing (oh yeah)
But you can't stop–

Trivia[]

  • Williams, Greenberg, and Tekneek also wrote the song "Invisible", which was included as the eighth track on Elevate.
