"Anywhere Away from Here" is a song by British singer Rag'n'Bone Man and American singer Pink. It was released as a download and for streaming on 9 April 2021 as the second single from Rag'n'Bone Man's second studio album Life by Misadventure.[1]

Background

In a statement talking about the song, Rag'n'Bone Man said, "This song is an honest reflection of wanting to disappear from uncomfortable situations – about the vulnerabilities that we all face. It's an honour to have Pink on this record and I'm so glad she is able to be a part of it."

Pink also said in a statement how she met Rag'n'Bone Man in Europe in 2017 after she first heard his 2016 single "Human", "By then I had already fallen in love with his voice, and when we met in person I quickly learned he has a beautiful soul too. Since then, I knew I wanted to work with him one day. 'Anywhere Away From Here' couldn't be a better song for us to sing together. I'm so honoured to be a part of this collaboration."[2][3]

Composition

The song is composed in the key of B major in common time at a tempo of 65 beats per minute. The vocal range expands more than one octave, from F♯4 to G♯5.[4]

Critical reception

Rob Copsey from the Official Charts Company said, "Following Rag'n'Bone Man's rousing single All You Ever Wanted, we're in ballad territory here – and this is proper balladry of the heart-tugging, goosebump-inducing kind. Production is stripped back to little more than a piano, allowing the emotional grit and growl in each of their vocals to take full flight".[5]

Music video

A music video to accompany the release of "Anywhere Away from Here" was first released onto YouTube on 9 April 2021.[6]
