"Any Time, Any Place" is a song by American singer-songwriter

studio album, Janet (1993). It was written and produced by Jackson along with production duo Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, and released as the album's fifth single on May 11, 1994, by Virgin Records. A remix produced by R. Kelly was also released. "Any Time, Any Place" reached number two on the US Billboard Hot 100
and became another R&B chart-topper for Jackson. She has performed the song on several of her tours.

Composition

"Any Time, Any Place" was co-written and co-produced by Jackson and

fingersnaps, with additional sounds of rain and thunder. The chorus of the song depicts Jackson singing "I don't care who's around" during her public lovemaking.[4][5] According to Sputnikmusic, the song "oozes with the longing to be touched".[6]

American singer R. Kelly made a remix of the song, which along with the CJ's 12" Mix, appeared on Jackson's 1995 remix compilation album Janet Remixed.[7]

Critical reception

"Any Time, Any Place" received positive reviews from

Cash Box wrote, "Exactly one year after the release of the janet album comes the issue of one of its best tracks, this burning, down-tempo grinder. The single release prunes the original 7-minute song down to a tidy and most attractive 4 1/2-minute winner."[10] Philadelphia Daily News's Chuck Arnold called the song a "delicate, aching ballad", which "warmly climaxes the carnality with a cooing vow of insatiability".[11] Sal Cinquemani from Slant Magazine noted that the song "provides a genuine climax: It's an oozing, slow-paced romp".[3]

Chart performance

The song held the number-one position on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs for ten weeks and became Jackson's biggest hit on the chart; it also peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 while it saw limited success in Europe and Australia.

Live performances

Jackson performed "Any Time, Any Place" on

It was later included on the 2008 Rock Witchu Tour, as an interlude for the performance of "Discipline", on which she and her dancers pull up a male audience member and strap him into a harness; he was then suspended midair as Jackson teased him with a highly suggestive set of moves and the breathy soft-core porn of the track.[21][22] She repeated the performance during the 2010 Essence Music Festival.[23] Additionally, an interlude of the song was included on the 2011 Number Ones, Up Close and Personal.[24] It was also included on her 2015–16 Unbreakable World Tour, sampling Kendrick Lamar's "Poetic Justice".[25] It was later added to her performances at the 2018 and 2022 Essence Music Festival, held in New Orleans, Louisiana, which she headlined. It was also included on the second leg of the State of the World Tour in 2018. It was also included on the setlist of her 2019 Las Vegas residency Janet Jackson: Metamorphosis, sampling Lamar's "Poetic Justice" and Ginuwine's "Pony"; during the performance, a male fan was brought onstage and was sat strapped to a chair. Jackson also included the song on her 2023 Together Again Tour. [26]
