Matt Maltese, Anytime, Anyplace, Anyhow [📷: Tonight Matthew / The Orchard]London alternative singer/songwriter Matt Maltese ‘puts his foot into’ his honest, relatable, and vulnerable single, “Anytime, Anyplace, Anyhow.”

“I picture you naked at the worst time / Eating with my family, playing live / I don’t care for Spain when you’re in Shanghai.” Matt Maltese is crazy about her in his marvelous song, “Anytime, Anyplace, Anyhow”.  Even at the most inappropriate and inopportune time, he thinks about her particularly physically. The London singer/songwriter composed and produced “Anytime, Anyplace, Anyhow.” The song has many positive attributes.  The songwriting is terrific.  Maltese writes honestly and vulnerably; he’s incredibly relatable. In the centerpiece, the chorus, he sings:

“Anytime, anyplace, anyhow

You’re allowed to call me to your hotel suite

I don’t care who you’re with or where you’ve been

Anytime, anyplace, anyhow

You’re allowed to treat me like a piece of meat

I don’t care if it’s been a year or if it’s been 16.”

Man, oh, man.  Beyond the clever songwriting (“I’m apoplectic looking at the stars”), with its dedicated, romantic, and sentimental vibes, Maltese delivers gorgeous, distinct vocals.  He sings with incredible expression yet never gets too low or too high. The melodies he brings to life are tuneful from start to finish. The harmonic progression and the musical underpinnings add to the excellence. The production work is stunning; Maltese is backed by gorgeous musical accompaniment.  There is a clarinet solo, which you don’t hear often in popular music. Matt Maltese ‘put his foot into’ “Anytime, Anyplace, Anyhow” capturing longing, love, and lust. Bravo!
