Anything She Does
"Anything She Does" is a song by the British band Genesis. It appears as the fifth track on their highly successful 1986 album ''Invisible Touch'', opening the second side of the vinyl and cassette editions. The lyrics were written by their keyboardist Tony Banks. Lyrically, the song is about a man who is in love with a pin-up girl. He feels the pain that he can never have a relationship with her in real life, instead of his imagination. AllMusic has described the song's words as "a humorous look at pin-up models". The brass sound in the song is played on an E-mu Emulator II by Banks. The sample itself is taken from a horn chart of one of the band's previous songs, " Paperlate", which featured the Earth, Wind & Fire horn section. "Anything She Does" was the only track from ''Invisible Touch'' that the band did not perform live on their subsequent tour. Banks stated in the documentary portion of their ''Visible Touch'' home video that it was too difficult to play. Music video T ...

Songs Written By Tony Banks (musician)
A song is a musical composition intended to be performed by the human voice. This is often done at distinct and fixed pitches (melodies) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs contain various forms, such as those including the repetition and variation of sections. Written words created specifically for music, or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs composed in a simple style that are learned informally "by ear" are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows to the mass market are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers, and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical compo ...

Page 3
Page 3, or Page Three, was a British newspaper convention of publishing a large image of a topless female glamour model (known as a Page 3 girl) on the third page of mainstream red-top tabloids. '' The Sun'' introduced the feature, publishing its first topless Page 3 image on 17 November 1970. ''The Sun''s sales doubled over the following year, and Page 3 is partly credited with making ''The Sun'' the UK's bestselling newspaper by 1978. In response, competing tabloids including the ''Daily Mirror'', the ''Sunday People'', and the ''Daily Star'' also began featuring topless models on their own third pages. Notable Page 3 models included Linda Lusardi, Samantha Fox, and Katie Price. Attitudes toward Page 3 varied widely.
