Tony pops is a queer artist based in Los Angeles. Following up on the success of 2019's "See Myself In The Mirror" and subsequent releases from last year like "Feeling Good (What Needs to Be Done)" and "Promise Me," his latest offering "Anything You Want Tonight" was inspired by the realization that life is short. This effervescent dance party serves as a reminder to manage personal priorities such that we always find time to do the things that make us happy.
The music video for "Anything You Want Tonight" features dance group Elixirdots from Nigeria, with impressive choreography that is juxtaposed against a fluid array of visual effects. This focus on a lightness of physical motion and a general atmosphere of positivity is a perfect match for the musical groove, which combines layers of warm synthesizer tones with a range of percussive elements. "Anything You Want Tonight" delivers a much-needed boost in these difficult times, and offers escape into a colorful world of aspirational fantasy where scarcity does not exist and we are all able to be our best selves.
Song written and produced by Tony Pops. Choreography and performance by Elixirdots. Video effects by Ryan Cheney.
