“Anytime You Need a Friend” is a heartfelt song featured during the end credits of Disney’s 2004 animated film Home on the Range. Composed by Alan Menken with lyrics by Glenn Slater, the song is performed by The Beu Sisters, a pop trio known for their harmonious vocals.
The lyrics convey a message of unwavering support and friendship, offering comfort to those facing challenges. Lines like “When you’re sad, when you’re feeling low” and “When you’re scared, I will stay with you” emphasize the song’s theme of being there for someone in times of need.
Beyond its appearance in Home on the Range, “Anytime You Need a Friend” was also included in the compilation album Disneymania 2, marking it as the first Disney song to be featured in such a collection before its movie’s theatrical release.
