Anything She Does is a song by the British band Genesis, appearing as the fifth track on their highly successful 1986 album Invisible Touch. The lyrics were written by keyboard player Tony Banks.
The All Music Guide has described the song's lyrics as "a humorous look at pin-up models" [1]. Lyrically, the song draws comparisons to Genesis' 1980 single Turn it on Again, as both deal with longing for fictional figures. The horns you hear in the songs are played on an Emu Emulator by Tony Banks. The horn sample itself is taken from a horn chart of one of the bands previous songs, Paperlate, which featured the Earth, Wind & Fire horn section.
This was the only track off Invisible Touch that Genesis did not play live on their subsequent tour.
[edit] Video
Though not officially released as a single, a music video of the song exists. It features Benny Hill as an incompetent security guard whom many fans can sneak past to get backstage while the band rehearses. He later finds the people who've snuck past him have made a mess of a hospitality room, yet manages to clear them all out and restore the room to its original condition just as the band returns to see it.
