“I’d Do Anything” is a song written and recorded by English band Dead or Alive. It was co-produced by the band and Zeus B. Held and released in January 1984 as the third single from Dead or Alive’s debut album Sophisticated Boom Boom.
The song was the third consecutive single by Dead or Alive to miss the UK Top 75, hitting number seventy-nine in the UK Singles Chart. The band’s fortunes would reverse with the release of their next single, a cover version of “That’s the Way (I Like It)”.
