"Anywhere Is" is a song by Irish singer Enya, released as the lead single from her fourth studio album, The Memory of Trees, on 6 November 1995. The lyrics of the song are in English. It peaked at number seven on the UK Singles Chart and became a top-10 hit in Austria, Iceland, Ireland, and Scotland. On the Eurochart Hot 100, the song peaked at number 36.


"Anywhere Is" is developed from a staccato line that Enya has described had a "march feel". Initially it was a track that she and producer Nicky Ryan wanted to reject for the album The Memory of Trees. But it was developed further after Rob Dickins, then chairman of Warner Music UK who had signed Enya, was invited to Ireland in August 1995 to listen to the album, roughly one year-and-a-half into the recording process. It was only its backing tracks that had been put down, but Dickins sensed the song had the makings of a hit single and encouraged them to complete it; it was the final track of the new album to be worked on. Enya's melody for the song inspired Roma Ryan to write lyrics about, as Billboard magazine put it, "the search for the temporal heaven all cultures call 'home'", a subject that Enya felt was important as she only writes and rehearses her songs in Ireland. Dickins received a dedication on the album's sleeve in Gaelic.


"Anywhere Is" entered the UK Singles Chart at number 12 on 12 November 1995 and peaked at number seven the next week. It was also a top-10 hit in Austria, Iceland, and Ireland and a top-20 hit in Poland and the Netherlands. On the Eurochart Hot 100, "Anywhere Is" reached number 36 on 16 December. Outside Europe, the song peaked at number 34 in Australia and number 62 in Canada. It received a silver record in the United Kingdom, shipping over 200,000 units.
