Any Love is the sixth studio album by American R&B/soul singer Luther Vandross, released in 1988 (see 1988 in music). It reached the top position on the R&B Album charts that year for two weeks. At the 1989 Grammy Awards, the album was nominated for "Best R&B Vocal Performance, Male" and its title track was nominated for "Best R&B Song". Also, "She Won't Talk to Me" received a nomination for "Best R&B Vocal Performance, Male" in 1990. The album was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The album also features a cover of Major Harris' hit single "Love Won't Let Me Wait".

In 1990, French pianist Alex Bugnon covered the title track on his album Head Over Heels.

Smooth jazz guitarist Norman Brown also covered the song on the After the Storm album in 1994.

Also, the song "The Second Time Around" is a re-recording of a song featured on Vandross's band Luther's 1976 album of the same name.
