Their fourteen album catalog, recorded for Germany's MPS records and now available as the "Magic Voices" collection, reflects the best of what the human voice is capable. The arrangements that member Gene Puerling wrote for the group were nothing short of a revelation-and the group's use of studio multi-tracking (a burgeoning technology) developed a sound never heard before. The name "Singers Unlimited" is forever inscribed in the annals of vocal jazz, and deservedly so.
Puerling's Singers Unlimited arrangements earned him the reputation as one of the best vocal writers in the world. Members of the renowned jazz-gospel vocal group Take 6 often gives credit to Puerling and the Singers Unlimted as innovators in the a cappella world, claiming that they "went to school" on Puerling's arrangements.

To lead a better life
I need my love to be here

Here, making each day of the year
Changing my life with a wave of her hand
Nobody can deny that there's something there
There, running my hands through her hair
Both of us thinking how good it can be

Someone is speaking, but she doesn't know he's there

[Chorus: x2]
I want her everywhere
And if she's beside me I know I need never care
But to love her is to need her everywhere
Knowing that love is to share
Each one believing that love never dies
Watching her eyes and hoping I'm always there

I will be there

And everywhere
Here, there and everywhere

Overall Meaning

The Singers Unlimited's song "Here There And Everywhere" is a love song that talks about the importance of having someone to love, by one's side. The first verse of the song talks about the need to have love in one's life to lead a better life. The singer emphasizes the importance of having his love always there, every day of the year. The next line says that the presence of his love can transform his life with a simple wave of her hand. The third line talks about the undeniable aspect of the love between them. The singer uses the line nobody can deny that there's something there to acknowledge the significance of the connection between the two people.

The second verse of the song talks about the intimacy of the relationship between the two people in love. Running his hands through her hair, both of them thinking about how good it can be, the singer portrays how the passion between the two is strong. The final line of the verse is where he says that he is there, but someone else is speaking and she doesn't even know. This line is significant since it can be interpreted in different ways. It could mean that there is trouble in paradise, and even though he is present, she is not paying attention to him. It could also mean that their love transcends everything and other people do not matter.

The chorus of the song repeats the desire for the love of his life to be everywhere. The line "And if she's beside me I know I need never care" conveys that if she is with him, nothing else matters. He then goes on to say, "But to love her is to need her everywhere, knowing that love is to share." This line is significant because it is mutual love meaning they both feel it, and it is about wanting to share it everywhere. The last two lines talk about how both parties believe that love never dies, and while watching her eyes, he hopes that he is still always there.
