"Anthem Part 3" was first teased by the band in December 2022, when drummer Travis Barker posted a clip of him in the studio playing the song.[2] The song has been praised by numerous critics as one of the best on the album. Rolling Stone praised the song for scratching the "nostalgic itch", while Kerrang! heavily praised the instrumentation of all three band members.[3][4]

While never released as a single, "Anthem Part 3" proved to be one of the more successful songs from One More Time.... The song charted favorably in both the US and UK, which included peaking at number 12 on the US Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart. The song also appeared on hot songs charts in Canada and New Zealand.

While the song was already a regular part of their setlist for the supporting tours for One More Time..., the band began promoting it much more heavily following its surprise success. This included the release of a live music video containing footage from their World Tour 2023/2024 and a secret show at a Denny's in Long Beach, California.[5][6]
