"Anything, Anything" is the tenth track on the album ...No Sun Today. The song was released as a radio single.
Background
The song is a cover of Dramarama's "Anything, Anything (I'll Give You)" from the 1985 album Cinéma Vérité. Grey Daze's version was released as a radio single and received regular airplay on The Edge 106.3 during a Sunday night show that played music from local bands.[1] The lyrics "When I was young I learned a game" were replaced by "When I was young I played a game".
DC Dark Nights Death Metal Soundtrack
On June 18, 2021, the DC Dark Nights Death Metal soundtrack was released digitally by DC and Loma Vista Recordings. As a part of the soundtrack, Grey Daze released a new version of their Dramarama cover "Anything Anything" created with Tyler Bates. On Instagram, the band called this "Retro Version" and commented on YouTube that the version that would be on their next album ("The Phoenix") would be a different version of the song.

Live
Grey Daze began playing "Anything, Anything" live before the depature of Jonathan Krause and also performed it for a while after Chester Bennington and Mace Byers were replaced by Jodi Wendt and Dave Sardegna in 1998. When Sean and Chester formed Bucket Of Weenies in 2005, the song became part of their setlists and was performed until their final show in 2006.
According to several Grey Daze members and people who worked with the band, "Anything, Anything" was the biggest crowd pleaser.[2] It was also one of Sean Dowdell's favorite songs to play live.[3]
Kerry Rose, their manager, mentioned one concert in particular which was memorable for him: "We did a small tour into Southern California, including a fantastic show at the Whiskey a Go Go on the Sunset Strip.[...] It's a fantastic - very famous venue, and they have a killer sound system. There was 3-400 people at the show and they really got into the band. When they did "Anything, Anything", the place went nuts. The sound guy thought it was better than the original version. I just remember it being a particularly good show."[2]
According to Samantha's book, Chester proposed to her during the show Grey Daze opened for Seven Mary Three in March 1996.[4]

Lyrics
Okay, what is it tonight?
Please just tell me what the hell is wrong
Do you wanna eat, do you wanna sleep, do you wanna shout?
Just settle down, settle down, settle down
Well I'll give you candy, give you diamonds, give you pills
I'll give you anything you want, hundred dollar bills
I'll even let you watch the shows you wanna see
Cause you married me, married me, married me
I'm so sick of you tonight
You never stay awake when I get home
Is something wrong with me? Is something wrong with you?
I really wish I knew, wish I knew, wish I knew
Well I'll give you candy, give you diamonds, give you pills
I'll give you anything you want, hundred dollar bills
And I'll even let you watch the shows you wanna see
Cause you married me, married me, married me
Yeah
When I was young I played a game,
That love and happiness were the same,
And now I'm older and I don't play,
I found out the hardest way
I got wasted, she got mad, called me names and she called her dad,
He got crazy and I did too, wondered what I did to you.
Well I'll give you candy, give you diamonds, give you pills
I'll give you anything you want, hundred dollar bills
And I'll even let you watch the shows you wanna see
I'll do anything, anything, anything
Anything, anything, anything
Anything
Anything
Anything, hey, yeah
