Quixotic was released in the United States one year later, in 2004. Licensed to the Palm Pictures label, the album was retitled Anything and the track list was altered – including the omission of three tracks originally found on Quixotic. Additionally, the song mixes differ, and the "Intro" track was moved to the end of the album, retitled "Outro".[13]
