Subtle. :) The Beatles sang "Help, I need somebody / Help, not just anybody" - and that's the most general explanation: "somebody" (and other some- words) refers to an unknown/unspecified person, while "anybody" refers to *any* person - with a stronger accent on that part. For example, if you want to tell somebody something, you have a certain thing on mind, and when you want to tell somebody anything, you just want to talk to them, no matter what about. There are a lot more subtleties to that, and in some context the words can't be used interchangeably. Here's a good place to start: http://forum.wordreference.com/showthread.php?t=197248
