Question about the song "Play"

Does anyone have any information about this song? Been revising The Work and
this song always stands out. It sounds like the Violent Femmes and I love it.
Anyone else like this tune?

It's from the NPG Maxi single sessions at Larabee Studios in October 1990.

From the same sessions as My Tree, Positive Place, Oob Bee Shoo (....) and Insatiable.

An earlier config. of the NPG Maxi Single:

Side 1: NPG Pt.1 & 2 / T.C's Rap / Tony's Iggnant Mix / Get Off / Lubricated Lady

Side 2: Love Left Love Right / Ooh Bee Shoo (...) / My Tree / A Positive Place / Play

There was a later config. too where Play was called 'U Want Me 2 What?'.


Forgot to add, this comes from The Vault ( http://www.uptown.se/ )

Thanks, Metro, you always pull through with an answer. I guess if I got
that book I wouldn't have to ask all these questions. I'm glad Tony didn't throw a rap right in the middle of the song.
