That's a bit different, because Miles himself refers to the song they did together with that title in his biography. As far as we know, "Can I Play With U" is the only one they did together around that time.

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

It took me quite a while to realize that "A Better Place 2 Die" was "Moonbeam Levels" too. I had gotten it during the tape trading days and I couldn't really tell what he was singing during the chorus. Then when I realized that song was indeed the fabled "Moonbeam Levels" it was quite a revelation to me. I had dug the song a lot, but thought it was one of those songs that would be more to my personal liking and that it wouldn't be necessarily a fan favourite.

The "change" of the title actually makes the whole song seem less dark.

Oh, man. Yeah.

I was disappointed to learn that "If U Break My Heart One More Time" was actually called "Last Heart" - the assumed title from Per Nilsen's book is much better.
