Play to Win: The Virgin Years (deluxe edition)

~ Release by Heaven 17 (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

Some incorrect tracks appear on the release:
3-13: "Counterforce" instead of "Counterforce II" as listed. ("Counterforce II" appears on the "Sunset Now" 12" singles and 2006 reissues of the “How Men Are” album).
4-12: "Counterforce" instead of "Contenders (US 7" Edit)".
7-5: “Endless” version of "Let Me Go" instead of '12" Version'". (“Endless” version includes extra acapella vocals at the beginning. "12" version" appears on the "Let Me Go!" 12" singles and on the 2006 and later reissues of the “The Luxury Gap” album).
8-1: album version of "Penthouse And Pavement" instead of 'Remix by John ‘Tokes’ Potoker'. (The Remix can be found on “Endless” but is segued with other tracks).
9-5: “Endless” version of "We Live So Fast" instead of 'Extended Version'. (“Endless” version begins with a drum beat from the preceding "Heaven 17 Megamix" (on "Endless"), gradually speeding up to the speed of the main track. The original 'Extended version' starts at the correct speed."
