Considering ‘Play Some D’ is the backing music to a mobile phone advert, it’s hardly surprising that it’s annoying.

Released originally in 2000, it’s back out to bland over my day. Its dishwater-dull groove inspires me to half-heartedly scratch my arse, adjust my socks and bite a bit of skin from the side of my index finger. Frankly, it just makes me want to pull it out of the player. A funkless groove, looped for 3:43 with an awful awful female MC laying out schoolyard rhymes. Y’know, that’s all it is. I promise you I’m not being lazy or just using this as a bitching forum.

Dreadful. As weak as piss. It’s pants.

Can this be the same label that Free Kitten and Cornershop are on?

Brassy - Play Some D

And I disagree vehmenently! It is superb as are Brassy. 'Play Some D' & 'I Can't Wait' were superb singles and that whole genre which broadly comprises such acts as Ciccone, Bis, Deadbeat Radicals et al is just ace! I know, not a very structured arguement but I think the song is REALLY good.

Re: Brassy - Play Some D

Play Some D is very 2000, though that's not a bad thing and I remember watching Brassy several times during their, ahem, heyday. If this charts it'll almost atone for the sins of the nation for ignoring them for so long they split up before Motorola got wind of this tune.

Re: Brassy - Play Some D

what the hell does "very 2000" mean?
