"Just Push Play" is the title track from American hard rock band Aerosmith's 2001 album Just Push Play. The song was written by Steven Tyler, Mark Hudson, and Steve Dudas. It was released as the fourth single from Just Push Play in 2001, and peaked at #10 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and #38 on the Top 40 Mainstream chart.
[edit] Song Structure
The song is known for its distorted guitars, use of synthesizers (especially with drums and lyrics), and Steven Tyler's scat singing. The chorus of the song also features the phrase "fuckin' A" which is bleeped out through use of a turntable for much of the song, until the end, when the expletive can actually be heard a few times. The song also features a reference to "Walk This Way".
[edit] In Other Media
The song was performed heavily on Aerosmith's Just Push Play Tour and was also featured in Dodge commercials, during the band's 2001 partnership with the car company. The song was also played during Aerosmith's performace at the historic United We Stand: What More Can I Give benefit concert in October 2001. The track was also included in Aerosmith's 2002 career-spanning compilation O, Yeah! The Ultimate Aerosmith Hits.
