Trivia
This event is one of two events in the game to not have a "beat" argument, the other being Set Crotchets Per Bar.
This is the only event in the game that, regardless of zoom, spans two beats visually in the editor's timeline.
Placing multiple Play Song events causes the waveform to be a thick line on top of the first song's waveform. This does not affect playback.
