==Versions==
===Please===
This is the original album version as it appears on the CD and vinyl editions of ''The Fragile.'' Flowing directly either from the introduction (CD) or ending (vinyl) of "[[10 Miles High]]," it opens immediately with the verse drum loop, synthesized bass, and manipulated guitars for eight bars before reducing to the first verse, accompanying Reznor's vocals with only the drum loop and a bass riff. Other synthesizer and guitar layers join in to lead into the pre-chorus, with Reznor accompanying himself as a backing vocalist. The chorus is sung low, almost spoken over a decaying synthesizer note, leading into the second verse and pre-chorus. The final chorus is extended, featuring a reversed string loop. The song stops as suddenly as it began.
===Please (Instrumental)===
Released exclusively through Apple Music, then later on ''The Fragile: Deviations 1.''
===Please (+Appendage)===
Exclusive to the cassette version, this version combines "Please " with "[[+Appendage]]".
==Live==
The song was performed several times during the Fragility v1.0 and With Teeth Spring Arena tours. It was also performed in soundchecks for [[Performance 2007]]. "+Appendage" [[NIN songs never played live|has never been played live]].
==Lyrics==
Yeah yeah yeah yeah, but it just left me dead
(Well guess what?)
The world is over and I realized realize it was all in my head
Now everything is clear
To fill me up
The third lyric line of the first verse was changed on the actual recording:
Push it away but it all comes back again
The sixth line of the second verse only appears in the album booklet for ''The Fragile''.
