When interviewed by MTV, Carr talked about the song, saying "I am the girl that lives in her Pokémon pajamas, orders food in, works late and is scared of the concept of growing a human inside of me. When I wrote 'Play House,' it was about a boy that made me want to dress super-girly, cook for him and have tiny human babies with him! That was something I’d never felt before. So I decided to write a song about it." [1]
The music video for "Play House", which was directed by Shane Drake, was released on February 3 [2] after being uploaded exclusively on MTV the day before. The music video has a 1950s theme. The video opens up with Carr's love interest pulling up to the house, being invited inside and when left alone, he starts to explore the house. Along the way he finds, two children dress similarly to him and Carr then witnessing Carr hacking away at something bloody and also being harassed by a red headed woman who looks similar to Carr. In the end, she convinces him that the things he was seeing was all in his head until it is revealed that Carr is the red headed woman in a wig.
