Okay, I was searching through music and I found Non LP Version. What does Non LP mean?

an LP is a record. Like Be Not Nobody. So that means it's different than the version on the record.

Abbreviated for "Long Play". EPs are "extended play" which refer to singles with more than one track, but under a certain time or track limit. I think it was anything over 5 tracks or 30 min long which is considered an LP.

Singles are actually different from EPs. Ummm...

"Usually, an EP has around 10–25 minutes of music, a single has up to 10 minutes and an album has 25–80 minutes."

Information about Singles, EPs and LPs can be found there if anyone's interested.

So if something isn't included on a CD then it's called a Non LP. So something that isn't like an official release is a Non LP.

It just means it's not on the album. It's still official, though. Swindler is a good example...it's on a Japanese Ordinary Day single.
