Eeeew.  There's something creepy, slimey about this guy — like how I felt when I sat on a slug on the toilet seat in a the middle of the night.

I would have to say that would be the song Let Down by Radiohead.   This is my favorite Moby song and a certain candidate for the best song of this new millenium.  Another candidate would be the first track off the CD Lift Your Skinny Fists to Heaven Like Antennas by GYBE.

just beautiful! doesnt matter if its overplayed, that cant change the value of music... 
inspired that cant be underestimated

I suppose you gave this a 10?

Makes me wonder, what was the song of the last millennium? I'm curious to hear different ideas.

For me, there are no less than a hundred, but close to the top of my list is Come Together.
I don't know, I just find it wicked in so many ways...

I really hope not. It seems to me to be a terrible shame to think that we've reached a peak in any field that will not be beaten for a thousand years.

Not a bad song, but I hope to hear music I enjoy far more over whatever proportion of this millennium is allotted to me by fate.

 

This is now as a "classic". Excellent, Overplayed, but that's not mr. Melville's fault

...this brings tears in my eyes.......hearing it while cutting onions in the kitchen at max.vol.............perfect.....

I've listened to quite a bit, actually, but I've found most of his music to be bland, boring and "meh".

That is incorrect.  Moby is a fairly proficient guitarist and a singer in additional to being an extremely proficient producer.

On this track he's singing the bulk of the vocals.  Clearly not the "hey hey woman" part, that's Pilar, but the verses are Moby.

Beautiful... and timeless!

Clearly, you haven't listened to enough Moby.  

Hey it's Moby's only good song! woohoo!

Classic NYC lounge music! In the late '90s, Moby popped up in the rotation of every other LES or E Village hipster hangout I strolled into.
And on the other side of the country, as I drove along the western edge of Lake Mead some 5 years ago, on a cloudless night in a hot rental car with a sun roof, as God Moving Over the Face of the Water blasted from my CD, I had a taste of heaven. 

used to listen to this so much, hasn't dated for me - thank you Bill for a great set

Rich's stuff has always been well thought-through, nicely crafted and frequently fun...

Mr. Speaker I would like to revise and amend. After having spent some time listening to a bunch of Moby I can honestly admit now that I do actually like a lot of his stuff.  Granted, some of it is a bit pretentious, but other tracks, like this one, are really good compositions (and, of course, Extreme Ways ;^)  ). I've become somewhat of a fan and found that he's good listening while out for a long ride on the motorcycle. See - people can change :^)

NOBODY MAN!

feat. Basement Jaxx?

I've always assumed that he is the only son of a Hollywood producer with way too much money. Can't think of any other reason why he would have gotten any airplay otherwise.

Beh!
Beh!
Beh!
Beh!

Sure it's pretty listenable... but it really sounds like noodling around in the studio to me.

Yeah I know there was a time when this album was over played, but hearing it again after a couple years hiatus I'm loving it again.

I wasn't aware that he left Moby Grape.

After years of hearing clips of this on NPR during story interludes, I finally figured out what the song was. Duh for me, but I got the album and I really like it.  (Tell me!)

But this encapsulates a moment in time. That time period in our culture when it was released had a certain sound - and this is that sound.

To me, it's coming home - fairly buzzed - from a wonderful luxurient dinner with my wife and a couple I love. Amazing food, a few martinis, great conversation, and we're driving through the dark empty streets in the Southern CA desert with this on the Cd player. Just enjoying the moment, the company, and this soundtrack.
