Oooh, you're right about the strings. There's no substitute for the real thing.

Please use real strings the next time Moby ;-)

Orenda Fink and Maria Taylor from Azure Ray, also RP artists. They have toured with Moby.

Sadly one of the very few decent tracks on this album. Only saving grace is Sinead's vocals.

Eerie to say the least.

"I'm an artist. You can tell, because I have a great record collection. I snip my favorite pieces from my records, & piece them together over a beat. I played them to intoxicated people in clubs. They decided I was a musical genius.

"Wait. Maybe they said my shoes were a musical genius. I really can't remember."

this is terrible. he could at the very least have sprung for an actual string quartet instead of that horrible synthesized attempt. yuck.

He stole this style from This Mortal Coil.

This song, ah hell .......

I'd say that I hate this tune, but its plodding dullness has rendered me completely unable to muster any strong feelings with regard to it at all...

That Moby sure has a high voice.

I just got up and am drinking coffee to wake up so that I can do some work, and this song is boring the shit out me!!

BRING OUT YOUR DEAD!! BRING OUT YOUR DEAD!!

This song makes me have a love hate relationship with Moby

BO-RING.

Very pretty - the synth strings kind of grate on me a bit - real strings would have been better, but otherwise very nice.

Well, it does take awhile to compose, produce and distribute an album, y'know ...

Also, just a shot in the dark here, but if Moby is anything like me (we both have a 9/11 birthday), the grief took on an extra, personal shade. Having your birthday turned into a national day of mourning is kinda like losing a little bit of your identity.

Hope that as the years wear on, you're able to listen to this with a different set of ears (but still your own!)

Is it just me or does the vocalist in this song sound just like the female singer from the Magnetic Fields? Anyone know if it's the same girl?

Moby made a great escape when Eminem was wanting to fight him. Personally, I think Moby could have taken him one on one, but Eminem has his huge posse. WORD!!!

Oh yeah, "months." Months is such a long time to get over a travesty like 9/11. /sarcasm

i like this song

Pretty emotional for someone named apathy. ;)

I think this is quite lovely. I really like the eerie harmony and the way it plays off the dual vocals. Nice.

Spooky.

I would say this sounds like an identical copy of many This Mortal Coil songs...

beautiful song

Here's your lyrics: http://www.leoslyrics.com/listlyrics.php?hid=pi5FWWZZdN4%3D

I was really dissapointed with this entire album. It was months after 9/11, and I'd grieved enough. Most folks put this depressing garbage in a diary. Keep it to yourself, Moby. I sincerely hope your next effort provides me with a better listening experience.

Just my opinion.
