I like the new HOney Remixes (not on Part. 1 & 2 I think). Who's this Sharam Jay guy? He's good. The remixes he does for Run on & Honey are nice. I also noticed that Memory Gospel (one of my faves) is listed as 9:03 but doesn't play that long. Weird huh? It only plays to about 6:44 or so (Just like Honey Part 1??).

I know that Moby & SSF are different, but they do share some of the same tracks. That's what I'd said. Does anybody else have Moby or SSF CDs that are on Pinnacle? I wonder if that's a sublicense through Equator for Europe... Chris, the 17th is the UK release and June 1st is the US. Bart, I'll post the answers tomorrow. I'd like to see if anybody answers them first. :) I was asking about foreplay earlier, and now I get to answer my own question! My sister grabbed me a free magazine called UR chicago that has a two page Moby interview in it. I can't transcribe the whole thing right now, but here's a couple excerpts. UR: The track "South Side" is publicized as a "feel-good" song, but I took from it a feeling of danger and doom... Moby: Oh good, that's what it's supposed to do. UR: What is that song really about? Moby: Most of these songs are specific but ambiguous at the same time. The scenario for the song is kind of about - it's going to sound really dumb - but a sort of post apocolyptic bunch of kids out joyriding. It's supposed to be a juxtaposition of sorts. Melodically, it's a very happy song. But for me it's a lot darker. UR: I read a message you wrote on www.moby.org in which you suggest there were some esoteric reasons for calling the album Play. What are they? Moby: Well, on one hand it's that I really like to play. I guess that's not very esoteric, but playing is fun. Whether it's playing music or volleyball or playing with dogs or Monopoly. For example, last weekend I was in Sweden with my ex-girlfriend and we were walking around the city and having a really nice time. But for me, the highlight of the day was we found these old sticks and we were hitting pieces of gravel with the sticks at each other. It was so much fun. My life would be a lot richer if I spent more time playing. - ------- - -Steve- _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.

I wonder if >that's a sublicense through Equator for Europe... Pinnacle is as I have taken it is the Instinct Records over seas label. I have a copy of what your talking about and on the back is a sticker which says made in Great Britain. It is sometimes catagorised as SSF because of its UK background, and has the same track listing. However, the CD is still seen as an Instinct product therefore it has a self titled cover like it's american counterpart. As for the songs, it is 100% wrong, Pinnacle does have the songs for the re-issue of SSF on the cd itself, while the cover only states the song listings for an older version. A friend of mine has a SSF cd with the proper song titles including 2 covers of GO, and a new version of Next is the E (I feel it). Mine is the same cd only with a track listing from an older version of SSF, which they changed right after it came out to make it different from the american release. I assume they didn't bother changing the out side cover of all the cds to save some money. It might be a rare find, to get one but is such a minimal mistake I would hardly classify it as a collectors item. Cdnow even lists the songs for SSF as this: 1. Everything 2. Yeah 3. Electricity 4. Next is the E 5. Mercy 6. Go 7. Help me to belive 8. Have you seen my baby 9. Ah Ah 10. Slight Return 11. Stream 12. Thousand .....but underneath the listings tells you about a re-issue for SSF which contains different songs.....which is what you (and I) have with Pinnacle my friend. Phew! Been a long time since I posted to the list. Trying to keep up though, it's great to see so many new people on here as well. I'll try to keep my posts more current from now.

IT IS THE BEST SHOW ON TELEVISION EVEN IF IT IS ON MTV!!!! this is cool, that MOBY posted to the list. MATT CROCCO and LIAM LYNCH (aka SIFL AND OLLY, respectively) both post to the S&O list (matt ocasionally, liam regularly) ROCK! oh yes, on the S&O list, they are always talking about calling Total Request Live and requesting Sifl And Olly songs on TRL. We've tried to do this a few times before, but they nbever played them, probly cuz they arent actually real videos. But Moby has real videos, so why dont we request them? Why don't we go to the Total Request website one day and just keep voting for the "Run On" video for like an hour or so each? I'm pretty sure if everyone on the list, or at least most of us did that, it would surely get on. okay? isnt that cool? then more people would see Moby and get PLAY when it comes out. also, has anyone heard the new song "Here With Me" by DIDO? there's one part in it that sounds a LOT like some certain song of LITTLE IDIOT (i cant say which one, Rod Richardson, WPKN DJ, is still borrowing my copy of AR/LI, AMbient, and the Blur Remix cd... plus my KLF tape, snd that KNitting Factory compilation...) anyway, if someone hears this, remark on it ok? the song is on the CD that comes with the new issue of CMJ NMM, which for some reason has DJ RAP on the cover. bye!!!! === "I want to go to Scotland, I could be so bad I want to wear a micro-mini kilt, of plaid." -King Missile >>>>>>>>>>PAUL<<<<<<<<<< _____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

In the past few months we have seen Adidas run an ad campaign which included Moby, Fatboy Slim, and one or two others that I didn't recognize. If you go back into the archives at Moby.org, a bit before you got here their was this discussion about the ad, and what word was it now--oh yeah 'sell-out'. A continous theme here at Mobility.
