Moby

Richard Melville Hall (born September 11, 1965), better known by his stage name Moby, is an American singer-songwriter, musician, DJ and photographer. He is well known for his electronic music, vegan lifestyle, and support of animal rights. Moby has sold over 20 million albums worldwide.AllMusic considers him "one of the most important dance music figures of the early 1990s, helping bring the music to a mainstream audience both in the UK and in America".

Moby gained attention in the early 1990s with his electronic dance music work, which experimented in the techno and breakbeat hardcore genres. With his fifth studio album, the electronica and house music-influenced Play, he gained international success. Originally released in mid-1999, the album sold 6,000 copies in its first week, and it re-entered the charts in early 2000 and became an unexpected hit, producing eight singles and selling over 10 million copies worldwide. Moby followed the album in 2002 with 18, which was also successful, selling over 5 million copies worldwide and receiving mostly positive reviews, though some criticized it for being too similar to Play.

    Famous quotes by Moby:

    "I don't really trust men who claim they are not interested in porn."
    "I'm like a monk with a taste for hookers."
    "I'm investing in a company that has patented wallet technology that will deodorize currency. That way people won't have to deal with money that smells funny."
    "Can you imagine how much sex that man has had in his life? It boggles the mind to even consider it"
    "We were totally destroyed, ... We're planning to put them in another facility until we can rebuild."
    "I personally donated $2,500 to the Red Cross yesterday. Normally I don't like to tell how much I donated and to whom, but I felt sometimes it's good to share info in the hopes that others will feel inspired to donate whatever they can."
    "It's their security blanket, ... We feed them … fish, vitamins and medicine."
    "I see 'Ahab's Wife' as offering an alternative vision to"
    "The little characters I draw are very simple, very naive, and I guess I am too in a lot of ways,"
    "Three of these eight dolphins were born at the facility and had never been in the wild, compacting our concern for their well being, ... Once we realized the dolphins had been swept out to sea during the hurricane, we feared that they had died. We are just thrilled that they have stayed together during the past couple of weeks."
    "The way I work on music is that I go into my studio, and I start playing music, and I see what happens, and... I never think about it."

    In my dreams I'm dying all the time
    As I wake its kaleidoscopic mind
    I never meant to hurt you
    I never meant to lie
    So this is goodbye
    This is goodbye
    Tell the truth you never wanted me
    Tell me
    In my dreams I'm jealous all the time
    As I wake I'm going out of my mind
