about the Fatboy Slim / Radiohead comment ... you do realize that he pre-dates either of them by several years, right?

maybe doing "Last Night" was a good thing - like, even though it was pretty much just "old moby again" it kind of put his mind on reset and now it's like he's back at the "early-mid-period" ('93-'97) of his career again.

I mean, remember - his career was essentially OVER until "Honey". I remember reading several times that his agents/whoever were pushing him more as a "soundtrack artist" than an actual performer (think Vangelis) ... plus he said that he was preparing himself to basically go back to school

and despite the actually good songs on the album - I don't remember "I Like to Score" being very big... probably b/c it was just a collection of stuff for soundtracks, and didn't have a central album "vibe"

man... maybe I should put "Animal Rights" and those albums back on my iPod, I haven't listened to them in ages - if you ignore the (boring) tracks like "Soft" & "Face It" it's quite good (although, I'll never understand why there's three versions of that album) - plus I'd say "Alone" and "Living" are two of my favorite songs... pretty much ever

on a side note - anyone remember the movie "Permanent Midnight"? It came out in '98 and had "Honey" on the soundtrack...
