this is a crazy music video moby and paul yates did a few years back- i think it's the funniest he's ever done! moby's playing the keyboards in this crazy wig and sunglasses, pretending to be german.

Nice one! The bit with the high-kicks and jumping on the keyboards (0:50) is worth it.

I know the music is supposed to sound cheesy, but i like it more than 80% of Moby's last two albums and half of Play, too. I was just watching the DVD from "18 B-Sides" the other night, and there's a fake advert with Moby as Yevgeny the Juice Guy, and the backing track, pure rave cheese, is better than the Cd proper! imho.

I'm pretty sure it's Moby + Paul Yates. It was released on a 7" single only, and the other side is the song "The Ballad Of Paul Yates". And it has his picture on it:

There's even an official Schaumgummi website:

The whole thing is a joke.
