Moby ‘Best Of’ - Interview

Q20: Is it possible to say why tracks like "Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad?", "Natural Blues" and "Porcelain" pull at the heartstrings so much?

MOBY: When I'm working on music I'm just trying to make music that I'll respond to emotionally and if I can write a piece of music that pulls at my heartstrings, I guess that increases the chances that it might pull at other people's heartstrings.

Q21: One of the biggest hits from "Play" was "Porcelain". Can you tell us anything about the background to this song?

MOBY: The song "Porcelain" is just a very introspective, very wistful song about loving someone and being in a relationship with them, but knowing that the relationship isn't going to last, but not based on any animosity or rancour you might have for that person, but just based on an understanding that you shouldn't be in a relationship with them, so it's a wistful, mournful song about loving someone, but having to break up with them anyway.
