Not out of embaressment or anything, but I think it would label him as that "gay elecronica guy" or whatever label people put on him and would detract from the music. He's done a really good job avoiding labels thus far and I don't think he would pin one on himself. But that's just my opinion. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 28 Dec 1999 14:39:57 EST From: Cynax@aol.com Subject: Re: (mobility) Is Moby gay? let's not forget that Moby is a religous person, perhaps he meant on his knees in prayer, or praise, whatever the case his music will always be inspiring to me ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 28 Dec 1999 15:37:43 EST From: CuTeBuMpEr@aol.com Subject: Re: (mobility) Is Moby gay? you know thats a good point :) ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 28 Dec 1999 13:20:29 -0800 (PST) From: Hotel Detective Phizzo Jobson <techno_gpig@yahoo.com> Subject: (mobility) JOHAN JAATINEN where are you??? sorry to interrupt but ARE YOU STILL ON THIS LIST JOHAN JAATINEN??? i tried to email you but it said yr address doesnt exist!?!? i finally dubbed those tapes! plus i have some xmas $$$ so i can send you some for those KLF cds! are you there? i got the package all ready and everything!!!! i have yr address but i need to know if you're still there and everything... hello???? again sorry..... bye!

It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if Moby is gay or not. It is of no more importance than the colour of his hair (flesh coloured, I think), his eyes, or the colour of his skin. All that matters is who Moby is, not what he is, and who he is is Moby. So lets leave it at that. For all I care he could be any colour, any religious belief - though I do find that music made by extreme rightwingers or people with padeophile/etc. tendencies is unacceptable as I cannot in any way support or fund the activities of such people willingly. To ask if he's gay is irrelevant and discriminatory. Are you? and your answer to that, as Mobys could be, will probably be - "Who cares?"

My tastes expanded greatly and my > appreciation for music grows daily. It was a great year for me as about all of my favorite artists released new CD's in 99. And most lived up to my hopes and then some (with the exception of George Michael's sleeping pill of a CD). It was a great year because after years of waiting I FINALLY got to see the Pet Shop Boys return to America and perform live. I NEVER thought I'd have that opportunity, I missed their earlier US tours. 3 shows in 3 nights, from Chicago, home to Detroit to Toronto it was an awesome experience. But the biggest reason it was a great year was because I finally discovered the genius of Moby. Prior to this year the only Moby recordings I owned were the Pet Shop Boys remix of "Miserblism" he did and the "Revolver" single for the Rollo and Sister Bliss mix (as a collector of Faithless I also collect Rollo's mixes, he's awesome.) Well I picked up "Honey", again for the Rollo mix and didn't think much else of it. Then Chuck Horn, God Bless him, educated me again. Last year it was Faithless he introduced me to. He has a 2 hour weekly "Electronica" show on local public radio. I tape it every Friday and listen to it during the week. What should I hear but "Oh Lawdy..." the opening of "Natural Blues". The song and it's beauty mesmerized me. Next came another thing of beauty I would find out was called "Porcelein" and I found out it came from the new CD "Play" by Moby. I instantly had to have this CD and it has astounded me ever since. Thank God I got it in time because shortly after Moby came to Detroit on the Play Tour and I said "I have to get tickets to this". My brother and I went to St. Andrews Hall and again I was blown away and it blew him away too. He was hooked. Since then, we've both been running like mad to get any and every Moby CD, remix, etc we can find. Record stores, online stores, Ebay, I'm making up for all those last years of not knowing this man's musical genius. As a fan of another musical genius, Prince, who has become disenchanted with his downward spiral how nice to be introduced, however late, to new genius. Moby tore it up live and it is always live that is the true test. I was a believer. I regret the years I've missed but thank goodness I found him, better late than never. As if this wasn't long enough :) my top 5 CD's of the year: #5 Dido "No Angel"- Rollo's sister steps out from vocal duty with Faithless and delivers an album of beauty helped by her brother's wonderful production touches. This young lady should be huge if things are fair. Jewel who? She wishes she could make music like this. That "Here With Me" wasn't a hit is one of the biggest crimes of 1999. #4 Prince (no I'm not calling him that stupid symbol) "Rave Un2 The Joy Fantastic" I had given up on Prince. I've been a huge fan and collector since 1984, sticking with him through all his crap, his stupid name change, his stupid PR stunts but he had become too much. From suing fans and websites to babbling incoherently about numerous topics to shoving his religious beliefs down peoples throats (something Moby does not do, he says what he believes but doesn't try to force it on you) it had become too much to bear. Combine that with the crap product he'd been putting out and it was over for me. But then I got a promo CD from someone at Arista of this a week before release and couldn't believe my ears. There are still a few clunkers on here but overall, it is the master back again showing all these modrn R&B HACKS who wish they had the talent Prince has in his pinky who the true musical genius is. You can keep your R Kelly's, Maxwell's, D'angelo's, Babyface's and all the rest. None of them would be here if not for Prince, and they are all Prince wannabees. I'd like to see D'angelo come up with something like "Sun Moon and Stars", simply amazing. #3 Everything But The Girl "Temperamental" After loving the mixes EBTG had from the last few releases, my dream was a full length CD exploring electronic sounds with Tracey's heavenly voice. My wish come true, stellar from track 1 to track 10. "Lullaby For Clubland" NEEDS to be a single. #2 Pet Shop Boys "Nightlife" 2 tracks produced by Rollo are epic dance stompers, some gorgeous string work by Craig Armstrong and Neil and Chris have my favorite CD of theirs since "Behavior". #1 Moby "Play" Need I say anything else? Nothing even came close in 99 for me, this CD was a masterwork. Add in the awesome B-sides and you have even more great material from the Little Idiot, just a great year for Moby all around. I love it when I put on a CD and my jaw just drops for an hour, it doesn't happen often enough but it certainly did here. I've rambled enough, MikeA ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 28 Dec 1999 15:04:04 -0800 (PST) From: Hotel Detective Phizzo Jobson <techno_gpig@yahoo.com> Subject: (mobility) we're number 4our!! yeah, in both USA TODAY and Entertainment Weekly, PLAY is #4our best album of the year! yay! altho i have to say, if NIN or RATM werent as popular as they were PLAY would easily be 1ne, on every survey...well ok maybe BECK would be #1ne. (well except EW, their 1ne was...Robbie Williams?@?@) of course if moby was more popular then RATM or NIN the world would probly be a different place huh? even if NIN or RATM were just simply NOT AS POPULAR..... whatever. PLAY is number one, sez me. altho, EW praised Luscious Jackson (altho just "Ladyfingers" not the whole album which was almost equally as phat) and Beta Band, so thats cool too. altho in the TV section it praised the Simpsons, but Futurama or S&O werent mentioned anywhere. well, who gives about what critics think anyway. hmmm..... hey did anyone see the new Weird Al AL TV special? they played the Jon Spencer video that Al directed, and Bjork's "I Miss You" (I still hate that video, i hate Ren & Stimpy and anything to do with them, but the song rocks and Bjork rocks and its cool that Al played Bjrok, MTV never plays her ;) and a bunch of Al stuff! yay! i like the Michael Stipe "interview" the first thing Stipe said was "My name is Bjork"! and al said "No it isn't"! awesome! right, i better go. bye! "That was the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, playing a song you will definitely not find on my new album "Running With Scissors" or my new home video "Weird Al Yankovic Live!""
