Re: speaking of moby...

Change my mind, sort of.  After another listen have decided "18" to be 
absolutely brilliant (although surely not quite as brilliant as "Play").  
The music is ethereal to be sure, but the vocals are well grounded and tell 
an interesting story if you can piece it all together.  There is some gospel 
on here as well which probably helps the grounding process.  FWIW.
