Music Videos
The official music videos — the visual side of Moby, from the iconic Play-era films to the latest.
56 moments in this segment.
- — Moby - Go (Official Video). ) — Moby's 1991 breakthrough single, whose hit 'Woodtick Mix' was built around a string sample of Angelo Badalamenti's 'Laura Palmer's Theme' from Twin Peaks laid over a rave beat with the shouted 'Go!' hook; it reached UK No. 10 and made him, per Rolling Stone, techno's 'first real DJ superstar.'
- — Moby - Move (You Make Me Feel So Good) (Official Video). ) — Moby, from the early-90s rave era.
- — Moby - 'Feeling So Real' (Official Video). ) — A euphoric rave anthem from Everything Is Wrong (1995) with vocalist Myim Rose; it hit UK No. 30 and No. 1 in Finland, and Spin named the single the best of 1995.
- — Moby - That's When I Reach For My Revolver (Official Video). ) — Moby's cover of the 1981 post-punk song by Mission of Burma (written and sung by Clint Conley), the centerpiece of the abrasive hardcore/punk turn on Animal Rights (1996) that alienated much of his electronica fanbase; the title is NOT pro-gun, riffing on a line about reaching for a revolver at the word 'culture' as a jab at philistinism.
- — Moby - Honey (Official Video). ) — Built around a looped vocal sample of Bessie Jones singing 'Sometimes,' a Georgia Sea Islands song recorded by folklorist Alan Lomax on St. Simons Island in 1959; it was the lead single from Play and among the earliest of Moby's Lomax-sampled tracks.
- — Moby - Run On (Official Video). ) — Uses a gospel sample from 'Run On for a Long Time' by Bill Landford & the Landfordaires, a version of the traditional spiritual in the 'God's Gonna Cut You Down' family.
- — Moby 'Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad?' (Official video) #WhyDoesMyHeart. The plaintive vocal is a pitch-shifted sample of 'He'll Roll Your Burdens Away' by The Banks Brothers & The Greater Harvest Back Home Choir (1963), with Moby flipping the lyric from 'glad' to 'bad'; the Play liner notes deliberately credit a fictional 'Shining Light Gospel Choir,' and the 1999 video is animated around Moby's alter-ego character Little Idiot.
- — Moby - Bodyrock (The Official Video). ) — Samples the refrain of 'Love Rap' by Spoonie Gee & the Treacherous Three, released 1980 on Bobby Robinson's Enjoy Records; Moby has said he lifted it from a mixtape he'd made around 1981 off Mr. Magic's radio show on WBLS.
- — Moby - Natural Blues (Official Video). ) — Built entirely around an a cappella sample of Vera Hall singing 'Trouble So Hard,' a Library of Congress field recording made in 1937 in Livingston, Alabama by John A. Lomax; David LaChapelle's video stars Christina Ricci as an angelic figure who carries an elderly, wheelchair-bound Moby (in old-age makeup) away from a retirement home, a meditation on aging and mortality.
- — Moby - Porcelain (Official Video). ) — Moby wrote it about a woman he loved but felt he 'had no business being romantically involved with,' and he nearly cut it from Play entirely, finding his own production 'mushy' and his vocals 'really weak'; Danny Boyle's 2000 film The Beach used it, a placement Moby credited with turning it into a hit, and he later named his 2016 memoir Porcelain after the song.
- — Moby - 'Porcelain' (Official Video). ) — Moby wrote it about a woman he loved but felt he 'had no business being romantically involved with,' and he nearly cut it from Play entirely, finding his own production 'mushy' and his vocals 'really weak'; Danny Boyle's 2000 film The Beach used it, a placement Moby credited with turning it into a hit, and he later named his 2016 memoir Porcelain after the song.
- — Moby - We Are All Made Of Stars (Official Video). ) — The lead single from 18, Moby wrote it in New York after the September 11 attacks as an intentionally hopeful song rooted in the literal idea that we're made of stardust; Joseph Kahn's video puts Moby in a spacesuit amid satirical celebrity cameos including Verne Troyer, Corey Feldman, Todd Bridges, Gary Coleman, Dave Navarro, Tommy Lee, Sean Bean, Ron Jeremy and Thora Birch.
- — Moby 'Sunday (The Day Before My Birthday)' - Official video. Moby, from Destroyed (2011).
- — Moby - 'Extreme Ways' (Official Video). ) — Released in 2002 as the second single from 18, it became the closing-credits theme for every Bourne film, first chosen by director Doug Liman for The Bourne Identity (2002); Moby re-recorded distinct versions for the sequels ('Bourne's Ultimatum' 2007, 'Bourne's Legacy' 2012, 'Jason Bourne' 2016), the run cementing it as his signature track.
- — Moby - 'In This World' (Official Video). ) — Built on a gospel sample of The Davis Sisters' 'Lord Don't Leave Me' (lead vocal by Jackie Verdell, singing 'Lordy, don't leave me, all by myself'), which Moby paired with swooping synths.

Bush's 2004 re-election, which he framed as about 'the rise of global intolerance and fundamentalism,' with the 'Ama' chorus meant to evoke a universal name for God; it went top 10 across much of Europe.
