Moby - Everything Was Beautiful, And Nothing Hurt

Moby's new album finds him returning to his orchestral, soul, trip-hop and gospel roots, exploring spirituality, individuality and the brokenness of humanity.

Lead single Like a Motherless Child, features LA soulstress Raquel Rodriguez, and is a re-work of a well-known spiritual, with its original in the slavery of the American South. The track describes the void left when one feels separated from a parent, higher power or similar guiding force. Over the years this powerful song has been reinterpreted by the likes of Odetta, Lena Home, Mahalia Jackson and Van Morrison.
