    "comment": "Moby said, \"'Bodyrock' was the song both of my managers tried to get me to take off the record. They thought it was really tacky. They thought it sounded like a Fatboy Slim ripoff — which I guess it kind of did. I like it because the hip-hop sample was off the first mixtape I ever got, maybe in 1981, off of the Mr. Magic Show on WBLS. The guitar is directly inspired by What we all want by Gang of Four. And I thought it was kind of funny to have an orchestral chorus on what is essentially a hip-hip song.\"\n--\nAlso sampling Spoonie Gee's \"Love Rap.\"",
