It was tagged on to the end because I love music that's equal parts disconcerting and beautiful - you can get caught up in a sense of beauty, but also it's unsettling. It's why I like a lot of late 19th Century classical music like Debussy's 'Prélude à l'après-midi d'un Faune.' I know it's beautiful but it also makes me feel uncomfortable. 'My Weakness' is such a strange piece of music. There's no drums and it's this odd African choir loop - I sampled it 12 years ago, I don't remember what it's from. What was most gratifying for me when When Play became successful was when people liked the more obscure songs. Gillian Anderson used 'The Sky Is Broken' in an X-Files episode.
