Moby — Why Does my Heart Feel so Bad

“Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad?” was written in ’92 as a really bad techno song. Just mediocre, generic techno. At some point I rediscovered the song and I tried doing it considerably slower, tried to make it mournful and romantic. My manager Barry talked me into including “Porcelain” and my other manager Eric talked me into including “Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad?” It became a big hit in Germany. “Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad?” for some reason struck a nerve in Germany and became a big hit single over there. I thought that was as far as any success for Play was gonna go. (c) RollingStone.com
