Lord, I Want to Be Up in My Heart

I went to Glastonbury some years ago, in fact it’s probably ten years ago… and despite having returned their on numerous other years, it was the year i saw Moby that stood out. At that time he wasn’t a massive superstar, and played the 8pm set on the second stage. Little was I to know he was to be bigger than any other act there… six foot taller in fact.

For those of you who have never attended, imagine Glastonbury as a smelly field, but imagine it too as a place that weird moments can just lift you up and take you somewhere you never imagined. I’ll admit I’d had a few beers (and nothing else), but when Moby played his final tune of the night… the sun was setting directly opposite the stage. The crowd weren’t lively, they were stood watching in amazement at the beautiful melody that Moby creates again and again. Repeating himself, but seemingly never repeating himself.

Not the biggest hit of all, but I’d heartily recommend you put this on your alarm clock, and let it wake you up for a week. You’ll feel truly alive.

Regards as always,

    An excerpt from the actual gig I saw, it still makes me tingle to this day;

    Funny how it seems sunnier in my memories.
