레이브 컬처의 선구자. 펑크 록 서바이버. 수퍼스타 DJ. 혁신적 테크노의 거물. 영화 음악 작곡가. 어워드 수상자, 환경운동가. 정치 개혁가. 동물 애호가… 등 수많은 수식어를 갖고 있는 일렉트로니카 씬의 파이오니어 모비가 드디어 우리 곁에 돌아왔다
모비의 새 앨범 [HOTEL]은 무려 1천 만장 이상의 앨범 판매고를 기록하며 전세계 댄스 음악의 판도를 단숨에 바꿔 놓은, 1999년작 [PLAY]와 400만장의 앨범 판매고를 올린, 2002년작 [18] 앨범 이후 3년 만에 발표하는 작품이다. 뉴욕에 있는 모비의 자택 스튜디오에서 제작된 이번 앨범은 모비가 대부분의 트랙에서 보컬을 담당했으며 여성 보컬리스트 로라 던과 드러머 스콧 프라세토가 부분적으로 참여하였다. 모비의 작품 중 유일하게 보컬 샘플링 트랙이 포함되지 않은 앨범으로 록과 소울, 디스코, 애시드 하우스 팬으로서의 그의 취향을 모두 보여준다. 목가적인 분위기의 <HOTEL INTRO>를 필두로, 짧고 강하게 맞아떨어지는 드럼과 피아노 연주가 귀에 감기는 <RAINING AGAIN>, 소울적 보컬과 록적인 곡 구성이 결합하여 풍요로운 분위기를 자아내는 <BEAUTIFUL>를 지나, 모비의 우상인 뉴 오더를 연상시키는 첫 번째 싱글 <LIFT ME UP>과 조우하게 된다. 이 곡은 일렉트로니카와 록 음악의 완벽한 조화를 이루는 트랙으로 맹목적인 군중심리로 인해 발생될 수 있는 위험성에 대한 비판을 담고 있다.그 외에도 뉴 오더의 곡을 리메이크한, 로라 던의 부드러운 보컬이 돋보이는 서정적인 발라드 곡 <TEMPTATION>, 데이빗 보위에 대한 오마쥬를 담고 있는 <SPIDER>, 몰아치는 일랙트로닉-디스코의 질주감을 담고 있는 <VERY>, 모비의 미니얼하고 딥한 퇴폐적 미학을 엿볼 수 있는 <I LIKE IT>, 특유의 감성적인 신서사이저 스트링으로 가득한 <LOVE SHOULD>, 그리고 고요한 앰비언트 사운드의 히든 트랙 <35 MINUTE>까지 총 15곡의 트랙이 담겨있다. 전체적으로 드라마틱한 곡 구성과 리드미컬한 일렉트로닉 비트, 록 음악의 다이내믹함과 고급스러운 멜로디, 그리고 발라드적 감성이 함께 녹아 들어가 조화를 이루고 있는 그의 천재성이 빛을 발한 작품이다. .... ....
Never know but nothing less Couldn't see that I have guessed Couldn't see couldn't stay away I never even stopped to dream and That Id see anything and The world is coming out so cold Oh and it's raining again Light on your car light bullets on tin Oh and its raining again Open the door and pulling me in Nothing here but nothing less Cold heart is stuck in this Couldn't say the kindest words we knew Everything I tried to say but no one listens anyway I had to give up everything I knew Oh and it's raining again Light on your car light bullets on tin Oh and its raining again Open the door and pulling me in Oh and it's raining Raining again Oh and it's raining Raining again Nothing here but nothing less Everything we both regret Couldn't say the kindest words we knew Cause it was winter time and We wanted some more time and We watched the girls try something knew We didn't even stopped to see that That It was breaking me and the world is coming out so cold What you want you couldn't get you Couldn't wait for something less you had to give up everything you knew Oh and it's raining again Light on your car light bullets on tin Oh and its raining again Open the door and pulling me in Oh and it's raining again Light on your car light bullets on tin Oh and its raining again Open the door and pulling me in Sadness like water raining down Raining down Sadness like water raining down Raining down Sadness like water raining down Raining down Sadness like water raining down Raining down Sadness like water raining down Raining down Sadness like water raining down Raining down
Plain talking Plain talking Take us so far take us so far Broken down cars broken down cars Like stronger old stars like stronger old stars Plain talking Plain talking Served us so well served us so well Travelled through hell travelled through hell We know how it felt we know how it felt

Heaven A gateway to hope Just like a feeling I need, it's no joke
And though it hurts me To see you this way They traded by words I'd never heard To hard to say them
Up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground Tonight I think I walk alone to find my soul desire to go home [2x]
Oh it's the last time, it's the last time Oh it's the last time, it's the last time
Each way I turn I know I'll always try To break the circle That has been placed round me
From time to time I find our lost Semeaning That was urgent
To myself I don't believe
Oh, up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground Tonight I think I walk alone to find my soul desire to go home [2x]
Oh it's the last time, it's the last time Oh it's the last time, it's the last time
And I have never met anyone quite like you before And I've never met anyone quite like you before [2x]
And I've never met anyone quite like you before Oh, up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground Tonight I think I walk alone, to find my soul desire to go home
And I never met anyone quite like you before Up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground Tonight I think I walk alone, to find my soul desire to go home
Up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground Tonight I think I walk alone to find my soul desire to go home [2x]
Babe Oh dream about me Lie On the phone to me Tell me no truth If it hurts bad There's enough in my life To make me so sad Just dream about Colour fills our lives Just dream about Some one else tonight Babe Oh dream about me On the phone You're talking quietly I wanna be yours I want you be mine A red skives For long time So dream about us When you're alone Just dream about How I will let go Hand
Hand
Babe Oh dream about me Lie On the phone to me Tell me no truth If it hurts bad There's enough in my life To make me so sad Just dream about Colour fills our lives Just dream about Some one else tonight Just dream about Colour fills our song Just dream about How I will let go
All that we needed was right The fresh hold is breaking tonight
Open to everything happy and sad Seeing the good when it's all going bad Seeing the sun when I can't really see Hoping the sun will at least look at me
Focus on everything better today All that I need and I never could say Hold on people that slipping away Hold on to this while it's slipping away
All that we needed tonight Are people who love us and like I know how it feels to meant Oh and we leave here, the seas
Open to everything happy and sad Seeing the good when it's all going bad Seeing the sun when I can't really see Hoping the sun will at least look at me
Focus on everything better today All that I need and I never could say Hold on people that slipping away Hold on to this while it's slipping away
So long So long
Open to everything happy and sad Seeing the good when it's all going bad Seeing the sun when I can't really see Hoping the sun will at least look at me
Focus on everything better today All that I need and I never could say Hold on to people that slipping away [14x]
이 노래 올리려고 사놨다는 사실도 까먹고 있었음.
산다는 게 뭔지 참-_-ㅋ 오늘도 12시간 꼬박 일했네. 조낸 미친듯이 일했다.
점심 시간에 오예스 몇 개 까먹으면서...
열심히 일한 당신, 떠나라~ 라는데 그건 CF에서나 가능한 말이더군.
언제 또 떠나냐, 언제 ㅠ.ㅠ
무슨 통계같은 거 내라는데 숫자 보기가싫어서 눈물이 났다....
