Honey chords by Moby

“My friend Dimitri Ehrlich, who is a music journalist here in New York, got this Alan Lomax box set. He had listened to it and wasn’t that interested in it and he gave it to me, and I heard all those great a cappellas. I wrote “Honey” in about 10 minutes. My girlfriend at the time really liked it. And that surprised me because she didn’t really like my music. Mario Caldalto Jr, the Beastie Boys producer, agreed to mix “Honey.” Keep in mind, at this point, I was a has-been and I knew I was a has-been. I was hanging out at Max Fish and Mars Bar and Motor City drinking with the few remaining people in New York who would still hang out with me. At this time the Beasties had Hello Nasty, which was doing incredibly well, and I just couldn’t believe that Mario Caldato, Jr. was willing to work with me. It came out as a single and did nothing. I think it got played once or twice and disappeared”. (c) RollingStone.com Mixed by Mario Caldato Jr. Features samples from the Bessie Jones recording Sometimes.
